"The actual result aside as a mum of a Celtic fan who's in Amsterdam just now for the football I just hope to god no one is hurt after the final whistle. My so witnessed Ajax fans attacking innocent Celtic fans last night and also witnessed their behaviour both before and during the game here a few weeks ago. So fingers crossed no matter what the result that no one gets hurt ." | |||

"Drink had been taken.By every supporter there ? I think not lol" Attacked by plain clothes policemen is the word now. Celtic should be ashamed of the statement they have just issued given the amount of footage all over youtube today. The bottles raining down not only on the police but also on trams running through the square is inexcusable. £30 software again maybe Mr Lawwell Are we really to believe the 28 Celtic fans arrested were all victims of miscarraiges of justice? Everyone an innocent caught up in it. We even have radio callers claiming the plain clothes cops attacked the fans for no reason. | |||

"In fairness, having seen the banner unfurled by Ajax fans during the game, I'm surprised there wasn't more trouble after the match. It doesn't seem to have been reported by the match officials." Cant have it both ways now. If I am guessing you are talking about the F word then the Celtic support used to chant about being part of Paddy McCourts Fxxx Army. There is also loads of merchandising stating exactly the same thing (google it and look at images if you dont believe me) It is either offensive or not, you cannot switch on and off the offensive mode. As for banners there was FB photos of the Green Brigade outside the stadium on Tuesday with banners with a pretty direct message to the Ajax fans. Cannot have it both ways. As for post game trouble the Dutch cops keep the away support in for a min 1 hour after the game. Good idea. BTW The dutch hooligans are by a mile the worst I have ever seen in action. Crazy crazy bastards. | |||

I have no interest in football beyond the impact it makes on Scotland's reputation at home and abroad. Bits of the internet may well be littered with stuff all of us would rather not see but the vast majority of the population don't go mining the net for that stuff. What we see is the pictures brought into our homes by BBC/ STV. Each put a different emphasis on what happened, but the pictures didn't lie. | |||

Having it both ways was a general comment, not direct at you. BBC & STV are soft soaping this like the majority of the Scottish media. Take 2 mins to check out the Dutch media who have no relationships to preserve. Pictures don't lie as you say. I have seen first hand plenty of fans / foreign police situations and I can tell you 100% that the police do not start riots. Arsehole fans with too much drink are 100% to blame for starting any trouble. Be it Rangers, Celtic or Scotland there are loads of twats who travel. Plenty of innocents will get caught up. For the club to blame the cops is bonkers. The problem now is you will see revisionism of what actually happened despite the evidence. By the Barcelona game the Celtic support will be the greatest ever again with no history of trouble. Sweep Sweep is the technical term or maybe it just plain old simple denial | |||

ON their planet you are allowed to believe anything you want regardless if every body in the land and beyond say otherwise.
