The Offical Glasgow Celtic thread

[Fear Bun Na Sceilpe]

Large sections of the fanbase behaviour is based on making political statements. What has wee Paddy Coyle and by Bernadette Devlin or Palestine got to do with football. Most lads would not have a notion what any of that stuff is even about.

very sweeping statement there

Not at all. Very accurate

And what? You could make the same argument for the GAA.

Personally think the Green Brigade are a bit full of themselves but big f**king tickle, they're entitled as anyone else to highlight social justice issues, they undoubtedly help create a great atmosphere and spectacle in Celtic Park tho. I follow football ultras and a couple of other similar twitter accounts, the Green Brigade are not unique, they've probably taken inspiration from South American clubs mo.

It's to provide an alternative view. Hard for some to understand. Work away lads and enjoy it , just I find some elements of it far removed from what sport is about. I suppose we can  all get the two mixed at times, i had my issues with commonwealth games , maybe pot and kettle , but in Celtics case it just seems very front and centre of everything

There doesn't seem to be much/any politics discussed here - at least not on the odd occasion I've dipped into the thread. Seems like you just had your own preconceived notion of what those participating in the thread tend to talk about and wanted to let them know that you see yourself as being above them.

Why else would you come into a thread to tell everyone how you have no interest in the topic? I really don't get people doing that.

Right Fear. Most lads can fcuk off. Celtic supporters, particularly Green Brigade, highlight social or world injustices. Have you a problem with this, especially drawing attention to the horrific injustices happening on a daily basis in Palestine.

If you've a problem with this, I have a problem with you.

It's actually a very broad supporter base. Fear knows this though. He has become like the preachy ex smoker/drinker unfortunately. A dry drunk. Make up with your local shinners lad. It's consuming you.

The battle of the Bogside was in 1969 and Bernadette Devlin never darkened our door after breaking few slabs back then

Has anyone apart from yourself made a comment about things like that on this thread?

And your logic is?

The logic is that you claim to be providing and alternative view. What I'm asking you is what alternative view are you providing given that nobody else apart from yourself is commenting on the issues you're posting about. Have you seen anyone here, apart from yourself, express an opinion on the Green Brigade's displays?

Favourite British team? Is that an attempt at a dig. No one in their right mind would bring that up. It's a fact as much as Celtic are a Scottish team or a Glaswegian team or a European team. If you know your history,  first Scottish team, first British team and first non-Latin team to win the European cup.
You are a sanctimonious arse.

Someone hit it on the money earlier. Fear is like that reformed drinker who saw the light and now attempts to preach from on height. The type that walks into the club house with their coke and tries to correct the errors of everyone else's ways.

Sums it up perfectly.
