For me it surpasses 10 leagues in a row as an achievement.

100%

One of those that won’t be fully appreciated until the next generation

I think you're right mick, especially when our dominance is over and people realise how ridiculous our succes has been recently.

100% agree it was some achievement, but, speaking as a non-Celtic fan, it was not good for Scottish football. The financial gap now between Celtic and other Scottish clubs is so large that it's hard to see how national competitions can be in any way competitive. Does all that winning not get boring?

Tbh mate, no.

As a football fan you never get bored of winning, what I would say has changed for Celtic fans is the reaction when we don't win, there's a lot more entitled fans because all they've known is winning or they're just grown too used to it.

C'mon, does all that singing and dancing no' get exhausting?

I will admit this but you can't tell anyone on here I said it. 🙂

I wouldn't be unhappy (much) if an Aberdeen or similar won the league, when Rangers went Scottish football went through a period of multiple teams winning trophies and it wasn't the worse thing to happen.

I understand where you're coming from but what happened to all the Jags fans after the League Cup final you won,and very easily too.
I'd estimate you had 25/30 k there that day,where did they all disappear to?
Likewise early 60s Killie,Pars,Well,2 Dundee sides all had huge crowds,where to?

I was at that game and there weren't more than 10 thousand Jags fans there - maybe 11, 12 at a push. Winning teams generate support/money: all the teams you mentioned have had to struggle against the pulling power of the Old Firm who are/were continually successful. Occasional success isn't enough.
