Old Trafford icon and now football pundit Darren Fletcher has weighed into the hot topic of the day in football.
With not a ball getting kicked the debate has been running wild on what the authorities should be doing to end the season.
We’ve had some good ideas and not so good ideas. What seems to be the consensus is, that if the league both north and south of the border can get played in any capacity to wrap up things, that should be the first option.
Failing a football led scenario, that’s where everyone’s opinion heads off in different directions. It’s all self interest and partisan stuff, people who stand to lose out want a scrap, people who want rewarded for being the best want their reward. It’s not ideal.
Here is Darren Fletcher’s take on what’s going on.
“I totally agree that the league should be finished.” Fletcher told RecordSport.
“But the eventually of an Armageddon and it doesn’t finish then Celtic would rightly be declared champions because of their points total [and] how much they are ahead.
“I can see where Neil Lennon’s [coming from], and we spoke about it before, every club is going to be biased towards whatever situation they are in. No matter what league and no matter what position. We should respect any decision that is made, but the chances of that happening are very slim because there are going to be court cases and arguments.
“They have got big things like history being made. Celtic are on the verge of nine in a row for the third time ever. And potentially carrying that into next season for the first-ever team to win 10 in a row that’s all the conversations that are going on right now.
“Rangers next season, off the back of Celtic this season potentially winning nine, next season is like one of the biggest seasons in Scottish football history.”
It’s up to UEFA and our domestic governing bodies to sort this mess out. Will they be able to do it this week? We’ll wait and see.
