Someone else summed up 'Sellick Da' nicely.
1. Fundamentally misunderstand what's happening.
2. Get annoyed about it.
3. Lack all self-awareness about how their protests are thoroughly cementing their Sellick Da status. That would apply to most folk at some point so it kind of negates the whole thing

There’s a cracking post on the huddle board with a Celtic da point system. Sums it up well. Lifted the list, which is excellent, from yer man parkhead_rfb, who I am sure won't mind.
BUT as good as it is this list is clearly not complete and needs revision. Where, for example, are tasteful yet understated Celtic polo shirts and how many points are they worth? How many pin badges does one need to wear on one's person to start accruing bonus points? What about wannabe hipster obscure t-shirts dedicated to Mohammed Saleem and Giles Heron? I need to know so that I can confirm I am the once and future Boss of all Celtic Das fight this heresy in the streets.

The celtic da diagnostic tool
Few threads on this so I thought it would be helpful to have a proper guide to allow self diagnosis.
Now, not ever celtic da has to tick 100% of the boxes. Being a celtic da is a spectrum.
I've decided to set the threshold for diagnosis at 10 points on the scale.
Owning a t shirt with celtic or republican images phoshopped on it. 10 points
Tweeting summer harl she looks lovely etc. 10 points
Attended Neil Lennon vigil. 8 points
Listening to the radio clyde phone in. 6 points
Calling the phone in. 8 points
Reading the record or sun. 6 points
Tweeting celtic burds. 6 points
Sharing celtic/sevco memes or similar images. 6 points
Reading Phil or shampooe like that's blogs. 6 points
Asking for follows from the celtic family. 6 points
Announcing the green brigade do not speak for you. 6 points
Wearing a replica top as casual day wear. 4 points
Genuine belief we are the greatest fans in the world. 4 points
Expressing sympathy pointing out its from a celtic fan. 4 points
Moaning about pyrotechnics or the content of a fans display. 4 points
Green and white trainers or otherwise celtic related. 2 points
Crucifix outside of t shirt. 2 points
Avoiding internal fan confrontation by pleading "we aren't huns". 2 points
Likes u2 and catb. 2 points
Celtic crest tobacco tin. 2 points
Not understanding players won't read your tweets. 2 points
Referencing the 90's as a reason not to moan now. 2 points
Weans with traditional fenian names. 2 points for first child. One for each additional child
Dug named after celtic player. 2 points
Edited to add that I am slow enough to be a Sellick granda.

Edited to add that I am slow enough to be a Sellick granda. Last week I said that the Celtic Da' patter was atrocious. But having done the checklist there, and having scored 0pts, I've come to realise that it's the finest bantz since Mr Custard.
What about half and half scarves? Are they Celtic da'?
And it's only dugs named after Celtic players, right? Cats don't count?

It's a difficult one, as it's well documented that cats are huns.

There can’t be many in this forum who score under 10 on that list I’m into the 20s If I reject the premise of this, and say that I’m disgusted by the values being presented by the author, and culturally it is both vapid and nonsensical, would that make me, by default, a Dadaist?

4 points. Green and white trainers. I'm slightly disappointed I only scored 10, was thinking of claiming one but I'd only be cheating myself, very hunnish behaviour
Haud on, claiming hunnish behaviour should be worth a couple of points, surely?
