Brendan Rodgers wanted a new pitch to improve the standard of football at Celtic Park
But the grass has looked in poor condition over the last few months, with Rodgers confirming there is an ongoing problem.
He said: "There’s a disease in the surface so it's unfortunate really.

"We have a great team of ground staff and the guys are working very hard to make that right."

 

[grascots]

Setting fire to the ground would seem to be a good solution.

 

[isawthat]

Celtic Football Club, diseased from top to bottom, nothing ever changes.

Shite doesn’t burn mate

 

[del68]

Maybe they should let the grass grow a bit more.

 

[BroomloanWATP]

Caused by the decades of filth swept under the pitch no doubt.

 

[Hairybear]

There couldn't be any more room under their carpet or lockers obviously.

 

[BandOfBrothers]

Covered in fans drool.

Yip it is called "The Players"

 

[bigbluenose]

It's all the artificial light the grass is getting

 

[BobbyShearer]

Following in the footsteps of Big Jock.

No grassing.

 

[Recoba]

More excuses coming out now for when they slip up at home and the surface wasn't slick enough

It did look bad from the highlights the other night though.

 

[Blackpool Dave]

Yip it is called "The Players"

And there fans

 

[FortressVillage]

It's potato blight

Think he meant " There is a disease UNDER the surface
Don't worry Brenda that disease is gonna be sorted in the next few weeks

 

[Whitecarlos]

Hope the bulbs go on their new lights too and make their summer spending on upgraded equipment a complete east of time.

 

[aldo78]

Watching the Scottish Cup highlights on Sat that is the first time I have seen the pitch since the Sept game, it really is in a poor state.

 

[Awrawans]

It's potato blight

They should sign maris piper.

 

[Awrawans]

The thumbs barber will sort them out!

 

[MSF]

Someone on here said it had algre

 

[Terry Tibbs]

The pitch is blinded by the light show.

 

[Awrawans]

Reap what you sow.Pre pubescent.

 

[Wishbone]

They dont wait for the grass to grow before they play on the pitch

 

[a_weir]

Well Celtic have always had a problematic relationship with grassroots football.

 

[Awrawans]

jimmy bells exhaust will be getting the blame here.

 

[Jimmy the Gent]

Could they be any more repugnant?

Their stadium is a shit tip, their fans are smelly bastards, the players are fuckin ugly, now the place is confirmed as being diseased.

Just kill it with fire.

 

[Dooodooodrooo]

It's more than the pitch that's diseased.

 

[Awrawans]

Theres too much pish on it regular.

 

[Sam English]

The disease being mutants in green and grey shirts

 

[giogaddi]

It's all the secrets bulging out from underneath it.

 

[Walrus]

Due to everything they sweep under the carpet, its now spreading to the pitch, hell mend them

 

[Cooper_11]

From top to bottom, it’s a toxic institution. It doesn’t surprise me that even the grass is diseased.

 

[Lord Summerisle]

Ah well, they’ve got their excuse for when we humble them on their own potato patch in March.

 

[Superrangers]

How can this be so when they pile £400m worth of shite on it every other week?

 

[Paulie Walnuts]

That explains what happened to Forrest's neck then...

 

[Monty_greenock34]

Step up Craig Levein........ Nows your time to shine craigy hahaha

 

[eastneuk56]

Destroyed by the anguish of young men and boys dreams, of having recognition and dreams of being football players, dreams of making their parents and siblings proud, only to have them destroyed by people in trust people in hassocks pretending to be holy. Being lied to ,having parents who believed the club has to be protected at the expense of all else. Even the grass has had enough.

 

[The_Irrepressibles]

Setting fire to the ground would seem to be a good solution.

Disco inferno

 

[sw26]

A heavy concentration of BO in one place will do that to grass.

Another personal hygiene reminder letter beckons.

 

[Number 4]

This guy is working his ticket.

You can’t imagine the well drilled PR machine will be happy with this terminology.

He won’t be here for very long IMO. He launched a very public, and very obvious appeal for funds early Jan, and has f.uck all so far.

They are crumbling, and he is not going to be hanging around for 55.

Good one from the Sun comments section -

Why do you wither, green grass?
. . . Is it coz of what's hidden below?
Withering grass, . . .
the cops don't need to know!

 

[the_baron]

Thankfully they haven't realised yet that Jimmy Bell, before the game against them at Celtic Park was digging up small areas of their pitch and patching them with squares of turf containing the plant pathogenic fungus Rhizoctonia solani.

Jimmy knew that the fungal pathogens in the soil would spread and infect the turf across the rest of the pitch like wildfire and the Celtic groundstaff would only be able to identify the problem when it was too late to do anything about it.

Napalm for me.
Only when full though.

 

[Arminius]

Slash and burn

Heard this too mate.

 

[the_baron]

Heard this too mate.

It's crazy how long people in Scottish Football have believed that Jimmy Bell is simply a kit man, he's been helping us get the edge over our opponents with a wide array of devious schemes and ploys for years now. Tampering with Celtic's pre match drinks and snacks before the last old firm game was only the tip of the ice berg.

[minder]

In Scotland the grass is either too long or diseased for poor Brenda.Weird thing is they got to play on a perfect surface last month and didn't even get a kick at the ball

 

[Mr.Spock]

I think it might be Agent Orange at work.
