Congratulations to Celtic, who last night became the first Scottish team to win a European tie since, Celtic, last season. While I am sure we would all have preferred to face Dundalk in the next Champions League qualifying round, a trip to Norway to face Rosenborg will be welcome by the club.
Rosenborg are not the same force we faced 16 years ago, and even that team was a shadow of the team who tested Real Madrid a few seasons earlier. The Norwegians succumbed to the inevitable forces of economic plunder, as clubs from richer leagues picked off their talent at increasingly earlier ages.
We should have more than enough in the tank for this one.

Far too many armchair warriors on here for this bear!
Throwing about accusations of “touts”, people being “spineless” and “gutless”!
As laughable as it gets!
At the end of the day, this is football that we are talking about, despite what some think it is not really that important in the grand scheme of things.

From a great height
Like i said. Plenty on here condone the cheating by the SFA/HUNS, but are offended by a banner.
How come they are not outraged by the blatant cheating, yet a banner drives them doolally?
Last night we hosted a social underclass.
Heel draggers (and knuckle draggers) who spew filth and drape themselves in an anachronistic flag without realising that Sean and Sinead went to University and got good jobs while Sammy and Arlene continued to build bonfires and go on marches.
A bunch of rebels without a completion date dragged us down to Linfield’s level.
Want to indulge in this stuff at Celtic games?
Fine by me – just have the courage of your convictions, give your names and addresses to the media and deal with the fall out (reputational and financial) instead of leaving it to our club to clean up your mess.
Alternatively, just rise above up?
Hail hail
I would imagine we’ve been charged for the paramilitary banner next to the Brendan at work banner. I doubt the Brendan banner would be deemed illicit on it’s own. The GB put both up together and brought Brendan into it.
The Paddy McCourt Celtic View cover is just a danger sign (standard British road sign?) with Paddy McCourt in the middle, you would have to ask the editor if he or she meant more to it. Regardless, it doesn’t act as an excuse for last nights display and neither does any other issue such as the ongoing fallout from the Supreme Court decision etc.

You don’t sound as if you’re in ‘gagging’ mode, but I was referring to how you Bletchley-Parked a couple of words, but left one intact!
THE GREEN MAN SAYS SACK THE BOARD on 20TH JULY 2017 6:58 PM
I see the Pensioners Brigade are still up in arms. Rather faulty memories some of them have when it comes to singing songs. But they have nothing whatsoever to say about the SFA/HUNs cheating Celtic. Silent about that, but they dont like banners, oh no. But cheating is fine, they will go along with that.
Talk about two-faced.
Anything else you want to call Celtic supporters?

THE GREEN MAN SAYS SACK THE BOARD on 20TH JULY 2017 7:00 PM
You complain about a banner, yet condone and take part in a rigged league.
I will have no lecturing from people who cant call out cheating, but are bothered by banners.
My sentiments exactly GM. In fact its that good a couple of posts i nearly thought of posting again on here ;-)
Hamiltontim congrats to you and the Mrs i hope life gives you all you both desire. HH
TGM-he’s no legend,he’s a flipping pain in the arse:-)))
Call out the SFA/HUN cheating.
Never mind a banner.

Wonder if it was the cheating/lying hun Ogilvie or the bigoted hun Dallas that clyped us?
Probably the mssm DOB’S originally and the two above huns reinforced.
Nope it was there for all to see, self inflicted.

I wonder how many of the Green Brigade who were able voted for the Independence of this ” wee bigoted country” Celtic are part of? Imo, a lot of good young lhads are being manipulated on occasion by far left folk, who don’t care if they undermine Celtic Football Club in achieving some spurious political gain.
I hope this link works, some fascinating old photos……….HH

Like many who consider themselves on the political left, I would imagine that loads of GB would have voted for independence. It was not for nothing that the nationalists went heavy hammer on decrying those against independence as being “unionists” , seeking to Ulsterise the independence debate. Though I also believe that a number of them have had their eyes opened to the true authoritarian nature of the SNP by their persecution under the OBFA.

‘bear’ ?
Hmm.
Regardless of your slip – what sort of view of the football do you get from your happy seat at the back of the bus?
Never mind a stupid banner, what about institutionalised cheating and corruption?

Would rather have a banner flown behind me of Frank Spencer in sunglasses than a buckie bottle thrown at my heid fae behind.
Oh FFS,here they come.The anti SNP brigade.Deperate to get it in.Really,linking the SNP with the GB.How fekin stupid does that sound?.At a guess,I would say that at least half of the GB would be Labour voters.Ah,thats probably it.That Corbyn is an IRA sympathiser.
What a load of absolute guff.Away an pap peas at the moon.

Top post .
Celtic fc means different things to different supporters . As for Celtic PLC ? Money or principles will soon be the elephant in the room .
A room filled with suits that dictate the rules ( or lack of rules ) for Scottish football .
I hope they are smarter than The Green Brigade were last night .
Whether you disagree that much about UEFA rules and regulations , nobody complained when they handed us millions for qualifying or did I miss something . It’s their party . It’s their rules . Abide or ……..
Collateral damage from the GB display may well come from the way the MSSM will treat any banner they create to promote the Strip The Titles view.
I know the MSSM would find a way to ridicule the notion anyway but we should not be making it easier for them.
I hope the above are my only words on this subject. We really should be talking positively of Celtic in these amazing times. If you want to criticise the Board then contact them and ask for answers. Letting off steam on here plays into the hands of those who would applaud our demise.
Just got my ticket for the Rosenborg game and I am looking forward to it already as I had to miss last night`s game.

Weeman67. 7.32.
Fascinating indeed.
The one with the Mongolian woman is horrific.
Hail Hail.
I firmly believe the Green Brigade may as well go all-in for the Rosenborg game and give us a banner of King Billy – with a surprised look on his face and a finger perched on his wee goatee cleft – getting royally horsed (see what I did there, monarchy & equestrian fans?) by his big white rampant steed.
Add the tagline: ‘Eventually the Tables Get Turned #stripthetitles’ for sinister effect and let the fun commence.
Love to see that one covered nationally and internationally by the SMSM Huns.
Sandman
You need to wise up my man, if you want to call me Hun go right ahead mate!
Playing the man rather than the argument however is a truly Hunnish action in my opinion.
Of course you knew that the reference to “bear” was an attempt at humour because you learned that at whatever place of learning you graced with your presence.
Perhaps you can share with all us less committed and no doubt therefore, less worthy individuals,
all your campaign medals and scars you earned fighting your way to the front of that bus you were on!
HH
Mon the Dandies….
Sheep game on premier sports if anyone’s interested
Shocking news about Chester Bennington if true,41years old with six kids
All the banner experts, who are strangely silent about blatant SFA/HUN cheating.
Funny that eh
Disgusting and shameful statement from Celtic PLC, can they sink any lower?
Watching the Aberdeen game, both teams are rotten. No banners in sight :O
All the banner experts. Did we see you on CQN complaining about the racist abuse Scott Sinclair is subject to?
Did we hear you complain about Celtic supporters violently attacked in the Gallowgate by Ajax Huns?
And have we heard any complaints about how the league is rigged by the SFA/Huns?
Or is it just banners and Celtic supporters that you are concerned with?
HH

Still early in the game for banners :-))
Hail Hail
Angel Gabriel,
Thanks, Running late,

Did anyone stop to think that the GB want to encourage debate by their passive demonstrations? That and embarrassing the suits of the Plc with their chums in UEFA.
I see the usual right wing suspects and Unionists are now seeking to assuage the damage to their consciences by demonising the GB.
In my experience many of these individuals are primarily motivated by the contents of their sporrans rather than any ideological integrity. :)

Let the people sing!
Registered conservative Catholic and a grey to baldy curmudgeon.
IMHO the banner argument is a sign that the jobs worth in Nyon who were placed by the Hampden huns are out to impose their bland version of supporting on us by repressing our historical roots.
They ignore Chelsea (yes right) fans rioting in Manchester, bottles being thrown in Belfast and a decade of cheating from down river.
Why? The answer is obvious.
The grey green brigade bring colour and yes controversy to Celtic Park but it would be a dull place without them.
TGM
You would have loved the giggle last night.
On the 90th minute whilst the Belfast neanderthals were 5 nil down on aggregate, the loudest chant of the night came from the Belfast/Brigton mob. WATP!
Never seen more laughter fae a Celtic crowd.
So funny
MWD @ 6,20,,,Dear sir, I am an OAP and I have never, ever taken Viagra…they always give me a sore head.
I strongly resent the implication…
yours truly…
sorry about the swear word

They should have been banned from Celtic Park for throwing bottles and coins at a Celtic player.
But the PLC and the pensioners would rather see Celtic supporters banned.
Justice eh.
