im a celtic fan and not ashamed we are only singing about an event in irish history. RIP AIDEN MACANESPIE

Would you have a minutes silence for soldiers that murdered your Mother, your little sister, your Grandad? Its the equivelent of the brits holding a minutes silence for the German army. And this is coming from me, and English lad born n bread.

They're singing a song called Aidan Macanespie which is about when the British army murdered a 16 year old boy who was on his way home from playing Gaelic football in Ireland for no reason other than the fact that he was Irish. The British army have committed countless atrocities like this in Ireland and throughout all of their colonised nations, why should Celtic fans, or any group of fans for that matter, be blindly expected to obey a minutes silence for the British army's participation in all their illegal wars and terrorist activities? Granted WW2 was a just war, but what about the Falklands, Ireland, Iraq, etc.

As I said WW2 was a just war and so was WW1 but Remembrance Day is to remember all conflicts, cant pick and choose! Fawklands, Iraq, Afghanistan and the countless other occupations Britain has either been involved in or backed financially cannot be ignored, where's there remembrance day for all the civilians who were killed in Ireland and elsewhere?

Their fucking right tho , silence for the glorious brits but deaf ears for all other victims

I watched the match live on a French feed and heard the singing exactly as the clip shows. I promise you that the clip hasn't been tampered with.

What makes everyone think it was their country the Celtic fans were supposedly disrespecting?Celtic fans are welcome from all over and have a signifcant support from Ireland.Many of these Irish fans have suffered badly at the hands of British soldiers.

REMEMBER THE 10 GOD BLESS YOU BOBBY SANDS

@A smoking ChickenFish I thought it was a snooker cue case.COYB.

Does it matter what the silence is for? As a footie fan I have witnessed many silences for fans, players and servants of other clubs and I've ALWAYS observed their silence. To observe the silence is to show respect to those who have passed away AND to show respect to those who call for the silence in the first place. I don't care if they don't agree with the minutes silence for our fallen but I do care that they disrespect those who wish to observe it. Scumbags quite frankly, they have no class

Yes that is our true colours! Why would we pay respect to the people who shot our ancestors on our land?

Well said, the Green brigade a re an embarrasment many celtic fans detest. They need to get a grip

I'm a Celtic fan but I wouldn't sing as my great grandfather who was Irish served in the middle East for britan and I would respect him and troops who keep us safe.

seamus why are you a Celtic fan then?

Has anyone maybe thought the people singing to remember their dead during the war in Ireland might have been Irish who have had loved ones killed by the Brits???

Peter Lawell is shaking his head at a racist shout made by a Falkirk fan.

Scotlands' shame right there. Sickening. Absolutey sickening.

Oh dear the greatest fans in the world are at it again. Wonder what Jock Stein would have said about this? May be wrong but I think he once confronted Celtic fans over IRA songs. Come on Celtic fans stand up against this element in your support

its funny how people make out that its the majority of celtic fans singing there, theres about twenty people at max singing. It's not that when rangers sing chant like "one piper alpha" against aberdeen is it?

Not all Celtic fans are like that.. No it's not fuckin typical.

Scottish actually. Bohs are Irish, Shamrock Rovers are Irish, Cork City are Irish but Celtic are definitely Scottish. Look into why Brother Walfrid left the club he founded.

I'm a celtic fan and thought that was disgraceful but if you listen carefully it is only like 10 people singing

Why did Sky turn off the mic at the Celtic end? Why did Sky not show the Celtic end during the minute's silence? As the meerkat says, "They were in the stadium singing a Republican song. Simples..."

The 36th Ulster took over the Schwab Redoubt on the first day of the Somme. The wankers in charge wouldn't sent in the reserve to hold it. 36th Ulster. The bravest of the brave.

Their singing a pretty appropriate song which highlights the british army at its best, shooting an innocent man in the back on his way to a Gaelic Ground.

its not from sky , this was a live feed from an online Iraq website

Sily buggers - When will they grow up

Tell the Scots in the north of ireland that too please.

im a die hard celtic fan go to all the games but my dad was in ireland fighting for britan so i was pissed of and ashamed that my team couldn't have ketp silent for a minute nun of them fought for ireland why were they singing shocking its just football :\

they are remembering a civilian shot in the back by the British army

This is actually disgusting that they would even do that. Little kids at the game and stuff and there doing that.

The 3 minutes silences were for Diana,not queen mother like i thought.The omagh silence one guy shouted at the start,he was shushed down and arrested.For 9/11 there was impeccable silence though some people entering the stadium late were singing not realising there was a minutes silence.None of these had or has a place in football.You will note,Celtic fans observed 3 minutes silences for Jim Baxter and 1 for Davie Cooper perfectly,football men.

behaviour like this is scandalous, the famine is over and I think it really is time these scumbags went 'home'

Ask youself why Lawell was shaking his head.

you say it was an accident or even a ricochet NO FUCKING WAY!!!!

One can only wonder at the sheer hypocrisy of your average bear,They spend all week telling anyone that will listen that not all Rangers fans should be castigated for the behaviour of their rioting fans in Bucharest then attempt to castigate all the Celtic fans for a few people singing outside the stadium. You couldn't make them up.

I live in Northern Ireland, not Ireland. Two different countries. Do you see?

You kill yer own fans You kill yer own fans Rangers football club You kill yer own fans. Justice for the 66

There was no minutes silence for the anniversary of Eniskillen or Omagh.The Celtic fans were silent for TWO seperate minute silences for the queen mother and observed it perfectly for 9/11.Srill,who needs facts for a midless rant..

fair play to the celtic fans. they sang a political song that shows the british forces up for what they are. every country they go to they bring trouble. shame on the celtic board and players for wearing a poppy on the shirt. take a leaf out of man utds book and don't make the players wore something they might not believe in

I apologise for some of my comments. I am just questioning the use of the poppy for modern day politics and respect the conscripts of WWI and WWII, total respect. I also question how honest the Brits are with themselves and if they respect others...the answer is no they don't. I was also stating the reasons why some find it difficult to accept silence for modern day killing machines.

fuckin dead rite it aint rememberbance for us wheres our minute silence for bloody sunday

were you at the game? if so was it inside the ground or not? i would just like to know!

I can't help but notice the same thing, I think Graham Spiers called them the 'Protestant underclass', and I think the discription is quite accurate.

it was people outside the ground that where singing,

Celtic fans say it was an accident or even a richochet.

I was just saying what I heard mate... I dont know what happened before it, cos I personally didnt hear any singing before the game, but surely they should have been silent anyway?

surely the cameras could identify those people and ban them from football for life. Absolutley disgusting behaviour and a disgrace to celtic fc.

just saw on the news that they were outside the ground

Would the Brits be silent for 1 minute for all the people killed by British soldiers? I think not, therefore, why expect Irish Celtic supporters to do likewise? I am quite impartial but like to see it from both sides.

@newburyyellowsfan ya i no , but but all us people that isnt from scotland northren ireland or wales think that the english army is england and britian and england are the same thing including some english:L and dont try deny it

Nice image Celtic fans set for their club isn't it?

did u have a minutes silenc for bobby sands MP

@IGSTaaRI ohhhhhhhh the english man is mad ooooooooo hes going to throw his tea cup at me hahahaha :L

It's true.You could barely hear the fans outside the stadium singing from inside.This clip uses mikes from outside.

RIP AIDEN MACANESPIE

The facts are that the celtic fans disrupted the minutes silence yet again, they were clearly heard singing so wether it was inside the ground or not does not matter, the point of the matter is that they could not shut their filthy mouths for one minute, how disrepectful can you get!! The fact that peter lawell was shaking his head says it all, oh and where was his poppy might I add? CELTIC - SCOTLANDS SHAME

@GunmanForTheRa Theres no such thing as the "English Army", its the british army. Scotland is part of Britain

@MrTallChap You dont think the british army has committed atrocities like that? If not the you are deluded. The politicisation of remembrance day and the poppy is the true disgrace

I watched the game on a French feed. This is exactly what happened. Sky turned off their mics.

the daily record says your wrong sky did mute the sound

celtic didnt win this game so it must have been the ref fault no doubt. plus its good to hear the so called greatest fans in the world cover themselves in glory during the minutes silence

I was there and I could only hear singing from outside the ground... the celtic fans in the ground werent doing anything... I just find it strange how they werent singing before the minutes silence. Scum

@GunmanForTheRa they still should show respect , where a whole kingdom and where all together and our army's are the same

Hahaha. As one poster said, this was singing from OUTSIDE the ground and has been amplified. There was a minutes silence INSIDE the ground that was perfectly observed. Anyone that was there (including me) will tell you that. Bu thanks for trying to deflect away from your own fans caught rioting during the week. This is like Hitler telling his next door neighbour that they're a bit noisy. :-))

i like celtic but that is just sick

The minutes silence was immpecable inside the ground....whats the problem here

The big interest in religion is the preserve of the Rangers fans.Celtic fans aren't interested in religion.

No idea,pal.Perhaps John Reid farted.

Eastend rebel, i sthis the same celtic(SCUM) fans who, when claudio reyna went to take a corner in the old firm game just after 9/11 stuck out there arms to look like plane's ?

YOU'LL NEVER WALK ALONE!

We love the Loughgall Sharpshooters. When did an IRA man ever give his victim a chance? The IRA's claim was that they were in a war. If it was a war, they should expect to get shot down by the enemy at every opportunity. The Ulstermen of the 36th Ulster Division and the Irishmen of the 10th and 16th Divisions were fighting an enemy who stood up to be counted. The IRA hid behind women and children. Difference? The first were heroes, the second murderers.

It wasn't amplified. Full stop. Apart from Sky, viewers in the rest of the world heard it coming from within the stadium. The Falkirk supporters could see them and let them booed them when the silence was over.

There was no minutes silence for the anniversary of Eniskillen or Omagh.The Celtic fans were silent for TWO seperate minute silences for the queen mother and obeserved it perfectly for 9/11.Still,who needs facts for an ignorant rant.

what song are they singing ?

@Ryan1873RFC well during the troubles it was the brits who were kicking the irish doors in and raiding houses. fair play to celtic fans !

Fuckin tremendous, UP THE RIRA

What are you talking about?You appear to have completely ignored my comment and replied to something else,silly billy.

@GunmanForTheRa The ballad of Aidan McAnespie

Why was Aidan McAnespie murdered by the British army?

Manchester United had no poppies either. What was that about?

its disgraceful on what a few supporters have done, and i condone what they have done. however when i have read some of the posts, people have commented by saying "its scotlands shame" why should it be innocent people of scotlands ""shame"",,, after all they havent done anything wrong, so there for shouldnt tar a whole country with the same brush just because of a few @rseholes. the only people that should be ashamed in this video clip are the ones that ruined the minutes silence.

Why were the camera team and production team so afraid to film those singing? By not showing them,you have just protected them.

LOL nice

aye cuz i could understand what u were saying :S

Nonsense, they were cbserving the minutes silence. You on the Buckfast at this time of day???

@Ryan1873RFC Therey werent fighting for ireland they were helping the people that were oppressing the irsh why show respect for that ..... plus rangers fans do the nazi salute thats showing real respect for the war veteran isnt it

What are they then? Tazmanian?

Yeooo!!!

this is why they will never join the premier league . they can stay the second biggest fish in a VERY small pond

exactly

funny. Video about Celtic singing during a minutes silence yet they turn it into a Rangers debate. Classy.

I was just saying that you were getting a wee bit hyper. The second paragraph wasn't aimed at you, just the world in general.

Aidan Mcanespie, was Innocent!

@TinyBlogger14 Why are the Fenians to blame? The British have treated the Scots as shite as well so why not blame the Brits instead?

@MrBaphomet666 WE AR WELL HOME

Ever thought that there might be Scottish Protestants that support Celtic?? I know a lot, in fact the majority in the North are Prods but like me arnt very interested in religion just their team, the way it should be

Have you not the guts to say. You say it was an accident or even a ricochet. But like Loughgall and Gibraltar your lies are well renoowned.

as if rangers fans have done anything sectarian

YEAH

Legends

@tomgarify Rangers are over!
