Celtic haven’t won a European knockout game for 16 years

[ICA_86]

I generally don’t give a shiny shite about them, but saw this earlier on Twitter.

I had to double check and it is actually true - sensational stuff.

To be fair Rangers haven't one for for ooooooh..... 24 hours!

 

[crookie_bear]

Surely not.
This excludes qualifiers then? Which are technically KO.......Not sticking up the micks here

 

[Edweird]

They've been knocked out of Europe 16 times in 10 seasons.
That's a Scottish record

Knockout rounds after the group stages I believe.

Last one was against Blackburn in 02 according to bt sport

 

[rfc_chris_rfc]

Thats embarrassing

 

[SC81]

They beat Zenit 1-0 in 2018 in round of 32 game.

 

[Matty1904]

Its knockout home and away wins. Which was Blackburn. I don't even know when we last done it until Braga

 

[Roscoblue]

That can’t be right. Surely.

 

[albertz81]

They haven't progressed in knockout stage post qualifiers since Barcelona 2004 is the stat.

 

[Shengus Malengus]

They beat Zenit 1-0 in 2018 in round of 32 game.

I'm guessing he means they haven't won a tie.
Zenit gubbed them 3-0 in the other leg.

 

[nemessis]

They don't have the staff to support them in these games, Father Clancy, Robertson, Collum and many more.

 

[Arminius]

They've been knocked out of Europe 16 times in 10 seasons.
That's a Scottish record

Hahahaha.

That’s funny

Qualifiers technically not europe (yet)

 

[Brizblue]

Pathetic record yet the diddy teams in Scotland roll over for them

 

[sofakineazy]

I wanna be adored- lololol

 

[NDC bear forever]

Since then Rangers have went to the Europa League ue Final, been in the third division (we all know why), have came back and still won a two legged tie more recently

 

[Xavi Hernandez]

Our result v Braga was the first time a Scottish (or Irish) team had won a home and away knock out tie in Europe since they beat Blackburn in 2003.

 

[sofakineazy]

This from the team who have won 8 championships in a row and 10 trophies. Utterly pathetic team when the decisions don't go their way.
They are the product of a very uncompetitive league.

I wish I could enjoy their downfall more, but to be honest I’d much rather they had dropped points in the SPFL. I actually wouldn’t mind if they made it all the way to the EL final if it meant we’d win the league.

I must confess though, it did bring a smile to my face reading English having to write, “And it means Rangers will be Scotland's sole representatives in the next round, with the draw taking place from 12:00 GMT in Nyon on Friday.”
