The Offical Glasgow Celtic thread

[Celt_Man]

At least he has Laoislad and his mammy to love him.

Why all the grief about a foreign born footballer who plays in a foreign league?
How can can anyone take that Cole Diouf soap drama personally?
Grow the feck up.

If it is such a non-story, why are you bother posting about it?

Celtic were trying to play football and i cant remember a bad tackle from a Celt all night

But as usual when Rangers do wrong it'll be 'the old firm' in shame

Lenny's appeal against the 6 match ban being heard today - that should be interesting after last night 

God my head hurts today!! 

Hail hail

Neil Lennon once a thug always a thug it seems

I'm fully aware you are on a brilliant wind-up, but I'll take a small bite and ask:
a) How Neil Lennon was originally a thug
b) How last night has reaffirmed this.

Id hate to see you take a big bite?

I see the Police chief calling for the Old Firm to clean up the act and suggested even playing the game behing closed doors or off air. Seemed to suggest its more than just the match going fans that need policing but the wider social and alochol issues that stem from it and that it isn't viable for them to continue to incur such costs.

They could just get the two captains to play the match on a Playstation or XBOX,at least the quality of football would be better.

Clearly last night was the first derby youve watched this year Laoislad - now your coming on as the complete know-all

Last 3 before last night were all exciting games with Celtic playing as good a brand of football since the O'Neill days

last night they did their job and won ugly, against a side who were set up to kick, foul and get bodies behind the ball. There isn't a team in Europe (apart from Barca maybe) that wins whilst playing great quality football every week, why would you expect a team from Scotland to do so?

Liverpool FC

There is overwhelming evidence that Liverpool Football Club supporters were the first to sing "You'll Never Walk Alone" en masse. The song was famously covered by Liverpool group Gerry and the Pacemakers in 1963.At this time, supporters standing on the Spion Kop terrace at Anfield began singing popular chart songs of the day. Their "inventive ferocity" was captured on camera by BBC Panorama in 1964.One year later, when Liverpool met Leeds United in the F.A. Cup Final, the travelling Kop sang the same song and match commentator Kenneth Wolstenholme commended the "Liverpool signature tune." Liverpudlians have been singing "You'll Never Walk Alone" since 1963. Fully 46 years.
It was later sung by many different supporters throughout England, most often during important cup matches. For a time, it was almost considered a National Standard.



Celtic

Celtic sang it on two or three occasions during the 1970s, along with Aberdeen and Hibernian, though it was only popularised and formally adopted by the Parkhead faithful in the mid- to late-1980s. Liverpool were invited to play a charity game at Celtic Park following the Hillsborough disaster in 1989 (which, incidentally, they won, by four goals to nil). Both sets of fans sang it together as a symbol of unity and support. Only in the years to follow, as both clubs repeatedly came together in a series of friendly fixtures, did Celtic begin to sing it on a regular basis, otherwise they have no legitimate claim to the song, nor is there any earlier evidence seriously linking them to it. Liverpool can produce an abundance of written material and video evidence. Celtic not so much.
