    Just curious...

    Do you just follow Celtic? And just games involving Celtic?

    Are you someone who will watch any game that is on, no matter who it is?

    If there are other clubs you follow, who are they?

    Or Scottish Football in general? Premiership? Lower Leagues? Juniors? Kids?

    If Celtic is not playing, do you have a preference if there are multiple other games happening? Say there is a SPFL game, say for argument's sake, Aberdeen v Hibs, happening and an EPL game at the same time, is there one league that you are more likely to follow or have a preference for?

    What about the English game? Or other European leagues & competitions?

    And around the globe?

    Is it just club football you follow or internationals as well? If so, which national team/s?

    As much as you possibly can, doesnt matter who?

    How many games of football would you watch/listen to on average per week?

    Celtic and Scotland and that's it.

    Can't remember the last time I watched anything else. I will occasionally catch Fiorentina goals or that through their IG but I don't go out of my way to watch, and I always look out for Arbroath's results. If my local junior team have a big game I will go along. Other than that I couldnt care less about other games.

    Take a keen interest in all football to be honest! There’s certain teams I keep an eye out for sentimental reasons like Liverpool because my dad and brother support them and my grandad worked there for years as well as Porto (yes I know) because I lived there for a year, but I also keep a look out for certain managers to see how they’re faring, for example Conte at Inter and Ancelotti at Everton.

    Yeah I watch any and all football. Not as much as I used to because life admittedly gets in the way, but I was watching Palmeiras v River Plate in the semi final of the Copa Libertadores last night and I'll be watching Boca v Santos tonight. The league outside of Scotland I keep the closest eye on, is La Liga.

    Mostly just Celtic. Will occasionally watch some EPL if its on in the background. Will watch MOTD on a Saturday if I'm having a beer.

    TV is saturated with football now.

    I watch loads of football. Outside of Celtic I tends watch another two or 3 games each weekend. Usually EPL or Bundesliga. Plus midweek matches.

    Coach an U13’s team as well so I’ve missed a number of Celtic games over the last couple or years because of that.

    As much as I love Celtic, I love the sport as well. Can’t imagine only watching our games and nothing else.

    As well as watching Celtic I also like to watch the EPL, Champions League and the international football. I haven't watched as much as I used to due to the lack of crowds at games now as they played a big part of the enjoyment when watching football.

    Hardly any now other than our games, I just can’t get into it with no or very little fans in attendance. I much prefer the NFL now if being honest with myself.

    Celtic & Scotland.

    Sometimes I watch Germany/Wales/Ireland etc. if they're playing England.

    Occasionally I'll go to see the local team down here.

    But as others have said, it's harsh with no fans.

    I used to able to just sit and watch any game that was on but the past couple of years I haven't been bothered.
    Even match of the day I haven't watched in donkeys.
    I probs watch German footy most outside of Celtic

    I watch a lot of football I suppose. Love the Bundesliga, but mostly out with the top 5 leagues. Hardly watch any English football for instance. I'll just look and see if there are any interesting games on, like if Ajax or Feyenoord are playing Alkmaar and I've got time I'll watch it. Or Salzburg are playing LASK linz or whatever. I always take an interest in small clubs who're doing things in Europe. Also if Celtic are linked with a player I might watch some of their games.

    Only watch Celtic matches except if Scotland win and England get beat then will watch highlights.
    Otherwise, i just check results that are relevant to updating the worlds top scorers list on this site so AC Milan, Bayern Munich, Juventus, Atletico Madrid, Barcelona.

    I used to be football mad. Especially back in the day when Champions league was on ITV. But now I just watch Celtic or Everton games.
