"You can take the bear out the wild, but you cant take the wild out of the bear" - Real life rangers fan on the radio 😂😂😂

[monti]

What's particularly impressive is we are also doing well in the Champions league, the players have been great

[MartyMcK]

Big Martin from Rangers Rabble watching this with tears of rage running down his face, hugging a bag of Greggs.

[richiejbhoy]

One thing I really like about this channel is the educated approach to abusing Rangers, their fans, and beliefs.

[TarantulaTom]

The best opening 12 minutes to a podcast I've ever heard! 🤣
What a time to be a Celtic fan 😍😂🧟‍♂️🇮🇪🍀

[eddiemarzella]

Absolutely one of the best celtic podcasts !
Love it ! Happy new year bhoys !

[dvp]

Nothing better is there.? Rangers are rallying, expectations is growing, big Phil is turning it around . Then Bosh, bang, wallop, on their arse once more . Watching their podcasts just now is just paradise. It’s like the greatest comedy show ever, hilarious, combined with such smug satisfaction. Dead rubber if the unthinkable happens 😂

Apparently, an early difficulty for Engels - along with trying to settle in generally - is having been required to play a number of (unfamiliar) midfield roles.

[geoffbuckley]

Scales started his career as a forward . Thats why I think he is better getting the ball up the pitch and linking up with the forward line .

[joemurray]

I can't wait for the Celtic v Igamane game on the 2nd.

[Jack-fqp]

We've got no pressure on us now so I hope the Bhoys can raise their game on Thursday. If we get on the front foot & play as we can, it'll be a lovely day..🍀

Love this channel, I absolutely love Cal Mac but I think our midfield looked more dynamic, passing was faster and more direct. I fully appreciate that St Johnstone are not a team you want to judge that situation but sometimes Cal smothers the space, he gets too close to the centre halves, lingers in the midfield taking up valuable space. I would love to know out of all Cals possession and passing, how much was left or right or back?

There is no denying that he has been brilliant for us but is he maybe at a crossroads of the style he plays vs the style we want to play.

Tav's injured allegedly, got a picture of Maeda on his sick line.😂😂

[JohnCl]

Young guy comes to Celtic, Jamie, 5000 miles from home, completely different culture and playing style and a step up to a massive club. He WILL make it, he has a lot to learn but will be a player for us next season. Get off Yang’s back.

[MilesOnTheCorner]

I like to imagine you guys are all in different rooms of the same house when recording these.

Jamie in the bedroom, Melly in the garage, Stephen in the bathroom.

[june-babyjane]

Happy New Year guys, as always, love the channel 💚💚🍀

[RiverSeafree]

Even though it was against STJ, which made Yang look like a pler I think Bernardo Engels and Valle put in a real good performance. It was nice to see Kyogo score again, too.

The ideology of Rangers is falling apart, their football club is falling apart and their supporters are falling apart. Theyre literally incapable of looking inwards, analyse and correct themselves and im so here for it

[WilliamGee-nz]

Happy new year lads 💚what a great podcast absolutely in tears with laughter 😂
