The Offical Glasgow Celtic thread

[tonto1888]

One group of Celtic fans let themselves down a bag full in Sunderland there's a video of them singing about Lee Rigby, I'm no fan of the British army but this is a particularly very low act.

Of course the papers are hoping all over it now.

They are guys who attach themselves to Celtic but they are not true supporters of the club and clearly have no intetest in the reputation of the Celtic support. Part of me is extremely pissed at the mindset of some individuals that are representing us in this way and giving the press cannon fodder.

Thw Lee Rigby song is totally indefensible but at the same time it is 2 1/2 weeks since the game at Windsor and all the headlines after that were about Griffiths followed by 2 weeks of booting of the Celtic support on a generalization basis.

You only have to look around messageboards etc to see the general mood of Celtic supporters to the actions of a few yet we continue to be tarred with the one brush. Ideally the press would be given no food but I still believe their coverage for nearly 3 weeks has been disproportionate.

So why do you try to defend it then?  Love the way Celtic FC get fined by UEFA and then some of their fans go on the rampage in Sunderland and you are still crying foul.  Can you not see how ridiculous you sound on here?

GO AWAY.
On the rampage in Sunderland? Really?

Is that michaeLG you are referring to? He will be fit if we go out but cannot see him making an appearance if we go through.

[Hectic]

Not sure about Griff. I would say it will be a closely guarded secret either way.

[T Fearon]

10/3 Griffiths to score and Celtic win.Reasonable odds and I've used up one of my free bets.Celtic Assistant Manager confirms that Griffiths will definitely be involved in the game tonight,but no confirmation he will start.

Go away, followed by a question.  Make your mind up.  What would you call what happened in Sunderland then?

[ned]

What happened in Sunderland was a handful of neds trying to act hard. A rampage is what Genghis Khan liked to do with 4 thousand warriors. Hyperbolic bullshit.

Celtic fans showing their true colours this past few weeks it seems...

Yeah thats us sussed now. We can all now be put in the same bracket as all the Man U fans singing about Hillsborough and all Luverpool fans singing about Munich.

Wise up troll.

Ah I could not pass up on the opportunity to see my team play a mere 20 miles from my home.I honestly thought things had changed.I did the official tour of the new Windsor Park the week before the game,including the IFA museum (or to be more precise the Pat Jennings/George Best museum) and knew more than the wee man who was the official guide!

That and the fact That Linfield and PSNI said it was safe for Celtic supporters to attend encouraged me,and as I wasn't wearing any colours I figured it would be ok.Would not do it again though

Have to give you credit for going in fairness

We've dominated that first half but no goal, need to get Griffiths on!

Lots of intricate play around their penalty box, not enough clear chances. Griffiths definitely needed.

2 and a quarter hours against Rosenborg and hardly even a sniff of a solitary goal.

They've had plenty of chances. Be a clown if you want but at least be an honest clown
