Great advantage  for them having the game off. But really thats still no excuse for us not to win that

To show how ridiculously well other results went for us this week, I’ll just point out that, according to the excellent twitter account @footballmeetsdata our chances of finishing in the top eight increased by 10% after game week 7.
I did the predictor on the UEFA website first with us winning 1-0, then drawing and then losing 1-0. The defeat saw us finish 17th… but we still manage to go on and play Man City in the final.

Yes, it'll be like all those other Celtic away games in Europe. I'd advise anyone with a B postcode to sell up before Wednesday.
I am expecting Mel Gibson and Brendan Gleeson with facepaint and big axes, rampaging down witton lane

Its amazed me, how many friends don't want my ticket for Celtic,  as they are worried about trouble with Celtic fans.

Why do people get so worried about a couple of hours in what will almost certainly be the most heavily-policed place in the country?

Todays game eh? Not sure what you mean

Their fans were not let in the ground so of course we were kept seperate  to ours. Alot of fans were abit scared that night because of a section if their fan base and no shame in that if they are.

All it takes is a lot of celtic fans sitting in villa areas and celtic score  and then it will kick off.

Nothing happened in the legia game apart from a few idiots threw some plastic bottles of mayonnaise at the Holte End.
Don’t think theres any point in musing on it potentially kicking off inside the ground.

Given most Celtic fans will be not even in the ground I'd expect more trouble in town or surrounding areas .
You predicted trouble at the Blues v Rangers game in the summer. Thankfully, there was the square root of f.a. Give it a break.

Good mate , ST holder at Celtic . Initially when drawn he was predicting 20k travelling down . In peace . Now he's saying he doesn't know how many but all he says is they have some bars lined up in Digbeth.
There'll be enough local Celtic to fill the bars , how many travel without tickets no idea but I doubt 20k very much .

I meant 'the' game and their fans weren't not let in - they refused.
