While I can understand people’s point of view regarding Keane working in Isreal what I would say is where is the consistency?
The American government facilitate what is happening in Gaza why no outrage when we appointed Nancy or ccv or trusty?
If you are going to make a moral stance the I’m afraid you can’t pick and choose what you’re outraged by.
{Ed007's Note - Did that make sense in your head? You're saying we should hold players responsible for their countries actions and comparing it to someone who chose to go and work in an apartheid state for people responsible for an ongoing mass genocide?
Why would we do that, why would any sane person think like that?
We question how guys like Neil McCann or Judas could sign for Rangers or how they feel about Dalglish, McGrain or CalMac but it's fine for a guy to work for a club that openly supports killing kids, only in Scotland eh?

Keane ain't short of a Bob or 2 to take their coin was shameful, rather he's thick or he's been badly advised either way he was wrong and we are not the club for him, again hive it to Martin and back the man.

Well the point i'm making is Nancy chose to work in America that supports what’s happening in Gaza why didn’t we boycott him? I btw I think Keane shouldn’t be employed by Celtic.
{Ed007's Note - MON and every Celtic employee chose to work for Celtic and the UK are supplying Israel as well, what should we do there?
Can you imagine the backlash - and rightly so - if CCV or Trusty started coming out with pro-Trump stuff?}

Keane went to Israel worked and stayed there and took their coin there's a difference.
{Ed007's Note - ?????

Genocide? I keep hearing this term. For me one side is as bad as the other. No one nor the mainstream media has answered the question which is. If one of the warring sides (Hamas - btw, my heart goes out to ordinary Palestinians, many of whom in spring 2025 were butchered or attacked by protesting against Hamas) chooses to hole themselves up in residential areas and mosques, what does the other warring side do?
I'm against the Keane appointment for footballing reasons only.
But putting aside the obvious divisions within the support, DD is likely to be unmoved by any protestations. Plus also, if you're a potential Celtic signing target, would you honestly okay for a team whose support are at loggerheads with each other. Ugly and sad.
If people on this forum disagree with my view I respect that. Conversely please respect my view.
On a positive note, I'd like Bellamy. He comes across as having fire on his belly, and has done ok with Wales.
{Ed007's Note - The genocide didn't start in Spring 2025 though or October 7th, that's what people either don't understand or refuse to accept - that's like saying the Irish Rebellion started in 1969.
You do know Hamas are - and have been for years - helped, assisted and were third party funded by Israel right, you are aware of that fact?

And the reason we have hamas and hezbolla and the houthys is down to Israels attempt to take their land and these factions are resisting, the west would like you to believe they are not welcome even in their own countries which is bs if it wasn't for them Israel would have taken the whole region.
{Ed007's Note - We could go round in circles here but the main point is Keane's actions are inexcusable. }

What evidence have you got for Israel supporting Hamas Ed?
Did you check the 2019 UN request for Palestine (Hamas) to ensure full rights for women which they refused? Are you happy Hamas stand for the total annihilation of the nation of Israel? Are you ok with that?
{Ed007's Note - Read THIS. And yes I was/am ok with that but sadly that's not their official stance now. since the 2017 Document of General Principles.
Are you against people defending their land against armed invasion and genocide?
Are you OK with that?
And Israel being a nation is debatable, it's like calling Norn Iron a country.}
