Maybe because we are becoming more moonpig than football club

Since the Livi game Celtic have put out 1 tweet regarding football, all other tweets have been birthday wishes. 

Might also have something some fans believing Rodgers sold out and turned his back on Celtic. There is also possibility fans think there may be more pressing issues the club should be addressing fans about

That's the problem with pushing the notion (by club or fans) that your club is somehow special. The fanbase end up thinking human rationality doesn't apply to them. Leicester placed more value on Rodgers than Celtic did, accordingly, that's where Rodgers went.

Congratulations to Jeremie Frimpong on jumping from a sinking ship.

You will soon grow tired of keeping tabs on those who jump from that particular ship/bin fire

This is absolutely sensational.

A Celtic fan wrote SEVEN THOUSAND WORDS to say "Rangers are doping by using caffeine and it's no fair"

Of course, what he forgets is 1) There's no evidence we actually do this, and 2) Our success isn't based on the gegenpress, so we would derive almost no advantage from doing this.

From a very quick skim read, my favourite is this part 

Look at their over 30’s players. Defoe is older than Scott Brown but when he plays he seems, at times, to be years younger. 

Surely even the most stupid Celtic fan realised that it’s the fact Defoe isn’t sitting in pub doorways at 3am with a kebab in hand?

Yes, it's difficult to work out why a 38 year old teetotal vegan who spent the majority of his career in the Premier League, and whos defining trait is his professionalism, appears to be fitter than a 35 year old that loves a drink.

lol, aye. One has treated his body like a temple for the majority of his career during an era where clubs were splashing the cash on the best players money could buy in one of the worlds most physical leagues, while the other was slumped and semi conscious in the street at the small hours of the morning with the only dribbling he had to contend with was the contents of the kebab down his chin.

Aye but he makes funny faces and does a wee swagger sometimes...

Is it because they're permanently raging and never happier than when they've suffered an imaginary injustice?

Pretty sure the doorway photo was days before either a semi final or final too.

He's done it this time...

 

Lennon’s “Old Firm” Reference Today Adds Him To The List Of Liquidation Deniers.

 

For  years, senior people at our club have been at great pains to avoid the use of the phrase “Old Firm.”

How much trouble have they taken not to use it?

Let me put it this way, after a concerted fan campaign to ditch the phrase they had ceased doing it prior to 2012.

In short, Celtic stopped using the term back when Rangers was still alive.

Today that changed, like so many other things at our club in the past few months.

And the person who finally broke ranks and used the term was none other than Neil Lennon.

So there you have it folks, the club no longer even pretends not to be in the Liquidation Denial business any longer.

We’ve all known for a while that this club was perfectly content to have the Survival Lie remain unchallenged.

Perhaps we’ll send them a message congratulating them on their “150th anniversary” next year.

Maybe even on “winning 55.”

Cause that’s where our club is right now, pissing all over us from a great height and, to quote a James Cameron character, not even giving us the courtesy now of calling it rain.

Lennon’s view of the fans has also hardened into the same contempt that the rest of the club has for us; his unbelievable answer, dripping with arrogance and condescension, to the 90 Minute Cynic team today was dreadful almost beyond belief.

It was a press conference of excuses and more pish about “mitigating circumstances” being behind our failure to win in the last four games.

None of it stands up

In one of those games we played against a weakened Livingston side, and in the two Dubai hit matches we should have had more than enough about us to get victories, as they were at home.

But it’s the “Old Firm” comment that deserves to be remembered from this; it’s the day our club stopped kidding that it’s even remotely on the same wavelength as the people whose money pays for this evolving shit-show.

Today, the one person I never expected to hear endorse that lie, Neil Lennon, “one of our own”, in his capacity as the manager of our football club, joined the ranks of those pushing the most toxic idea there is.

I'll give him the benefit of the doubt and assume Holocaust Denial at least ran it a close second
