Zappa 0 Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 With a fully fit squad I think we could give them a good game and maybe even win it, but there would definitely be serious trouble before and after the match. It's a tough call, but I'd rather avoid them for the moment and take them on when we're stronger. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stimpy 0 Posted September 24, 2014 Author Share Posted September 24, 2014 I've always felt the trouble aspect has been well overplayed between us. You have to go back to the nineties for any trouble on the boat going across and since then a few verbals has only came about. Remember being on the tims boat (they were at home that day so they get the boat) and bears queuing up besides tim with IRA tats on for a newspaper. Even living back home during the 9iar years I never saw very much outside of a few haymakers. The worst, if I'd even call it that, I've heard happened was two years ago inside Ibrox and to this day I think the boy is a legend. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bitterness has deepened even further over the past couple of years though mate. Before the shit hit the fan for us in 2012 I remember quite a lot of trouble in my local area on the evening of Old Firm matches with pretty big street fights, stabbings and all sorts of madness. There was almost always trouble in the local pubs as well and now I think it would be even worse. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Neil Lennon stuff certainly made things much more intense, and we played them 7 times in the 2010/11 season 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim on tim. Win, lose or draw. Agree the bitterness has intensified and there will be arseholes looking for an easy target but in the main any bother will be in usual the haunts that has propensity for dafties. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I live in North Lanarkshire, so yes, there's a lot of tims. It's probably a pretty even balance in the area though and that's why there's sometimes serious trouble. The common factor is always alcohol. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zappa 0 Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Well, Celtic beat Hearts 3-0, Dundee Utd beat Dundee 1-0 and the Hamilton v Motherwell game has went to extra time at 0-0. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
