    No, we are far from having the biggest support in the world as clubs like Man Utd, Madrid, Barca etc etc are stealing all the spotlight. As for the best fans, my answer would be yes. Everybody at this club is passionate wether they are from Glasgow or as far as Denmark (in orthodox celts case). Europe nights at Paradise are amazing, however, i think everyone would agree league games could have better atmosphere.

    Who cares? the argument is boring and a bit of a * measuring contest. We support Celtic therefore to us we are the biggest and best club in the world and that's all that matters.

    No offence taken.

    You don't realise how many people support clubs just because of worldwide reputation and success. They reject other clubs instantly if they aren't that successful as Man. United, Real etc.

    As for Barca, I agree that they are club similar to us, based on culture and tradition, but they have fans like the ones I mentioned above. They support them just because of Messi, Henry, Eto'o and because of their constant victories over weeker rivals with about 5:0 each.

    Celtic's media coverage outside Scotland is *. It really sucks. If there wasn't TicTalk, I don't know how would I catch up with our games. Now taht Setanta's off air, hopefully their successors will expand their coverage on international level.

    was in south africa for a good few years.......and found alot of people supporting
    man u ....i had a good discussion whith a man u fan out there a while ago and
    he said that about 80% of fans never been in manchester................now if
    Bradford were in the top 4 and been as successful as the mighty man ure
    i think they would have a big fan base aswell ............

    my point is, we are a big club, global supporters clubs all over, massive fan base
    and in the tiny SPL........make a swap to the EPL (which will never happen)
    we would be the biggest club in the world.............simple:icon_mrgreen:

    It always amuses me when it's forever Man U Barca Real etc when talking about largest support, when teams like Flamengo for example are supported by 50 million plus in Brazil alone,just athought.I dont think we have the biggest but i do think we have the best.
