Hang on, so Monchengladbach weren't fined for their pyros at Paradise? Surely not?

 

Anyway, love this, the amount of lights in the home end

 

If disciplinary proceedings have been opened against us then why none against Man City?

Especially given that the "disturbances" were between opposition fans.

 

Be careful a shop near me sold buckfast for a fiver. Was fake and fined. Costs £5.51 at cost -4% if there on the cash back scheme but more likely 2%

Either selling it for a loss for custom hoping people buy other stuff too or its fake or somehow he knows my job better than me and has found a magic fairy land selling it cheaper than anyone else can get.

Had a look at the page and I can confirm that Gladbach weren't fined and disciplinary proceedings weren't even opened. Copenhagen were on the same evening.

I'm not saying that they should be, but you have to be consistent. I guess the "big 4" are immune.

 

Wow. That's incredible.

 

Barca was hit after a Catalan display a few months back.

 

Ahhh more fines, just in time for the Uefa Christmas party then yeah?

Any one think we could be looking at stadium closure as bad as it sounds? no denying the fact although very petty fines, we have been fined quite a lot recently!

 

On another note, while personally I don't have a big issue with flares, why do people keep doing it when they're well aware that the club is consistently being punished for it?

That's stupidity.

 

Aye but that was because the Spanish government and f.a. lobbied heavily for them to be fined. * sake they wanted to ban the estelada from the cup final last year and the secessionist organisations said they would hand out saltires to everyone in protest.

 

No

 

Something very sinister happening and quite frankly I'm not sure what Lawwell's game is round these big Uefa meetings etc, or Dermot Desmond..

Do we just sit back and keep being prosecuted, whilst the majority of Europe are far worse and repeat offender's.... Yet nothing is done..

 

"Going home British soldiers"

 

Its just really part of it, how many away fans in European games don't let off flares? seems to happen in just about every game you see except maybe Spanish fans and English fans. Pretty much all German, Italian, Dutch, Polish, Russian and everyone elses fans let off flares.

If you bow down to flares then how long would it be before it was standing an then songs and offensive banners, before you know it decades down the line football's been reduced to the Theatre or Cinema. "Mon in buy your £80 ticket, have a £6 pie and £8 coke, sit and enjoy the show and then leave in an orderly fashion, thank you!"

 

Glad you have cleared that one up for me

 

That's definitely not prop you've been getting then

Agree with what you say though, the pyro ban is nonsense & laughable the same * they say how it can kill people. Look across some eastern European sides, would be hundreds dead every game if the fumes were bad

 

I think it's farcical that Celtic can be disciplined and Man City let off with no punishment, when no evidence has even been heard yet. Even more farcical when you consider that the crowd "disturbances" were between both sets of supporters.

* UEFA.

 

Aye, no even 24 hour's later and we're charged, yet all the reporting was from in City's end

Even on that blue moon *'s were saying City fan's were restless and some fighting amongst themselves, as well as digging our fan's out who'd got in the home end's..

 

The loudness, the ripping the pish out them and the couple of thousand tims in their area did have them raging, us playing really well must have added to it as well. They were definitely riling and arguing and that among each other and even at the end loads of Celtic fans were dancing about singing in big groups getting it up them as they left the stadium and were having to be held apart, Celtic fans in one of their upper tiers untied one of their flags and lobbed it down at them then hung over a big tri colour as well and could see them all aruing and shouting abuse up at them.

They've probably not seen a team take over their park and get it up them like that before. Cracking atmosphere.

 

think I remember seeing that at the time.

you shouldn't be hit for that * sake.
