SEE YOU! A brand spanking new modern fitba thread 2020/21

This season is dogshit.
NO-ONE cares.

Celtic could play Liverpool and it would probably be a 5-5 draw.
Football has descended, or possibly evolved, into everybody's Monday night kick-about with their mates where you win 5-1 one week and they beat you 6-0 the next.


Nothing matters anymore.

Forget it.

 

Theres something to that, I feel

 

Sellik's new (much needed) left back unveiled at the literal 11th hour. For the mens team, im assured.



This is what peak performance looks like, baby. Third time lucky in finding the new KT, i can tell

 

Dennistoun in ye olde east end named 8th coolest neighbpurhood on earth by huffington post behind neighbourhoods in berlin, melbourne, nyc, tokyo, barcelona & hong kong. Earlier this year Time Out named Govanhill on the southside among the coolest (more justified). And last year The Times named finnieston in the west the coolest neighbourhood in the UK. The take home? Jaded, transient metropolitan dipshits pure luuuuuv Glasgow right now, its really trending. We're at the perfect intersection point of offering independent lgqtxyz bookshops, yiddish anarchist coffee shops (not even making that up) and the frission of a genuine stabbing-risk. Catch us while we're hot.

 

They've no imagination. That's their problem. They can't make or do anything. They can't find or fashion their own rewarding niche so they parasite somebody else's. Ever notice the relentless desire for retro stuff? Retro posters. Retro t shirts. Retro art decor. Retro lampshades, lighting fixtures etc. If you said to some guy in 1909 that a basic poster advertising his wares would be 2020s most sought after must-have he'd have said you were mad as fuck. But there you have it. Come sit in my cafe and stare at a fucking single speed bicycle hanging on a wall adjacent to some poster for Le Race Du Vitesse Paris--Marseille 1929 poster. Order a coffee. Have a pastry. Maybe the Wehrmacht will roll up in their Sdkfz 222 and complete the look. Non regrette rien. £7.50. Thanks mate. Oh and wheres your mask?

 

I like retro stuff myself tbh so I cant bring much fire to that. I was in the old bairds bar next to the barrowlands on saturday - used to be the towns most famous celtic bar, now a 'defurbished' and distressed place to buy artisan fare you stick in your gub and class up the sewage with. At the table behind was an auld, auld yin who'd been brought by his two daughters to visit his old haunt. His confusion was pretty poignant. 'Is that where the bar wiz, aye? Whits that staircase that leads into the ceiling fur? I hink the bands used tae play under there. Hows there nae plaster on that bit ae the wall? Aye i hink that bit where the bar is noo is where i met johnny doyle...aye thats right da. You've still goat that picture, dont ye?''.

Tbh all i was thinking was 'this interior designer really earned his crust on this one, nice job. The distressed/faux industrial thing jumped the shark 5 years ago but you've pulled this one off'.

 

What I mean is their lust for the retro is disingenuous. They despise the era the stuff came from and the values those eras espouse. But they love the product of that era , of those values.

They aren't sincere in that regard.

 

I think you should open your own pub.

 

Man, i wish. Its ~100k just for a yearly booze licence before you do anything else

 

Call the place "If it's not Scottish IT'S CRAP!!!" and see if Mike Myers will help fund you.

 

Call it "Uncle Joe McBidens".

Big sign up outside that says "You ain't Scottish if you ain't drunk".

 

I could see a niche for a rab c Nesbitt bar, the artwork all painted directly on the walls fresco style. Rab in spain with neon board shorts, rab nursing a can of skol in the gutter, rab walking through a graveyard dragging a car exhaust. A painting of a big pink elephant. Maybe some inspirational quotes: i tell you, ahm glad ive bought a new pair of shoes, because sometimes its a privilege to walk in this world. Painting of some old stained tennis shoes hanging from a telephone wire.

 

Foooookin' 'ell

 

White Man scores shock victory over Black Man in the 2020 Victim Olympics

USL player banned for homophobic slur

 

Fucking sad isn't it.

We got no fans in the grounds, weirdo results left and right, a total disruption of OUR THING and this is where we are at.

Knees and Bans.

FFS.

 

Well, it is.

It is this thing of ours.

They didn't even make their TV payments.

Liverpool ended a 30 year wait and ended it in style and there was nobody there to see it.

Ruined....what should have been a seismic event was ruined.

Ruined by a shower of violent thugs whose name won't even get called out by our so-called Leaders.

 

Next weeks home fixtures

Rangers
AC Milan

Grrrrrrrr

 

BIG TIME

 

FC Natters currently locked into mortal combat with Union Innsbruck.

3-3 after 87 minutes.

Winner plays Grasshopper Lutz in the final.

 

FC NATTERS HAVE MADE THE BREAKTHROUGH!!!!

 

F'n hell

West Ham 'against Big Picture plans'

 

I think West Ham are wrong here but Karen Brady and David Gold and Commissar Sullivan ain't never made a right decision their whole fucking lives that didn't involve them lining their own pockets to somebody elses detriment. Think the 3rd party arrangement that brought Tevez and Mash to England which got Sheffield United relegated. Bit rich later on to be shiting about "self interests". United stayed out of the Big Time for 12 years after that.

 

Ronaldo tests positive.

The rest of the Portuguese team has tested negative meaning that it might be a false positive.

 

Celtic positive tests

Before international break 0
After international break 4

So far

 

Nations League is already pretty useless. To play a triple header of international matches for the NL and friendlies during a pandemic is plain stupid and reckless.

 

What if you invite an even mix of hardcore Gers and Celtic supporters to your flat. Stream the game and reaction.

 

THATS ILLEGAL!

 

I'm guessing possible COVID transmission would be the least of the problems.
