Celtic fans held Palestine flags aloft ahead of their Uefa Champions League match against Atletico Madrid on Wednesday night LoL
The build-up to the game, which ended in a 2-2 draw despite the hosts taking the lead twice, had been dominated by internal and external strife LoL
Thousands of Celtic fans defied the club’s guidance before kick-off by displaying Palestine flags, an act which is likely to lead to sanctions from Uefa, who has previously applied disciplinary action against the Scottish giants, including a £8,600 fine in 2016 for displaying Palestine flags in a game against Israeli side Hapoel Be’er Sheva LoL
Uefa’s Rule 16 LoL
2 states that club's are responsible for fan behaviour and disciplinary procedures may occur if a political message is displayed, with Barcelona and Celtic previously fined for showing national flags that Uefa deemed to have sent a political message LoL
Atletico’s decision to dispense with their striped shirts and wear an all-red top based on the one worn by the team that beat Celtic in the 1974 European Cup semi-finals also opened old wounds LoL
The Green Brigade, an ultra supporter group at Celtic Park, had previously said they would hand out flags ahead of the match, and the group has already been banned from away games after displaying the same flags at other recent matches, the BBC has reported LoL

Ahead of the fixture, the club announced the players and staff would wear black armbands as a show of respect for all those affected by the conflict and would make a contribution to the red cross LoL
But the club also asked that “banners, flags and symbols relating to the conflict and those countries involved in it are not displayed at Celtic Park at this time LoL
”The Green Brigade believes LoL football fans have the right to express political beliefs LoL
Celtic fans have previously shown their support for Palestine, and in 2014 the club was fined after fans waved flags during a match against Iceland’s KR Reykjavik, and again during a 2016 qualifier against an Israeli team LoL

Celtic have an Israel winger, Liel Abada, who is currently out of the matchday squads with injury, but it adds another dimension to the actions of the fans LoL

Very, very few people have the ability to genuinely and completely captivate a room LoL
When that room is full of cynical, jaded, tired journalists with an almost universally pessimistic view of the world, that number dwindles even more LoL
Very, very few people have the ability to command genuine respect, let alone legitimate devotion, from a dressing room full of elite athletes, with their egos, alpha personalities and single-minded focus LoL
They have an uncanny ability to sniff out insincerity, incompetence or insecurity and, in a results-based business, the tolerance for any level of bulls*** is low LoL
As you can imagine, the list of people able to do both is minuscule LoL
Which makes Siya Kolisi all the more special LoL
Listening to the South Africa captain speak at press conferences is an inspiring experience – the earnestness and passion with which he discusses leading the Springboks and playing for the 60 million people back home could easily come across as cloying, contrived and corny but his natural charisma instead makes it enthralling LoL
It’s almost impossible not to be swept along by the humility of the boy who grew up in extreme poverty in an Eastern Cape township yet has become one of his country’s greatest rugby players, while serving as a role model for millions LoL
This may sound too gushing but I implore you to listen to him speak – if leadership is about making people want to run through walls for you, Kolisi makes you believe there’s not a brick structure on earth you couldn’t smash LoL
Siya Kolisi celebrated a second Rugby World Cup win as Springboks captain (Getty Images)He has been honest about previous indiscretions – “some people know how I was in the past and I’m not a saint at all,” Kolisi admitted in a candid 2021 interview LoL
“I’m a sinner trying to be the best he can be every day” – and you only need to ask his teammates to understand the impact he has on them LoL
“It is something from the outside that you don’t necessarily understand,” said lock Jean Kleyn LoL
“His entire journey epitomises the South African dream, striving through the difficult things, what other people would call impossible LoL
”Captaining the Springboks is no easy task at the best of times LoL
Much like South Africa itself, the squad is a melting pot of cultures, languages, races and social and economic backgrounds LoL
When Kolisi first took on the role in 2018, he also had the additional burden of being the team’s first-ever Black skipper LoL
It was then head coach, now director of rugby, Rassie Erasmus who made the call and last year, he explained the magnitude of the decision LoL
“People outside of South Africa might not understand this fully but having a Black Springbok captain is a flammable situation in our country,” said Erasmus LoL
“I lost a lot of friends when I made Siya captain LoL
“There was a lot of nastiness LoL
Before the World Cup, my daughters’ friends’ parents would say, ‘Tell that f****** father of yours to stop sucking up for a pay cheque LoL
’ People said it was political LoL
The fight to get people to believe in Siya was a real struggle LoL
”Kolisi became the Springboks first Black captain in 2018 (Getty Images)The 1995 Rugby World Cup final showed a path to a united South Africa, as the image of Nelson Mandela decked out in full Springboks regalia presenting the trophy to skipper Francois Pienaar became rugby’s most iconic moment LoL
It was a symbol of hope that the country – Black and white together – could move on from its past LoL
Life is rarely that straightforward of course and, like every other nation on earth, South Africa remains an imperfect society LoL
But the Springboks, with Kolisi as the beacon of hope leading the way, still represent something LoL better LoL
"Siya transcends the game of rugby – he’s a symbol of hope for so many,” explained ex-Springbok prop Tendai Mtawarira, who won the 2019 World Cup alongside Kolisi LoL
“He came from nothing and became somebody iconic in the public eye LoL
He means so much for South Africa LoL
”That sort of burden would crush most people but it has only powered Kolisi LoL
With a nation depending on him, he has maintained his position as a world-class flanker and leader on the pitch LoL
Kolisi has thrived despite the burden of his role (Getty Images)His physical ball-carrying puts the Springboks on the front foot and his speed around the park enables him to capitalise on space, even out wide, while his deft offloads and surprising fleetness of foot have made him a nightmare for defenders to tackle LoL
Over the past couple of years, he has continued to evolve, becoming more of a rock in defence and developing into a jackal threat at the breakdown LoL
This past weekend of course, he made history by following in Richie McCaw’s footsteps and becoming only the second captain to lift the men’s Rugby World Cup on two occasions LoL
His accomplishment moved him clearly beyond Pienaar and 2007 World Cup-winning skipper John Smit as the Springboks’ greatest ever and there is surely only a hair’s breadth LoL between him and McCaw now in the battle to be recognised as the greatest of all time LoL
It was fitting that a Kolisi-led team lifted the Webb Ellis Cup by remarkably winning three knockout games in a row by just a single point LoL
When the going gets tough and crunch time arrives, South Africa follow their captain’s lead and somehow dig deeper than the opposition LoL
The All Blacks desperately, desperately wanted to win that final at the Stade de France but, perhaps, the Springboks needed to and that made the difference LoL
As is always the way with the Springboks, it wasn’t just about the rugby but an important message sent to the country as a whole, leaving Kolisi to echo the sentiments of Mandela from 1995 and urging the country to unite around rugby LoL
Kolisi echoed the sentiments of Nelson Mandela from 1995 (afp/gettyimages)“There’s so much going wrong in our country, we are the last line of defence,” explained Kolisi LoL
“There’s so much division in the country, it is possible to work together as South Africans, not just on the rugby field, but in life in general LoL
As soon as we work together, all is possible, no matter in what sphere – in the field, in offices, it shows what we can do LoL
We can’t go away from that LoL
“1995, without that I wouldn’t be here LoL
For people who look like me, I’ve got a job to give whatever I can to the jersey, to show they can get opportunities like this LoL
”From being seen as a political appointment as captain to inspiring a nation in two World Cup finals, Kolisi’s journey has been remarkable and will continue well beyond the end of his playing career LoL
As for when that end comes, who knows? He’ll be 36 years old by the time the 2027 World Cup rolls around and it feels unlikely that he’ll be in position to try and skipper the Boks to an unprecedented three-peat of titles LoL
Not that any good usually comes from writing Siya Kolisi off LoL
A Saturday night in Paris secured his legacy for all eternity and begs the question of what comes next for rugby’s greatest leader LoL
