Celtic Diary Tuesday November 27: What Are They Hiding ?
Something is rotten in the state of Scotland.
Alright, something else is rotten in the state of Scotland.
Brendan Rodgers came out in defence of his players yesterday, after a leaked memo blamed them for crowd trouble amongst “rangers ” fans at the end of the last match between the two sides.
He began by pointing out the change in narrative that has actually become accepted as a depiction of the events…
It’s not necessarily a lap of honour,”
“You guys will have seen it travelling up and down the country to all our games where we play. We always show an appreciation to our support wherever it is. The players’ behaviour on the pitch is important.
“But I think, off the field, of course, it’s the responsibility of everyone. I don’t think you can blame the players on the field if you have supporters that are trying to get over disabled supporters.
“That’s not the fault of the players on the pitch. There’s a responsibility to come and behave. “Like I’ve always said, give a real staunch support of your team.
“But every supporter, Celtic, rangers, whoever, when you come it is a ground, you have to behave.
“It’s an interesting one because when I first came into Celtic, I said to the players that what was going to be absolutely vital for us as a team is to have this incredible support with us,”
“I made a point with the players that after every game, whether we win, lose or draw, we shall acknowledge the support. And from that very first game, the players have always done that.
“So whether it’s been at Parkhead or Ibrox or away at Inverness or Ross County, whether they’ve won, lost or drawn, we always recognise the incredible support we have and the efforts they are making to come up and down the country and fly in from all across Europe.
“So I think it’s a little unfair if the Celtic players are blamed for another team’s behaviour.
“‘Listen, there are enough issues around these games. You just take yourself back to the root of what the problem was. We’ve had a couple of years here when the games have been great.
“The intensity and the support. Everything. Now there seems to be more issues with it.”
The club itself, of course, was silent on the accusations.
Regular readers will be aware that the clubs PR department is not high on the diarys “Great things about Celtic ” list.
In fact, its not on it at all, and this particular episode highlights why.
We’re used to the club not defending the fans, but the players ? Thats a whole new level of ineptitude.
It’s the boards policy not to react to these kind of attacks. They see it as beneath them, and prefer to ignore such outbursts as they do not wish to validate it by recognising it. Their attitude is that we know they are talking shite, so its not worth getting involved in a slanging match.
During the Brexit campaign, David Cameron refused to get into a slanging match as Boris Johnson tottered around the country talking shite and making all sorts of nonsensical claims and accusations. It became personal,
Cameron let him carry on, refusing to stoop to his level, and we all know how that turned out.
Thats why every time the media spout their Traynor written propaganda, the club must call it out.
We hear that the upcoming report on the Janefield underpass will not be kind to the police, largely because they were, in fact to blame, as many witnesses have stated. That may explain the move to get their story out forst, in an attempt to discredit what will undoubtedly be dismissed as a Celtic commissioned report absolving the club of any blame.
As the police originally didn’t want to take part in the investigation, its no surprise that now they are being blamed they will try to discredit it.
Seriously, wait and see.
If the PR department needs a bit of help in putting a statement together, I’ll happily help.
In fact, as long as they use the words “off “, ” fuck ” and “you’re taking shite ” in there somewhere, it should have the desired affect.
Lee McCulloch, in the Evening Times, has been handed the Boris Johnson role by the Fat Controller in this particular attempt to distort the facts..
Lee McCulloch: Old Firm laps of honour, like Leigh Griffiths’ against Rangers, have to go
You see, a subtle change to describe the action of thanking your own supporters after a game to a “lap of honour ”
What we should ask the players to do is lie on the grass, and spin rapidly to one side.
We could call it a “Roll of Honour ”
I’M not surprised to see the police looking at the laps of honour in Old Firm matches.
Me neither, it must really piss them off that their team hasn’t had the chance to do one for a few years.
Sadly, we all know about the coin-throwing incidents that have blighted our game of late, and safety has to come first.
And the batteries, and the pitch invasions, and the racism, and the attacks on players…none of which warranted this much attention, but we know why, don’t we…?
If the powers that be feel that players are provoking fans or giving them a reason to be upset, then maybe we shouldn’t be doing it.
Yes, he’s right. From now on don’t score any goals, as you’ll upset the opposition fans. In fact, if you even get a throw in, chuck the ball directly to one of your opponents.
Yes, we all like to celebrate with the fans, but if it is going to become hostile then it’s just not worth it.
There’s nothing wrong with going up to your fans to thank them for their support and acknowledge that, but there’s no place for rubbing the noses of the opposition fans in it. All it does is give a certain element an excuse to behave badly.
This line of thinking is right up there with telling women what not to wear in case they provoke rapists …
You can argue whether or not the burden of responsibility should rest with players or fans to ensure good behaviour,
No you can’t. We are all responsible for our own behaviour. If you don’t believe me, try it as a defence in court.
“your honour, he made me steal his car by parking it in the street to show me he had a better one than I have. ”
but I would agree that things like Leigh Griffiths celebrating in front of the Rangers fans, as we saw after the last game at Celtic Park, should be stopped. That isn’t sour grapes from a Rangers fan, that is as much for his own safety as anything else.
Seriously ? Read that again. He is telling Griffiths to know his place, and not to upset people by celebrating, or he’ll get whats coming to him.
With everything that has been happening lately, the welfare of the players has to come first, and if that means that players can’t celebrate wildly in front of even their own fans after victories then I’m afraid that’s just the price that has to be paid in the current climate.
Or, and this may be a little radical, we could just arrest those who actually misbehave and fine or jail them accordingly.
Clapping your fans as you walk off? Fine. Swinging a scarf over your head close to the opposition fans? Not so much.
We have had coins thrown at managers and players, and a fan even decked a goalkeeper, so we have to look to do whatever is necessary to calm the tensions that are currently bubbling up all over the Scottish game.
Ah…he means we should just let “rangers ” win, and then no one will get hurt.
And this attitude is given a platform in the media.
It would be interesting to see how “rangers ” players react should they ever actually win anything that matters.
But i guess we’ll never know…
As we know, when the establishment club is threatened, or they want to hide something, the media duly oblige with a little bit of deflection.
Yesterday it was cranked up a few notches.
I cannot for the life of me think why…
When is the Rangers AGM 2018?
The annual general meeting of Rangers International Football Club plc takes place on Tuesday November 27.
By the time you read this, it’ll probably be finished, and we’ll know how deep they are in the doo doo by how much shite they throw across the city.
If we know that they lost £14m, and we know that they do not have the revenue streams or investors lined up to deal with that, and they know we know that, bearing in mind their tendency to dispense with the truth, how much trouble are they really in ?
And why are the SFA allowing them to do exactly the same-that is, to run their club with unsustainable losses-as the original Ibrox club did prior to the inevitable liquidation?
It could be that, but it could also be that they are all in it so deep now that there is no option but to see it through to the bitter end, and what then ?
For now, they’ll keep the hordes happy with a few leaked stories about new players, and fresh investment, but the reality is that this entity is already on life support.
Then they’ll just fold and restart, this time without having to go through the leagues…they changed that rule, remember ?
They’ll just start all over, with no debt and fresh investment next season, in the top league, to launch a fresh campaign to stop nine in a row.
King will disappear into the sunset, and a new line up of old faces will return…
Make no mistake, there are an awful lot of peepil who are going to do all they can to prevent the ten.
Which the club are aware of, and need to be calling out at every possible opportunity.
We will need a wider audience watching when the next fix takes place, and perhaps we should be reminding them of the last one as well.
We’ve seen this film before, and I’m surprised anyone would allow a re-make…its all far too predictable.
Maybe we should all light up our phones on the twelfth minute of every games, in the same way as we do on the 67th.
Especially during European games.
That would draw attention, and prompt questions from outwith Scotland. In places where the media actually ask questions, for instance.
Another long running episode will hit the streets this week, Mark Hughes is about to be axed as boss at Southampton, and Brendan Rodgers is in the Controlled frame to replace him, which is a bonus for the fourth estate, as they thought they’d have to wait until the Tottenham job came up before they could his feet as itchy again.
One person we could do without getting itchy feet is Karamoke Dembele, He turns 16 very soon, and will be able to sign a professional contract. Hopes are high that he’ll do it with Celtic, but there will be a massive sense of relief when he does…
Rodgers also plans to have a chat with Leicester about Filip Benkovic, who it appears is exactly the type of player Billy McNeill used to say he liked…those who can quickly become Celtic minded… this chat could be interesting, and beneficial..
The other centre half, Dedryck Boyata, said he wishes he had come to Celtic earlier than he did..
“I should have taken that step of joining Celtic even earlier.
He can put that right by signing a new deal…
But over on Ghana Soccer net, there was a worrying development..
Already linked to Besiktas, Belgian international centre-back Dedryck Boyata (27), according to Bristol Post, has been targeted by Fulham. Playing for Celtic Glasgow since 2015/16, former Man. City player is currently on a deal with Scottish giants only until May 2019, and might be signed over on an about 4 million euros exit fee in January.
This January the club will not make the same mistakes as last summer. We will be underwhelmed by the signings, to an extent, but remember, the policy is to invest in players we know…
And we know that our manager can develop players way beyond the level they are at when they arrive…
Caption competition yesterday…

Haw Isa, apologies for yesterday’s shitty little ditty, it wont be happening again, see yea down the Clansman the night. I’le buy you a wee sherry, well done ghirl on your late night postal delivery.
Thank you Mike. Apology accepted, no harm done x
Thank you Christina, I waited and waited for you last night, but I realised that you had given me a dizzy and I thought to myself, that I deserved it. Speak soon. 😉
Wee bit worried upsetting the neighbours with my chattering so thought stag do might be preferable? Caught up on all your excellent posts buy you a pint next time I’m in to make up!
Mike you read Celtic Research Twitter Account re FOI request to Police Scotland re game 2 September. Strongly recommend reading (I’m actually taking 5 mins out as temper getting better of me so can’t give full concentration) found this via Celtic News Now posts – can see where report came from now!!
Will do Christina! cheers.
Good morning Christina, i hope you are enjoying this fine Winter morning.
A little dew on the grass, mist on the field & the relaxing notes of the birds in the trees, tending to their young & mending their nests.
Beautiful imagery Monti
Light up your phones on the 12th minute at every Celtic game and back Res.12. Tell the World about the cheating, #Res.12.
Nae cunt will see it from my living room though….
You could always try a fairy light. 😉

Hi,Ralph.
My sisters were in Janefield Street that day. Terrifying,and they aren’t a pair of shrinking violets.
I’m disappointed that nothing was said by the club about that statement,but do we really want to become like Statement FC? So,rock and a hard place,I’m afraid.
The article in question arose from a FOI request by,of all people,The Daily Record,so that alone begs the question-who prompted that move? I somehow think I know the answer to that,and I reckon others share the same suspicions.
more to the point,grateful thanks for the link to SC on Friday,very much appreciated and the favour will be returned on request. If I can again beg your indulgence for our latest

Clearly the police are getting their retaliation in first,to quote
Danny Blanchflower, because of their culpability in the Janefield incident. Any chance they could appeal to second Rangers fans to stop attacking supporters of rival teams and maybe they could actually police their games, that would be a novelty.
Caption: at the sevco AGM Dave King denies they can’t afford the underground heating.
Christina she walked through the fair, eyes like diamonds and ribbons in her hair,
Her walk so graceful each step a velvet touch, her long silk dress, encapsulating & fit like a glove.
She left men breathless with her beauty & her wit , not least an old man, bag o sweets & walking stick,
He was madly in love & for her love he would fight,
With his plastic hip, glass eye & his stick, it looks like the fight was one by Mike.
So it’s farewell & adieu to Mike & his Rose….fuck knows what she’ll say when she sees that nose.
HAHAHAHAHA.

Monti… I was filling up there reading you prose… Then I want for a slash…
I blame Big Yogi for scoring the two penalties which FORCED the defenders of Her Madginess to attack him as he left the pitch at Hampden. If only there were footage…

He’ll be looking to nip into a Golf club, mixing with the Findlay’s & Trevor’s.

Ian Bankier is a fucking disgrace of a man, the club is being shat on from all sides & he let’s the manager answer this shite from the Police?
Vote of no confidence in this fuck, get the fuck out of Celtic & take a few others with you.
Do they not understand they are duty bound to stand up for the club?
They get annoyed at a few Rebel songs but are allowing others to kick the club?
Celtic needs people, individuals who say ” fuck you we aren’t taking it “!
I was born for the Celtic PR job, let me at it!
At what point are you going to let it sink in they are no longer running a “Club” Monti?
It’s a Business who operates a Football Team as its “main” means of making money.
This is and always will be the disconnect between you the fan/supporter and them the business man.
To change this you need to change Celtic.
You know the rest …
At what point are you going to realise that grown men shouldn’t be playing with their soldiers in a loft on a daily basis?
Em about the age of 8.

There’s a vote of confidence in him everytime he’s up for re-election and he usually wins with about 99% of the vote.
Sad/poor/disgraceful but, unfortunately, reality.
I wish the SPFL would introduce a law that no Chief Executive can earn over half a million a year.
Then you’ll see Lawwell’s big swinging dick.

Bankier clearly didn’t think that calling us racists,or telling us “you lot,behave yourselves!” was enough.
No,he had to call us sectarian.
Now,many in Scottish football will state that ones as bad as the other when it comes to us and the huns. I usually explain diplomatically-as is my wont-why that is wrong.
For our chairman to do so is a disgrace,and,see above,he has form for it.
He should be nowhere near our club.
Anti-semitic as well, if I recall correctly.
The muse Bankier`ll be too busy on TripAdvisor.

I want Celtic Football Club back.
I want the person or persons (hopefully all of us who actually give a shite about history and what Celtic means) who run Celtic to do so with the emotion and feeling towards it that we all have.
So long as it is owned ,run and controlled by men with Financial interests first and foremost this will never be the case.
Anyone who thinks it is or can be both under them is deluding themselves.
A fan owned and controlled Celtic would simply not put up with any of the pish we seem to accept year after year.
All that matters to these charlatans is the bottom line.
How much,how soon can I get it.
History has and will prove me right on this time ,after time,after time.
Until that changes you may as well just accept it and happy clap whatever “success” comes THEIR way.

You know that as a club we have never been stronger, never been in a better position financially. We have a brilliant manager and in my humble opinion both the finances and the manager are co-joined. HE has brought the support back to the club, season ticket sales are up with even a waiting list, HE has delivered domestic success never seen before, except the legend that was Stein and his Lions. Double trebles (going for three) had never before been achieved. But its the monies that he has delivered both domestically but especially the C.L. qualifiers and the Europa that HE has delivered. HE is the one who has brought the very best out of our players. Its the same with sponsorships, our managers success has delivered sponsors wishing to be seen alongside our successful team. If and when he decides to leave us, as he will one day but hopefully not for a while, HE will be able to look back at his time with us and remember the great things that he has done on all our behalf’s. So when the board pats each other on their backs, remember who was it that led our great team to unparalleled success, who it was that guided the team that delivered success, that brought in all the monies that have made our great club stronger, it was HE Brendan Rodgers, the man from Carlough.
Don’t focus solely on the negatives, remember where we are, who we are, try to enjoy our currant success, its so easy to get caught up in negativity, try to appreciate more the success that is Celtic. On Sunday the first of a possible treble for the third year, top of the league. Push the bigotry to the back of your brain and enjoy the team, the way we are playing is a reflection on Brendan’s first season, points may get lost because for all teams when they play Celtic it is their cup final. Enjoy these special times, enjoy the Celtic, put everything else on the back burner and remember we are Celtic…..
I’m focusing on the realities not the negatives.
The positives of the achievements stand alone as they rightly should and are appreciated the same as they have always been.
However denying the true situation is not helping anyone Bar those who stand to make the most out of the situation.
The longer this continues the more these situations will arise and the likelihood more fans and supporters will ultimately get sick of it and turn their backs on the “Club”.
We have had guys in here who have supported Celtic for 40,50 years telling us they sacked it when fuck all was done to redress the issues that concern most the most.
That’s not a foundation you want to move forward on.
Happy clap all you want because at some point the Trophies will dry up and then what are you left with?
A fucking PLC with a half empty Stadium.
It doesn’t need to be like this there is another way.
All it will take is momentum and for us all to come together as one.
Get these charlatans to fuck and create the Celtic we all want.
Players,Managers,Directors all come and go Celtic Fans are the only constant in all this.
Celtic the Club exists in us and through us.
To them it’s a marketing tool and a very successful one at that.
Enjoy the fitba all the same Mike
HH
Half empty stadium, as opposed to a full one, is simply related to how well the team is doing.
Under Ronnie Deila towards the end, attendances plummeted, not due to unhappiness with governance issues but due to the perceived sterility of the football.
When Brendan Rodgers came in, the governance issues were probably worse, as they’d still not been addressed but the Full House signed went up.
We may not like that but, sadly, the reality is that performances on the park is the sole determinant of crowd size.
I agree with that. In fact only a very small minority of Celtic supporters care about what the Board does at all. The reality is that we are financially strong, have a very good squad, have a good youth system, have an excellent stadium and a first class manager. Brendan Rogers came out in support of the players. That makes sense to me. As Ralph points out, best to avoid being lured into a Celtic v the rest trap. The continued focus on our own Board as the enemy is exactly what the MSM and others want. We would be better advised to identify people who have a real agenda against Celtic and are working that agenda happily, while we complain about the Board. yes they are far from perfect and much better than our actual enemies.
There is not much negatives that relate to the team, that is my point don’t let your enjoyment of the fitba. detract from all the negativity surrounding the board, or football governess, If we cannot enjoy the team’s success on the park, then what is the point. The point is this… that thousands of Celtic supporters will enjoy the League Cup final on Sunday, the last thing that they will be thinking about is the Celtic board, or football governess… Enjoy the team, enjoy the day, there is a time and place for everything, if we cannot enjoy Celtic at the moment then we will never enjoy it.. never.
Brendan Rodgers came to Celtic and attendances have in modern times improved big time, his development of the players is in plain sight, he and the players have taken the Celtic to new heights. Of course if he were to leave and another diddy took charge and the team began to fail, then yes sadly attendances would fall away. That is the whole point enjoy it for the time being…
BTW if supporting your team and enjoying its success makes me a “Happy Clapper” then I am proud to be called one. I will enjoy the football like many other thousands because I can enjoy my team, you on the other hand, you sit at home watching Celtic T.V. and continue to talk shite. Have you ever actually played football? probably a kick about with your pals but hold on a minute while you pollute us with tales of mince about tactics, the really sad thing is that you actually believe it, what a wally…
Why else would you we be posting on a Forum if it wasn’t for the fact we talk shite?
I would grade your particular brand top quality shite for the record 😉 xxx
Why are you on a football site for a club that you have no intention of supporting?
Oh I will Support it when it becomes a Football Club once more.
A fool and his money are soon parted.
No what I am saying is I am no fool so therefore will not be parting with a penny in THEIR direction until things change.
What other people choose to chuck their disposable income at is up to them.
From my own perspective I don’t have that much of it left after the bills are paid so have to choose where and what it goes on with a bit of care and a sensible approach.
I should imagine most who do so are aware of the situation Celtic now finds itself in.
“football governess”.
Is that the type of governess who disciplines you when you’re a naughty bhoy?
Then there is a lot of Celtic supporting fools, is that what your saying???

Good to hear Rosenborg May field a weakened side due to their cup final on the weekend they’ve already wrapped up their league, so here’s hoping
PISH! It’s just mind games being played by our own f’king media in Scotland!
No, its come from Christian Wulf who’s a Celtic/Rosenborg supporting Norwegian journalist, who knows his onions.
The theory is that they’ve won (or will do shortly) their league, they’ve got a Cup Final at the weekend and are already out of EL.
I’m ambivalent, as we seem to play better the harder the test and when we get it “easy” we tend to mess it up.
Correction: Rosenborg can still qualify if they win their 2 remaining games by big scores and us and Leipzig lose our 2 badly.
Scotland fielded a weakened side over two games in the last International break.
That turned out alright 😉
Exactly, did you see first choice Matt Ritchie’s stunning finish for Newcastle last night?
No bud I will have a wee look online see if it’s on YouTube
The Evening Rag is now just a mouthpiece for the Wankers, a rag that I ignore, Jiggsy a nasty piece of work that tried to Finnish Kayal, as usual the media called it a coming together.
Look at the knuckledraggers in he media, if the following had happened to the Wankers w would be having an enquiry
Robertson attempted to cheat us on Saturday, when he ignored a blatant penalty. Also the issue with the seven balls being soft, the officials are supposed to check them. That is one reason Lustig should get a contract, he is truly Celtic minded.
As for the muppet Police, BR has put them back in their box with his statement.
As for the board and Liewell, they should return to the Stygian depths from where they came from, at least Bankiers name rhymes well.

No, Lustig should only get a new contract if he can still do it for us on the park and not simply because he’s good at pumping. 🙂

Attendances didn’t plummet and whose perception was it due to the sterility if the football ? Ronnie didn’t know enough or have the ability to get his ideas to the players. He had some very good, good and less good players like nearly every team but his ideas were mostly flawed. I didn’t stop going because the football was sterile. Did you ? With the most expensive defender in the world we still got beaten by Hamilton. Snowflake “fans”

I seem to remember Huns throwing their shirts into their “fans” after securing a draw at Parkhead and several of their “fans” invading the pitch at Firhill after scoring a winner late on,with Hun players hugging the intruders.Add in their invasion at Hampden after being pumped by Hibs in the Cup Final and a “fan” trying to confront Broonie.They talk about Provo cation! As Erudite would state ‘Stupid,stupid Huns’….
Dave Glib and Shameless is going to get his ass tanned in court on Thursday,they gloss over a £14m loss at their “quiet” AGM,Gerrraarrd says he wants to stay longer,oh yes…they just keep on giving….they play Villareal (16th in Spanish league) on Thurs and Turncoat Stevie states they are a CL class team.Ghod really has a brilliant sense of humour,mind you,He invented it.

An open letter to the Celtic PR team.
Hey guys great work, I really feel that you have, going forward, a helicopter view of our transformation strategy that will be a game changer, taking us to the next level. I’m going to add value to your offer by chucking you a couple of bones and finding out whose the devil dog at Crufts (free gratis btw).
PR also stands for per rectum and I’ve been undertaking some naturalistic observation on ETims, (I know but as a focus group they are totally representative of the not on message, rebel-dads demographic). These guys think your getting fucked up the arse so try this on in duty free and then buy a bottle
1. We sign the top 11 gay players on the planet and rebrand the ‘lap of honour’ as a Pride march. No problem for Plod McPlod there.
2. OK blue sky time so strap in. We sign 11 Northern Irish Orangemen and build a Roman Catholic church (wiki it) at the away end. Absolutely no issues for Plod McPlod there.
3. We stop putting up a football coach and the goalie sub as the club spokesmen on non-football matters and tell Plod McPlod to get to fuck via those old guys in the suits on the padded seats.
Now I’ve used Latin twice so being PR guys you’ll think I’m a genius. Make it so.
This business of discrediting Celtic dishonestly has a long ignoble history in this country:
The SFA injunction re the flag in the 1950s.
The lies of the Tory MP who blamed Celtic fans for the riot at the 1980 Cup Final.BTW this riot was a consequence of a police blunder.
