    Knew that one was coming. Vito Corleone was in the Mafia and murdered hunners of folk. Di Canio never murdered anybody and get it corrected, Di Canio had a facist political outlook, I dont know where your getting this whole racist thing from, he wasnt a racist

    Mo Camera and Paul Telfer, especially PT made me embarrassed to see them pull on the hoops.

    Everyone has had their fair share of good and bad signings but if they were ever Celtic quality, then I'm a hun.

    I've played with better players and reckon I would have done a better job than them.

    His style of play was aggressive pressing, Strachan didn't like it and dropped him, I thought he was decent for us in the short time he played.

    If he was a racist...would he have got any managerial jobs in England? Like Ron Atkinson came out with racist comments and will never get another job in England. Di Canio didnt do any of that. Thats an unsubstantiated accusation

    Thomas Gravesen was one of those players that you really wanted to do well. He should have been a superstar for us. He wasnt great at listening to the manager's orders and I dont think Strachan got on with him too well in the finish up. Juninho falls into that category too - another one that should have been a superstar but it never quite went for him up here

    Paul Telfer was not as bad as you say. I call you a hun.

    Feel as if he was made a scapegoat. No way was he as bad as some make out. And I doubt you've played with better players to be honest...

    You're calling me a hun? That means you think he's Celtic class... Who's he been better than in his position?

    telfer was part of a team that got us to the last 16 of the champs league ffs. So yeah he qualifies as Celtic class. You're saying he embarrassed you when he pulled on the hoops. That's statement itself is embarrassing.

    I understand he wasn't everybody's cup of tea but he did a job and he did it well imo. Might not have been the flashiest but I cant remember ever slating his workrate or desire.

    So because he was part of a team that got to the last 16 of the CL, that makes him Celtic class? I think we'd have got there with Mark Wilson in that position, who was better in my opinion but not pals with Strachan. He's (PT) up there with the worst I've seen pull on the hoops.

    Also, I'm sure Ambrose (first one who came to my head) was in the squad to beat Barca and get to the last 16 but if someone was to say he wasn't Celtic class, many would agree. And to say that Telfer was better than him, for us, would be heavily debated.

    Fascism does not mean you are racist.
