CELTIC will NOT be given permission to hold a test event this Sunday after the Scottish government refused to give permission to the club.
Scottish Rugby has already had the go ahead but Celtic and Scottish football have to wait it would appear.
This would fit in with the contempt our government has for football in this country and the way it’s managed.

Rugby fans get an easy ride of things while Scottish football fans can be subjected to the worst sort of policing, when all we’re doing is going to support our clubs. Given the amount of money the game generates for the country, it’s baffling it’s treated secondary to lesser sports.
Celtic will now have to wait for the go ahead and have something in place for when fans are allowed back into stadiums in small numbers in mid-September. The first game after Sept 14 is Celtic vs Livingston.
