It's a HUGE error the guy shouldn't have even been on the bench but they made a mistake and have been punished with a match forfeit.
The major irony is the standard punishment is the same score line that sends Celtic through.
Totally.

The permarage from the hard of thinking has been amazingly funny as they claim that Legia have been harshly treated but had Legia scored either of those penalties then they would still have went through.

You got hammered 6-1. Every decent fan will be hoping you get stuffed in any matches you play in the competition. It's embarrassing to even try and come out and say you deserve to go through.

If it was any team apart from Celtic you wouldn't give it a second thought but as it is Celtic the permarage is ripping you apart.

If you play a suspended player you take the punishment that goes with it.

Can't believe Morton go and get relegated when the Championship looks to be the best it will probably ever be.
Chairman's fault cut the wage bill and asked our better players to come back for less money then replaced them with cheap foreign players. Kept an average manager in a job too long, replaced him with Kenny Shiels when it was too late and took risks signing guys that were well past their best in novo and O'Connor, overpaid for Rowan Vine

We've done the same this summer went for the cheap option, I said we could get the play offs after going to Ayr yesterday that will be relegation playoffs

He is fairly banging in the goals just now, for Selkirk!

According to Legia owner Celtic aren't behaving in accordance with fair play and wants the club to pull out of the Champions League and let them play Maribor.

He is not happy that we're ignoring their calls.

Uefa aren't also apparently adhering to their own rules and they will appeal while also calling on the rules to be changed.

Surely Hearts are aiming to win the Championship not automatic promotion Mr Tanner.

Somehow I don't think he will be on here talking about losing 2-1. He wants to talk about Celtic.

Unless I've missed something, it's the same thing.

It is - but there is only the one automatic spot - for the champions.

Rangers are going for the championship yet Hearts are deemed to be going for automatic promotion.

I would assume they are both going for the championship.

Fans of The Rangers are contacting the SPFL and SFA to appeal todays result.

They've looked at paperwork and are claiming Ally McCoist has been incorrectly registered as a manager.

Seems Fojut has had a cracking debut for Dundee United.

He was the defender Celtic signed on a pre contract in 2012 before he done his knee in.

Why should we have any contact with them?

What hapened is between Legia and UEFA, it is none of our business.

Great start for United. Strange hearing the commentator using the words 'good' and 'defending' in reference to the united defence.

Still on my polish travels went to lechia gdansk v lech Poznan today in the spanking PGE arena in gdansk. Barry Douglas ex dundee United came on for Poznan, decent standard both these teams would probably be too good for the spl.

Shows you how much we are being ripped off for football in this country, a good seat cost me the grand total of about 9 quid drinking at your seat etc

What is the average monthly wage there? Cost of a meal and a few drinks in a decent restaurant?

You can't just compare it to the price over here if their earnings and cost of living are much lower.

Drinks are pretty cheap I was about 1.50 a pint early, decent food is not that much cheaper than here, travel is dirt cheap.

I suspect it would be pretty low the monthly wage, you would not think so by the way women are dressed

Final port of call is krakow for a few days where I expect it to be a bit dearer

It was to me! The Hearts fans were chanting "Is this a library?" and "You let your club die" to no response, it was a strange atmosphere really, I'd expected them to be up for it, the home end to be a wall of ugly noise, but nope, silence for the most part. I was ambivalent about the whole newco/sevco thing before, but I'm not really anymore- because you're not telling me that was the famous Glasgow Rangers. They were shite.

The whole plan to win the SPFL in 2017 looks laughably hollow now.

The only way to win automatic promotion is to win the league.

It wasn't a great game, probably a draw deserved for both teams. It's a very long season though but at least it is interesting.

Well I'll be talking about the time the Hibs goalkeeper scored a goal for a long time. Never seen anything like it.

Hibs played really well first half and could have been 4 or 5 up. Second half we were rotten and Livi without troubling us too much could have sneaked a point. They hit bar twice. Like the look of Stanton, El Alagui will be a real asset for us.

Also told all my Hearts mates they'd win today, could not understand why Rangers were 8/11. We were pretty much on top before red card the other night. I actually hope it's Hibs and Hearts that go up. I think this will be a very competitive league. Looking forward to it.

On the subject of Legia v Celtic, irrespective of scoreline at time the rules are the rules. I do believe a play off in neutral venue may be a better solution. But Legia weren't thrown out, Celtic went 'through' on away goals due to being given a 3-0 win.
