    'The club ignores the wishes of its support at its peril,' David Potter

    Much Ias I admire David Potter's writings (supreme Celtic Historian) & he likes cricket too! Totally wrong slant on recent events. Who are the supporters WE should listen to? I've been privileged to see our team for 65 years. Gives me no special insight of course. Just that I've seen us up &...

    David Potter

    On the cricket front I tend to follow Mike Marcuse's Marxist analysis of cricket viz anybody but England. An attitude I apply to fitba! Agree totally with the sentiments you express. The joys we are experiencing currently are heightened by the pain we've known. On which (if you forgive an auld...

    David Potter

    Moved to say how much I like David's writing. He encapsulates the history of our Club and the emotions involved in following them. His recent 'Dawn of the free' missive was particularly poignant for me. As an 8 year old I was dimly aware of 19 October 57. My Uncle and I (together with a stray...

    Boo Bhoys

    Comrade, players are human just like us. Like you I was frustrated when the square ball was played when more positive options were available. Original point was how does booing help or react with players who have delivered so much for us?

    Struggling!

    Agree we're lacking the cutting edge to put teams away. However in big games we do the biz, League is won. Beat the Sheep & the finall vs diet huns or ICT nae probs. Give Lenny the job now! Hail! Hail!

    Boo Bhoys

    Poor show today but what about the boos at full-time? From my seat in the North Stand they seemed to come from the 'padded seats' *folk who perhaps see 1 or 2 games a year". Get a grip please and don't get me started on the 70 minute brigade who at 5 to 3 are singing YNWA till they walk out!

    Celtic v Aberdeen - All comments here

    Having witnessed disgraceful refereeing over 6 decades, must say Madden was one of the worst.

    New bhoy

    Hail! Hail! Compadres. 1st game Easter Road 1954 (5-0) but canny mind anything of it. Talking recently to a mate of similar vintage. We can mind most of the games in the '60s but struggle to recall results from last season! As long as we live till 10IAR!

    Celtic v FK Suduva

    Much inferior team to Alashkert whom we scudded in the CL (so-called) qualifying. Should've scored 4/5 over there. Expect it tomorrow.

    Boyata’s back

    He is but if he can do us a turn or two I'd rather take a financial rather than a fitba hit. Hope our Board agree!

    Celtic vs. Rangers

    If Moussa was sold now it'd send a terrible message and I trust the powers that be realise this. As to Sunday, like other posters I'd settle for any sort of win. However, if the unthinkable happens don't panic. We'll still win this league comfortably.

    New signings at Paradise!

    Obviously don't know of Erik's relationship with BR but agree we should've kept him. Mind when 2-0 down in Israel BR brought him on 2nd half & he steadied the ship.

    Boyata’s back

    Pleased when we rejected Fulham's bids but gutted at his (in)actions later. Stunned to see him in the team last Sunday & understand negative reactions but personally would never boo anyone wearing the Hoops. Was my MOTM on Sunday and he can still do a good job for us before we punt him in...
