No-one’s taking it seriously, it just a laugh and a wee bit of venting. Go with the flow, there must be online Tims who you find simmet-rippingly annoying as well, no? |

You had me at atmosphere and special fans. I've already retweeted it as I don't have time to read to the end of the quote.

I'm following a 'You're called Sevco' Facebook group and its regularly funny. If people don't like social media, then they can simply switch off their computers. |

Going viral is big business nowadays, so I can legitimately picture people pushing their Twitter handle into every conversation like it's a business card. It's a bit like aggressively trying to get everyone you meet to buy the shampooey CD you and your shampooey band made. Everyone wants to be the next ArsenalFanTV winker. |

It’s not about liking or not liking it, it’s more a critique of the semi-literate, pig-ignorant, moron-laden zoo it invariably is. |

What was worse were the trolls verbally abusing her and went to the effort of finding her sisters on twitter to abuse them too. I’m sure that’s worse than a few 50 year olds replying to her photos saying “your gorjuz xxx” |

If someone introduced themselves to me as something like, “Hi, I’m @weejinky67upthera” it’s the last thing they’d ever get to say to me in real life. |

This has to stop. 250 retweets. Over 1,000 likes. Grown men, who pretend to support Celtic via social media, are actually falling for this stuff. This has reached critical mass. We can no longer be a club like no other; we must restrict membership to our Celtic family. <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Thiago Silva "Hardest opponent? Probably Dembele (Celtic), he gave me a terrible night as a defender, he was so strong and powerful but with technical quality. He scored a great goal. I would like to see him one day at PSG for sure but Celtic are a big club also" (France 24) <a href="https://t.co/3rzTOztCfv">pic.twitter.com/3rzTOztCfv</a></p>— - (@OSN1601) <a href="https://twitter.com/OSN1601/status/984842057721065472?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">April 13, 2018</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script> |

Mind Celtic Underground used to do their top 20 Celtic online punters? Think they’d be called social media influencers now.

The Celtic Wiki is going to need some remedial action in that case... |

Jeez, really? Was it a Sunday Times Rich List-style annual event? Or weekly, like Top of The Pops?

I recall reading of a ‘meet up’ on another Celtic forum - the organiser arranged to have name badges containing usernames of the attendees on them which were dished to everyone out on arrival. Edited by FatherSpliffmas, 30 May 2018, 09:40 PM.

After reading through this thread it has given me a fresh impetus for the coming season. We need to take the fight to the mustard cords gang. No more of the fennel-flavoured condom brigade. This is war. |

Was just about to mention this. They get more and more ridiculous as they go on. There was one last week about Messi talking about Moussa that people were lapping up

Aye to be fair Twitter is a decent tool for tickets. Used to be excellent back in days of Ronny for picking up extras. Made a few contacts which now deal with on WhatsApp. |
