What happens to the Loving Cup ceremony then? Are the Celtic directors invited or excluded? And if they are invited, do they toast the monarch? Tbh they probably get together and have a rare old time, just with an agreement in place that no pics or record of events are made so the mouth breathers don't find out. It's really all just about maintaining the duopoly and keeping the rest of us feeding off scraps. The bigotry and hatred are all just part of their disgusting money making machine that keeps all their braindead followers lapping it up and coming back for more and parting their hard earned. A couple of wee malts in a funny cup Peter? Don't mind if I do John, thanks. Edited January 2 by 'WellDel 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah the idea that over the years they have found people who can successfully run big businesses AND believe the utter shite they feed to the idiots that fill their coffers is for the birds. Undoubtedly laugh together at the profit they have made out of division and hate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squirrelhumper Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 17 hours ago, gannonball said: Kilmarnock board doing themselves absolutely no favours with the stereotypes here I'm not overly happy about it but every team except Celtic do it. Celtic probably do it, just ask it not be put on the big screen. Probably agree to it at the same time they are renewing the "Old Firm" trademark. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJF Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 I particularly liked that part of this years ceremony when the Loving Cup was passed around, everyone had a wee modest, respectable sip until it arrived with the last Kilmarnock official and he got wellied in with quite a few large gulps of whisky 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That whisky is about 15 years older than the club. 16 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 The irony of the most hateful club, their history and their fans, having a "loving cup" ceremony. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevie Kirk Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 I was aware of this weird Loving Cup ceremony but wasn’t clear on the origins. Just read it has to do with toasting the monarchy and let out a big sigh They can’t fucking help themselves and will for all eternity be a lost cause . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
