[edit] Famous Celtic Lineups

This is surely just not suitable for an encyclopedia. WP:Fancruft? Inherently POV (what is the point of the "typical lineup from the 80s"?) Camillus (talk) 10:38, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

• delete. Inherently POV - no doubt information about Celtic's top players can be linked from or mentioned in the Celtic article. Grutness...wha? 11:18, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

• Merge into History of Celtic F.C. All but one of the lineups are ones that actual starting lineups for matches, and are thus verifiable; the sole exception is the "typical side from the 1980s", but that could be replaced with an actual lineup for a match from that era, or even a "most common" lineup, with appropriate citations to the statistical record. That match apart, this is definitely not original research, and while the choice of matches may be subject to POV I find it hard to disagree with anyone arguing that Celtic's European and UEFA Cup finals were not matches of importance in the club's history.

• Delete, WP:OR, WP:POV. And was I the only one hoping this would be about the Boston Celtics lineups from their championship years? --Kinu ^t/_c 23:43, 4 September 2006 (UTC)
  • don't be silly - it's Glasgow Celtic. Boston's team is called Boston United ;) Grutness...wha? 01:29, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
