The Offical Glasgow Celtic thread

Good to see a wee club get a result after a tough week... fair play!

Anti Utd & Celtic this man.....

I'm actually not anti Celtic I like to see them do well. The craziness of some supporters and this "oh but we're more than just a club" thing gets on my wick a bit because Celtic are the same as every other club a business and a brand.

Petty.

Talking about petty, is it true that the non-sectarian (more than) a club insisted on Dominos changing the branding on their pizza kiosk at Parkhead because the support couldn't tolerate the company's traditional colours?

No, that isn't true

The reason for that is nothing to do with the colours, the Pizza boxes they give out are still red white and blue, nothing to do with supporters not tolerating the colours.

So what is the reason then?

I don't think Celtic fans are too bothered by Rodgers actually leaving. Short term - they'll probably win everything anyway. Longer term....new manager, cut a few corners financially on Rodgers and bank the compo, probably still well ahead of the pack in Scotland. One bad managerial appointment will probably still not cost them dearly either.

The issue Celtic fans seem to have is that this shows just how far down the food chain the Scottish Premier League has become and where Celtic are, it's hard for them to accept that Leicester City are considered a bigger challenge - but quite clearly, it is.

I'd agree that a bad managerial appt would be a huge problem... but that's the same for all clubs I suppose

Liecester is a big challenge alright... as they are poor. But with millions to spend.
Celtic are a different maybe more pressurised challenge as the margin for error is much tighter.
Tough job on a shoestring.
Different challe goes.
Bigger challenge getting a rubbish team to play well in epl  but easier with zillions to spend. Little or no pressure... for a year or two anyway

To do with stadium colours.

Same happens in the US. The boxes stay the same, but there is a continuity of visual design on the concourse, in Celtics case the primary colour will be green

That response won't satisfy him because it doesn't support his anti Celtic conspiracy theory

The reason for still using dominos traditional red white and blue branding... ?
I'd say that it's because Celtic are not too worried about it.
Having a green stripe in the shops in the decor in celtic park is hardly surprising!!

They haven't done a rangers who had to remove all green straws from shops and directors box plus refuse to sell green pepperami if I recall correctly!!

Celtic nowhere as bad as sevco or the north of Ireland team... so stop trying to make them out to be!

I don't mind Celtic. Good luck to them etc. But this blind faith, more than a club, we're a big Irish parish, Rodgers is a cheating sex addict shite is embarrassing. They're a football business.
There's also a huge sectarian element that's just glossed over. Both Celtic and Rangers feed off this to try and generate profits, which makes me a little uneasy.

What part is he wrong about? He's right about clubs having major issues with sectarian abuse towards opposing teams. Only this week I listened to scottish journalist discussing the issue. Steve Clarke had problems with sectarian abuse from Rangers fans and Kris Boyd got sectarian abuse from Celtic fans. Neither club seems to be doing anything to try and stamp it out and its always been there. You only have to see the poisonous atmosphere at old firm games on the tv no matter who's at home. One reason why I try to discourage my son from watching Celtic or scottish football

maybe do your research before posting such uninformed statements.

That's like saying you wouldn't let your son support Dublin in Gaelic football because they are known to be drunk, tattoo wielding, dole cheating , drug involved scumbags

If you don't like Celtic that's fine.
Interesting you are posting your ill informed misinformed statements on a Celtic thread
