The Dream Dies
As Celtic lose 1-0 to Kilmarnock the dream of winning the Treble is quickly destroyed.
Am sure all Celtic fans across the world are very disappointed in yesterday's performance as most believed this was the first in winning all 3 cups of the Treble. The odds were on Celtic to win considering they had played 19 games straight without losing.
Before yesterday ended with everyone being disappointed, the day started of with everyone in high spirits. Many people were coming to the stadium to eat a 3 course meal before the match and they were all buzzing for the game as were the staff.
The No7 restaurant had twice the people in it than normal. On a normal match day we have about 130 odd people, however yesterday there was at least 212. All enjoyed a champagne reception with free beer bottles of beer already on the table for them coming in.
As they went to watch the game we all set up for them coming back, this included setting up two buffet stations of rice and curry, pasta and steak pie all to be served to them when they got back.
When they came back we expected them to be all down and quite silent, however it just goes to show Celtic do in fact have the best fans in the world as soon as a man called The Dubliner started to sing with his guitar he managed to get the whole room on their feet.
He reminded them that it's not the end of the world and that we still have the old firm game and the SPL to look forward to. If only Neil Lennon and the players would have the same spirit.
When they came back they were all very silent sitting with their pints barely talking. Just seeing Neil Lennon's face made me want to cry just a little bit, you could see how gutted he was and I'm sure the team also felt really gutted for him.
However, the best advice I can give him, the players and all Celtic fans is don't let this put a stop in winning two out of three trophies. This is still an amazing achievement for any manager. Lets hope next time they give everything they've got.
