    If McDonald wasnt good enough to score those goals he wouldnt be the player he is now either. Forgiven but not forgotten I think.

    He can handle big SPL matches and now he's moved up a couple of levels to UCL.

    That's bullshit we live in the real world this isn't fantasy land. For a start he was 'apparently' gutted and 'apparently' close to tears. Next if he was upset at not moving to a bigger club to further his career who begrudges him that? I dont buy into this whole i'm a Celtic fan i'd never play for the other side, especially for a guy from Australia where there isn't bitterness engrained in his pysche like it is here in the west of Scotland. Lastly his true Celtic bhoy show is pathetic? how so? he now has a connection with us the fans as he's 1 of us, should he lie and say he never liked us in the first place? Lennon McGeady McManus etc etc all got away with it why should it be different for him?

    my opinion: a true celt doesn't want to join the huns. he actually wanted to join them, but motherwell refused the fee. it's pathetic because he ain't a true celt, he plays for the money, simple as that. we can go on an argue over nothing forever, but that's my opinion and I stand to that.

    :56::56::56:

    He wanted to join Rangers because Celtic hadn't showed an interest in him.

    Obviously he would want to move away from Motherwell and if a big club come in for you, you will go no matter who.

    Fair point it's your opinion i take that on board, i'm glad it's not one shared by the majority of fans. To say he isn't a true celt is kind of laughable but that's my opinion.

    Danny McGrain not a true Celt. (ranger fan)

    King Kenny not a true Celt??

    Rangers supporter as a boy tore down the posters in his room when Celtic came a calling . I'm sure he would have signed for Rangers if they wanted him. Once you pull the hoops on in my eyes you are a Celt.

    What is there to forgive? He was a professional footballer playing for motherwell against celtic and all he done was what he was being paid to do, beat the opposition whether its celtic gretna eastfife or real * madrid.

    He is now a professional footballer playing for our beloved Celtic and he is doing what he is paid to do, beat the opposition whether its motherwell gretna east fife or real * madrid and bhoy is he doing it !!!! No * moaning about him doing his job now is there??? Leave the wee man alone hes doin it for us NOW and thats what matters.

    You get my point:celt_2:

    Like many others I agree the wee guy was just doing his job and if it hadn't been him it would likely have been someone else who scored against us.....we were obviously no great shakes.

    I like him and I have a feeling that by the time he's finished we will all love him. I don't care who he supported as a boy because once he pulled on the hoops his life changed irreversibley. For such a little guy he's brave and he plays with the sort of passion and commitment that we all want to see from a true Celt.....it's even possible that he may go on to become a legendary goal scorer for us.

    He has commited himself to us and we should reciprocate.....let the love affair begin :icon_mrgreen:
