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.

Or Ian Wright or City legend Eyal Berkovic or more recently Wythenshawe's Shay Logan, all suffered at the hands of the Parkhead racist bigots
 
I was up in Glasgow for work this week, staying at the Radisson Blu in the city centre. Was checking out on Wednesday morning as the entire RB Leipzig team came down. I said well done lads, they just blanked me, silly old sauerkrauts.
 
Livingston 0-3 Celtic

Not only do Celtic get more money to spend each season than their opponents, have 10 x the home support…..but when they go away to Livingston they have 3 out of 4 of their stands which more or less home advantage AGAIN!
How unfair is that!
I know its all about selling more tickets but thank god its not like that in England.
At least here the locals would come out and support the local team for a big league game

Same when Rangers, Hearts and Hibs go to Livi, amazing they do so well when every other home game is almost an away
 
And as if by Magic, he’s back. I know you must have missed my presence, but I needed a break.

So, what’s been happening? A lot.

Before I give my assessment on Saturday when we face our pals, let’s do a quick recap of my highlights.

Getting better under Ange is like saying water will make you wet, obvious. More brilliant recruitment from our pet Kangeroo. Johnston came in to replace Juranovic and he looks like he’s been playing for us for years. Strong, fast, good technique can cross a ball and run all day.

Iwata looks great too, tidy, reads game well, good passer and will improve.

OH, a tank and good option, is getting better every game as he finds his feet. Looking forward to seeing him develop.

9 points clear and on a different level all over the pitch.

League Cup Final. We watched Rangers players do their talking in the press, where their delusion and inability to grasp the reality proved hysterical. Not one of their Players would get into our team, not even Stillman or Cartwell. A possibly only Tillman might make the bench. Raskin is a decent player, but lacks dynamism or that brilliant through ball. Oh and we won the Cup. Should have been 4.1 but we took the cup to signal another dark trophyless tunnel had just been entered for our good pals.

Champions League. Well after years of slagging us, we see Rangers take part and their contribution led to them winning the Worst Team in CL history award. I laughed my fucking arse off. They were utterly embarrassing, the Rangers press up here, tried to put us in the same bracket, but we played some great stuff but missed more chances than Morelos has had for redemption. We will return this year and hopefully we can stick at least three away.

Game on, Saturday. I think we will hammer them on Saturday. Of course if we don’t trap then our arse could be handed. But if we play it’s 12 points ahead and a title party.
Hatate, Mooy and Taylor will be fit, so that’s great news for one half of the city.

I look forward to the rest of the season and beyond to the summer window. If we sell a couple Ange will replace them with similar quality. We have money. We will spend it.

We have Bealin calling Ange lucky to have money as if that’s not allowed. When they were being bankrolled by the Bank of Scotland’s(Rangers Bureau) cash, not a peep. It is claimed Rangers are still circa £70m in debt, if that’s not accurate, I would be interested in the figure. We are circa £50m in the black already and with a minimum of another £25-30m in next years CL, the gap off the park is going to increase and we know what that means when you have a manager like Ange there.

We have assets to sell, which Rangers don’t. Haley’s Comet Kent,( the comet turns up more than Kent) will be away for nothing or retained on bigger wages than he deserves. Morelos has lost his battle with the Pies and also seems to be waddling out the door.

Every day the Rangers hacks are trying to get Ange to the Prem. The same guys who said he would be away for Christmas. Bellends.

Rangers fans must know that another period of 2 trophy’s in 11 years is a distinct possibility. If you don’t you’re mental.

Anyway, feel free to get involved. All comers welcome. No refunds and you might get rinsed.

Livingston are an artificial club dropped into an artificial town. The place is full of folk from edinburgh or west of Scotland. There’s more Hibs fans there than Livi fans.

Only good thing to come out of Livi was Paul Dickov.
