  1. The last Scottish Cup Final I was at was 1988.

     

    On my own. A solitary Tim in a sea of friendly strangers.

     

    I wasn’t surprised we won that day. We were Celtic. It was the Centenary Season. We just won. Right?

     

     

    Tommy Burns’ post match interview on that day encapsulates Celtic for me. First words are for the wee boy he’ll be up to visit on Monday. Then his family. Then the awareness of history. And finally the support. And his unbreakable bond with them. And us with him.

     

     

    This day for me is for TB. And for my mother who brought me up to support good, not creed. And nudged me towards the Green due to her love of the Lions, especially Jinky.

     

     

    So today I took my seat. Out of nowhere my ‘neighbour’ from Celtic Park sat down beside me. Chances of that?? No longer alone. Part of the biggest and best extended family there is.

    Great performance today. CalMac might be heading to the premiership at some point if he keeps this up.

     

     

    Just to top off a great day I’m hearing Rangers £10m striker is off to Turkey on loan. Waahaahaahaa. It’s great to be a Tim!

    Who said there were no more heroes?

     

    There are too many heroes to mention!

     

    Well done to the mighty Glasgow Celtic,

     

    earning, creating and making your own history.

  4. I guess that the Scottish media will report this double treble as little as possible, possibly with hopeful/hopeless rumours about the Ibrox team and their new manager. Took decades for BBC Scotland to find ‘lost’ footage of the 7-1 final.

  5. Nye Bevans' rebel soldier on

    Back home after a fantastic day, left Hampden and headed

     

    to Celtic Park well worth the lost drinking time.

     

     

    I’m physically and emotionally shattered in a good way, when

     

    the open top bus drove up the Celtic way I was in tears.

  6. 50 shades of green on

    My God, just seen the video of the bus parade,we have come a long way since the coal lorry eh,,,,

     

     

    ??????????????

    My thoughts went back to that too. Mind you, if the bhoys today had travelled on a coal lorry ,or even a bin lorry, it would still have been a heartwarming sight!

  8. Paul67 et al

     

     

    Just hope none of those fans at the Parkhead Parade are parked illegally.

     

    That’s all I’m saying!

  9. What a day 2×3 !

     

     

    Is this the time that CFC are sayin…..

     

     

    We are havin a parade (albeit its limited) .. & you need to tell us why we cant !.

     

     

    Another step in gettin rid of the toxic fc relevance & highlightin the usual…

    Surprised that Tory linesman didn’t spot the pull back on Moussa- though he was never going to shout PENALTY PENALTY PENALTY, was he?

  11. Today is quite special. We won the treble, just like last year, but this time I’m thinking about those who have been with us ages ago and have gone through really tough times seeing good football going unawarded while supporting our club even though the team couldn’t deliver a cup or a league win.

     

    What we are seeing today is completely new. The old Rangres cheated Scottish football 10 years long and eventually paid the price by going into liquidation. (How, after cheating for so long, you can still get into that situation is quite bizarre but the huns managed to do it).

     

     

    Scottish football have got to a near-level playing field – not quite while the 4th estate still has to look after its own customers …. and will always ensure there is a competitor worthy of the name rangers, but the only thing this entity has is a fan-base that says watp, which sounds hollower every season, just like playing tina turner at the old brick building.

     

     

    I’ve had the good fortune of seeing Celtic winning 9 in a row. At seeing Jimmy on the Wing and Bobby Murdoch playing football.

     

     

    While living in Germany I missed Henrick Larsson and Lubo, but thanks to football streams. I’m seeing Celtic history playing out via Brenden Rodgers

     

     

    Glasgow is nowadays green and white and the city should be proud and thankful that we have a football team and club that is Celtic – they should promote us and engage our future plans for the club and east end of Glasgow, but we still had to fight for permission to build a hotel and are still doing the same for adequate parking.

     

     

    We got an open-air bus through part of the city today so there you go…thanks

     

     

    We are Celtic – we are Glasgow

    Brendan Rodgers on when he might be lured back to England: “I’ve got 3 years’ contract left at Celtic. Three plus seven equals 10. It’s a big thing for the supporters. I have a responsibility to 60,000 passionate fans.”

  13. Not long home from a wonderful, amazing day at Hampden watching the Bhoys win the Cup and achieve the double treble, then on to Celtic park, watching from the Celtic Way as the open top bus brought them Home to Paradise!! Back tomorrow for more,

     

    This is what it means to be Celtic.

  14. Treble treble you’ve torn your dress, treble treble your face is a mess treble treble how could they know Hot tramp I love you so. Hh

  15. The Calton and Gallowgate are bouncing. Nipped across to Morrison’s for wine and cider and the whole East End looks to be awash with sea of green and white.

     

     

    See that Celtic support – magical.

    I was at the 1988 final and didn’t see the t.v. coverage. On the Monday morning a woman who worked for me and who was a BIG Rangers fan couldn’t stop talking about Tommy Burns after match interview. She was genuinely moved.

  17. Jim

     

     

    I was oblivious at the time. But the interview so fitted with how I was feeling.

    till later all thank you for being here.

  19. BIG-CUP-WINNERS on

    Went down to the ground for the bus returning. Several thousand fans of all ages present. I usually go down after a cup win, sometimes there is maybe 2 or 300 just.

     

     

    This is a winning idea and hopefully the club will continue this at future triumphs.

    Love your parents for making it so.
