It is pretty unbelievable that he was away to Spain and the club supposedly never knew?
Totally undermines Lennon too who came out after the Aberdeen fiasco and said it was home training home game home.
Bolingoli obviously picked him up wrong.

Did Lennon not wonder who the postcard was from ffs!!
What was he thinking??
One thing for sure is this virus has shown up who the selfish folk in society are. Funnily enough the people you see moaning about the situation most on social media are usually the ones who have no regard for any of the rules.
Perhaps but they have taken tough decisions before that threaten jobs. Gyms, theatres, fairgrounds, not to mention affecting foreign travel. This is a public health emergency we are in and football was given a uniquely privileged position. Football has failed abysmally to recognise that. I
I can see the plug being pulled. The knock on effect of that is incalculable but who can point the finger of blame anywhere other than at football ?
Apparently Lennon has a bit of a record for being very lenient with time off, which is surprising given his seemingly strict managerial approach.
I read that Ronny Deila flagged it as an issue when he joined, that the players he inherited were used to being given a lot more time off than he was willing to sanction.
Or they played hamilton on the Sunday so would have had Monday off as day after the game, maybe Tuesday is there normal day off so that’ could be 2 days off,
Really?
Interesting to hear, but unless Bolingoli said he was staying local then it sounds like a shocker from top to bottom.
Either he lied to his management in which case he is a selfish numpty.
Or his management signed off on him going to a restricted travel country in which case the book has to be thrown at Celtic.
Both do not look good at all.

Would argue that stopping it jeopardises that aim more than not stopping it does. You’d be taking a lot of people (not just players) out of a working environment where they have to be tested regularly and which is very controlled when they are there. And if they don’t have work to go to they’re not going to feel the need to be as careful perhaps.
Shutting down a whole industry because of the actions of a tiny minority would be hugely unfair IMO. The individuals must be punished properly though.
No a doctor or health specialist by any stretch, but is there a small chance of him being asympotmatic? I.e a carrier but could test negative? If so, and with the players from aberdeen who tested negative being told to isolate for 14 days, presumably in case they show symptoms even though testing negative, this would then make all players involved in the kilmarnock game could be at risk and may have to do the same?
Could be talking rubbish mind but eother way, an incredibly selfish and stupid thing to do. Where do we go from here? 🤦*♂️
The Aberdeen players need to isolate because they were in close contact with someone who was positive.
You don't need to isolate just because you've been in close contact with someone who has failed to quarantine on their return from a high risk country but who has ultimately tested negative.
It's true that it might be a few days before he maybe tests positive but until that happens no-one who's been near him needs to isolate.
I'll put the cans down 🤣👍
Cheers though, just cant get my head around why when government guidelines state if you travel to spain you must self isolate for 14 days and he goes and does this. Hopefully noone is affected and the government/governing bodies can come up with some way forward!
The English Premiership and Championship managed to finish their season under very similar strict protocol but with no real dramas or serious breaches.
We’ve been up and running 2 weekends and now had 2 serious breaches already.
As I understand it, certain assurances were given and special protocols agreed to, to allow the resumption of football.
Seems Aberdeen have breached them, and this Celtic guy has to, and Sparky's party didn't exactly send the right message either.
The Hibs supporting teenagers who congregated outside at the Livi game were obviously not a party to those protocols, but the common denominator is....football.
I think Sturgeon may consider pulling the plug, but probably more likely she will give a clear, 'three strikes and you are out' warning.
Problem is, the players just don't seem to get the message and I think it is inevitable that at some point the plug is indeed pulled.
I just hope its not because of any behaviour related to Hibs.
Why doesn’t he just say he was checking his eyesight? That’s allowed, isn’t it?
I think the politicians need to be careful not to treat football differently from other businesses when it comes to clamping down on individual employees breaking rules, but at the same time, footballers need to realise quickly that they are putting everything at risk by not competing some pretty basic rules.
