Celtic Banter Archive January 10 2021

This is totally paranoid but looking at all the cockups Celtic have made in the last year you would think that some Sevco fan is running Celtic just now I really am bewildered with what is going on in the board room just now it's just so strange and unusual for a club in the past to have been run professionally since we Fergus took over now it seems that profesionalisum has left the building.

Youd think big lawell is a closet zombie with some of the things he is doing lately.

10 Jan 2021 23:13:37
There's guys on Twitter who genuinely believe our board are letting them win the league because they'll go bust otherwise and it's financially better for us in the long run.

11 Jan 2021 02:50:27
The Capitalist Mob on The Board don't care about the minion fans just our cash. Comical Ali has taken control of PR and Frank Gallaghers running the Football side of things. On and off the park has been one clusterf#ck after another.

11 Jan 2021 09:53:39
Kev I definitely think Celtic want a strong rangers and do from time to time let them get a bit closer, not sure they go as far as letting them win but there’s loads of times where we could’ve left them well behind and never. I don’t think anyone at Celtic expected them to go 22 points ahead.

10 Jan 2021 21:13:36
Is their anyone actually shocked we've had a positive test. There was no way we would be allowed to come home from a foreign country with a clean bill of health. Nicola wouldn't allow it. The thing with the tests is if you're told you're positive there is nothing you can do about it. Total control over the population.

10 Jan 2021 21:25:53
Stevie Nichola didn’t make us go this trip look closer to home to express your outrage. This anti-independence pro union-$hit on here is doing ma head in I’d expect it on the loyalist banter page.

10 Jan 2021 21:55:37
Stevie take a step back and breath buddy! Do u think sturgeon infected one of our players on the way back from Dubai! A mean seriously read the words Uve just written down! Bonkers 😂😂😂😂.

10 Jan 2021 21:58:43
No outrage coming from me JFP I don't give a toss about Independance and the Union, all I'm saying is as I posted last night there was no way we were (or any sports team for that matter) getting all negative tests on return after the furore in the media surrounding the trip.
Wouldnt look good if a whole squad can go on a jolly and come back unaffected by CV.

10 Jan 2021 22:05:55
Agree JFP, we brought this one on ourself. Was always likely and when we were already playing catch-up in league it was bad idea. Had we played on Saturday and got a decent result it may have added pressure to their visit to Aberdeen. Running of club from top to bottom needs a "restart ".

10 Jan 2021 22:40:00
🤣🤣🤣🤣Danny wake up son, when I say Nicola I thought it was obvious I meant the corrupt Government not one individual. This is a bit deeper than one of our players being told they have CV. The message had to be sent out that you can't go on non essential trips and expect to get away scot free hence there was no way we were getting a clean bill of health on return.

10 Jan 2021 22:51:36
My bro n law is tracking and tracing 2 plane loads from dubai on friday and expects celtic to be part of that. 600 people, with many changing age during trip so birthday jaunts. madness. this is totally on celtic. Stunning arrogance mind boggling moronic.

11 Jan 2021 08:46:36
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 yir some man stevie! It’s been an absolute disaster from all parties to be honest. but my anger is directed at the clowns who ‘run’ our club! The sheer arrogance to go on a trip like this during what the country as a whole are going through shows us exactly what they think about the fans! Could go on a rant about it but actually can’t be bothered anymore!

10 Jan 2021 18:56:52
Lawell should go tonight, he is turning our club into a complete joke, maybe he doesn't care about 10 iar, but us fans do. Then he sanctioned this trip, allows the players to swan about out there drinking pints, when no other person in scotland can have a pint with any one else at a pub. Now this, for me has finally broke my trust in this organisation, who couldn't run a p@@@ up in a free bar. Raging is not the word. Id much rather we played and won games to get back points. LAWELL MUST GO.

10 Jan 2021 19:38:24
These are our banter years rolled up and squeezed into a few months.
I fear this story is going to grow arms and legs. allready we have public health scientists saying there must be more people to have been in contact with the player who in turn would need to self isolate.
The really is turning out to be the season from hell.
The sooner its over the better.

10 Jan 2021 19:49:58
Celtic as a club are an embarrassment from top to bottom we are a shambles.

I am 65 years old and I have followed and supported Celtic all my life.

NOBODY on here can say we have done nothing wrong. Forget all this bull comments ' We have always went to Dubai'

People were not dying during these times. These people have to waken up and smell the coffee.

REAL Celtic Legends like Jock Stein, Ronnie Simpson, Tommy Gemmell, Bobby Murdoch, Billy McNeill, Jimmy Johnstone,
Joe McBride, Stevie Chalmers, John Fallon, Sean Fallon and Neil Mochan will be turning in their graves the way our great club is getting run.

We need a clear out out from top to bottom as this mess cannot continue.

Who are we thinking has the positive test with no name being mentioned could lead us to think an important player with not being mentioned to not give away team news before morra night to give hibs a boost maybe?

{Ed007's Note - We're not speculating on who tested positive, Richy, this is someone's life at risk and they might have asked for it to be kept private.}

10 Jan 2021 20:59:22
Claymore I agree the club top to bottom are a shambles. But if your 65 and followed and supported Celtic all your life you’ve seen worse times as I have. It’s not over until the plump female sings. If it isn’t to be it isn’t to be. 🇮🇪☘️👍.

10 Jan 2021 23:10:01
JFP1888

I AM 65. I know we have seen bad times in our life’s. But in my eyes this is the biggest season in the clubs history and we have made it a total embarrassment.

But honestly, I hate to say it, but the ‘ Plump Lady has already sang” 🍀🍀🍀🍀.

11 Jan 2021 01:21:58
Agree jfp but to go from such a high so quickly? Hh.

10 Jan 2021 18:18:33
So Celtic FC won't tell us the player can they do this.
Are they actually winding us up. Are they waiting for us all to point fingers then say it's ok it's a player who did not travel that will heap more negatives on us.
Why all the fookin mind games and codes and secrecy etc. A Celtic player is a Celtic player no reason not to say who it is as either,
we are a newspaper wet dream. Nearly done with all this lads they are winding me up. It's like Celtic give every newspaper there wish including click bait sites and ex players ambition to destroy us.

10 Jan 2021 17:17:44
22 points adrift win our 4 games in hand it's 10 points beat them twice it's 4 points. Celtic have still only played half a season so nothing lost and nothing won. They're grinding out results but it's as you were with all still to play for.

10 Jan 2021 17:57:21
If we get our non existent defence sorted and Maybe a winger, who knows. We put pressure on them by winning and I think they will drop o8nts. If we don't sort the defence we have no chance. Play8ng Hibs 11 days after the window opened with out a new CB sums up our board. They should have had someone in, it's not as if we haven't known Duffy is a complete disaster for months.

10 Jan 2021 18:06:07
Sometimes you need to take a step back and have a look around to actually see what's going on.
The only thing I can see is rangers stretching there lead. its done. we have blown it from top to bottom.
There is absolutely no evidence to suggest anything different.
The only good thing is the monkey is of our back and as a club we can now start the process of moving forward. Ofcourse I would have loved 10iar but its the milestone that's been holding us back.
Out of Europe before a ball is kicked most years but fed the 10iar line and that keeps us happen.
Well that's gone. so let's all move on and look forward to better times.

10 Jan 2021 18:07:49
Grinding out results with a wee bit help. 2 mins injury time? If it was 2-2 there woulda been 5 mins at least.

10 Jan 2021 18:32:04
Dear god there is some people on here that just can’t see what is front of them honestly! There is trying to be positive and just plain delusion! 22 points ahead with 15 Ganes to go and some think we’ll still win in it! 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️.

10 Jan 2021 18:34:26
JJ I’m not saying you’re wrong that there is little evidence we can turn things around I’m just stating the facts that nothing is lost and nothing is won and it’s not beyond the realms of possibility. I’d have been more confident in previous seasons though. I’m actually more worried that there is more wrong at the club given the shambles it appears to be on and off the field. In recent times we’ve looked amateurish which contrasts dramatically with the professionalism we’ve demonstrated in years gone by. You feel it’s incompetence meets arrogance and contempt for the fans at every level. I don’t agree with everyone the Green Brigade say or do but they were spot on with their banner that there is a disconnect. Some of the press releases are embarrassing and I’m still trying to get over John Kennedy’s interview.

10 Jan 2021 18:37:46
For a kick off can you really see us beating them twice never mind anyone else.

10 Jan 2021 18:49:46
theres more chance of them going unbeaten this season and it wouldn't surprise me if they do.

10 Jan 2021 20:04:25
Every team in the SPL has failed to beat them and we are over the half-way point. Meanwhile we have failed to score a goal against them in two games - never mind take points off them and we have the worst defense I Have seen in a Celtic side for decades and no goalkeeper.
There is a time to be defiant, faithful and determined, but there is also a time to see the writing on the wall and the humungous mess the whole club have made - and continue to make - of this of all seasons.
There have been huge mistakes and errors of judgement from the people who are trusted to run our club and have ALL failed miserably.

10 Jan 2021 20:08:47
Me neither Liam.

10 Jan 2021 20:28:34
Don't panic lads, according to some on here the Sevplosion is just around the corner. It happens every year. We're still going to win the league by 10 points.
Aye right, dream on guys. HH.

10 Jan 2021 16:04:13
Whos the player that's tested positve?

10 Jan 2021 16:06:54
That was everyone’s fears, the nightmare continues.

10 Jan 2021 16:22:08
Can’t have been from Dubai because Phil says it doesn’t exist over there! 🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️ Whoever sanctioned this trip should be sacked immediately! And take Lennon with him! The gross negligence of this management team and board has cost us on the park and off the park since day 1 this season!

10 Jan 2021 16:36:03
That whole trip during these times has to go down as one of the biggest PR disasters of all time for the club. Permission or not from the SFA and Government, common sense should’ve prevailed and the club should’ve took the correct decision and cancelled. The whole season up until now has been a bloody disaster. Now if memory serves me correct, ad I know someone who doesn’t believe Celtic are in the wrong on here will no doubt explain it to me but when Stuart Armstrong tested positive on international duty christie had to self isolate for a fortnight. Now looking at the pictures, seeing the video and listening to Kennedy yesterday, clearly all aspects of social distancing etc weren’t adhere’d to so surely this 1 case so far will have an impact on other players in the squad? Looking forward to lennon explaining this one away.

10 Jan 2021 16:42:34
Shambles of a season and so it continues.

Does this not mean that tomorrow's game is now in jeopardy as anyone who has been in contact with the player who's tested positive must self isolate for 10 days?

10 Jan 2021 16:45:16
So if the player was on the trip to Dubai, does that mean everyone on the trip will have to self isolate, might be a chance to give some of the younger players a chance, so some good might come out of this mad trip, to travel to somewhere where the C.V. is just as rampant as here,

10 Jan 2021 17:04:30
Sturgeon will be on the warpath after this. football could be shut down.

10 Jan 2021 17:29:52
So do you think Gerrard and his players were playing the moral high ground card with wearing masks for interviews. The cynic in me says yes.

10 Jan 2021 17:49:42
Murdochc2r, maybe mate, or maybe like lennon himself mentioned recently and that lot have just handled the C.V. situation better. I don’t care what anyone says, taking the team on an unnecessary jolly to Dubai right now was never going to go down well, and it certainly wasn’t going to be missed if a player or players now have C.V. the clubs put themselves in this position.

10 Jan 2021 17:50:21
To be honest l can't see the game being called off tomorrow. If a lot of the squad have to isolate then it's our own fault for going to Dubai. We will either have to field a side like villa did the other night or give the 3 pts. No way the powers to be will allow it to be cancelled. It's all our own fault. A totally shocking decision from the start. Who know the government might call time on leagueOr even worse and award the title.

10 Jan 2021 18:07:50
If the infected player was on the plane, then what does that mean for the players sitting near him, it was a chartered plane, was it small or big, were the players all seated well apart, this is might be a shambles if strict social distancing wasn't observed on the plane, I hope they had someone in strict control.

10 Jan 2021 18:43:57
What team could we put out tomorow if all players who went have to isolate I think they took 20 odd players there hh.

10 Jan 2021 20:10:57
Well Jic1956 it's very simple. If all the squad have to isolate then its play a side like the Colts or give a walk over. All our own fault.

10 Jan 2021 14:31:48
Jack Hendry seemingly playing well in Belgium with Aston Villa and Wolves tracking him.

Do you think he's finished with Celtic or can he come back ready to challenge for a first team place like Christie and Mcgregor have done in the past after successful loan spells?

10 Jan 2021 15:41:13
Did we not sell Hendry?

10 Jan 2021 16:14:33
He’s out on loan. I’d take him back now that he’s matured so well. Far better than our current options.

10 Jan 2021 16:17:38
Hes out on loan Raymundo. I'm not sure if the Belgian team have an option to buy. See a few articles over the last couple of months stating he's been one of the best defenders in the league and now a couple of English teams tracking him.

10 Jan 2021 11:14:06
Celtic will play at home to Arbroath or Falkirk in the Scottish cup on the weekend of January 30th.
Arbroath V Falkirk will be played on Tuesday.

10 Jan 2021 11:39:00
I’m happy we have a home game.
But Celtic have not lost an Away Scottish Cup tie since 2009.
We lost in the quarter finals away to St. Mirren who scored the only goal of the game from the penalty spot.
Celtic had only beaten St. Mirren 7-0 the weekend before in a league game at Celtic Park.

10 Jan 2021 10:34:41
i don't listen or agree with what davie proven has to say very often but his piece about nicola sturgeon turning a blind eye on the scotland squad having a bevy doing the conga while not being slow in putting the boot in to us is spot on.

10 Jan 2021 11:07:46
Liam Nicola Sturgeon was shown photographs of Celtic players having a beer around a pool in the Emirates and hit with a leading question abc said it “raised a question whether all the rules on what elite players have to do within their bubbles around social distancing are being complied with’. Fair comment for me. She wasn’t shown photographs of Scotland’s celebrations.

When you get caught doing something that isn’t too clever after you’re 5 years old you accept the criticism and admit the error of judgement you don’t point out that somebody else did it and got away with it. Davie Provan has missed the point. The questions for the club is was the trip to Dubai a good idea or a PR disaster and was John Kennedy’s interview and ‘minor slip ups’ comments an embarrassment? We can look closer to home for the answers than the Scottish Government.

10 Jan 2021 11:48:19
Jfp yes she was regarding the Scotland squad at the time, your getting the wrong end of the stick what we did was wrong but there you can't decide what's wrong and what's not wrong when it suits that's my point.

10 Jan 2021 12:02:52
jfp. the whole national team were having a piss up mate and we have a couple of people on sun loungers with a beer and she calls it out.

10 Jan 2021 12:10:12
Liam we need to look at our own actions that’s my point my friend. We’ve left ourselves wide open to criticism and Kennedy’s interview was the equivalent of our central defensive displays this season. We had some ‘minor slip ups’. Goodness me. His brains are obviously not in his nose.

10 Jan 2021 12:12:51
Jfp I couldn't agree more but that wasn't my point mate.
