The Offical Glasgow Celtic thread

[lynchbhoy]

He was booked for taunting Celtic supporters at the bottom of the South Stand a few minutes after his goal. Whatever he said caused dozens of Celtic supporters to rise out of their seats and react.I witnessed this with my own eyes.

Now given his family background, his unavowed love for the Huns etc, and the reaction of the Celtic supporters on the receiving end of his abuse, it is reasonable to assume that the taunts he offered were sectarian in nature.
If evidence emerges to the contrary then I will of course apologise and retract my original statement.

I disagree. I think it's more reasonable to assume that, having just scored the equaliser, he was getting dogs abuse from Hoops fans. Maybe he smiled in response, maybe he winked at them, maybe he stuck his tongue out and blew a raspberry. Who knows. Maybe he played an imaginary flute. If there's evidence he did something sectarian, throw the book at him. Likewise, if there's evidence he was the subject of sectarian barracking, ban the bigots from the ground for life. If there's no evidence of either, let's all drop the subject.

again look at sports coverage from this game on tv and sports reporters, from their eye witness reviews they seem to have said this long before Tony reported it on this thread....

ok theres no notion of what he was 'saying' but its his actions and gestures that the sports commentations highlighted.

as for the crowd saying anything to feeney - I think the crowd would be shouthing 'WHO' as I didnt know he was a ni player/huns fan and I'd expect most of them didnt either - so how/why abuse a nobody ?
Doesnt happen in Celtic park when I go there, only the barry ferguson/alex rae/bob ftp malcolm openly bitter huns are given grief. The rest are just called names like  'yer sihte ya hun' etc etc and while not something youd like your children to hear if you were on the receiving end.

Looking like Kris Boyd will be leaving Mordor and heading to Birmingham City, would be great news if this happens. 

no
bad news
he is sihte
huns will get a fortune from their masonic old pal mr mcleish (another souness type scenario where at blackburn and newcastle he bought he rangers dross and paid double or three times the going rate for -amaruso, barry ferg, tugay, boumsong etc)
injecting cash into their coffers and allowing them to potentially buy decent players

boydinio must stay ! 

18 goals this season so far, how many games has his goals won for the darkside!?
If they get 3 million for him well done, sure Uncle Wally might spend the cash on another Kyle Lafferty!  or maybe Minty Moonbeams will just pocket the cash as usual.

healy rumoured to be heading to them....

[Bensars]

Heard Healy earlier on the radio myself. was expecting to come in this morning and see dedicated thread by Mr Fearon on his favourite player and the conflict he would face if Healy moved to Rangers

[T Fearon]

I'm on record as saying that I hope Rangers sign Healy and Chris Baird as well

With a strike force of Healy, Lafferty and Miller, Dundee United will fancy their chances of coming second

[rossie mad]

boyd leaving would be a big blow to any chance rangers think they have of winning the title.so off with him i say.He has been in impressive form recently (thought he was v gud against caley thistle last sunday) so it would be a big loss to rangers.if healy went to them i wouldnt be to worried about his so called prowess because he has about as much skill as a three legged one eyed dog thats too fat to walk

Heard a rumour Lafferty wrecked himself in training today and could be out for rest of the season ... I'm sure goalies all over Scotland are breathing a sigh of relief

Rumour just? They'll hardly let Boyd go if that's the case.

Aye, or definitely bring Healy in as a matter of urgency

[Rav67]

Boyd has an unbelievable goal record although the vast majority of them are against the bottom half SPL teams, he never seems to score against Dundee Utd, Hearts Aberdeen, Hibs much in recent years and to be fair he hasn't played much against Celtic.  It would most definitely be a big blow to their title hopes if he goes as they wont replace him with another goal-a-game striker.

[Lamh Dhearg Alba]

Crazy to sell Boyd for £4m after blowing more than that on Lafferty and Edu . The credit crunch is hitting at Ibrox though .

[red hander]

Laugh-arty did his ankle AND knee, apparently

Any links?

Don't think it's public knowledge yet but you could try BBC ... I'd say it'll be in papers tomorrow

[tyroneStatto]

looks like the boyd move has stalled
