Q: Have you had any kind of assurance, Martin, from the board that, bordering anything stupid, that they’re going to rebuff any bid that would come in for someone?
Martin O’Neill: “Right, okay. Well, we haven’t had a bid. Who are you thinking about in particular?”

Q: There was a claim that they have actually put a bid in for Arne Engels?
Martin O’Neill: “Honestly, I’m telling you, I didn’t know a thing about it. If they’d done it, then they must have done it during the game. No, no, no, seriously. No, seriously, because I didn’t know a thing about it. And I’d want it rebuffed, unless it was £100 million. And then I think the board would step in then.”
Your an auld eejit the green brigade ain’t dafties just because they are young you dismiss them as dafties you obviously didn’t support Celtic before you were sixty.You and fans like you are the reason we’ve got such a shit board grow up these 20 whatever are all as clued up as you they just have the passion still to do something about it.
The Green Brigade bring plenty of colour , humour song and encouragement to our Celtic team . Nobody can dispute that . However despite been the life & soul of our supporters they can’t continue to operate outside the law. . In the past they frequently put on displays that they knew would cause the club fines by UEFA . They made it easy fot the UEFA observer, very often ex Linfield bigot to report us & cause a fine . In recent seasons especially since the club created a standing area & allocated part of it to GB there has been serious overcrowding in GB standing area section. This is bought about at least in part by GB members allowing others to re use their passes . GB are fully aware that Celtic are never treated leniently like the h.ns , and both Glasgow City Council & UEFA could close or partially close stadium because of this . If fans obtained serious injury because of overcrowding + flare, then Celtic in’s wouldn’t cover and club could be out millions .
We need GB & club to sit down together & hammer out a deal , that will settle this permanently
