Hmmmm, fair enough but the bhoys better shape up fast or they'll be heading back out again in the next round
Celtic have been very fortunate again, the same thing happened them a few years ago when Swiss side Sion beat them in a play off and were thrown out for using ineligible players
Very harsh punishment on Legia IMO. It appears that they were aware that the player in question had a suspension so they didn't register him for the previous round against us in the belief that that would serve as the suspension. However that wasn't the case but given that the player only came on for the last 2 minutes surely some common sense should have prevailed and a fine imposed. Just to rub it in, Celtic get a nice draw for the play-off round.
Harsh decision
Legia kinda cost themselves by not registering the player but debrecen got away with it so it is harsh on them but mistakes were made
so so lucky :) nice to see them do well but the will get destroyed in the CL if they play like this
Champions league is a joke made up format to make money
what happened to just real champions(european cup) one team from a single league
what happened to celtic is a joke decided by suits who havent a clue about football!
