Celtic are the only Scottish club on course to survive into February in European competition.
A 2-2 draw away to Bologna means that Martin O’Neill’s side are in charge of their own destiny going into Matchday 8.
Across the city the Thursday night specialists are out. Four points from seven matches means that next week’s trip to Porto is a dead rubber.
That sort of news is uncomfortable to the elderly demographic that still rely on legacy media outlets for news.
Reo Hatate was sent off against Bologna. A brain fart according to the Daily Record.
After seven matches against weighted opponents the 2012 Ibrox Tribute Act are out. Eliminated. But that is down to results elsewhere, nothing to do with taking four points from seven matches according to Radio Clyde.

CELTIC- THE ALTERNATIVE MEDIA
Fortunately fan media and social media can provide balance. An alternative to the established view.
The Record have had a very tough week.
During Thursday they were reporting on pitched battles involving Celtic fans in Bologna. Details of arrests and charges seem thin on the ground.
There are also shock horror reports of two drunk men late in the night in Bolgna.
One guy that paid his way to be there signed off by calling another guy a shi**bag. The other guy was on a corporate jolly, picking up £17,000 a week and claiming expenses for his excess vino.
Daily circulation of the Record fell to 37,145 during December, it will be around 30,000 by the end of this year.
With so many podcasts around Radio Clyde is taking a hit. Super Scoreboard is only essential listening for a certain demographic. Almost certainly the Daily Record’s dwindling Army of Readers.
Meanwhile fan media is thriving, there is a huge audience out there for truth and balance. While legacy outlets continue to attack all areas of the Celtic support.
It’s a case of fan media versus fanny media, and it’s no contest.
Like that comment Tony B , Fanny with a Capital Letter .
Spewing that we can still go through
Huns got more praise for going out , 1 win in 7 games never mentioned
Daily Record etc have awarded them double winners of the Coefficient & Momentum cups
The daily Record had 10 man Celtic for over an hour ..being ‘ battered ‘ yet were leading 2 – 0 at half time ! Battered ! This from the posse picked by our board to get first dibs on juicy tales ! That rag tabloid and it’s army of ‘ sport scoops ‘ cannot be trusted with any piece of information as they will always look for the negatives and adverse angles . Kind of like the guy who claims to be your pal on the 5 a sides team on a Friday night , then pisses all over you when taking a shower afterwards ?
Daily ‘retard’ Record – for retard eyes only a- are PATHOLOGICAL LIARS !
Fact is, you score one goal more than your oponnents, you’ll win everything there is to win over a season. Fact is, you score the same ammount of goals as your oponnent, you’ll both get one point each. Fact is, all you need is to score one goal for a point if your oponnent has scored one more goal than you.
Scummy football for scummy fans.
Scummy!
