    Bloody sunday biker protest

    It's worth mentioning the soldier is being charged with shooting an unarmed 15 year-old, Daniel Hegarty, twice in the head. My da was at that march and had to flee the bullets. Prison is too good for that scum. RIP, Daniel

    Albert Kidd? ‘I would like to have kicked his head in,’ Sandy Clark on BBC Scotland

    Just watched the highlights of both the Hearts and then Celtic game in '86. Was only four at the time, so don't remember it personally, but had to fight back the tears at the footage of Love Street when news of the Dundee goal filtered out to the Celts. Amazing scenes, not even going to mention...

    Nail on Head, Winter! We should be better than this! We claim to be a club like no other, but fleecing the fans like this makes us just the same, or in a lot of cases, worse than others. About time we lived up to our reputation that generations fought hard to forge

    New Top ?

    I don't like the yellow sponsor logo, not just because I was going on about associating with the bloodsuckers of the poor on other threads :D, but purely from a design point of view, just don't think it sits well on the green. As for the unbroken hoops, I remember back in the day the outrage...

    You're absolutely spot on that having a casino in the palm of your hand is a disturbing problem. But the question I think Celtic supporters should ask themselves, is not whether we as fans can save addicts from their addiction, but whether or not it is morally right to exploit them and profit...

    Raffling off match tickets in exchange for subscribing to official Celtic-themed online slots. What would Walfrid think?

    I'd go further than that, Wild Rover. Much as I love Leigh, why should he be the sole reason it's unethical? We have hundreds, maybe thousands of fans with afflictions exactly the same as his, but they've no profile or status so they mean nothing. They should stop doing it because it's immoral...

    Forrest, this was his year, no doubt. And after reading the prologue to the nominations I'd like to point out that Henry Ford was a fascist and Sean Connery is a cream bun ;). Just sayin' :p

    Personal responsibility is a very easy thing to say. It's been proven in countless scientific studies that susceptibility to addiction is written in your DNA, the reward centres in some people's brain chemistry make it extremely difficult to quit triggers once they have been invoked. I think the...

    Raffling off match tickets in exchange for subscribing to official Celtic-themed online slots. What would Walfrid think?

    I love a punt too, maybe a bit too much! It's upsetting to me that the football club we love with all our hearts would take a few shillings from vultures who want to prey on us. It makes me angry and disappointed in equal measures.

    Raffling off match tickets in exchange for subscribing to official Celtic-themed online slots. What would Walfrid think?

    You're absolutely correct. No company spends hundreds of thousands on advertising without expecting a significant return on their income. And where do they expect that income to come from? Vulnerable Celtic supporters with addiction tendancies. I know what I'm talking about because I've lost...

    Raffling off match tickets in exchange for subscribing to official Celtic-themed online slots. What would Walfrid think?

    Have you ever noticed how the 'gamble responsibly' messaging - something they have been made to do by a government who couldn't give a toss as it's a good tax haul - actually emphasise and put in the largest and most fancy font the word 'fun'? It's almost in disco lights! I know that's not...

    Raffling off match tickets in exchange for subscribing to official Celtic-themed online slots. What would Walfrid think?

    It's bad enoughwith the kiosks in the ground, gambling firms on our shirts, advertising boards, corner flags, official website, official twitter account and just about every available space we can find. But offering the chance to win match day tickets in order to sign people up for Celtic-themed...

    Celtic fan attacked; left blinded & unconscious... Police say, "Not sectarian or football related"

    I’m not making this up... https://www.irishtimes.com/news/sectarian-attacks-on-the-rise-in-scotland-1.1264517?mode=amp I’m glad the professor from Aberdeen is cool with it as long as someone doesn’t get their head kicked in, but that’s exactly what it leads to. Saying 90% is verbal and that’s a...
