never mind who you support or why, and for that matter who you hate. The only solution to the leagues this season is to declare the season void.
It's fair to all those chasing titles and those fighting relegation.
By all means the payout should stand for their current positions because of the efforts put in to get their place and for entertaining fans come rain, hail or snow.
any other decision would fall on fantasy, what if's and making assumptions, based on what? who can forecast injuries for example, which can and often do change results. Sorry, I stick with my opinion, AND VOID with a new season yet to be announced and ONLY after the virus has been eliminated.

UEFA have stated null and void isn't an option.
UEFA have also stated handing out early titles that haven't been earned isn't an option. Yet.
There preference is all leagues to be played to a finish with fans. If not behind closed doors.

Heading down the award of titles etc road which would forever be tainted no matter what anybody said.

So VOID season, but still pay out for where a team is in the league currently? / why would they do that? if its void all the monies get pulled and divided equally amongst all the teams, as for Europe, if its a VOID htne all teams get put in hat to who goes, now that's fair is it not, or are you thinking fair is if we get WHAT WE WANT, if you are really wanting fairness be equal in what's you ask for. not biased in anyway as for effort all the teams have shown effort so again all in pot as equals.

Tainted titles, is not a word we should be using, its that old adage of pot kettle etc etc,

Pubes12, UEFA have said NO European places for voided leagues so don't know what you are bumping your gums about putting all the names in a hat to see who gets to play in Europe next season?
They have also challenged the Belgium league for awarding an early unearned title to Bruges and are talking about banning them from European competition next season. The same could happen to Celtic if they are awarded an early unearned tainted title. ðŸ‘.

The problem Ritchie is that is not the only solution and your solution is not even being considered.
Celtic are the only club in Scotland who can financially wait for as long as it takes. We have £35 million in the bank and credit with the bank as long as London Road. It’s all the other clubs who want the season finished now and I include Hearts in that because Hearts couldn’t survive until the end of the year for prize money. Hearts want no relegation and league reconstruction.
That leaves your club. You don’t want the season to start back up in September and finish in November because you can’t afford that conclusion. Your club want null and void to paper over the cracks and to forget last season ever happened because all your eggs fell out your basket.
Everybody at Celtic if they had the choice would want to win our 9th title in a row on the pitch but we won’t stand back and let our hard work in the rain, Hail and snow count for nothing.

Buzz, the banks have stated they won't be lending to football clubs, too big a risk, it now seems, wonder what changed that, eh.
