Celtic supporters have reached the point where trophies barely feel surprising anymore.
That is why the “It’s actually disgusting” reaction from the Celtic SLO landed so perfectly after Celtic completed another domestic double.
The joke works because everybody understands the feeling behind it. Celtic keep winning. The medals, title celebrations and trophy lifts now feel automatic.

Celtic success always feels extraordinary
Celtic’s 56th league title was another reminder that Scottish football has spent the last decade living through one of the most dominant eras the country has ever seen.
The club have won 22 of the last 30 domestic trophies. That level of consistency changes expectations inside a support. And the Celtic SLO’s Hampden tweet sums the success up perfectly.
Winning used to bring relief. Now it mostly brings yearly celebrations.
That is what the tweet really captured. Celtic supporters love winning silverware because success should be enjoyed regardless of how often it comes across.
Celtic fans know how ridiculous success has become
Celtic’s 56th league title and another domestic double should still feel special, but supporters are now reacting to it with humour instead.
That is the real meaning behind the “It’s actually disgusting” post. It was not criticism. It was admiration for how absurd Celtic’s dominance of Scottish football has become.
The club have now won 22 of the last 30 domestic trophies. At this stage, supporters almost expect silverware to arrive every season.
That is what makes the reaction funny. Celtic are so consistently successful that fans have started joking about it like it is unfair on everyone else.
Most clubs spend years chasing one major trophy. Celtic supporters are now celebrating doubles while pretending they are tired of winning.
That says everything about where the club sits in Scottish football right now.
