'If It's Football, It's Vital'
Peaceful Celtic Reunion
Martin O'Neill and Villa will most likely face Celtic in the pre season Peace Cup as we have been drawn with his former club and Malaga in the Group Stages.
Apparently the 'Scottish Giants' need to win their domestic league in order to qualify for th eprestigious tournament so I'm a little confused as to why they have been drawn for the group stages, if they haven't yet been invited and accepted?
But this is me. I don't understand much about football thesedays.
To further confuse things, considering Celtic need to win the domestic league we play them on July 29th, and face Malaga on July 25th.
What happens if Celtic don't win the league, do they forfeit the match?

Is it Celtic or Rangers? Maybe it's 'the winners of the SPL' that qualify? Dunno, I agree, football is confusing these days...!

How did we qualify?
