    Celtic Fc ARE a Scottish club that was founded in Scotland, has its stadium in scotland, has always played in Scotland and always will (imo) and to even ASK this question is a total waste of time and i am surprised at u regi for asking it! Yes of course we have STRONG Irish connections and a LOT of our main fanbase is irish but it DOES not and indeed CANNOT change the fact that we are a Scottish Football Club.
    FFS we are from GLASGOW!!!!!!!!!
    just cos we have Irish connections doesnt mean we are * Irish:47:

    I would just like to say that my grandad was from County Cork and i see myself as a Scottish man with irish blood in my family.

    Celtic is the same as it is a 100% Scottish club with irish blood in its lineage but it is still Scottish.

    Celtic are a football club, belonging to neither country, Celtic belongs to the fans, the ones it was founded to help, the ones that helped who it was founded to help, the ones who are helped by Celtic even today.

    Interesting thread

    I see Celtic as Scottish and Irish hence the name "Celtic", based in scotland although 80 to 90% of our fans are of Irish descent which is why theres loads of tricolours at paradise. Were scottish because were based in scotland but were also Irish becasue of our roots thats why celtics fairly unique

    Dont agree with much he says but he is entertaining - its hyper, OTT, random and brilliantly not thought through. Just guessing but his views on this thread and the one about club or country are likely to get him banned again straight away:56:

    Id give him a full 24 hours till he gets banned as it will be funny at first while he vents his built up idiotioc views and then will eventually die and be banned again

    What I like most about Celtic is it's inclusive nature. That has always been there from the begining. Instead of being called Glasgow Hibernian the club was called Celtic to be all embracing.
    That is how I look at the club, that it is a (K)Celtic club which all (k)Celts be they Irish, Scots, Welsh etc can embrace and be proud of.

    Celtic is a Scottish club....period.
    If Celtic is an Irish club, were the Lisbon lions an abbaration?
    11 Scotsmen, with a Scottish manager & countless Scotsmen waiting in the wings that played at home in Scotland.
    More importantly, Celtic is an INCLUSIVE club. You don't have to be Scottish,or Irish, or Catholic. That's bullshit!
    We are the greatest club! We are for inclusivety, we are for the oppressed , the underdog.We are more than
    a football club.
    Our fans are fantastic! How we are missing them in these difficult times.
