“My father wasn’t at all keen on me becoming a Rangers supporter. He was a Glasgow policeman and because of that he resented the whole football scene in Glasgow. ‘He was actually very anti-football. When we were kids growing up he was very vocal on his dislike of the bigotry in football. The police in Glasgow at that time saw it as a basis for thuggery.
“My father took me to that first game reluctantly…”
Dave King, shooting the breeze with the Daily Mail in March last year.
“Like all of you who read this letter, I have always taken pride in being a Rangers supporter. It is something I inherited from my father who, in turn, inherited the legacy from my grandfather. This is what Rangers fans do. We pass on our pride and belief in Rangers to our children.”
Dave King’s letter to the season ticket marketing database last week.
One of the two statements is probably true, although with Dave, who knows? South African judge, Brian Southwood, referred to King as a “glib and shameless liar”. Despite this, the SFA decided he was an appropriate person to run a football club, free to send out messages like this, with the objective of relieving fans of an average of £411 per person. This is what happens when you enable people already branded a shameless liar, what do you expect?
I hope the SFA and Trading Standards are alerted to what’s going on, don’t leave it until it’s too late.
I’m waiting for new of the Ben Nevis Huddle, which should have taken place at the peak of the mountain in the last hour. Over 80 people set out on the climb this morning to raise funds for the Celtic Foundation – to feed the hungry, provide shelter for the homeless and help others in need.
It’s a magnificent Celtic effort. My wee brother’s up there, you can give his fundraising a pound or two here. Thank you.

Offside.
Looked offside to me as well.
Who cares
The officials have been awful for both teams, blatant offside
Just as predicted
A Murphy knock down to Walters
Offside not spotted
Never, play to the whistle.
FTSFA
Ref is obviously a Hun :-)
Dallas
Yeah, agree with all that.
Although seldom repeated away in Europe unfortunately, our victory in Amsterdam in CL qualifier springs to mind as a great example of MON’s tactical ability. A great example of pace, power and clinical finishing and not a punt up the park in sight.
Even allowing for the dodgy goal this is a dreadful display of football. H H Hebcelt.
Need changes at HT ..
Wee Annya on (spelling)
Brucie .. Aff!
Hebcelt
Dreadful is putting a positive spin on it
We can’t go into the CL qualifiers with Charlie at centre half.
Was gonna say Mulgrew ..
He shouldn’t be wearing a Celtic top .. Never mind Scotland ..
Forsyth has made six bad individual errors
He will not see the second half
Ireland have Enya
orinokoflowcsc
That should have been a corner to Ireland, ah well that evens out the “Goal” decision. e:
Enya: greatest hits after this ..
Chill!!
:)
Naismith and Broony keech . Hutton shouldn’t be on the park…..any pitch! Ritchie looks like the only hungry player to me, an mare agile Kris Commons lookalike . Get wee Anya oan!
Make that 7 errors
Bring back Bertie McVogts!
Awe well .. Aw Ireland ..
Nae complaints ..
Offside or no
Good to see the SFA Works Team being undone by an Honest Mistake.
So teams in green do get decisions – can we have that linesman transferred to Scotland?
Murphy was offside winning the corner and Walters was offside scoring from it.
Half Time, Frantic game lacking in quality but I think most people are getting what they expected. Dodgy goal guess we will get in analysed at half time.
Poor game. Shocking decision by officials to let goal stand. How bad is Forsyth?
Scotland need to get Anya on and someone into midfield with Brown.
Right Strachan get McGeady on
Very missable first half.
I’m away to watch my tomatoes grow.
Time for tunes
Wolverines -general Munroe
Oldskool
What club does Forsyth play for he is very very poor
Marty,
Rochdale bowls club.
Screaming bin lids
Running up hill
About Bloody Sunday in Derry .. Not well known but powerful
Browns havin a off day!!
Whatever the result, these two sets of fans deserve to be at the finals next year in France.
Noise, song, colour, passion, and dare I say it, love of football…
Would prefer Scotland, but as long as one of them makes it
;o)
Although he hasnt had much service Fletcher does not look like a striker who can solve any problems at Celtic.Charlie Mulgrew is ok at Centre back in Scottish league games but in Europe or International matches he is poor and hits the ball anyway he is facing he cannot find a team mate. I dont rate any of the two teams and I cant see us qualifying for the finals.H.H.
McCall and McGhee on – brucie bonus and ratface off
Up in Silverburn earlier and bought one of the Boca10 t-shirts. The guy was telling me how they sell so many more of the Celtic ones in comparison to the monkeys.
He was recently ordering replacement stock and noticed that most of the blue ones were XL or XXL :-)
