So, how was your evening, Tighty? (The football part).

Good atmo? Fair result?

Is it true that EUFA insisted you play at "Leicester City Stadium", not King Power?

The rumours suggest the players all had a heart to heart on Sunday, any truth in that, & was it evident last night?

Palace next up, at home. No easy games, eh?

UEFA have a series of rules, pages of them

not allowed to display "King Power" anywhere so all the stadium signage needs to be changed, inside and out for each European game


not allowed to wear black armbands (death of king of Thailand)

etc etc

Schmeichel said the players called a squad meeting yes


The game itself, Copenhagen were stubborn opponents and we aren't really in great form but it was a steady enough performance

Obviously a very weak group, but only one win away from winning it

What do Arsenal do in home CL games then - it's surely impossible to hide the Emirates branding?

I guess it's because King Power "compete" with Gazprom, or some other sponsor? Maybe there is no official Champions League airline?

King Power is a duty free company, but i get your point, it could well be competing with a UEFA sponsor

While you're there, what happened on that fine Celtic got for fans waving Palestinian flags when they played an Israeli side? I think the fans raised more than the cost of the fine and sent it to Palestinian charities?
I think the reason you got fined was the 'political nature' of the event?
Well didn't Barca have lots of Catalan flags at the City game (and presumably at lots of games)? Catalan independence is a hot political potatoe in Spain. Were they fined?

Don't think Barca were charged or fined. Not 100% sure though.

Celtic were fined around 10k, and the fans raised over 100k last I saw. It's not really something I get too involved in, so sorry if the answers are a bit vague. Moenchengladbech were lighting flares at Celtic on Wednesday night, be interesting to see what happens there.

Think he was hoping for a reply from a real Celtic fan, someone like Rod Paradise.

In the end UEFA bottle it and fined Celtic 10k euro.  That will teach us not to show solidarity with oppressed people. 

In the end over £170k was raised for 2 Palestinian Charities was raised.  Things are ongoing, I am expecting deliver of badges soon in the form of "Fans Against Apartheid" which will be added to the funds raised on the Go Fund Me page,  there has also been a production of t-shirts and polo shirts. 

__________________________

13th October update - Final 24 hours for donations

I'd like to apologise for taking so long to provide an update, things have been moving along at a hectic pace since this page was launched.

In the end, Celtic FC were fined €10,000 (£8,619) by UEFA, a smaller amount than 2 years ago for the same offence. The cynic in me suggests that the publicity of this campaign played a large part in that. What started out as a fan led initiative in exposing the hypocrisy of UEFA's "no politics in football" mantra quickly spiralled into a viral, worldwide campaign which as of this morning has raised £173 495 to be split between two charities who provide crucial services to the Palestinian people.

I would like to thank everyone who has shared this page all over social media, to those who have donated no matter what the amount, public figures who have donated prizes to the campaign to raise funds and who have brought it worldwide audiences like Pink Floyds Roger Waters.

Donations will officially cease at 11pm on Friday the 14th of October(UK time) so you have a little over 24 hours to get the word out and bring in more donations.

In regards to the handover of the money, after discussing with all parties, MAP will be withdrawing all the funds (minus GFM fees) directly from the account and will distribute an equal half to Lajee.

As mentioned in my previous update representatives of Lajee have applied for Visa's to come to Glasgow to formally accept the money with a cheque handover. As with most Palestinians visas are extremely hard to obtain and we are working to resolve this as soon as possible. We are looking to organise a small ceremony outside Celtic Park before a home game in the next month or so where both MAP and Lajee will be presented with cheques outside of the stadium. Once we have final details they will be posted on this page and all relevant social media platforms and hope you will join us in celebrating this great campaign.

For now, let’s get #matchthefineforpalestine trending again and bring in as much as we can over the next 24 hours!

Yesterday was a bit more like it

Interesting team rotation that saw Vardy and Albrighton on the bench

Musa out wide and Okazaki behind Slimani

He might have stumbled on something here because Okazaki played deeper than either wide player so effectively the formation was 4-2-3-1 and it really helped

Drinkwater and King completely dominated midfield (Ledley sitting behind Cabaye and McArthur) despite theoretically being a man short because Okazaki was often in there to help

Now the trick will be to do it away from home, and produce some points there to go along with the excellent home form that has seen us a year unbeaten/23 matches at home

Tottenham away next week, so another big test, followed by Copenhagen away the midweek after.

With rotation now to the fore, it will be interesting to see who plays where

Been very impressed with this Slimani chap. Given you an extra dimension, imo.

an encouraging draw at Spurs

 Click to see full-size image.


finally playing with more stucture and solidity, coinciding with Okazaki playing support striker and dropping back to help in midfield without the ball

comedy penalty decision against us, but Huth and co aren't going to get many benefits of the doubt of course so understandable enough

Off to Copenhagen Wednesday morning. Slightly more expensive than when booked!
