Will Celtic go into the Europa League now? Otherwise their season is pretty much over, they'll win the league at a canter. Suppose they can try to win both domestic Cups.

Hull through in the Europa league meaning that our league match is going to be shifted to the Sunday I think?

I thought Aberdeen were unlucky to lose 3-2 to Real Sociedad, were the better team for large parts or the game, although they ran out of steam with 15-20 minutes to go.

I would appeal that if I was them. If he didn't play in the suspended games then the punishment seems very harsh.

Would be amazed if they don't appeal tbh.

I was going to say the same thing. He didn't play any of the 3 games he was suspended for, so to kick them out for that seems harsh.

Wonder if the same punishment would apply if it were the other way round?

It is a tricky one. They have clearly acted in good faith and left him out of three matches and then played him. But there has clearly been a misunderstanding when it comes to rules and regulations regarding registering players.

Disgraceful decision by UEFA.  He only came on in the 88th minute, Celtic were dead and buried by then.

Looking for the Serie A fixture list and came across this article:

Serie A Fixture Criteria

I also love the symmetry of their fixture list. For example, all of the clubs that play on 31/8 will play each other again on 25/1 but reversed home team.

Rules are rules, I suppose, but I can definitely see where you are coming from.

I think that's the same here... I only realised that a couple of years ago!
