It's Celtic for me. I used to go to a fair few games as a younger man, now I live in Australia it's a bit far to go  perhaps someday I'll get the chance again...!

Another Jungle Jim here. My Dad grew up in an East End tenement overlooking Parkhead.

Who are the other 2 Rangers fans who voted but didnt post?
or would you rather wait for sunday's result before you choose whether or not to admit it? 
It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom -- for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself.

Not really an issue, the old man was outnumbered!

The memorial is a great thing and has put Contalmaison on the WW1 battlefield map. It is regularly visited by football fans who often leave scarfs by the memorial, very fitting. Its not just a Hearts memorial though many hibs, falkirk and Raith Rovers players and fans joined too.
IIRC all the Heart fans who joined up at outset and saw the war through got lifetime season tickets

Pronunciation of Celtic
How is it that when it comes to football it's Seltic but otherwise Keltic ?

It's likely to have been a "language barrier" word... as in both Scots and English a "c" followed by an "e" (or any vowel) is likely to be pronounced with an "s" sound.
It may also have been kept to differentiate between the original Celts and their football team.
It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom -- for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself.
