    if you ask that question then YOU would appear to have a short memory.

    you tell me a game where he didn't perform, ...yup doesn't exist.

    Collins was a great player oozed class on the pitch , always comes across well in any interview he does , so he went to Monaco wouldnt you ,not without giving great service to us , always remember goal he scored away to Aberdeen when we were 2 down when we went on to win stunner:celt_2:

    His contract had finished and he joined Monaco for a shitload of money and a superb lifestyle. Oh what a * !!! I wouldnt fancy doing that :52:

    He didnt have control over knocking back bids i think that was maybe the Hibs board who decide things like that and as a professional who was managing another team against us what would you want him to do?? Cheat and drop half of his team to let us win?? Oh what a * he must be .....:icon_mrgreen:

    He played magnificently for us through lean years. All your gripes are so minor they don't deserve the energy needed for me to respond. Can you not recognize a great Celtic player when you see one Butch?!

    Collins was an excellent midfielder for Celtic. It was just unfortunate for him that he joined the club at a time when we were in turmoil and incapable of putting up any sort of challenge to Rangers.

    he sold us a cripple for 4.4 he has been playing for us now gone 6 years and all we get out of him is he needs a jag he has no game sense at all
    he has played since 2002 and I haven't seen him have one trick.
    AND HIS SHOOTING AND PASSING ABILITY IS no existent:celt_2: we have wasted 6 years of our life trying to get this guy to learn to play for us.
    it cant go on much longer.

    So it was his fault we bought Scott Brown?? Not Strachan who bought him?? Not the Celtic board who sanctioned the offer?? Not Lennon for offering him a new deal and making him captain?? Quality stuff Butch.

    well when you find out you have bought a pig in a poke, you try and make yer self look smart, me i think they had more use out of him as the
    dressing room snitch. managements ears if you ask me. hes like a dog after about five years he starts to look, and mimic its owner :celt_2: and as you know he couldn't hit a barn door either

    Its pretty obvious you dont like Brown but you cant blame Collins for us buying him. I like your logic though, can you find out who sold us Murphy so i can go call him a * too :icon_mrgreen:

    Correct....utter * of big proportions, also was as a player when he was at Man United, turned into a vile *, remember him not getting his own way and kicked Nigel Winterburn in the head and a brawl ensued and he cowered away, in traditional Man Utd style they received a 1 point deduction and Arsenal received 3, Van Nistelrooy took over the mantle and did something similar a few years later I seem to remember.

    To be honest Ive never personally seen him at CP since he left in any form
