    Did I miss the vote where we all sat around a table and voted upon a silence?

    Most players only worry about their financial package, us having any sort of protest will make zero difference on any potential signing.

    You could be correct but we'll never know.

    One thing is certain though and that is one thing the board most likely hope for now is that the fans will get divided and that will happen eith this bad call.

    Wish the ones voting went for as someone said above full on * mayhem with thousands of pyros singing sack the board for 90 mins.

    Would be extremely powerful and it would also cost Celtic money.

    I don't think pointing out the downside of the silence is the same as "having a go".
    I think we all accept that it would be better to be right behind the team from the off, however we need to do something, even if it will have an adverse effect on the players.

    But we have to strike a balance between maximum impact and minimum adverse effect.
    To me 29 minutes is way out of balance.

    I guess, they can assess what action works and what doesn't as we go along..

    If the Board engage and answer the, reasonable questions put, it can be suspended.

    Its important to stay united.

    Not being funny but this mob have been slapped around silly by the Huns quite a few times in the last couple of years.

    Not beating them would not be good at all. The visuals would look awful and would tell me straight away that we are not going to do anything in the Europa.

    Hopefully win comfortably.

    3yrs ago they played wasn't it? Much has changed with both clubs, it's a pish comparison, means absolutely nothing.

    We had the same comparison with Hibs, prior to the Saturday game, some were saying Hibs were * because Rangers beat them 2-0 at home, before that Hibs were blowing everybody away, it dozen't suddenly make them a bad team.

    Braga will be no pushovers, we should give them due respect, some were saying Kairat would be easy meat too, including me :giggle1:, and we know how that turned out.

    It's astonishing how misplaced confidence and unfounded arrogance still prevails - despite everything we have experienced and our results in recent years.

    Combine that with our weakened squad and lack of goals this season plus the Kairat UCL disaster - why does anyone think this will be comfortable?

    I'm hopeful, but definitely not confident.
    A tight, turgid 0-0 or 1-1 would not be a surprise.

    We do * all in the first half anyway so a silence will hardly hinder the team ffs :56::56::56:

    I can’t understate how wrong you are with that. This is the exact type of team they beat comfortably over the last 5yrs in Europe whilst we can’t win a knock out tie.

    An average team at best.

    The symbolism is of this game is off the charts. If we can’t beat them then this is the ultimate indicator that we can do absolutely nothing in Europe with the current SLT at the club.

    As you were

    We're an average team as well, just because a decent Hun team beat a better Braga on the way to the final, is of no relevance whatsoever. Also their last game went to extra time, so it was hardly easy for them.

    Is it a game we should be looking to win, yes..

    We already know we'll achieve nothing with this 'SLT' in charge.

    Only a Hun would draw comparisons if we lose to them tho.

    Carry on..
