Ronny Deila is wasting his breath when trying to warn those who throw pyrotechnics that they damage Celtic’s reputation. That fact is already well established but is irrelevant to those for whom throwing pyrotechnics is part of their football experience.
There is a clash of culture here. ‘The Man’, whether that be Uefa or the Health & Safety Executive, forbids pyrotechnics at football, but the consequences are visited on Celtic, not those who bring the pyrotechnics. No one has been brave enough to put their name to the pyrotechnic culture and I suspect no one ever will.
The last 24 hours has been a huge success for this unclaimed culture; it managed to grab some of the little space alongside the David Bowie news on Radio 5Live this morning, and many other places, adding fuel to the fire, if you pardon the pun. Someone is glowing with an “I did that” sense of achievement, although, of course, he’d never say so openly. It will continue unless the consequences are moved away from Celtic.

Back to Basics – Glass Half Full on 11th January 2016 10:02 am
Blantyretim. Re: waghorn – I too noticed the blatant puff piece on BBC news.
The strong likelihood is this has come from BBC sport Scotland who will have been asked to provide a segment for the national sports update.
A truly disgraceful (and unprecedented) piece of transfer fee puffery.
*aye and he’ll go the same way that warbo and sevco’s last transfer went. Still husnae kicked a ball yet.

What do you want me to say ?
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
I rarely post so I don’t mean to hassle you but when I was young Leeds used to be a big club with a horrible support and they always used to say, no one likes us and we don’t care (bit like the dead club), I have usually found that most independent people do see the Celtic support as different to the dead club, just wanted it to stay that way.

Draw prediction:
Hearts v Celtic
Sevco v Annan
*and the latter will be televised live
It’s a pity Celtic can’t ban some of the apologists for the Stranraer numpties that are posting their sh*** on here.

Sickening watching this gruesome pantomime continue..
Scottish Cup 5th round draw (ties Feb 6th)

Home draw for sevco , hmmmmm
Sevco at home how is this possible…stewards enquiry..
Awe FFS that’s boydchenko and jig going for a wee memory lane trip. The only team that didnae vote tae kick them oot.
Scottish Cup draw fixed by Jobo.
EK V.CELTIC
Knew it. Knew we’d be drawn away in Edinburgh…Maybe…
Would that make it 13 out of the last 15 being an away draw for us?
Can oor tie be switched tae Parkheid.
Grunt Russell conflates Offensive and Sectarian in Celtic Smear Shocker………….
Thanks to the wee boys of the Guy Fawkes Brigade for making it easier than usual for rockets like him to do the dirty on the Celtic.
Scully
I didn’t think you were.
Outwith scotland we have a grand reputation, pyro will not harm it in any way, pyro on the continent is taken for granted.
We don’t have a reputation to lose in scotland.
HH
Of course EK have to win through first. H.H.
The most astounding thing about the Sc draw is how often we are drawn as the away team.
Anyone got the stats.
The most predictable thing is sevco financial basket case fc getting a home draw. Again.
Jobo and TBb
” we’re gonna need a bigger boat !!!”
East Kilbride is Green and White:))
The draw in reverse order:
The fifth round ties will be played on the weekend of 6/7 February.
Hearts v Hibernian
Dumbarton v Dundee or Falkirk
Annan Athletic v Greenock Morton
Rangers v Kilmarnock
Dunfermline Athletic or Ross County v Forfar Athletic or Linlithgow Rose
Dundee United v Partick Thistle
East Kilbride Thistle or Lothian Thistle Hutchison Vale v Celtic
Motherwell v Inverness Caledonian Thistle or Stirling Albion
Robertressell
I think bsr posted before this draw..15 out if 17 !!!!
Hmmmmmm
Certainly can’t accuse the SFA of favouritism anyway – getting a player from a club that doesn’t exist anymore to do the draw…..
Both clubs have capacities of 500 and 1000 so no chance of hosting the matches at their own grounds. A switch to CP or to Tynecastle or Easter Road likely. depending on who goes through.
ROBERTTRESSELL. They look after there own this corruption will continue unless the court cases go against the Rangers other than that I cannot see anything changing. H.H.

That’s 17 of last 19 Scottish Cup ties since 2009/2010 we have been drawn away from home – though I’m not much bothered this time (sorry Jobo – even if you get past the mighty Lothian Thistle Hutchison Vale !)
LTHV’s home pitch is round the corner from me and there is no chance of Saughton Enclosure hosting a Celtic game. No seating or terracing never mind a stand. Couple of hundred standing max.
Anybody handy to go round and check TBB & jobo see if they need any help getting aff the ceiling :))))))))
LIDL getting plenty exposure :)

Johann – hmmmm indeed. Thanks
Radar Jackson on RS – first question to LG – how important is it to win the treble! So predictable.
Thanks for responses.
Staggering statistical anomalies. Still they even themselves out….. So the next 17 out of 19 sure to be home draws for the hoops….
Aye right…..
