No chance would I bet against us! Ad rather be skint than win a bet that involves us losing! No true Celtic man would bet against his team! It's just not done!!

I've never done it but I don't see how it makes somebody any less of a fan. Thinking Celtic will get beaten is not the same as wanting Celtic to get beaten. JimTim is quite right IMO, you need to use your head and not your heart when you're gambling.

Maybes i'm just not celtic minded?

Na got to disagree kev! Winning money on my team getting beat would give me no satisfaction whatsoever! And it doesn't matter if your not wanting them to get beat,your still betting that they will! Sorry but even if I wasn't overly confident going into a game,I would never bet the other team! No chance!

Guys every time I bet on Celtic to win we lost. so I never bet on Celtic, however it takes a gambler to bet on your own team to loose and that has nothing to do with not supporting your team ,that is simply about gambling.
its like footballers betting against your team to loose or to get that correct result/ player booked sent off, its just wrong unless your have a gambling addiction.
I will never bet against Celtic NEVER.

Dh88, that's fair enough. It wouldn't give you any satisfaction but the sole purpose of gambling is to win money so I don't see what's wrong with others betting against Celtic, especially if their coupon comes in. As I said, like you, I've never done it myself though.

I would occasionally bet on Celtic to get beat as you have to use your head when gambling but that doesn't make meany less of a fan as if they win I would not care that my bet has been beaten. I do however try not to bet on Celtic either for or against as I do back them and they lose it hurts even more.

I am fed up with posters telling me what is and what is not a true Celtic fan. What gives you the right to preach to me? I have had a season ticket since 1979. I travel 375 miles to a home game. I would suspect that the people preaching about being a celtic fan may not even attend the games. So if anyone wants to bet on or against Celtic winning any game then that is their perogative. I will personally have a bet on the draw on Wednesday evening and I will be there

I have and will never bet on Celtic to lose, the same as I have and will never bet on rangers to win. My reasoning is if a game is at say 1-1 going into the last few minutes, there would be no doubt at all as to which end I'd be hoping a winner is scored. If other folk want to bet on Celtic losing then that doesn't make them any less of a supporter in my opinion. and if we do lose then at least the bookies are paying back some of our money to fellow tims

Although maybe I should start betting against us which would at the very least guarantee a draw.
