That undoubtedly has a lot to do with it Dos but the fact remains, Celtic's worldwide appeal, especially in America, is down to their Irish connections.

Many teams have won the European cup but I doubt Notts Forest or Aston Villa have anywhere near the following Celtic has worldwide.

Artur - Celtic have a global fanbase, that has nothing to do with anything else politcal or otherwise as has been shown by some comments from your fellow fans on here. Celtic are not more than a club, if you can tell me what else they are I will gladly stand corrected.

Keny - Unfortunately the standing thing is something that the authorities come down hard on in this country and I know Celtic have had issues with this. I read today that they are forwarding a motion to the spl to reintroduce terracing sections. However whilst some people might think its just people standing they dont realise the implications it has on other fans. One of my relatives had to give up going to away games as they are simply unable to stand for 90 mins during a game and were unable to see any of it. From a health and safety perspective all seater stadiums are not designed for people standing, so although I agree with the principle of fans standing its not practical right now.

i think it would be good to have the option to be honest mate, appreciate that soe people cant or dont want to stand for 90 minutes, but to have the option would be good

Thats what I read Celtic are pushing. Apparently terracing is not illegal in Scotland it was just a rule set up when the spl formed. Therefore in order to introduce sections back into the grounds it would only take 8 out of 12 teams to agree to it, so its possible. I would like to see it as well because it generates a good atmosphere. It also means those who want to sit and those who want to stand can do so in peace without annoying one another.

Do you actually believe the cr@p you write. Celtic are a football club no more no less. You state they are a Hub for the Irish
Catholic community in Scotland.

a) Do you have evidence of this?
b) Most of the Iriish/Scottish Catholics outwith the Central Belt
support other clubs or have no interest in football.

Sadly although you will vehemently deny it people with your
extreme views on both sides perpetuate all that is wrong in supporting Celtic and Rangers.

First of all, I didn't use the word Catholic, only Irish

To answer your other point, yes I do have evidence of this.

Show us then, Artur.
