Very good showing tonight, Stokes was outstanding as he has been for most of the season imo. Everything goes through him, vital to the team. Himself and Griffiths will be a good partnership. Love Johansen btw, Exactly the kind of player that will come in handy for the European football. Wee Henderson looks to be a brilliant talent, took his goal very well. Here we go, ten in a row

On another note, utterly shameful the way those stewards acted tonight. Wouldn't let the players go anywhere near the fans to celebrate with them at the end. Thought it was hilarious when the lads broke through  ;D Scotland and England are so far behind in their treatment of fans and the fan culture as a whole. f**k sake, their are superstars like Frank Ribery who jump in with the crowds at the end of the games and celebrate with them

Anyway, we're on our way to ten in a row  8)

Will Rangers not be in the SPL before 10 in a row?

Yes they will for sure but they'll not stop Celtic for a long time...

Fair play for winning the league and all that but in reality they have the most money, the biggest squad so there was never really any doubt that they would win it.

Is it not worrying for Celtic fans that in one off matches when lesser teams put it up to them they can't beat Morton and Aberdeen? It's a disgrace that Celtic haven't won the last 2 Trebles there really is no excuse at all for it!

Much like its a disgrace that Celtic go to Barcelona and are within 2 minutes of beating them and draw or that Barcelona, AC Milan and many other top European teams come to Celtic Park and get beat.

Tom English reckons the SPL is doing well without Rangers and Celtic have performed and have had to perform well to win games.

'There are those who will argue until the cows come home - or, more the point, when Rangers come back - that Celtic's title is devalued because they haven't had to beat much. The truth is that they have beaten improving teams and they have beaten them more impressively than they have before'.

What has been missing since the demise of Rangers, is the pressure on Celtic to win every SPL game and that every 3 points matters, in order to win the title.

Wonder will there any repercussions from SFA for the Celtic fans singing last night toward the end of the game?
End of the game? You weren't watching at the start obviously.  Never let up - Roll of honour and any gods amount of 'Party' songs.

So can they not take pressure?

Rangers will not be up to the standard for a long while yet, 7 more years possibly so 10 in a row is there for Celtic to take. But it defo is devalued for sure.

Be like Barca or Real being ousted out of the Spanish league be no pressure on the other team left to get the required points

Why do Celts fans constantly bring up one off results against the top European Clubs at home as a sign of how great the club are? At home since 2001 Celtic have beaten Juventus once (2001), Manchester United once (2006), AC Milan once (2007) and Barcelona once (2013).  Four good sides in 13yrs. Hardly a fantastic record.

That would be a reasonable point, were it not for the fact that it's currently Atletico Madrid who sit at the top of La Liga.

Yes and there are sometimes teams that have won the SPL other than Celtic and Rangers, while not that many, Hearts, Aberdeen and Hibs, with Rangers on 54.

Real and Barca have won it 32 and 22 between them That's a health share of the spoils, can't be good

Why the feck do you care what happens in the SPL, or the value of the titles?;D
Is there really nothing else happening in your life that holds your interest?

You will note that the Celtic points total has exceeded usual SPL title winning standards.
Celtic are still beating the other teams and beating them well.
And the standard of the other teams has risen, according to Tom English, based on his observations.
But what's missing, according to my casual observation of the odd game in the SPL, is that bit of extra compulsion, that Celtic had to win every game because if points were dropped then Rangers were there, to possibly take advantage, or not.
It's not that complicated, is it?
Since when would a guy like you be interested in a 90% value SPL title?




From the Bunker

It's not Celtics fault that Rangers cheated in their financial dealings and won a couple of leagues. It's not Celtics fault that Rangers are lost in the lower leagues. It's not Celtics fault they are the big fish in a small pond. Anyway, Social divides ruin Scottish football. Cities like Dundee and Edinburgh could be allot stronger if they had one football club. I have a friend from Edinburgh, a Hibs fan. I used to ask him why don't yourselves and Hearts Join up and have a proper Edinburgh team? He replied 'Sure it would be no fun winning something that way'. Hibs have not won anything since 1952! Even sadder is the fact that Hibs fans sing a song about Brian McClair scoring a goal (for Celtic) that denied Hearts a title in the late '80.

A lot of them championships were won by cheating and it was that cheating that created the situation were they ended up in liquidation.

If you think Celtic or any other big club, Liverpool, Chelsea Utd and the rest haven't cooked the books over the years then you are very naive. Rangers were caught and rightly punished other SPL teams have been done also recently and been deducted points.

While Rangers (by the way I despise their bigotry) stay out of the SPL there won't be a team that will give Celtic a run for their money, (excuse the pun) simples. A barometer of how far Rangers have to go will be how they do in the Cup (aren't they still in it?)

Haven't you heard ? That club went bust or to be technical about it were liquidated. That club has 54 titles although many of them stink to high heaven with the amount of cheating that went on. The latest incarnation, i.e. sevco have a grand total of 0 championships to their name. Rangers may be historically the most successful but they sure as hell aren't the most successful active club
