The authorities will be wishing they'd specified in advance what the 'coronavirus' sanctions would be. I don't know how they're going to handle this fairly. Suspend the culprits for, say, four games? Celtic wouldn't miss their guy; Aberdeen's squad would be massively weakened. The clubs are charged as well; so, for example, they may be fined, thereby setting a tariff by precedent. It's hard to avoid thinking that there'll be other breaches of protocol during the season. A fine, the amount of which would be big enough to send a message to Aberdeen and Celtic, would, if they were hit with the same punishment, be the end of the road for some clubs.
Deduct points / forfeit points? Not a chance! Last season was bad enough; imagine the rammy if the title and / or relegation was decided on a points deduction or a club given a buckshee three points without kicking a ball.
Anybody who tried that would be well advised to leave the country and head for one of the few remaining places we can go to.
Good luck, Hampden.
