    No, I questioned your position to question if people should be supporting Celtic :56:

    Because I don’t go to games. That’s not questioning someone’s support of the club?

    Can see why you’re a mad conspiracy nut. They generally tend not to be the brightest.

    Atlanta United will need to get in the same financial ballpark as Urawa Red Diamonds if they are to prise Celtic striker Giorgos Giakoumakis to the MLS.

    The Japanese side are the club in pole position to land the Greek international £4 million deal. and the big-spending J-League outfit are close to agreeing a deal with Celtic. They have also offered the 28-year-old a double-your-money contract, which is also net, for the forward who netted the winner in Saturday's 2-0 Viaplay Cup semi-final against Kilmarnock to set up a final versus Rangers on February 26th



    American club Atlanta - who have a close connection with Premiership side Aberdeen - will need to stump up a similar financial package if they are to tempt Giakoumakis to America over Asia. It looks likely though that the 28-year-old is set to leave Parkhead after talks over a fresh contract to keep him broke down.

    I’d see that as the only basis for doing what you did.

    If a Paul the Tim type made such a statement - on the back of him traipsing across the world to follow Celtic - I’d probably say, ‘aye, fair enough’.

    But some guy sitting behind a computer screen questioning why someone supports Celtic on the basis of an opinion they hold? Nah. Get in the bin!

    This is all really strange with GG. Should be entering his prime yet he’s on the verge of moving to Japan. That doesn’t scream ambition to me and to be honest, a 28 year old who would rather money than CL football or a move to a bigger European league? You could see why he wouldn’t be Ange’s cup of tea.

    You’re now going on ignore because I had enough of wee pissants like you on here years ago.

    * thing to say to someone. Doesn't make Sean any less of a Celtic fan because he can't, at the moment, go to many games. What you said was belittling and out of order.

    Personally I think someone in the media up here is taking translation out of context and creating porkies about how much the fee is if it 3/4 million and we rejected sampdoria …. I just don’t see sampdoria not matching that figure and also don’t see Atlanta not matching that figure unles it’s that figure with add ons

    Thanks mate. Not going to lie he touched a nerve there. Not going into it too deep but I had a serious health scare a few months ago and I’ve been off work. I had to practically go without food somedays to make sure I could give my daughter a nice Christmas. Even working 40 hours a week these days is still a struggle to make ends meet, never mind being on the sick.

    Getting there mate. Had a * heart attack in October. Still not right at all. Went back to work this week (3rd time trying to go back). Went back part time though, see if I can ease myself back in over the next few weeks.

    Mate don't let people like that get you down, there's more decent people on here than people like him. You have absolutely no reason to justify anything to anyone.
    Hope your health gets better mate and you manage to get back to work.

    Edit...just seen you're back in work now. :50:

    So he can traipse around the forum denouncing people’s support of Celtic, but no one can say anything back?

    It’s bizarre behaviour. If someone wants to suggest Lyndon Dykes as a signing, then so be it - I fail to see why it should lead to them stopping supporting Celtic!

    Anybody that needs to brag about the fact they go to Celtic games is clearly for the watching.

    A * bizarre flex.

    For the record, I know several Celtic fans that watch from their house and have forgotten more about football than most people will know.

    I also know several Celtic fans who go to the majority of games who don’t know their * from their elbow with regards to the game, and are incredibly detrimental to the team in play when things aren’t going well.

    If you disagreed with what he wrote then say so, no need to come out with such a belittling statement.

    Put him on ignore last month the board's a much better place for it, he knows exactly what he's doing, talks some amount of * at people to get a reaction but always keeps himself just on the right side of bannable comments, genuinely sinister wee *.
