Official Celtic statement

For starters, naming the bhoy who is alleged, not guilty, to have done this heinous deed is a disgrace. Banning him is a disgrace. Divide and conquer tactics from Celtic.

Lawwell's comments about these bhoys not being fans, and them being an embarassment, are a disgrace also. I know who I'd rather stand beside on the terraces and it's not the suited self-loathing slimeball.

Mr Forgetful's snide remarks about the fans are a disgrace as well, he has a very very short memory. * knows where he would be without the backing of these supporters who stood by him through thick and thin.

A sad day to be a Celt in my eyes.

P.s. Didn't stick this in the GB thread as it has absolutely nowt to do with them.

 

5... 4... 3... 2...

 

Your right, the *-holes currently in charge are attempting to divide the support.

Sack the Board.

 

What a * *

 

It is really quite appaling to name the guy. I'd be looking at my legal options if I was him.

The whole thing is a disgrace.

* bang on mate.

 

dont think banner was smart but everybody knows uefa are a laughing stock who dont have a clue ,them men in charge are constantly involved in corruption.Peter lawell should remember that without the fans celtic are nothing and he will be remembered as the man who let a bankrupt club run over the top of celtic

 

A reputation earned, Mr Lawwell on the back of a friendly support who mixed wherever they went and sang their songs and respected their hosts.

Nothing has changed, we are still the same support who won the fair play award in 2003.

 

Well done to the club for taking action.

 

Jesus christ, innocent until proven guilty and they write assault yet it was alleged assault when our own manager was attacked on live TV

Naming and shaming is a disgrace IMO whether he did it or not.

 

A guy who apparantly assaulted a Celtic steward? What is wrong with you?

 

Exactly pal, exactly! I mean they should never name someone who is 'alleged' to have done something. Innocent until proven guilty, but if it turns out he's guilty then * Ross Connolly and everyone like him.

 

And that justifies it? No, it doesn't Celtic Football Club have said time and time again that they don't want this kind of behavior around their club. If people want to do it, can they not do it somewhere else? The club has made it clear they want nothing to do with it. These fans are acting like spoiled kids. Why is there this huge sense of entitlement to do whatever you like? UEFA and Celtic are allowed to make decisions about the kind of behavior they will allow. If you don't like that, too bad. If you are in a pub and the owner doesn't like the way you behave, you are out. You are free to complain OUTSIDE the pub, but don't going back in. In the same way, don't keep attaching yourself to a club which has openly denounced your actions.

The debate isn't about if the behaviors of the fans should be allowed. The fact is Celtic don't want that behavior, so respect their wishes and take it elsewhere, instead of arguing because it gets you no where.

Oh and yes we supported Lennon immensely in the past, but lets not use that as a sort of emotional blackmail. He should be allowed to criticize for * sake.

 

This.

 

what a silly stupid banner to put up in the first place . '* uefa' What age are they like

Embarassment to the club .

 

He should not have been named, especially if legal action could be taken. However if he has done what has been reported then let the law deal with him.
The club has just been fined, and someone shows that kind of banner.
UEFA would have watching the celtic support behaviour last night and we have just given them more cause to take more action against the club.

 

Think the board and Lenny have forgotten what they have done doubt they'll be supporting them now, quite rightly. Very silly banner though ovb was going to be all over paper and getting in trouble.

 

Expect no more helping hands from UEFA anytime soon.

Ps- isn't flares legal in italion stadia?
