    Celtic get Europa League lifeline after Sion expelled

    Celtic have been reinstated in the Europa League after Uefa expelled Sion from the competition.

    Sion, who are likely to appeal the verdict, fielded several ineligible players during their 3-1 aggregate win over Celtic in the play-off round.

    A Celtic spokesman said: "We have been advised by Uefa that the two protests relating to the matches against FC Sion have been upheld.

    "As a result of which each match has been forfeited in favour of Celtic."

    Celtic will therefore take Sion's place in Group I, which also features Atletico Madrid, Rennes and Udinese.

    Sion signed five players while the club were still under a transfer ban imposed by Fifa after breaching rules over the signing of Egypt goalkeeper Essam El-Hadary three years ago.

    One of those players, Pascal Feindouno, scored two goals in the 3-1 second leg win over Celtic in Switzerland.

    Ideally they should have kicked them out right after the game. That way we would have been seeded 2nd, instead of 4th.

    I think we accept, that like the rest of the scottish sides, we were rank in Europe. But had Celtic not put the complaint in they'd have got it in the neck from fans and the press. Everyone else has to abide by the rules so why not Sion? At the end of the day we will probably be pumped by the likes of Udinese and Atletico Madrid. But the extra sheckles can only be good for the club so hey-ho.
