Ok, it may have some validity from both groups, still, needs to be stamped out. I dont know who did this tonight but makes no sense GB lads to be involved,may well be a few headers at the fringes and if it is, its up to GB to them to sort it out thought how long they will get to do that is questionable.

You sure it is only at the fringes I have my doubts. I hear the same about our lot and I don't believe them either

All 5 goals plus the BT Sport intro

Good performance, good result. Atmosphere looked absolutely unreal from both sets of fans, fair play.

Another penalty not given to us for an accidental handball in the box - widely seen as the correct call. Interesting.

Ah well we will have to disagree I believe that the majority of the GB and certainly the ones I know think they are bigger than the club much the same as our idiots.
They also have no regard for the laws of the land much like our lot. And know matter what anyone thinks some of the actions in the belief that their actions make the atmosphere better I am afraid not in all cases'
The fact is even before these laws came in and I personally do not agree with them in there present format the use of flares and smoke bombs was illegal

Dempsey · 07-12-2013 05:45PM

How much did it cost to repair the damaged part of Falkirks pitch? Any price put on it yet?

I'd agree with how they view themselves. The club should start billing the group when there is damage to section 111 and maybe look to section them at away games so damage to their area can be billed to them. Imagine the whining they'd do then!

No idea but if anyone is found guilty of the throwing the flare then I would like the club to sue for the money

Isn't HB the one where you can't swear or anything? Think I have an account there you're welcome to it if I can remember the details!

A Dub in Glasgo · 07-12-2013 07:34PM

Can't swear? No chance, sometimes the place is like ned central

Antifa161 · 07-12-2013 07:37PM

Ha maybe I'm thinkin of KDS. Then again we're posting on a board whose official charter says you'll get done for 'abuse' if you call Allardyce "Fat Sam" :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

LOL definitely not the HB. Anything goes on there, within reason, it's anarchic a times but good crack

Where were all the stewards and police while this gang of young teenagers were hunched down tearing metal seats out of the ground? You'd think that sort of thing wouldn't go unnoticed.

The Glorious Celtic Reputation let down by the police once again

It's quite justified this time, but you can't lump it in with most of the previous "incidents" which were complete bollocks. Reminds me a bit of whenever Lennon got in 'trouble' and they'd quote his previous, but then you look at what actually happened in those cases and it's a complete farce.

Anyone who throws pyro onto the pitch is a complete gobshíte. Not only does it ruin the match for people who just want to watch the football but it ruins it for the fans who like the pyro itself and just draws negative attention.

£10,000 to replace that section of seating apparently. Someone's been taken for a ride :pac:

A Dub in Glasgo · 08-12-2013 07:57PM

Those idiotic neds have bought into the rubbish that in order to be a better supporter, you need to be an ultra and throw smoke bombs and flares at the games

They are immature neds and the sooner they grow up the better

I think pyro does make for far better atmosphere, and most of the world seems to agree, but as I said throwing it around the place is just not on and I do not know a single person who does. Nobody 'pro-pyro' would agree with throwing it on the pitch as it just spoils it for everyone. Idiotic neds as you say.

That said, the insinuations that a smoke 'bomb' being a few yards away from Forster was some sort of danger is pathetic. It's an unnecessary annoyance at best.

"We as a group are as disappointed as any about such indefensible behaviour and regret that it happened on our watch.

"Whilst it was not members of our group behaving in this manner, we accept the fact that these actions took place behind our banner in what was an unofficial 'Green Brigade section'.

"It is particularly disappointing given how hard we have worked as a member organisation of Fans Against Criminalisation and of our own accord to fight the criminalisation of football supporters as we realise the damage that the events of Friday night could have on our efforts to challenge the continued harassment of Celtic fans by Police Scotland.

"Ultimately, we should have had greater control of the bodies present within our block and our failure to do so has resulted in events which are unacceptable."

It happened in our 'section' but it wasnt us. Pull the other one!

The main Celtic fans' group, the Affiliation of Registered Celtic Supporters Clubs, issued its own statement.

It read: "We should be discussing another devastating Celtic performance on the pitch instead we are talking about disappointments off the field.

"Lets make no mistake that incidents like Friday night at Fir Park and the publicity that this attracts makes any negotiations regarding ticket pricing, safe standing and policing at games more difficult."

We wont ever have safe standing with those neds.

Antifa161 · 08-12-2013 10:22PM

It's been 20 years since the Taylor Report and we still have all seaters. I don't think some broken seats in Fir Park will have much of an impact. Just a new stick to beat the fans with for a few weeks.

A Dub in Glasgo · 08-12-2013 10:25PM

Maybe said fans should put their money where their mouths are and pay for the few broken seats?

The club can pay for it using all the profits from the merch they sold off the back of the GB's hard work :P

Nonsense, two years ago the SPL changed the rules around safe standing. So the Taylor report isnt the reason stopping Scottish top flight clubs having safe standing. Its up to individual clubs & their fans to prove to the relevant authorities that they can implement it properly. We are never far away from the GB doing something neddish so its never going to get beyond a pipe dream.

I don't think the GB endorse any seats....

I do think they need to police their section better though. They can't pretend to be this bigboy ultras outfit when they're letting a bunch of neds come in getting mad with it chucking smoke onto the pitch etc as that damages their group.

iirc the Taylor Report only affected England and was merely used as guidance in Scotland. Nevertheless, pretending like last Friday is the reason there isn't any 'safe standing' is pretty stupid. For starters it wouldn't have happened if there was safe standing...

In 2007 twice as much damage was caused to Rugby Park when our fans celebrated the title win. There was no mock outrage or people blaming certain fans and claiming the damage was intentional. People just recognised that with a boisterous atmosphere comes broken seats. It happened at the Emirates after Dortmund were there and it's happened at City's ground from visiting European fans too. The hypocrisy is unreal sometimes, the same people I see slating the "Green Brigade" for Fir Park at the ones frothing at the gash over videos of 'class atmospheres' in Europe. Just like after Cliftonville the people saying some of our fans were a 'disgrace' and that we'd be kicked out of Europe (hahahaha) for setting off pyro, less than a week later there was a viral video of loads of Dutch fans going mental with flares and they were all passing it around saying how great it was. And then we have banners and applauses for Mandela a week after hurr durr keep politics out of football don't have a Bobby Sands banner that highlights hypocrisy. You couldn't write this stuff.

Its past incidents from fans that want to be in the safe standing areas that make the board not consider it. The incident last friday pushes the possibility further away. Its foolish to think otherwise.

The GB are getting the attention because they have brought it all on themselves. They campaign about fans against criminalization, hypocrisy etc and then do things like last friday and open themselves to condemnation and ridicule and rightfully so.

The seat damage in Rugby park that time made the news

Hagar the Nice. · 08-12-2013 11:57PM

Any Celtic fan causing damage or letting off smoke bombs should be banned for life from attending ALL football grounds.

It will be forgotten about when the media find the next stick to beat the fans with. "Fan brings bodhrán to football stadium" or something.

Saying seats being broken is a reason we won't have standing areas is like saying cannabis won't be legalised because everyone who smokes it is a criminal.

I see you've pluralised 'things'. What other, credible incidents have their been, of a magnitude great enough to negate the grievances raised by FAC?

It did, but the fuss made was fractional of what it is now
