fuck
so why did the stewards tell several fans last night that they were banned?

fuck? some stewards there is a lot of great ones and id say they are in the majority
im going to retract my statement that i made last night and i hope doc does the same although he was at the game last night.to be honest ive not read the statement in full just what MRS TIM has posted
id say lets put this under the pillow till we see whhat happens over the next few days
yes that means tigers out and will use the contacts that ive got to find out exasctly the boards thinking on this but my auld heid thinking is this can be sorted

:wtf?: ???


there was no 'fuck' in my original post tiger.....dunno what you do when you mess about with the quotes :shrug:

there's something fishy about this whole affair.....I don't think it can be mere coincidence that the section that walked out at the weekend was the same part of the stadium that was - by all accounts - 'targeted' by the stewards last night

not intentional mrs tim just posting whats on my mind and what i see every visit to paradise :thumbs.up:
better the truth than hearsay and rumours

They're backtracking. But at least they are backtracking. They didn't expect the response they did and this is the only way they can save face. I'm glad it happened because if any one of the protesters is banned it's all over for me.

yep, about the only sensible explanation....why make a statement otherwise?.....specifically with that last sentence:

"These ejections were completely unrelated to last Saturday's match.”

they've obviously been monitoring the reactions on the celtic message boards

I hardly think any of the reactions on here or the other boards have been knee-jerk.

And no disrespect to you Tiger, but most of us overseas Tims have got family back home, and as such aren't as much out of the loop as you'd expect.

Yeah, loads of text messages and emails flying about on this one.

I think a lot of it is rolled into a general dissatisfaction of the way things are going off the park and people just aren't happy about it. At the end of the day, no one likes being treated like a mushroom (well most people don't) and the board have miscalculated if they think they can change the nature of the support overnight.

It will never be allowed to happen. What will happen though, is a greater and greater disenfranchisement of the support. More protests. More ejections. A big fuck off rip down the middle of the support, with the traditionalists on one side and your KDS posting wanker-types on the other.

Christ they are throwing folk out for things from peaceful protest to the use of the word hun. :angry:

John Ried has basically taken his fascist template that he wanted for the UK as a whole and implemented it at the club he supposedly loves.

I hate to sound like a grumpy bastard, but I have found myself reminiscing for the dark old days of the 90's! :yikes:

The team may have been pish, we were humiliated on a regular basis, but you know what?

At least the club was still ours!

Give me the old jungle, with it's constant threat of casual violence, Rebel tunes being sung with gusto and pish up to your knees, and day of the week.

You can stick Corporate Celtic PLC up her arse, you sell out, black-shirted, jack-booted, right wing, Nazi, fascist cunt.

And to think this guy was a Stalinist when he was at Uni. I am ashamed to have shared a University with this waste of oxygen.

as far as im concerned every member of this forum no matter where you are is a family member in my heart (no thats no a tam post)all im saying is that i wasnt at the match last night doc was but i dont meet doc apart from on this forum
what im saying is ill have to speak with many dundee guys over the weekend regarding the events at celtic park
on wednesday so that i can relay them to the site
you may get e-mails / texts from your kin here in scotland (good) but i dont know them and neither do you know mine(maybes ?you never know i might be standing next to your cousin after every match and not know him/her
as i said ealier lets put this under the pillow and not create a mountain out of a mole hill but if it is a mountain then there will be a lot of hikers looking for answers

Sorry mate, but I don't see how anybody is making anything more out of this than there clearly is.

The people who run the club are a disgrace.

Desmond and the Scottish Hitler should get themselves to feck out of my club.

They are not wanted, nor do they have the faintest idea what Celtic as a club means to it's support, or what being a Celtic supporter is all about in the first place.

My take on "Poppygate."

Celtic decided to make an example of the GB saw the reactions on the MB's and decided to side wie some of the board apologist explanations that were flying about CelticCyberTimdom.

The only things that remain "Celtic" are the fans and the hoops we play in.

Sadly, the rest of the club is following the Prawn Sandwich Brigade and is falling into line with every instruction /rule from Uefa and the SPL Committee.

I have no doubt that if Uefa asked us to wear a red hand or a union jack on the shirt label we would comply.

We have always been a club proud to be different, but welcoming to all sections of society, regardless of colour creed or religion, but now, we close our doors to discussion and accept all forthcoming , afraid to stand up for the last 120 years of history and tradition?

We may be winning the league, but the Celtic I know is deeply embedded in the vaults of a different Celtic Park.

I don`t want to be a Man Utd. I pride myself every day in the belief that I support a cause, a tolerant club appealing to the masses. Mr Desmond and John Reid are far far from my ideal custodians of the club I love.

Wether it`s the poppy debate, or the Irish songs, the club has persecuted ordinary people who have their own beliefs simply because it is not the view of two or three Board members. Democracy is a two vote rule at Celtic Park nowadays.

Never mind the players in January. We need to be taken on by people who want to see Celtic succeed on the park, but more importantly in my eyes, stand up for the fans, for the honour of the days gone and to garauntee the identity of the future.
I`m not biased. I don`t care who beats Rangers

It is up to us, to everyone at Celtic Park, to build up our own legends. We don’t want to live with history, to be compared with legends from the past. We must make new legends."
