Talk about processes for the sake of it.

If Celtic are serious then putting them into the lower dregs of the non league setup would be a total farce, what would be the point?

Throw em in the Championship and have done with it

I reckon L1/Championship

Not next season. To move the goalposts for other teams in the league without notice would be well out of order.

...unless an existing Championship club (let's call them Portsmouth) were to go to the wall in the meantime?

The point is blindingly obvious. They have not earned the right to play there, or any league.

The situation is no different from Franchise.

This...big time. Celtic do not deserve the right to be in any English league unless they earn that right like any other club and start from the bottom. The fallout on this forum if we were to win promotion to the Championship, as a theoretical example, only to be told to fuck off because Celtic have been parachuted in doesn't bear thinking about.

And Franchise is proof that 'minor' details like this don't matter to those allegedly in charge.

No they can't be allowed to take the place of any of these teams. Ultimately the "extra" place must be taken by a team in the feeder to the football league, the conference.
