Have no part of Ibrox farce

305

A constituency within Newco had enough of Celtic fans turning Ibrox into a party venue.  They decided an arrangement, that has been in place when Celtic visit Ibrox for longer than the host club has been in existence, had to stop, and convinced Newco to do their bidding.  Celtic were offered 700 tickets, an arrangement they reciprocated.

This is a farce, it is inherently unsafe, it incurs disproportionate police costs and Celtic should have no part of it.  Tell them the normal allocation of 7,500 tickets for visiting fans should be issued, or there should be no visiting fans whatsoever.

Celtic have an open invitiation to accomodate 7,500 fans or to reciprocate at a lower number.  In effect, this is a passive stance, ceeding the decision to one of Newco’s pressure groups.  It is time to take control, either there should be no visiting fans or a safe and appropriate number.  We cannot allow Scottish football to be ragdoll-ed by an angry fringe any longer.  I would be happy if we never saw them inside Celtic Park again.

    aye, best wishes and all that, its bloody tough the old surgery.

     

     

    keep it lit.

     

     

    eden mill on ice.

  2. Militao’s time wasting must set some kind of record. Absolute farce what he got away with in last 10 minutes.

  3. IniquitousIV on

    Madrid masters at disrupting things in the last few minutes. If City could do that, they would have won.

  4. Ref that big a cheat, he didn’t even play the 3 mins injury time, which should have been 5

  5. Supporters of my generation always loved Real, Di Stefano, Santamaria, Puskas and Gento, politics just didnae come intae it for us.

     

     

    I toured the Bernabeau a few years back the day after the signed Benzema, always looked out for him after that

     

     

    Outside in the queue or as we call it the lineup got talking to a whole school of young real fans complete with tops.

     

     

    When they asked who I supported I replied Celtic, they all cheered and chanted our clubs name, then they booed old firms ha ha

  6. What is the Starz on

    Best team won.

     

    Now can someone explain two big words I keep hearing

     

    One is QUADRUPLE which I think has something to do with 4 and the other is UNPRECEDENTED which I used to think was something to do with not having happened before ???

    Why the axxx licking for Man City on here, as financially doped as PSG. I have one team and one team only.

    It was a stonewall penalty for Madrid. Sick of this “the referee’s a cheat” nonsense and puerile crap about brown envelopes changing hands and “City were never going to be allowed to win this match”.

     

     

    They were ahead going into stoppage time. What did the referee do to take it to extra time? He wouldn’t have had a penalty to give if City had finished the job.

     

     

    If you hate football that much, why bother watching it? Take up knitting.

  11. Saw this on Twitter

     

    Since 2001, Spanish teams have played non-Spanish teams 16 times in European finals (Champions League and Europa League). Spanish sides have won all 16 finals.

     

     

    Real Madrid vs Liverpool next up.

  12. Going for a second goal and not closing that game down as the clock ticked down is why I live to watch city. My goodness though, the naivety is shocking. 13 times European cup winners Real Madrid showed Pep how to close a game down.

     

     

    Sevco 4/1 to reach the final tomorrow night, I think Liepzig will do them but after tonight, I’ve placed my consolation bet on the huns. Hopefully I lose my money.

    WITS

     

     

    Sky have been quite careful in the last few days to clarify that no English team has done what Celtic achieved in 1967. Someone has obviously had a wee word!

     

     

    BTW I believe Ajax have done it too – but we were, as usual, first!

  14. !!Bada Bing!! on

    Pep could win hee haw,and he’s spunked £100 million on Grealish………who if you paid £10 million for, you would want your money back

  15. What is the Starz on

    Thanks Billybhoy….but today’s Irish Times have a syndicate article from The Guardian (standard enough practice) which refers to unprecedented quadruple with no qualifications regarding nationality.

     

    Ah it just annoys me

    Thanks for your reply and I guess the tone of the evening would have been augmented by a good afternoon result,chances and if only now gone😊

     

     

    Noted your CCV comments he is an impressive player,I hope your wrong and the new team go to him again😊.its tough tho next door to £50x epl.it would be good for him to get CL experience leading to international cap CL could lead to WC for him.
