Celtic Thread - 2022/23

By the way my Celtic mates don't hate me and I'm English;)

Can you ask them to have a word with their mates explaining that it's looking bad.

To be fair mate we all have cracking Scottish mates after all they are just people like we are, but the sectarian nonsense drives them wild from both sides.

If it's not religion, it's nationality. It's now creeping into other aspects of life too.
Seems intolerance is on the rise worldwide.

Absolutely mate it's an us or them mentality.

Thought it was arrogant of Tony Bloom to think he could ask Ange to fuck Celtic off for mid table PL mediocrity.

That's why so many Home Counties posh boys (and girls) support Liverpool these days. They think they will get some street cred by being associated with a former working class club. They love slumming it when they come up to Anfield for matches but you don't see many of them drinking in the local pubs after the match because they are already back on the train to London. To be fair decent local Liverpool fans (yes there are some) mock this element of their own support.

There is a lot of second generation liverpool fans who also have absolutely fuck all to do with merseyside.
Sons of twats who chose liverpool in the 70s/80s

Im not sure liverpudlian liverpool fans do mock that element. And if they do they have no room to talk as every single one ive met , and ive met enough, is a fuckin odd fucker when it comes to football

I'm from Scotland and was brought up as a protestant Rangers fan. Lived in England 20 years of my adult life. I've moved back to Scotland and the bigotry I'd have wished it was gone but its not. I would not participate on it on any level. Both sides are bad. I've seen many things through my life in different countries. I regularly go to South Africa and see the affects of Apartheid. Lack of education and forward motion is something the human race struggles with.

“The loudest booing that we’ve seen over the last few weeks for the Queen” before the Scotland game I’ve just read on twitter

Not much talk of it on here surprisingly

The rage must be exclusively for one or two sets of fans when they disrespect the monarchy

You were doing okay as well, up until you got to "decent local Liverpool fans".

Been mentioned on the match thread. Those booing or who have staged protests either tonight or last weekend are basically just pondlife, whatever club they support.

This is what I don't understand as well. There will be Celtic supporters actually in the forces as we speak, a guy I went to school with is currently in the RAF, and there will be many who have lost their lives over the years as well.

I find it as confusing as Rod Stewart. An Englishman who thinks he's Scottish who supports a football team that wants to be Irish. To make matters worse, he's Sir Rod of course, knighted by the Queen, played at her Diamond Jubilee, and congratulated Boris on his Tory win. Celtic fans weren't happy at that, Green Brigade even had a banner that said Fuck off Rod.

Or how about Trevor Sinclair's tweet about racism the other week. He wants to ask Mark Walters about his welcome to Celtic Park.

Wasn’t Mark Walters also racially abused by Rangers supporters?
