Celtic twitter used to be good back in the day when anything went. I myself only dipped my toes in while banned from the three main Celtic forums. All of a sudden you could run riot making up any shampooe. But folk took it seriously and you'd end up with classic threads that would rival the best on KDS.

Mind Celtic Underground used to do their top 20 Celtic online punters? Think they’d be called social media influencers now. :lmao:
Jeez, really? Was it a Sunday Times Rich List-style annual event? Or weekly, like Top of The Pops? :ponder:
Annual.

Think KDS got a few awards
You gracefully declined, I trust?

The Celtic Da’s Patter is the most cringeworthy pish ever... even more so because it’s used by self proclaimed Uber cool wee knobs to deflect away from the fact that they can’t get served anywhere other than the social club before a game.

Never awarded, to my eternal disgust.

I would have posted about it everywhere.

He's actually spot on about the pub. :lol: You see all the young team heading for the CSA on London Road. They'd shampooe themselves in the Springy Vaults or Turnstiles.

That's not to say the social club isn't a decent boozer. Cracking venue when the Bairns have left after their second bottle of Bacardi breezer.

The young team go to the CSA because it's where the Green Brigade are based not because they are scared to have a beer in Turnstiles ffs :lol:

How do you become an übercelt?
A picture of Messi in a Celtic strip and retweeting some bullshampoo never-happened quote from a Barcelona player helps

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Xavi: “The atmosphere generated by the fans in Celtic’s stadium for our visit was the most impressive I’ve ever witnessed.” <a href="https://t.co/Vu7jxcoqA0">pic.twitter.com/Vu7jxcoqA0</a></p>— CelticBible (@CelticBible) <a href="https://twitter.com/CelticBible/status/922551645183062016?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">October 23, 2017</a></blockquote>

I'm halfway there then....got the Messi in a Celtic strip covered.

Never said they were scared just that they are lacking in chin fluff to qualify for being served :lol:

That said I wouldn’t rush for a pint in turnstiles either... knew (rented a flat) from the guy that owned it in the nineties which makes me a proper Celtic Da and for the record I do like the CSA too :thumbsup:

Then there's the weirdest of all the weird stuff going on since 'the event' of 2012 - the guy who pretends he's a Celtic fan even though he knows you know he's not a Celtic fan. Has anyone else experienced one of these weirdos yet? If you haven't yet - you will. It might be a little shocking at first, but it shouldn't. It's coming.

In years gone past, these dicks would have played the, "not really into football, more of a rugby man" card. Or they would have had at least had the decency to hide behind their wee diddy team. Motherwell used to be a particularly good wee diddy cover team for these reprobates. Now they're Celtic men. Big massive, just can't get enough Celtic men. Love the Celtic so they do. They don't always agree with everything that the Green Brigade do, but they liked that banner they done at that game once. They wish the Green Brigade would sing a song about a player or a subject that they like.

I've met at least a couple of them now. A real eye-opener when you first experience it. One even has the Union Jack phone cover and the picture of the Queen. But he's a Celtic man. Just don't ask him too many questions about Celtic. That awkward, uneasy look between both of you isn't pleasant for either of you. Besides, he's a Celtic man. He just can't get enough.

Can’t say I’ve witnessed that. My neighbours (in Motherwell weirdly enough) suddenly appeared with Aberdeen scarves and tops just before the cup final last year... apparently have been dons since the Fergie days :lol: (I moved in after 2012 so who knows but didn’t see them heading off to a game last season :suspect: )

Two questions:

1) What is a Celtic Da?

2) Am I one?

You know that there are alleged Tims cutting about who have a PIN other than 1888 or 1967? Embarrassing.

I once reported someone for having that PIN to the police under the OFBA. That doesn't make me a Celtic Da, it makes me a pumpkin.
