    Entitled to believe what he wants. Just find it rich he pipes up in such a manner now after playing for us for a decade and becoming a millionaire.

    He's well aware of the politics of the club.

    Plenty Israeli’s know the history and are embarrassed by their actions over the last 50 odd years. Bitton can away and take a flying * at himself. As I said, he was an IDF loving rat when he played here, and he is so now. We came out in mass support of Palestine when we played Hapoel Beer Sheva. Where was the * then piping up? He is a *.

    Politics of the club or politics of some fans of the club?

    Was never better than an average player. Won't go down in the annals of our history. I was never a fan of his for football reasons. His politics don't interest me.

    The videos I’ve seen today from the Palestinian side are * horrific. However, I support the normal Palestinian people, not Hamas. Israel have been doing the same for 5 decades.

    I actually started liking him again before he left but he can take a * to himself the Zionist rat. He’d be * all without Celtic.

    That’s bullshit.

    When you’ve got our legends accepting MBE honours and most fans voting Unionist Labour for years etc it’s just stupid to suggest that we’re all the same when it comes to politics.

    A lot of our older support are conservative Catholics and never signed up for all the rainbow stuff either.

    I don't think many Israeli players will come here now. Abada will be under a lot of pressure to say something as well no doubt.

    Aye. Agree it is stupid to say we are all the same. However the particular post I responded to was obviously a reaction to try and marginalise the support that do appreciate why we were founded.

    Granted probably the latter.

    You know what I mean anyway. He knows there's a large section of rhe support who've shown this kind of protest before. When he was sitting in the stadium or even on the pitch.

    Then moans saying to calm down. He's smart enough to know the reactions that's gonna get when 80% of his followers are celtic supporters.

    Anyway, part of the reason I try and stay away from this stuff. It's a horrible situation with innocent people dying both sides.

    See, if he done what Abada done, where it was a very simple message to Isreal, I think the more rational fans would take a step back and realise the situation.

    For me, it's the fact Bitton has the audacity to call out the club who, since he signed, showed support and solidarity towards Palestine during multiple matches, one of which was against an Israeli club.

    All he has to do is show support to his country, and I doubt this thread would have even been bumped tbh, I get that he wasn't actually a legend or even a cult hero for us, but he's easily ruined his reputation for me with our fans.

    Aye the middle paragraph is what I mean. He posted stories whilst a player but never went to this level in terms of paragraphs of text etc.

    Now he's nowhere near Glasgow he comes out with it and then moans when a reaction is given.

    Just stupidity. Social media stupidity as per.

    He’s entitled to his views, of course - and I can see where he’s coming from - but his post aimed at Celtic fans today is a disgrace, IMHO. Who the * does he think he is? Good luck with ever been invited back to Celtic Park, *.

    He's entitled to his opinion. But has he ever pulled up his fellow pros? A lot in football will disagree with him.

    Hey Nir, if you're reading this - you can't steal people's homes, land and dignity, treat them like * and force them back into effectively an open air prison without expecting a reaction. What do think would happen?

    EDIT - having said that, I didn't realise the GB had displayed a banner at today's match. I can understand why he may be angry about that.....
