I pride myself by being a Celtic supporter and have my own personal opinioin/feelings about 11/11, but after watching a few English games today, and minutes silences I'm really worried that we might give ourselves a lot of bad pr tomorrow. Don't get me wrong, I don't understand why all this has crept into football games but in a week where we have shown ourselves to be a cosmos apart from the orcs, we might get a bit of bad pr. But then again, wgaf what the scottish media thing about us ... my opinion is that they hate us anyway

Trashing Manchester in an evening of neanderthalism, or two neds booing a minutes silence and the resulting sound of everyone else telling them to shut up? Find out in Monday's Daily Record.

The Huns hijacked the Poppy and most Celtic fans realise this, so any Neds that step out of line will be set right with a good smack around the head. No worries!

Not just a forum! Posts: 6,782 Group: Snr. Member Member #43 Joined: 31 August 2004	Not worried at all, everyone is entitled to their opinion on a silence and whether or not to break it. Is it wrong that i look forward to the mock outrage of the next week and the undeniable chance to stick it to the not so educated Huns at my work?

Hopefully, Falkirk will fail to open a couple of turnstyles and it won't matter And on that note, the turnstile arrangement for the stand behind the goal is a farce. The League Cup game this season saw loads of people miss the kick-off with only two turnstiles open at each side, the stewards were clueless, polis smug. As usually happens, punters werent happy and everyone started to shove and edge forward as much as they could. Not a nice situation. A) If it happens again tomorrow and people are held up outside, whilst the inside is hushed, there will be external noise being picked up. B) I dont recall any fighting at half-time that night caused by poor turnstile facilities...although Juneau was giving it some usual secterian pish

Most of the people who have issues with this political stunt will stand outside or turn the TV over. The rest will stand and be silent sticking their chests out for SKY TV showing off their poppy on the Hoops , looking daft as if they've won the high ground or something. End of the day , who cares. Skint Huns eff them

But if someone feels the need to shout an audible IRA slogan or the likes during a minutes silence/applause, it's just playing into the hands of the press/huns/etc. Surely they can bite their tongues ffs.

Respect to opinion anti war, but what worries me is that the hypocrits in the scottish press will use this as a 'look at them' attitude. If I was at the game tomorrow, I would stand at the pie stall till the huddle. As I said, I don't know why it has crept into football.

Not once a year during the Celtic family's tribute. Protesting at the silence is counter productive because the nation associates it with respect for the war dead - not with the authorities.
