    Im 21 guys and I can see it happening. There anti-football will start to fail more and more. They will keep getting managers like fat sally and fail. We should run away with it this year. Keep the faith lads this will happen!!

    * them and there titles anyone with any football knowledge knows that we are and always will be above them in every other department.

    In our history we have went out and beaten the best Europe had to throw at us our list of legendary players is countless our titles although they have 12 more is still something to be more than proud of.

    Some differences...

    1967 European Cup Winners with 11 men born in and within 30 miles of Glasgow becoming the first British side to win the cup and only us and Barcelona have ever won a Quadruple and we did it all by playing total football I think it was Jinky that said "Like the Dutch but speeded up"

    Huns 1972 Cup Winners Cup

    They won a cup that no longer exists also won by Aberdeen.


    Seville 90,000 Celtic fans turned Seville green and white and had an absolute party on there way knocking out top quality teams including Liverpool again playing proper football.


    Manchester... Lionel Messi put it best "Anti-Football" and that's how they got there yeah fair enough they took over Manchester but i think we all know what happened that night, or was it those pesky "Chelsea Hooligans" ?

    Long story short they can stick there titles and there disneyland cup right up there arses.

    We will catch them and then surpass them, however their claim of being 12 titles ahead of us can be challenged. With Rangers being formed in 1873 and Celtic formed in 1888 it means we are effectively 15 years younger than Rangers, so their 12 title lead really doesn't matter given the number of years between both clubs.

    As it was pointed out by fellow Celtic supporters in earlier posts, One European Cup win outranks 54 Scottish League titles !!!

    Not too bothered tbh. I always want to win the title but having won the most overall doesn't win you any prizes, just bragging rights. At the end of the day both teams will always win titles but only one of us have won the big one. They have their 54 but we have '67. ;-)

    I can see it happen in the next 15-20 years. Even if they are still in existance, we shall surpass their league "acheivements".

    We had the chance.

    Had we won 4IAR we'd have gone on to win about 10-15 titles in a row.

    Loving those Stats above!!!

    I think if we remain in the SPL we will shorten that gap big time in the next 5-10 years. However I do believe we will end up in the championship/premiership in the next couple of decades.

    I'm equally ambivalent to their ramblings.

    By the way, there's more chance of me doing cartwheels on the moon than them winning the champions league!

    They were founded 15 yrs before us and we were pish when the Kelly,s and White,s were ruining our club in the 90,s. When Whyte ruins them for the next 10 yrs we,ll catch up.
