The Offical Glasgow Celtic thread

[From the Bunker]

The running onto the pitch is getting ridiculous. It's giving the Club a bad name and we are beginning to look unsporting.

It will only take one fool to cause an incident and the good name of the Fans of the Club will be tarnished.

Today's invasion ruined the conclusion of the game. It was like missing the last minute of a good movie.

Does big Nancy get a medal?

Wilfried Nancy is technically eligible to receive a Scottish Premiership winner's medal, but it is not guaranteed as the final decision rests entirely with Celtic FC, not the league.

Think it was 2 league wins he had. Those 6 points proved vital in the end 😂

Haven't even had time to laugh at how shit rangers have been this past month. Danny Rhol under serious pressure now.

The club already has a bad name in a lot of parts. I lived in England for a long time. I heard about it loads.
I do agree tho. Wouldn't surprise me if we start next season with a ban on fans or something like that

This is a good summary on the job that Martin O'Neill has done at Celtic.

And the mess behind the scenes.

Regardless of yesterday the club is a mess at the top level. Be interesting  to see what the Board's plan is now but time is of the essence. The fans had a plan to set all this to the side, support the team until the end of the season.

Fair play to you acknowledging that this is an issue and bad look for the club which others on here try brush under carpet.

Great end of season and good for Scottish football to have three teams competing for the league going into final weeks rather than Celtic winning the league pulling up. Have to give it to Celtic, while not the most talented side ever had seriously dug in the last week and got two wins when up against it. Hearts be sick hopefully they can be challengers again next year.

There's a worrying sc**bag element developing with the Celtic fan base. There's always been the usual headers like every team but this something different. And what's the craic with a crowd of wee lads running about with balaclavas on ffs.

No, just sick of wankers jumping from thread to thread to troll.

Fair play to O'Neill and Maloney.

There's a big clearout and rebuild
Job required and I hope the Board move quickly after the cup final. 

The likes of Engels, Yang, Nygren, Trusty are just bang average/ poor.  Nygren in fairness has knack of getting goals even when he is playing shite.  Engels was dam lucky to score the pen yesterday , keeper should have saved it. McGregor and Forrest are in the twilight. 

6-8 players needed at least

Wouldn't be surprised to see
Maloney get some role going forward.

Lack of class Benny disappointed.

Who are the options for manager next season then, I take it O'Neill wont be the long term option now.

Just haven't heard much noise about a replacement.

[marty34]

I think there is too much emphasis on Celtic's decisions for/against in the last few games.

There, is clearly, an anti-Celtic feeling in Scotland and a lot of other band wagon supporters of other clubs. This is natural as other clubs didn't want to see Celtic win the league. Or maybe more importantly, they wanted Hearts to win for that 'novely' factor of splitting Celtic and Rangers etc. Other might have wanted Hearts to win after leading the league all along and bringing it to a final day showdown. I get all that.


But all these decisions should be looked at for each club over the full season. Then we'd get a better breakdown of what's happening. Can't just focus on last few games. 


For example Hibs V Celtic a few weeks ago. Hibs got a goal that was a handball (twice) and it was allowed. In the same game, a Celtic player was pushed two handed in the back in the box and no penalty given. Against Motherwel, Maeda was cleaned out of it in the box by the keeper and no penalty. Any other place on the pitch and they'd be clear frees.


I understand the emotion of Celtic's third goal and the pitch invasion. It shouldn't have happened. I get the excitement and how it happened. But I can't understand why there was no line of security (even as a visual barrier) around the pitch say, after 75mins. Especially for a game of that magnitude. Maybe that's not the way it's done in soccer (they do it at Croke Park) but there'll probably be new regulations coming in now because of that.


Celtic, and Martin O'Neill got over the line. Probably his best win ever. Against all the odds but there's some rebuild to do now. It'd be great if O'Neill could be Chairman of Celtic. He'd do a great job I think. No doubt he'd get things done around the club.


It'd would be some handling if Celtic lost that league because of the boards inaction over the past 3 years. The fans will want to see what the board's intent and ambition is now.

A great paddy power reel doing the rounds on Facebook taking the piss out of all the Twitter comments regarding Celtics win. A couple of Brysons comments made it

[JollyGreenGiant]

I just read an article about Celtic's success that opened with the line "All the right people are hurting today". In short, this solidifies my view that Scottish Football's lack of quality and long standing competition has been replaced by a culture war, and one-upmanship. If your first thought after success is to jeer the reaction and feelings of your opponents, it demonstrates how kicks are being found when it comes to the Scottish game.
