It's going to be hilarious when Postecoglu drops Celtic like a stone and buggers off to somewhere like Sheffield United.
You'd have thought the Celtic fans would have learnt their lesson after Rodgers.
So what you're saying is don't enjoy anything too much because it'll have to come to an end at some point?

The thing that was annoying me was the Viaplay ads I heard in the lead up to the League Cup final where the voice-over guy kept on saying "Fit-bah" whereas I say (and always consider the correct way of saying it) "Fit-baw". The former always sounds to me like an English person trying to say it (like when Max Rushden does Fitba corner on the Guardian podcast).
I was going to say the exact same thing about the Viaplay ad. Felt really shoehorned in as well. "Its Scottish fitba and the bragging rights are at stake".

John copper on bullseye (what a programme ,no game show today would have the presenter handing out cash prizes from a wedge from his pocket )a few weeks after being on the game show he killed two people , had already killed two people before appearing on the show ,a cold case review and his appearance on the game show helped to convict him years later ,one of the pictures below was a police sketch from a witness at the time
Similar thing happened in America with Rodney Alcala AKA The Dating Game Killer.

Think their hatred for Ross, or him coming to their attention, started with his “RED CARD, RED CARD, RED CARD” sending off of Simunovic at ibrox for his challenge on bougherra. His place in society since then has only enhanced their hatred.
Bougherra had left Rangers 7 years before that game haha!

Normal price at Easter Road (and elsewhere) for a game v Saints = half empty stadium
Charge a tenner and a fiver and it is a near sellout
Hmmm....
Just to play devils advocate here it would be interesting to see how many people are going as it is a cheap one-off compared to how many would go if the prices were that cheap week in, week out.

Cheap crisps wise has to be tangy toms

Shame we don’t get these over here.

Interested in the context of you response ?
Just the idea that due to the rivalry between Celtic and Rangers we should get rid of both teams. Let’s just get rid of River Plate and Boca Juniors while we are at it.0 -
A hatred like no other A hatred that goes so far back in history it should have been dead and buried years ago.

We are different people. You are happy to support a team that has a vast financial advantage over 10 of the other 11 teams in the league, to the point where (in my opinion) the satisfaction that can be taken from any success is negated by the amount of money spent in order to achieve it.
If St Mirren had a Scottish Cup tie against a Lowland League club for example, and after a poor display we score a 94th minute winner I can guarantee the support wouldn’t be acting anything like the way the Celtic fans were today. I’m not saying you can’t celebrate the goal, obviously a last minute winner will be celebrated, but to have such a massive financial advantage like Celtic did today over St Johnstone, and have pitch invasions, fans chasing after players to hug them, guys running about with their tops off is just strange imo. That’s not even mentioning the players over dancing at the end of the game like they had just qualified for the Champions League final.
Im not expecting you to agree with me because I imagine you’ve been a Celtic fan for a few years and all that will seem normal to you, but that’s just my opinion. From the outside looking in it seems like most Celtic victories are very hollow achievements, and deep down in the back of their minds the fans know this, so they overcompensate when celebrating things like today so they can all kid on to themselves that what they done was worthy of pitch invasions etc, and not the reality that a team stacked with international players and bought for a combined £50 million quid, scored a last minute goal to see off a team that was put together for almost nothing.
If that’s something you can genuinely take satisfaction from then fair play, you are correct and we are not the same. I think the novelty of regularly sticking 4 or 5 goals past 10 teams in the league not even remotely on the same level as you, season after season, would wear pretty thin quite quickly for me.
People always seem to forget in these instances why matches are played i.e. to contest who wins the league. If Celtic hadn’t scored that last minute goal then rangers would have been level on points. Surely you realise the fans are celebrating winning the game in the 96th minute and taking 3 points rather than specifically beating St.Johnstone?1 -
Anyone else hear the Inverness chairman making a dig about the show not covering championship teams? Seemed to get wound up fairly easily about the play off as well!

Your missing the point. I’m not saying it’s okay to throw things on the pitch, just that it wasn’t a banana which obviously has racist connotations. Would the person who originally mentioned it have brought it up if they knew it wasn’t a banana? No

It was found out about 10mins after full time that it wasn't a banana. Almost as if people see what they want to see.

I see Ange Postecoglou is in the Times today saying that other Scottish teams need to do more in Europe.
Glasgow Celtic:
- Lost seven of fourteen games last year
- Were knocked out of three competitions
- Haven’t won a knockout tie since 2004, a date that is closer to the Chernobyl disaster than it is to the present day
Any quotes backing this up or are you just going off the clickbait headline?

Open goal for the producers to say Gemma raised Jaques heart rate most.

The general consensus is that Celtic and Rangers get the majority of the decisions against lesser teams. So surely if the televised games (most likely including Celtic/Rangers every week) are refereed to a higher standard then this should benefit the lesser teams?

Will English pundits ever learn?

No fan of either of the uglies but it has to be said that a Scottish club getting to a major European final is a greater acheivement than Celtic or Rangers winning the Scottish League.
Might be wrong but I thought it was just awarded on games played in domestic football? That’s a whole other discussion in itself though.0 -

"As well as this there has been a continual failure from anyone – Hearts, Hibs, Aberdeen – to systematically believe they could challenge the status quo. All the non-Old Firm pack start off each season with the belief that the best they can do is finish third in the league and maybe win a cup: it is a philosophy which breeds being second-best and not trying to win."
Fair enough mate. "not trying to win" good grief.
