[Archived] Celtic Parcel Bombs

[rebelmswar]

Just heard this from a friend, is it true?

Bombs being mailed to Celtic fans?

[Blackburn Ravers]

yes mate, one to Neil Lennon and think another 2 parcels sent to Celtic supporters, Think they were MP`s that were sent the bombs, they got intercepted at Royal Mail though luckily enough

[brian_gallagher85]

Correct the other one was sent to Celtics lawyer. The senders are the scum of the earth.

[imy9]

Sick, really sick.

I hope no one gets any ideas

[AndyNeil]

Celtic and Rangers are as bad as each other - no time for either of them.

Agreed, hope they never manage to join the English leagues

That's exactly what I thought as soon as I heard about this.

There is dislike and then there is idiotic hate.

Our most delusional fan is nowhere near that level of idiocy.

It will never happen..

[Majiball]

British league cup would be good though.

[92er]

I have heard on the radio that a number of young players in Scotland have been sacked or severely warned for comments written on Facebook etc.

I heard about it earlier, personally I think it would be great. Say hi to St Andrews for us next time your near mate and thanks for the link.

That's the way the Radio news item came over.

[Guest linganzi]

Terrible stuff, the religion v football issue is archaic and absurd.

[onlyoneDuff]

Linganzi...great going, two idiotic posts in the span of 30 minutes...lay off the cider

[brian_gallagher85]

Or better yet lay off the boards!

[Mattyblue]

To be fair it isn't just 'religion', most of them won't have seen a church for 30 years.

Politics, history, national identity all comes into it.

Absolutely ridiculous that it is dragged up at every game of football though.

About the bombs 92er?

Yes. This,

Youth-team players at St Mirren, Clyde and Motherwell are under investigation from their clubs after alleged remarks made about Lennon on social network sites. In one case, the 16-year-old Motherwell player Dean McLean is alleged to have written on his Twitter site: "Bombs sent in the post to neil Lennon £hilarious."

from today's Guardian, shows how deeply embedded the factions are.

When visiting a pal in Glasgow one weekend a couple of seasons ago, we went to a game at Ibrox - the pre-match atmosphere was the most scary I've ever experienced in 50+ years of watching games. Mind you, the only time I've been to Parkhead, I was glad to be in the body of the Rovers' fans.

If the TV companies want it, it will happen.

TV companies are not interested in showing Wigan, Bolton, and probably Blackburn when they can show full stadia.

You have to remember that while there is a totally unacceptable part to both Celtic's and Rangers Support. Their fan base is massive and that all the TV companies and money men care about.

They are the only reason anyone watches the SPL, they also bring in something crazy like 80% of the sponsorship of the SPL.

Personally I think it would be great if they left the SPL as they operate in a completely different financial world to the rest of the Scottish game.

[MeanGreenMachine]

I wish both Celtic and Rangers disappeared off the face of the earth.

[Mc Love]

Hear Hear!

Unless 14 out of 20 Premier League clubs want it, it won't happen.

And I can see far more than six Premier League clubs voting against something which would be a threat to their own fortunes.
