    Huge.

    Been going to the games since I was 5 and lucky enough to have been a season ticket holder for the last 24 years.

    As long I'm healthy enough and have the finances to do so then I can't imagine not going to the games.

    Was accepted into the University of Galway for a Law Degree and turned it down as I couldn't move away from Celtic. For some that will seem insane but I guess everything happens for a reason.

    A bad result still affects my mood but I've got a little better in the last few years in dealing with it. There's more to life than football but for me it's as Tommy Burns said, it's more than just a football club, it's a people and a cause.

    I've often thought what would come first, Celtic or family.

    Then it dawned on me. If one of the weans stands in front of the TV with a hatchet sticking oot his nut when Celtic are playing, I would go scripto.

    Celtic are THE most important thing in my life.

    Celtic is perhaps one of the only constants in my life amongst many changes. It has always played a massive part in my life; from the cradle to the grave probably.

    Celtic as an institution has probably helped shape my politics too, although it has not necessarily dictated it.

    This.

    I have said before whenever I moved to a new city the first thing I do is find the local CSC. I even went to the games when I was studying in Ireland :fear:

    Aye.

    Last two New Years games have brought out my self-destructive side and when I should have just switched the computer off to avoid the trolls and having more bets ( backed Celtic on the Asians both times) I have ended up putting pretty big bets on and taking a huge chunk out of my betting bank that will literally take me months to get back :triplomur

    Nobody trolled you....you should take a look at your past posts.
    You bite like * at anyone who has s different view from yourself.
    But you are a young Uber Tim.
    That's easy to work out,even for an old * like myself.

    Celtic is a complex state of mind, not at all easy to explain :smoke:
