Let's All Laugh At Celtic.


Recommended Posts


Irony is, they actually did no' bad.

 

They were up against one of the best-resourced clubs in the Bundesliga - so one of the richest clubs in one of the richest leagues in world football - playing them in Germany, with a number of 1st team (Sellik) players out injured, and a few imo being rested for the league cup semi. And they got beat 2-0. Big fucking tragedy.

 

And yet there is widespread outrage on their forums at this "shocking" result. I know, I should be used to it by now, but the sheer entitlement of their fanbase still has the power to amaze.

I saw a bit of it, but not enough to make a proper judgment really.

 

If it was a particularly spineless performance then I could sympathise with their fans to an extent, as that does grind my gears after a defeat.

 

But it's the real world. Their players know they're not gonna win the Europa league. They know they're not even likely to get out their group. So after Leipzig went ahead they probably had one eye on their Hearts semi on Sunday, only natural. But they do love a bit of outrage their fans, so-they-do-by-the-way.

I'd hate to see a 'proper judgement' from you if thats just a snippet.

That's Jim Torbett locked up.

 

No doubt this will start the latest round in disgusting point scoring from one set of the minks.

You can hear the spin now or, more to the point, maybe not........

 

"A statement will made by Celtic Football Club in due course.

 

Oh, of course, Celtic Boys Club are not part of Celtic Football Club, so the club will be making no further comment about its former employee, Jim Torbett, as legally advised by the President of the Scottish Football Association and Celtic Park season ticket holder, Allan McRae."

 

Yet another cover-up of depraved and grotesque proportions by the suits who govern our football.

Have to say the BBC report on how he was uncovered makes for horrendous reading. It's absolutely clear that jock stein knew and by implication lots of others at celtic. Shocking

The BBC documentary where they found Torbett in States that led to this second case highlighted some damning evidence about who knew and some denials from some that are very hard to believe - think it was one of Kelly family and Jack McGinn off Celtic board that were involved in a trophy business with Torbett for many years and this continued after original conviction. 6 years seems lenient sentence for second offence

I think they take into account his age and risk of reoffending. Horrible looking cunt

I'm no fan of the hun tit for tat point scoring stuff but by fuck they have a point on this one, why won't celtic release a statement at least condemning the guy they employed twice, once after his first jail stint. It reeks how much money came from celtic to his trophy business as well, lot of cover ups and sweeping stuff under the carpet, I think this is only going to get bigger. Who could have imagined catholic leaning people being involved in all this, needs a big spotlight shone on it, rancid cunts.

Celtic don't like anything that challenges their warped view of themselves. It's not surprising that they haven't said or done anything as that would be an admission that they aren't the tireless crusaders for truth and justice that they believe themselves to be. It's the same reason they can't stand Logan. He won't put up with their racism and challenges them on it and they hate him for it.

 

A disgusting club from its fans to its board.

Agree with the jist of what you are saying. I just don't agree with them using child abuse as a means of point scoring.
