Contempt this Celtic Board has for the support is off the scale

It’s not exactly a secret that the lifeblood of every football club professional or amateur is the supporter base, and Celtic football club is no exception…

The supporters are the ones who descend on a weekly basis to support our Celtic players, whether that’s at home or the length and breadth of the country, or further afield in the continent, and they pay good money to do so.

Even the ones who can’t attend for whatever reasons, do their best to support the club, whether that’s through purchasing merchandise or having a Celtic TV subscription, we all plough our hard earned money into the club’s coffers in different ways, making us a major contributor in the clubs very heartbeat.

Each and every one of us are the glue that holds this club together, not the rich men and women who currently hold the power, and without us the club is worthless.

That’s what makes the recent shunning of the supporters all that more deplorable. From the banning of the Green Brigade to the blackout of Celtic fan media, we are all being treated with sheer contempt by an incompetent self serving bunch of shysters, and it’s got to end, and end soon for the sake of the stability of the club.

The club this week have yet again angered the supporters, in sinking to a new low (if that’s possible) by inviting fan media of another club into the grounds, to have an exclusive sit down with a current Celtic player.

Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain is the player in question, who was allowed to conduct an interview with Liverpool fan media! It provided an abundance of comments, features, podcasts and so on yesterday.

Look, I’ve nothing against the player or indeed the good folks of Liverpool fan media, but the fact that our club are laying out the welcome mat for another group of supporters is a massive kick in the teeth to us all. The very fact that they also roll the red carpet out to rival supporters and lying twisted hacks who are vocal in their hatred of our club, is another damning indictment of the contempt they have for their own supporters.

Just an Ordinary Bhoy

An ordinary everyday Celtic supporters hailing and still residing in Govan in the shadows of the enemy. I’m a season ticket holder. I Witnessed my first Celtic game in 1988 and have attended when I can ever since. Growing up in the 90s I witnessed Celtic at their lowest, and now appreciate the historic success we enjoy today. I enjoy writing about this wonderful football club and hopefully will continue to do so. I’ve always been a keen writer and initially started this a hobby. My ambition is to one day become as good an author as my fellow Celtic Star colleagues.

  1. I have nothing but total contempt for Desmond’s minions. Not a man among the lot of them.hh

  2. The board are rank rotten and need to be replaced but not at the whim of the self styled green brigade. Who TF do they think they are.
    They claim to be fervent supporters but they only cost the club money with their pyrotechnics and other general spoiled brats behaviour.
    They need to sign up to a behaviour code before being readmitted.
    That should not be a hardship, but in case they start whining again, that would only bring them into line with other supporters.
    They are so far up their own arses they probably won’t do that.
