Instead, I found a bar by the Cross and had myself a quiet beer.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ll head back to Central in time for my train home.<\/p>\n<p>After all, I like to think that the wee feeling I get when I walk into Celtic Park is at least reciprocated by one or two of its current custodians.<\/p>\n<p>Seems I was wrong. They don&#8217;t give a flying fuck.

Maybe toplass horse racing, or the world one legged man arse kicking contest.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In fact, anywhere where there&#8217;s a fairly even chance that the best man will win.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Which, I am now convinced, will never be Scottish Football.<\/p>\n<p>Like the gullibilies who follow whichever team they think they&#8217;re following, there will be those who say come on lad it&#8217;s the guys on the pitch we follow..and so on.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Not me. \u00a0I&#8217;m done.<\/p>\n<p>Tell you about it Monday<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This might not work.
