Celtic v VfB Stuttgart – Martin O’Neill’s 1000th game milestone

The Celtic manager started his pre-match media conference today speaking about this milestone as he discussed the tough challenge Celtic faces. Martin also talks about the importance of the Celtic support and stated that the fans behind the goal at Rugby Park at the weekend played a significant role in the team’s second half fight-back from 2-0 down to win the match.

The Celtic Fans Collective were meeting Celtic this afternoon and we will report on the outcome after 8pm this evening. In the meantime here’s everything that Martin O’Neill had to say to the mainstream broadcast media this afternoon with The Celtic Star and other participating fan media sites still shamefully banned for censorship reasons by the Celtic Board.

Hopefully all the bans will be lifted immediately, especially to allow the stadium to be at capacity tomorrow evening in a match where Celtic will need any and every advantage we can get.
