They can get fucked.
I don't care how involved the club appear to, to let your own fans be charged nearly 50 quid for a friendly is a liberty.
Absolute joke.

The same club who have absolutely no right to be top 4 let alone top 6 financially but are building a brand new £800m stadium? Wind your neck in mate.
And I seem to remember even at the time the attendances were pretty awful?
And they tried to justify the prices with the fact that if you bought a ticket to see us play Barcelona you could also watch Celtic vs Al Ahly
Just checked, they got 57,932 so yep quite shit really.
Considering that was support from 4 teams (remember they kind of divided the stadium in quarter) - Barca had quite a few tourist fans as you imagine. Al Ahly no more than a few hundred, and Celtic not that impressive (considering they normally reckon to take a few billion to this sort of thing). Would reckon we were 30,000 at most.
I suppose, my point was that they where charging silly money for this pre-season nonsense well before this season. It's nothing new.
For alot of casual fans, or perhaps those not based in the uk or those that don't have the capacity to get to home or away games its an opportunity to see the team run out.
Yeah, like anyone would have given a fuck about that even if had been a competative game!
All it meant is that a large portion of Celtic fans stayed behind and booed every touch we made for some fucking reason?!

Never heard that about Ajax and Rangers?? Would have guessed with Feyenoord and Chelsea being close, Ajax would not get along with Rangers.A lot of the more political Celtic fans like Barcelona because of the link to Catalan nationalism. There's also the fact that we've got our Jewish connection with Ajax, who's fans are more in line with Rangers.
Basically these twats only need the slightest excuse.

Celtic also hate/dislike us purely because we're an English team I think. Plus we love Gazza.

Of course, I forgot the whole Palestinian thing.And seem to have decided that they are football's voice of the oppressed Palestinian people. They probably see us as evil Zionist scum.
Not that they're anti-semitic in any way of course, oh no.
I've got a job for Rachel RileyAs long as Rachel Riley is involved, I'll let you off for this
THST have issued a statement saying the pricing strategy for this match has come from the events company hosting game. Nothing to do with the club.
I used to quite like going to friendlys, not these types mind, Norwich away was always pleasant.
The O,s away was good as it was local, we all thought we were watching a world beater in Dos Santos hahahaha,
