Celtic fans warned to behave themselves in Madrid:

And in the middle of the article, a reminder of the trouble we faced out there.

 

CELTIC could be dealt two more major blows with reports suggesting Kris Commons and Virgil van Dijk are heading for the Parkhead exit door.

 

Celtic's top scorer last season Commons was said to been very unhappy at his starting slot on the bench for Celtic's 1-0 Champions League defeat to Maribor on Tuesday night.

 

The 31-year-old has asked boss Ronny Deila for an explanation, despite appearing as a substitute at half-time.

 

West Brom were heavily linked with the attacking midfielder.

 

Star defender Van Dijk, who is wanted by Newcastle, Sunderland, Southampton, Swansea and Sevilla, could also leave before Monday's transfer deadline.

 

The Dutchman said: "I'm a Celtic player for now, but we will have to see what happens.

 

"It is difficult to say if this defeat will have an influence on my future. I want to play at the highest level.

 

"We were playing for a place in the Champions League group stages and haven't gone through. Now we have gone into the Europa League. It is European football, but on a somewhat lower level. Let's see what happens."

Anything else we can do for you sir?

How about next year we let you go on a grand tour of the world and just put down that you beat everyone 3-0?

 

Fuck sake every club had more than 3 months to get themselves sorted!

For the love of fuck.

As you allude to Tom, would they give a flying fuck about anyone else 

Surely FIFA will tell them where to go?

Or not!

Was thinking that very same thing...

Shouldn't the SPLFAWeegieDuys not just give rasellikbyraway the title now?

Beaten by Hamilton, we are 4 points off the top, c'mon Dons we CAN WIN THE LEAGUE!

Queen’s Celtic skipper Scott Brown has got the right funk on after a 1-0 home defeat to Hamilton sent the Accies top of the Scottish Premiership. “I don’t do getting beat,” he fumed, having just been beaten. “People were just hiding and it was disappointing to see and play in.”

 

Above taken from today's Fiver, never a good sign when your captain comes out in public and accuses his team mates of hiding.

I thought the exact same when we played them earlier this season. As soon as we realised they're really not that good, and started driving at them, they shit it and held on to their lead by the skin of their teeth.

Which makes the result all the more frustrating.  How we lost to them is beyond me.  I thought that Brown was the only thing that saved them.

Your spot on about Brown. As soon as he went off we over ran them in the middle of the park.

Hope as many of their glory hunters have booked flights and ferries and horse led caravans

Celtic manager Ronny Deila says Scottish referees are the best he has seen in Europe this season  (daily record)

 

 

Going for the opposite approach to ginger cunt Lennon then I see.

Also, I see Ann Budge has come out and lambasted the plastic paddies on their behaviour and vandalism during their recent cup game against them.  Nice to see someone stand up to them.  Obviously Stokes tried to deflect and said he was subjected to sectarian abuse 

About time someone spoke out against the great unwashed cretins. Oh that AFC did the same.

Well said Ann!

 

Doubtless she'll now get penalised by the "authorities"

In reply, 'its nae us its you'

 

 

AS recent years have shown, the fixture between Heart of Midlothian and Celtic at Tynecastle Stadium has become a difficult one. This follows various incidents, including an attack on the Celtic manager and continued sectarian abuse directed at Celtic management, staff and players.

 

Celtic representatives met with Ann Budge and her Executive team yesterday and were made aware of particular issues which arose at the match on Sunday.

 

In addition to these issues, missiles were thrown into the Celtic support, a Celtic supporter sustained injuries at the match after being hit with coins, and sectarian abuse was again directed at Celtic staff and players. We are also aware of a home supporter again attempting to enter the field of play at Tynecastle, this time to approach one of our players.   

 

We are addressing these matters with Heart of Midlothian and welcome the desire of Ann Budge to seek a positive and enjoyable matchday experience for all football supporters at Tynecastle. We look forward to working with her to achieve this.

 

Celtic supporters have a long and proud record of positive support for the Club. Our fans have developed an excellent reputation and this is something we cherish and wish to preserve. 

 

It is very important to note that the vast majority of Celtic supporters and Scottish football supporters behave impeccably at matches. With regards to the reported incidents at the match on Sunday, we would like to re-iterate that any form of offensive or inappropriate behaviour is contrary to our core values and the Club will deal with those responsible in the appropriate manner.

 

We share the concerns expressed by Ann Budge and her aim to eradicate all forms of offensive behaviour from Scottish football. We can assure Heart of Midlothian that we will be pleased to continue to co-operate with them fully to ensure that all issues from this match concerning both sets of supporters are addressed.

Victim FC 

Classic deflection from Victim Fc.

About time someone spoke out against the great unwashed cretins. Oh that AFC did the same.

 

I presume you're including yourself in that 

It really is getting embarrassing the way they are reporting their attendances

 

Figure they gave to the press for today's game was 44,827.

24,000 would be pushing it going by the highlights

 

 

 

 

 

 

Uefa has opened a disciplinary case against Celtic after apparent crowd disorder at their Europa League match in Croatia on Thursday.

 

The club's fans set off fireworks during a 4-3 loss at Dinamo Zagreb.

 

Uefa says its disciplinary panel will judge the case on 19 February, the same day Celtic host Inter Milan in their Europa League last-32 first-leg tie.

 

This is the fifth time in three years Celtic have been charged by Uefa over supporter behaviour.

 

The Scottish champions were fined £12,600 in 2011 after supporters made pro-IRA chants during a Europa League home match against Rennes.

 

They were then handed a further £21,000 punishment after their followers unfurled a banner criticising Uefa and set off flares during a later match in the same competition away to Italian side Udinese.

 

The club incurred a £4,200 penalty when a firework was let off during the Champions League qualifier against Cliftonville at Celtic Park in July 2013.

 

And a year ago they were fined £42,000 by Uefa for "illicit" banners at the home defeat by AC Milan.

 

The greatest fans in the world
