The manager is constantly criticized even though he's constantly told his pool of players are not good enough, we've got Rangers fans booing the Celtic players in the squad, Celtic fans refusing to cheer because the winning goal was scored by a Rangers player and our media spending more time bemoaning Fletcher's missed penalty than celebrating the fact we won the game!
and anyone that dare have the audacity to still have hope that we just might qualify is sneered and laughed at!
Sometimes it feels like we might as well stick Three Lions on the badge and have done with it
Why bother with internationals

Well I understand your point, I just thought the use of inverted commas around the word, fan was to try and say something about our supporters. I agree, everyone is entitled to boo.

He is a very good holding midfielder. Celtic signed him when he was an attacking midfielder but he has shown where his true strength lies. Get behind your country people.

scott brown has went backwards since he joined celtic, he was an exciting talent with bags of potential at hibs. between strachan and mowbry they have turned the boy into a heedless chicken who struggles to complete a 5 yard pass not to mention the amount of stupid fouls he gives away and bookings. and he is your captain

Not the biggest fan of Brown, but:
Smith, McLeish, Burley, Levein, Strachan, Mowbray and Lennon all seem to see something I do not.

I remember Scotland v Norn Iron in the 1990s, when John Collins, still at Celtic at that point, was getting booed from both sets of fans.
Says it all, really.

I'm not sure I believe that, to be honest.

I think that's nonsense.
Although I have stood in front of guys at Hampden who have cheered every player bar Celtic players and vice versa which is all very petty.
Having said that, I remember being in Dortmund and Gavin Rae did something good and I said something along the lines of "well done Rae you dirty Dee bassa".

"The manager is a bit of a dud,the guy is completely out of his depth as Scotland manager and would be more suited as a pundit with BBC and wee Pat Nevin"
Who would you recommend instead?

Yeah that's definitely true - Scotland fans always boo Celtic players.
In your imaginary world, where everyone hates Celtic, including Celtic fans.
