Cheers and jeers

Congratulations to Celtic on setting the official seal on their procession to the title of the Scottish Premier League, though when there is so little competition in the absence of Rangers (now The Rangers as I know ad nauseam from pointless circular debates on The Telegraph that I had to trawl through when a web moderator).  It's not like in Italy when Juventus were relegated for corruption of referees and there were still other big teams but Internazionale kept on winning titles regardless.  Really, Celtic should go a season unbeaten against such cannon fodder.  Who's going to challenge them?  Aberdeen?  Hibernian?  Certainly not the financially stricken Jam Tarts (Heart of Midlothian).
Saying all this, Celtic deserved to be cheered to the rafters.  It is certainly a contrast to West Ham United winning at home and being booed off by their own supporters - shocking.  People made a fuss about Wes Hoolahan (who the man? Hoolahan) refusing to celebrate scoring against Aston Villa, not because they were an old club to whom he had affection, but because they were a club he had tried to join yet for whom he had never played.  I think boos are never productive (I was only ever once briefly lulled into releasing such easy negativity from my mouth, due to the collective nature around me at the end of a home game Newcastle had lost, before I came to my senses and sealed up) and sure the West Ham performance was ugly and unconvincing, but it will do nothing to inspire the players if they know that whatever they do the crowd will rumble with mutinous dissatisfaction.
