I can fully understand why clubs just don't want to go near the issue because it's virtually impossible to strike the right tone without being seen to empower one side of the other and even by not going near it they're still not going to escape criticism.

 

The whole Ukraine comparison we're seeing on Liverpool social media is a nonsense as well because the sides are more clearly defined and there aren't victims on both sides in such huge numbers (so openly at least).

 

 

 

Yeah, it's Uefa that don't want to go near it really, as their advertisers will be pissed off if you can't show the hoardings.

 

Whichever way you cut it, flying flags of a country mere hours after a massacre was carried out in the name of said country - no matter how oppressed it is - will always hit a nerve. If Ukraine rebels slaughtered Russian women and children right now I'd hardly want a Ukraine flag flying against Bournemouth with "resistance" or suchlike slogans tonight. 

 

There's siding with the oppressed and then there's being a bit of a dickhead. I suspect some of the "ultras" just like pushing buttons though, and the Celtic board are using this opportunity.

Anyway, Celtic are in a spiral of underachievement in Europe as there’s no real incentive for the board to invest more in players when they’re already waltzing to the title every year 

 

The club must make a killing from the Champions League tv money, though. Would be interesting to see the Scottish domestic and European tv rights compared.

While the group stages it's OK. When they go back to failing to make the group stages it becomes a issue again.

Fuck Lazio. I remember driving into Rome and seeing S.S Lazio in graffiti on a bridge but the SS was the same as the nazi ss symbol. Racist shitbags. 

 

 

As for Celtic, can't even blame Rodgers. Celtic are by and large fucking woeful in Europe. That said, 2nd half they should have put it to bed before Immobile came on. 

 

Still - another title is on the way.

You jinx.


Let’s see on Sunday. (I’ve got a feeling it will be a rout for them…) 

 

However they still need to come to Celtic Park and we’ve got a Scottish cup semi final inbetween.
