Travel in numbers, sing for most of the game (they do actually have a large song book of football related songs), have good displays and new ideas, create a great atmosphere at home matches as well......that's what I meant.
Oh and they cheer the UEFA CL anthem with mighty gusto to get the whole stadium rocking and behind the team when its played, they don't create negativity from before the game has kicked off.
Its really time we moved on from that.
As I mentioned before, rebel songs arent religious. I understand why IRA songs arent, shall we say, viewed well in England. Also its not that long since the Manchester bomb and we all know, as bad as it was, how much worse it could have been. FWIW our songbook probably causes more outrage in ScotlandSong book aside, the way the Celtic fans get behind their team is a lesson to us all.
Ill agree as far as noise but singing about IRA, the pope etc....what F*** has that got to do with football and your team.....Its all religious bigotry which is not part of the game. Just because they accept it in scotland does not mean we have to accept it.
cant say Ive ever noticed that to be honestWhy do some of their fans wear Man Utd shirts?
Never been aware of them wearing Rags shirts. If anything any Celtic fans that I know or have come across hate United.
Must have done so last night as a wind up, like City fans bringing Rangers/Ulster flags to Celtic Park.
Childish stuff.
What was the thing with the mobile phone lights? Do they always do that with that song or was that to identify who was Celtic in our end? Nearly did it myself in response as thought they were challenging us to a competition for a moment.
Speaks volumes for the make-up of our support that Celtic think they can come in our end and take the piss in the numbers they did.
Can we put this numbers nonsense to bed. At most they had 1500 - 2,000 dotted around the stadium in the home ends and most although they cheered the goal behaved themselves. I was in the CB level 2 in my usual seat next to their so called executive fans. Apart from one who kept jumping up and down every time they crossed half way the rest were fine.Speaks volumes for the make-up of our support that Celtic think they can come in our end and take the piss in the numbers they did.
Oooo, tathis is the 50th anniversary season of winning the European Cup. Its a tribute to the Lisbon Lions hence the song "In 67, the Celtic went to Lisbon" and it being done in the 67th minute

Kicked off in 105 and people were coming over from 106-107 to have a go. A few Celtic fans left, one got chucked out. Stewards didn't have a clue or didn't care, they were nowhere to be seen.
They were goading City fans when they scored and when our goal was disallowed. What did they expect to happen?
Spoke to the steward in 105. He said there was nothing he could do. The 40 or 50 Celtic fans in there were 'friends of UEFA' and presumably are therefore entitled to behave like arseholes.
I'm in 104, close to 105, and the 'friends of UEFA' for the Gladbach game happened to be German and for Barca, Spanish. It's an absolute farce and last night was very unpleasant. Just glad I didn't take the kids. Two or three Celtic fans were extremely aggressive in their posturing. Standing up, staring menacingly at anyone they fancied singling out, making cutting throat gestures etc. I'd like to see what (if any) checks there are on what these so called 'friends of UEFA' are doing with their allocation because they're clearly selling the tickets on for every game.
I was in the family stand and there was an ugly scene after they scored.
Celtic fan celebrated and when pulled up about it got really gobby until stewards threw him out.
Took what seemed like ages for him to go and you could see that there was a lot of scared young Blues.
Apart from that horrible incident the rest were fine,although we are talking about a dozen or so who were sensible enough to behave and get on well with all around them.
Everybody knows Roberts is one of our own.I dont know how big your family stand is but there were at least a dozen, probably more, in the part where I was. I had a good time and part of that was the city fans around me who were quite knowledgeable about football - apart from not realising Roberts was one of your own - and overall very impartial when discussing the game
Everybody knows Roberts is one of our own.
Apart from that I agree with you.
All it needs though is one clown to spoil it for others.
I was in 239 by the way.
