The Offical Glasgow Celtic thread

[SaffronSports]

Damage to the stand and repairs will be paid for by Celtic. Thats how these things have always been dealt with. Stupid bastards will be stupid bastards.

The real issues imo are the lad who got bingoed in the far corner, one of the Marvel characters punching the steward and the lad attacking the Celtic staff member. Rest of it was hold me back pish.

Peelers have to take a look at themselves too, nowhere to be seen until well after the pens. Normally youll see them a few mins before a game ends.

What a game of football yesterday, probably the worst standard of football I've ever witnessed. Rangers couldn't beat that Celtic team say it all, the lack of quality is alarming. There a lad came on for Celtic "Mvuka" who if he turned up at the local park for a game wouldn't get picked and i'm talking about jumpers for goal posts here...SHOCKING.
As for the aftermath...Celtic fans did trash their stand and did spill out onto the pitch which is unacceptable and it's really difficult to stamp out them wee neds from society as they're everywhere, Celtic will hammer them and you will not see the Green Brigade back at CP.
As for the Sevco support...they invaded the pitch to attack and fight and was the only thought on their minds, the attacked Celtic staff and players and ran the full length of the pitch to confront and fight. There is a vast difference in what happened but the picture painted this morning is it all came from Celtic and followed by Rangers...Is that how you all seen it or have i the green tinted glasses on.

You have the green tinted glasses on Im afraid.
Away end was wrecked, it'll cost a fortune to paint over the "66 mushy peas" grafatti everywhere.
Both clubs need to take a zero policy to this crap and hand out bans.

Congratulations on the game.

Well i clearly did point out Celtic fans trashed their stand and went onto the pitch to celebrate which is not allowed so a clear breach of the rules.
I just can't get into my head why people are comparing like for like when Celtic fans with the euphoria of winning ran onto the pitch to celebrate in the heat of the moment and get selfies with players is the same as Sevco leaving their end and running the full length of the pitch masked up looking for a fight...How is that the same?. (not directed at you REDhand)
I go the games and I can see Celtic have their fair share of wee pricks in their support so it's not just them'uns but in this case there is a clear difference...The video shows the line of Police around the 18 yard box and Sevco fans at the Police throwing fireworks into Celtic fans at the Celtic end...does it need any further words?.

You seem to be missing the point that running onto the pitch has escalated the situation. Why not celebrate in the stands with your fellow supporters? Why did they need to run onto the pitch? The behaviour from the Rangers supporters was unacceptable also and both clubs should be punished accordingly.  A shame for supporters on both sides who are genuine football fans that there likely be no away fans at either game as adds to the atmosphere.

Fans have ran onto pitches to celebrate last minute winners etc for many years and nothing like Sunday happened. Celtic fans have done it many times. So have fans from other clubs. What made Sunday different

Can't recall too many games in the Premier League where fans have ran onto the pitch in big derbies in the recent past? If Celtic have done it many times, then perhaps the issue should have been addressed earlier with their fan base? Players coming onto the pitch is wrong and can cause issues, you don't know what type of headbanger is being allowed onto the pitch. (Them not knowing that running onto the pitch isn't appropriate conduct would already raise the question as to how sane the individual is)

Given the obvious hatred between the two teams and their respective fanbases it was obviously going to antagonise Rangers supporters, who's behaviour also left alot to be desired. 

Would the Celtic supporters have ran onto the pitch if they beat Hearts/Hibs/Aberdeen on penalties, I would highly doubt it. 

[SaffronSports]

Worth a wee mention, the first group of fans to leave the stands was Rangers when the goal in extra time was disallowed.

You wouldn't see that in the Premier League as it's a tourist league with half and half scarves worn by the fans.
As pointed out by others Rangers thought they had scored but turned out to be a hand ball and their fans spilled out in wild celebrations but Celtic fans didn't retaliate. There are too many times to mention where teams have scored last minute winners in Scotland and the fans have spilled out onto the pitch around the goal mouth to celebrate. That includes Hibs, Hearts and others and not just the big two.

Or maybe the crowds know how to behave themselves a little better in 2026? 

If fans are continually coming onto the pitch that's a wider issue for the SPL to deal with.  Is there going to any admission that Celtic fans were in the wrong or just continual blaming of Rangers supporters? Fair play to all those Celtic fans for staying in their seats after Rangers scored

Not talking about the premier league. Football exists outside of that ye know. I don't know how much Scottish football you watch. Or Celtic games. Last month Celtic beat Kilmarnock 3-2 with a late late winner. Fans on the pitch. Guess what. Killie fans didn't come on also. There'll be other examples.
I'm not condoning fans going onto the pitch. It shouldn't happen, but Celtic fans were just celebrating. It's what they do and have done a lot regardless of opponent

Everton fans ran onto the pitch after an injury time equaliser in the Merseyside derby last season.

I mean, if he'd replied to the right person, maybe.

Of if he did reply to the right person, you'd really have to question how and your capacity for, well, quite a lot of things.
