Scotlands biggest club and global football powerhouse have only gone and surpassed themselves.

Beaten by a part time team from Gibraltar in the Champions League qualifier.

Ferriby would turn that shower of ****e over.

FACT.

I think that is awful, revelling in the humiliation of a giant of the game from a footballing super power of a nation. It is. No really, it is. It is...<laugh>
 
It's all quite funny but really, what are a team like Lincoln Red Imps doing in Champions League qualifiers in the first place? Celtic too come to that...

That would've been much funnier if you'd said:

This makes a farce of the Champions League. What is a team from a nation with a joke of a league even doing in this elite competition?
Lincoln Red Imps shouldn't have been in it either.

They won their nation's top division.

Ergo, as a member of UEFA, they enter the Champions League at the stage that their coefficient grants them. All members are allowed at least one team in the competition.

It's not like they're in the group stages. They came into the tournament at the earliest possible stage, just to make the playoffs they have to win 3 games against technically better opposition.


This was also only the first leg. Celtic could easily comfortably win the second leg.
