    Ach Aye, its certainly the winter of discontent! A global pandemic. Social unrest! Grown men kicking down barriers at police officers, a board of Tory * and a club legend under the cosh. Who ever said its only a game ah fitba? Hail Hail! Keep the Faith, we can still win the ten!

    Thing is we will inevitably keep our hands in our pockets this Christmas now but these * will just blame COVID

    a few fans shouting some sweary words and chanting neil lennon out and some shouting at players in their cars and its called a riot

    ffs we really in the hyperbole hyper realistic internet age

    by tommorow it will be made to look by the papers the tv and government like world war 3 was going on outside celtic park

    ffs

    the board have been higly negligent if there had been fans in the stadium this would have been done and dusted a month or so ago and if the CULTURE AND TRAINING has been bad the board should have known all about it and yet they still done nothing

    and thirdly how come we dont have a players lounge already ?

    we are a £100m pound club with multi million pound players and other staff have a high class training complex but no * players lounge ffs

    and the psycologist is another one lennon said the other week we got one in to have a word with the players, why the * dont we have one full time ?

    really this board room every now and then bring us up to the levels we should be at and then allow us to gradually become an * joke it happend every 5 or so years

    Statement is appalling IMO. Timing and wording both shocking, with one saving grace being they mention ‘small’ number of fans - seems they remembered at the last minute who really keeps the * heating on while they’re sitting there bashing the keyboard.

    These * ought to remember they’re all * replaceable.

    No fan should be putting money into the club until serious change is made. Keep it in a jar and when these * get desperate and either leave or sort the problems then we can spend again.

    The utter contempt for this support is unreal.

    The problem the Celtic board have is the rat showed us how much better this club can be. He blew away the notion we had to be a mediocre club conceding titles to Huns every other year and losing domestic cups to Ross county.

    The genie is out of the bottle. They can rattle on about 12 trophies or whatever all they want.

    We as a support have a responsibility to completely reject mediocrity at this club or we will be back to 2010 in a heartbeat.

    Don’t let any * make you feel stupid for demanding excellence, because there’s a good chance they’re just trying to line their own pocket or make their own life easier.

    Disappointment Celtic... how about you talk to those that invested in a season ticket not knowing if this pandemic will leave them with a job next year. Or the money supporters spend on strips, memorabillia and that's not to mention Europe and travelling when allowed. Supporters that have invested in a season knowing they probably won't see the team they love and support play in front of them. £500/£600 may not seem a lot to you but it sure as * is to a lot of folk.

    How about you respect those that keep you in a comfy position before you start with the condescending behaviour!

    I've already slated the statement but I'm still raging. Basically reads "Begone peasant scum and not another peep from you until we want you to buy a DVD or renew your season ticket."

    Won't get me anywhere, but I'm gonna email them tomorrow to moan about the statement and how I feel as a fan who renewed for their * stream service during all this uncertainty, it might no be up there with flinging fences at polis motors but it's something. It's really * * me off, on top of the whole Lennon and team being * stuff.

    You can imagine some smug * sniggering as he wrote it. Some jobs-for-the-boys yes man that thinks he’s the business because he works for an *, mediocre executive branch of a football club.

    * would get a shock if we forced Lawwell out and he found himself on the bread line with the rest of us peasants.

    *.

    That's the thing, some folk moaning that the protest is uncalled for.
    Had we been in the stands you can * be assured twice as many folk would have stayed back after the Prague game and done exactly what we seen tonight.
    And it would be justified.

    This happens. It's happened before, fans get * off, they make a stance and chant some Nasty words to get a point across.


    Way some react to this, you'd think the only way forward is a politely worded hand written letter.

    The board and their out of touchness remind me of that Simpsons episode when Smithers tells Mr Burns the people weren't booing him, they were chanting boo-urns

    What are they chanting? Open that window!

    “LENNON LENNON GET TO FU..” window slams shut.

    They’re chanting Lennon’s name. They’re clearly showing support for him.

    Excellent, tell Neil he’s keeping his job!

    "Best Supporters" is birthday card pish, we paid good money for our season tickets if fans want to protest they have every right to.

    Well Celtic fans that tells you everything I said about these Tory *'s within our club they are destroying it within .
    The writing has been on the wall for Lennon for weeks but these true blue Tory *'s are quite happy see our club get humiliated in Europe and now beat by a Ross county team .
    We the supporters have the power to remove these people who are not Celtic men and have never have been and by keeping Lennon in a job it's goodbye to the ten and these people are quite happy see us being second best on the pitch .
    It will take organisation and coming together of supporters to remove these people and get real Celtic men running our club as we never accept second best .

    If any footballs were thrown at Barkas then that's shocking. Terrible to do that to someone who has no way to defend themselves.

    The board need to take their share of the blame for the disorder last night, they have been negligent in not acting much sooner and if they had done their jobs properly Lenny would have been dismissed after the first Prague game, even before or not appointed in the first instance!

    I think I slightly prefer huns to these Uncle Tim * that do nothing but criticise Celtic fans.

    Need to stand firm against these parasites on the board. Too long has winning papered over the cracks of their mismanagement.
