Celtic fc to be stripped of title as Ranger can replace him in days after ‘cheat’ scandal.

Celtic FC will be stripped of their title because Rangers can replace them in days following the ‘cheat’ controversy.
The buzzword in Scottish football lately has been ‘title stripping’. I’m specifically speaking to Rangers in regard to an isolated appeal that resulted in success for HMRC after two failures.
As a result, the media has gone into a frenzy, with everyone and his dog having something to say about the incident, with more than one ‘journalist’ once again exploiting Rangers to advance their own careers and agenda.
However, the sheer outpouring of froth from Scottish football supporters in general has been the most noticeable, with practically every fan not of an Ibrox type hopping on their sanctimonious soap box and demanding the Big Bad Rangers be freed of all.

None of these groups has stood out more than Celtic fans, with Parkhead’s finest grabbing on to this defeat in the courts like moths to a flame and committing moral outrage, demanding that all titles won during this period be returned to them, or at the very least, removed.

One wonders why. Why have Celtic fans gone crazy, despite the fact that so many of its prominent figures disagree? Martin O’Neil, Chris Sutton, Paul Lambert, Kenny Dalglish, Jackie McNamara, and even high-profile ex-SPFL chairman and Celtic fan Roger Mitchell have all completely dismissed the idea.

Could it be that a certain scandal in the distant past, the biggest scandal in Scottish football history, remains a blight on Celtic’s history and they are using Rangers’ misfortune to try to ‘beat’ it in the outrage stakes? Could many of these fans, so ashamed of what happened within Celtic Boys’ Club all those years ago, be trying to make Rangers’ tax woes seem so much worse than the crime committed within their own halls?

It really does seem pretty bizarre that a tax case could cause so much fury among said fans, when their figureheads could not really give so much as a damn about it (you know, ex-players and managers who actually won/lost stuff during this period).

Of course, this is conjecture on my (and many of my peers) part. Maybe these supporters really do just feel football injustice that they were not good enough to beat Rangers on the pitch so want to invalidate any success from Govan during that time.

Or maybe they wish the biggest scandal in Scottish football to suddenly not be as big a deal.

After all, tax issues are much more serious than the health, wellbeing and futures of children, are they not?
