Reading the comments in response to the sainted Maria, who I have blocked, and I will go into the reasons for that shortly, have made me laugh like fuck, as I imagine her losing the plot and undoubtedly calling me a hun.
I will cast your minds back to a thread that Anton was talking about his experiences in NI regarding the Provos. She started out replying to him with, we are all part of the Celtic family blah blah but as Anthony went on with his legitimate views, wether you agreed with him or not, that she then did her party trick of calling him a hun.
Don’t agree with her you’re a hun, seems to be her default position. She then started that shite with me, calling me a rat. Classy individual.
Now I know I am a greeting faced cunt, I know I can be brutal and savage where I feel the board or Indeed Rogers, have made a cunt if it. But, I do that because I actually believe it and it cuts deep.
I have seen us many times have our boot on the neck of Sevco, only to see us let them off the hook. This summer, in my view, was a golden opportunity to qualify for the CL and end them as a threat, not for a year or two, but perhaps as much as a decade at least.
We shat it. We dithered and suffered as a consequence of that, letting them back in, not because they closed a gap, but rather, we went back to meet them. Now I find that unacceptable stewardship of the club. Some may not see it thstvway and I accept that.
We have known for years that our Achilles heel was a defence not worthy of that name. Time and again we would be playing ok, especially in Europe, only for the defence to commit suicide on all our behalf. It wasn’t as if this was a one off situation, it was a regular occurrence, so when nothing is done to fix it, or worse, we go cheap to try, Hendry Comperr, that drives me mental.
To me this window is the most important in years, simply because they are going all in to win the league, they have increased their borrowing with rich supporters coming out of the woodwork to finance that aim.
The collapse at Greyskull was the worst performance I have ever seen against them. It wasn’t the fact that we didn’t play well, it was gutless, and even in the 90’s when we had fuck all money and a team that didn’t have enough good players, they at least fought.
But, that’s in the past and I console myself that it has focused the mind of the board and Rogers that we needed to step up. So far, we have brought in three players, one of which is our player and the other two look to have bags of ability but are a risk. And sadly regardless if they are brilliant are off in the summer.
Hopefully moves are afoot to bring in defenders who are our players and will be here, not only to win the league, but help us give CL qualification a real go. We lost out last year to a crap AEK team, where our lack of defenders of quality sold the jerseys.
It is the repitition of the same old mistakes that gets me furious. Self inflicted wounds.
You may not agree with anything I say, or any of my views on the team, the board, our signing policy. You may hate the way I say it, that’s absolutely fine. We all have our views and express them as we see fit.
I don’t give a fuck what people think. What people think does not inform how I do. I accept fully some will be absolutely opposed to my views. As I am with some of theirs, but don’t call me a hun. I am a Celtic man and love my club to the point of distraction. as you may have noticed.
I want us to use our resources to ensure we keep them down. It is the main way in this country that we can say, fuck you. To beat the establishment team, that up until recently, would not employ anyone who went to my school, to me is all consuming.
We have always been discriminated against and it is on the field of play that we take them on, even when they cheat like fuck. That’s important to me, and when I see those who lead us fail to do that time and time again, I lose the fucking plot.
If I and every guy on here who played fitba and had a dream to play for Celtic could accept we weren’t good enough to wear the hoops, I’m fucking sure I can say that about anybody, and that goes for board members who hesitate. To me it’s not about sentimentality, you are either good enough to play for Celtic or you are not.
Im hoping as I said we sort out our defensive issues. I don’t think the board have any excuse not to. Do the right thing, throw a punch when we are attacked. Take a stand and I will be happy at least we did all we could.
And Finally Maria, if I am a Hun could you explain how I managed to be in a photo of the support in the stadium in Seville arm upraised in my Celtic top. Or how I was in Stuttgart as we knocked them out. Or how I was in Lyon when Henrik had his leg broken. Or in Lisbon where Caldwell sold the jerseys against Benfica, or Munich, or Porto, or Templice outside Prague, or Bordeaux. Or had the pleasure of meeting Tommy Burns at his book launch who took the baby Celtic top of my son and got the whole team to sign it? I must be the most commited double agent ever. Stop calling people huns because they don’t agree with you, or who you even hate. It says more about you than it ever will me. Just do as I did to you. Block me.
