It was unreal TBH. I never witnessed anything like it and i suppose thats how Celtic began singing YNWA to their own games.

Caldwell is being touted as Scotland's Player of the Year so I don't know where all the negative stuff is coming from.

Had always thought Caldwell was a bit of a carthorse but I must admit that over the past year he seems to have matured as a player and has in general been in excellent form. Never thought Id say that

. Celtic support seems to have been won over as well from what Ive seen and heard.

As for Hesselink Id think that if Celtic could get a half decent transfer fee they would be wise to move him on.

Caldwell in short list for Scottish Player of the Year along with Brown.

Also they are showing highlights of the Celtic Liverpool game on the big screen at Celtic Park on Saturday

Do you inform your fellow celtic fans of your views on hillsborough at this time, as youve done with us in the past?

what are you getting at Nifan???

What did Tony say about that as i assume form your tone he has siad something you disapprove off

nifan · April 16, 2009, 12:45:52 PM

Illdecide, tonys view on the tragedy are broadly in keeping with the sun newspaper, which he has claimed was attacked for telling the truth.

Im just curious as to his views on the bond Celtic seem to have with Liverpool on this matter, whether Tony agrees with it, or whether he has voiced the views he has on here.

lynchbhoy · April 16, 2009, 12:49:26 PM

oh FFS
another feeble thinly veiled go at Tony for some unknown reason
nothing to do with Celtic.

still dont think either caldwell or mcmanus are nearly good enough as centre backs for Celtic

Tony posted regarding a link between celtic and liverpool regarding the hillsborough tragedy. It does regard celtic.
I asked Tony his views on it.

he does not need you to defend him LB

this applies to Celtic and the Celtic thread how ?

nifan · April 16, 2009, 01:04:15 PM

Illdecide and tony have both posted on the link re. the hillsborough tragedy, highlighting the links between the clubs over this.
If you have a problem with this i suggest you talk to tony for bringing up this link in the issue.

As a massive celtic fan, and someone who talked about a "poignant friendly" I wonder how tony squares this against his previous comments regarding hillsborough.

T Fearon · April 16, 2009, 01:04:58 PM

My views are well known and I don't mind repeating them. Whilst having the utmost sympathy for the victims and their families, and I have visited and been moved by the memorial at Anfield on three or four occaions, I nevertheless maintain that an unruly ill behaved crowd/mob forced the Yorkshire Police into making tragic mistakes that day. Had people behaved responsibly there would have been no tragedy. You cannot really blame Liverpool FC or their decent supporters for Hillsborough or Heysel.

In a way there is an analogous situation here with the Omagh bombing, where Police and Gardai failings are often highlighted at the expense of the bombers themselves who were ultimately responsible.

I do not intend to be drawn into further debate or comment further on this subject.
