    Kicking Sion out of the Europa league and then realising they've made a mistake after letting Celtic slip into the group stage.

    Now they are talking about;

    • Adding Sion into Group I
    • Cancelling all previous results in the group
    • Allowing them into the last 32 through a play off

    What a shambles, but I think the best option would be to cancel all previous results, let Sion in and have a 5 team group

    Medro's too old for jelly and ice cream.

    Boring old Medro!

    I have no problem with Celtic, but if Sion were incorrectly expelled, then why are Celtic still in the competition?

    Then Sion shouldn't be in the competition.
    Either way, one of them should be out.

    I thought the Europa League could not get anymore idotic, but UEFA have proved me wrong.

    My team recently won the county intermediate hurling final after losing in the semi final. The opposition fielded ineligible players and were flung out.
    Our senior camogie team fielded ineligible players and were thrown out.....swings and roundabouts.

    I respect all your opinions.

    You have to admire their thoroughness - checking the parentage like that. <ok>

    If the CAS order Sion to be reinstated, then why wouldn't UEFA just kick Celtic back out, though?
