In all seriousness.
I know we wind each other up.
But if you are looking to find Level 5…..you are missing the mark.
Look around….its not me you should be bothered by
More than a few posters will tell you that.
Im an open book….anybody from this blog could get hold of me at any time….including you.
Try Mats/Pastry/Alfie for example.
You are barking up the wrong tree.
Think about it a bit.

“I suspect the time to start celebrating will be when the half-time whistle blows in Israel with the score at 0-0.”
Tom,
It’s Celtic we are talking about.
2-0 up in time added on for stoppages in the 2nd half before I start counting my chickens ;))

I doubt The Celtic Trust have any involvement there at all.
IMO,of course.
============================================================
Bobby.
Too much coincidence for my liking.
A reasonable person would be entitled to be suspicious.
This at the same time as the G.B. were displaying their upside down banners against John Reid.

If there is a sanction from UEFA which involves a partial stadium closure hopefully it will include the Director’s Box. The PLC are quick enough to make a profit from the ‘Old Firm’ brand and say very little while Season Book Holders and other supporters are cheated out of their money to watch a rigged and toxic Scottish sectarian game.
Yea yea yea, at least I know who UEFA, the plc at Celtic park, UEFA have rules, CFC supporters must like every club play under them, so who was it that groomed kids to hold up the Palastine flags last night, you don’t know but you back the an unknown organisation? I find that very strange.
A few people on today with their fishing rods ….
Only hope they are smiling when they catch someone and it’s not vindictive..
HAIL HAIL
On other matters.
Ticket office on Tuesday. Attendant told me only a few hundred seats left. Sections 118 and 419. And a few hundred restricted view.
Last night the place was packed out. I could see empty areas in the high corners and behind the pillars. And the daft 2rows of seats uefa rule. But everywhere else packet out. Easy to estimate an attendance of 58000 .
Today reports say it was 52400.
No way. Don’t seem correct at all.
By the way. Noise level . quite incredible

I’m not sure if you’re being disingenuous or you’re just really thick.
Either way, there’s enough information floating about to allow UEFA to treat the Irish Tricolour the same way they treat the Palestinian flag if they wanted to.
The reason they don’t may be that there’s not a particularly powerful lobby to have the Irish Tricolour banned.

Wish I had been in Paradise last night the atmosphere was champions league at its best, Celtics goals were outstanding and those two hapoel goals apart Celtic were by the far the better team and should be able to clean up next week. The armchair warrior Trotskys didn’t let me down either with their wee bunting display. I hope it was worth it. Hail hail.
Tony why do you use that groom kids line ?
JOE FILIPPIS HAIRCUT on 18TH AUGUST 2016 11:07 AM
Mate.
I was there and did all of that.
I never cost the club one penny.
Nor would have.
That`s the difference.
Happy birthday LENNYBHOY,many hoopy returns. :)

‘so who was it that groomed kids to hold up the Palastine flags last night,’

Who knows.
Maybe it was a priest, because priests groom kids, if you know what I mean, don’t they?
Yeah, yeah , yeah, we get your drift.

Tony why do you use that groom kids line ?
Ehhhhhh! Because that’s what they are doing.
I earn over £5000 per hour, I am 37 years of age and was out of work. I was told I’d never work again.
My new boss avoided jail time by paying a huge fine and he has told me not to worry about paying bills.
He runs a new company with thousands of bigoted customers who pay me lots of money no questions asked.
My workplace is a health hazard but no-one seems to care, the authorities let our company away with whatever we like.
If you would like a retirement plan like mine, give me a shout @#Clint Hill.

Like you I have my opinion, and I’v seen them at work, that’s what they do, groom kids to cause it.
Regarding the discussion on flags — I was hoping for a bit more originality from the politically demonstrative section of the support.
We were not playing the Israeli NT — we were playing a club side with their own specific history, traditions and world view, some of it very close to our own so make the most of the positives.
Reverting to a one dimensional response was student politics porn instead of the mature and constructive demonstration it could have been.
The story of the wind and the sun having a competition over the or guy with rain coat comes to mind …
Wind = Palestinian flags and nothing else — old hat to the point of boredom.
Sun = Try something different, make a statement that invites discussion.
My thoughts would have been a few green and white versions of the HBS badge — we love our hammer and sickles, even me — and also the Israeli flag.
Lesson from the 80’s — the Post Office / GDC sponsored NMP street rename was the perfect FU to the White SA government. It was cheap, easy to do and destroyed their confidence and their worldview.
The same level of ingenuity and out of the box thinking would have gone down well last night.
The progressive side of Israeli society needs all the friends they can get.

Lol…never thought of that, yip 54, going for 55, more chance of reaching that record than oldco ( because they cannae as they’re dead) and newco because they will go by the way of oldco long before 54.
Keep the Faith!
Hail Hail!
And I will continue to use that word too, because I’v been told it doesent sit very well with a couple of organisations affiliated with CFC, why? Don’t ask me, it’s them that’s doing it, stop it and let the kids enjoy supporting the club,

T….you spout some nonsense.
Really…me a level 5 helper.
And….its not your club…..its mine and everybody else’s
And….your opinion is so beyond the realms of fantasy, that it is embarrassing.
Grooming, Malcontents….what the feck are you all about.
You sound like a man in crisis.
You need to understand the difference fiction and reality.
Get a grip. reds under the beds is it….or the Germans are coming.
Dads Army right enough….Dont Panic
Nothing but dirty scum bags carrying out executions in what is predominantly a family resort. For those of you who holiday in Santa Ponsa this execution took place less than a 100 yards away from The Square where on a night like last night would have been mobbed with Celtic supporting families. Take your bloody feuds back to the streets of Dublin and let families holiday without fear of getting caught up in your territorial distribution disputes

A) Including me.
B) I`m sceptical about coincidence. Particularly repetitive coincidence.
So Ernie should the Union flag be banned by UEFA given Britain’s ongoing involvement in conflicts across the globe?
Offski.

On the game I was asked yesterday if I was confident of a win. “We’ll at least we won’t lose a 2 goal lead like v Malmo” was my reply.
So that was worrying when it happened and as BR himself said post match we are not the finished article. However by full time we showed an ability to recover that was missing last season, so onwards and upwards.
Now next bit is a philosophical look at the flags issue so scroll on.
Human beings I read somewhere are naturally predisposed to do what they think is right. The way that they fail to do that is to tell themselves wrong is right.
The argument for showing support for the Palestinians is that it is the loving thing to do which is a hard argument to counter for clearly there is much suffering there to address, but the reasons are historical, complicated and suffering knows no borders.
In trying to establish what is the loving thing I’ve personally been influenced by the words in a book called Unconditional Love by John Powell SJ where his advice was “check your motives”.
That at the end of the day makes it personal for no one can truly know the motives of another and the fact that we even have to do it for ourselves suggests how hard it is to be honest about them.
The dilemma being faced by those making the choice is by waving a flag am I doing the right thing towards my fellow Celtic supporters?Who will my action affect most directly and here is the key for me, am I prepared to pay the price of my principles?
That is the judgment call being made by those taking action whose motives only they can know.
It is their fellow supporters who provide the platform on which the flag bearers show their support and just as a guest to a party has to respect the house owners rules or not attend that is the judgment call being made here.
If someone else is paying the price for my principles then they aren’t really mine and this is where the flag demonstration falls down in my opinion.
There has to be another way found that is not only respectful to the cause that does deserve attention but to those providing the platform on which to make it.
If it is UEFA that are wrong then why not take the argument to them?
An advert in a Swiss newspaper for example that I’m sure would obtain the funding from a large swathe of the support might prove more effective and allows folk to pay for their principles.
Doing the loving thing is never easy. In fact it usually calls for a sacrifice on the part of the person or persons doing it. Christianity is based on that very principle.
Waving flags at a game is easy but that does not mean those doing so did not have the right motivation. Only they know, so they can judge themselves but for me doing the right thing has to be done in the right/loving way otherwise it is an empty clashing of cymbals.

Crowd of 52/53K seemed about right to me.
Odd seats not taken up plus some gaps in the to tier.
Not all the away seats were taken plus the limited view ara in the SW segment was a bit sparse.
However great atmosphere.
The PA guy mucked about with YNWA starting it too early with a lot of people not in their seats.
Great support from all around the ground.

Priest? I haven’t a clue if a priest was there or not? Nor do I have any idea who was protesting, as I’v said the cowards won’t man up, maybe the ones in here backing them know? Ask them, or yourself even, as I said earlier your on the flag horse , yes ? No ?
More happy days…

Macjay,
‘Are you a Hun?’
It seems the Sevco supporting fraternity are up in arms this morning. Are you going to contact @#Clint Hill to see how he is making a fortune for doing feck all:))

I don’t want to patronise you (that means, talk down to you).
But I fear you have left me no choice.
I am not advocating that UEFA ban the Tricolour.
I am pointing out that the logic they have applied to ban the Palestinian flag could just as easily be applied to the Tricolour.
As to whether the Union Jack could likewise be banned I would suggest that’s as likely as the Israeli flag being banned.
Because UEFA will always side with the strong against the weak. That’s where the money is.

THE PA GUY, needs to be told when to turn of you’ll never walk alone, and let the fans sing it, that’s three times this season he’s done it. It annoys me no end :))
