Seemingly appointed by the board to help manager Ronny Deila adapt to the Scottish game and the demands expected of a Celtic manager, the jury is not so much out on John Collins, but hasn’t even entered the court room to consider the evidence. Because there are one or two things about him that need to be addressed. Such as this haircut.
Collins, a fine servant-and fantastic player- at the club in his day, has been quieter than expected thus far, and this has led to a lot of conjecture as to what his remit actually is. Or if he’s got an agenda of his own.
Anyhoo, you’ve got a day off work, and have ambled down to Lennoxtown, where you find that you are standing next to the Celtic No.2….
When he puts his bullworker down, what do you inquire of him ?
I would ask when he is leaving
What time is your Taxi, and when are you leaving
Why is Efe Ambrose playing at right back? It is a puzzle that has tormented me all season so far.
Does he not feel playing wingers on their unnatural side is limiting the number of chances being created for the strikers?
I have a lot of questions, i am sure i would be dragged out of Lennoxtown if i started.
they would probably ignore you after your first question, efe has been at right back becuase we didnt have any fit RB’s its not too hard to understand!!!
If you were made of chocolate…would you eat yourself?
are you just waiting on Delia failing, so you can takeover
How many sit-ups do you do in a day?
John,2 quick questions,so you can get back to your fitness
work-outs.
1)Is it true,at training,certain Celtic players mock you ? You hhave the bottle to challenge them……to bench presses ?
2)John,motivation ? With your soft tones,and sleepy delivery,
do you accept,that inspiring players,is not your thing ?
Me:When are you two…going to realise that the new system you are trying to implement is not working and what exactly is your plan B to stop the inconsistency in the league?
JC:(silence)just chews from his gopher chops!!
Do you own the enchanted mirror from sleeping beauty ?
What the fek do you do?
I’m going to the chippy, you want anything?
John you’re so gorgeous. What’s your beauty secret?
When was the last time you came in pished on a weekend and decided 3 am was a good time to cook a fry up?
Cause this is how I roll…..
Mortons rolls i hope!
John why the fuck are you smiling?
Do you understand that you need to be the “soft” link between manager and players, and do you feel you have the man management skills to be effective in that role?
John- what do you think you’ve brought to the club and when are you going to realise that whatever it was, it isn’t enough?
Is that James Forrest in your pocket, or are you really glad to see Ronny?
My question/s would be this….John, on the afternoon of our biggest game of the season, the home game v Maribor at Celtic Park, Did you at any point during your discussions with Ronny, encourage him to go for the throats of Maribor and cash in on that vital away goal scored in the first leg?
Did you say to Ronny, ” Ronny we need to play 2 up front and attack, Attack, Attack Maribor from the first minute.
If we get the first goal Ronny, Maribor will not have a chance with this full Parkhead crowd in full voice, we need to go for it Ronny “?
Did you say any of that John?
No matter how much I try to let the Champions league exit go and get over it, I CAN’T!!
IT WAS ALL SO AVOIDABLE!
DISGRACE!
Monti,
Yip,I agree.Very very costly.All he had to do,to give himself
breathing space,at the club,was to get into CL groups.We need the finance,and I shudder to think,how he will approach next season’s qualifiers.Providing of course,we win the league and
Deila is still here !
The are the ones to blame for the early exit in the Champions League they are quick to tell all and sundry how the Club benefits so much from being in it yet Season after Season they punt our best players and fail to replace them with any real quality.
A lucky break against Shakhter (one off the line one off the bar) and we scraped by last Season.
Only to be royally humped in the Groups.
We are a Europa League Club now and are where we deserve to be with limited funds and a poor League.
Get used to it.
The Board’
I would ask John this:
“How would you answer people who say that you and Ronny are too similar in outlook, personality and opinions, and that every successful management team has consisted of opposites?”
John being a great Celtic servant at a time when the club really was in the shite, does it not piss you off when the read some of the garbage above?
post of the day!!! the obsession with collins fitness and looks is mind boggling. i sense a lot of jealousy lol
any excuse to slag him as some ppl clearly have an issue with him for no reason
Why have things got so much worse, with supposedly “better and top class” Players, since you and Deila came along?. Previous assistants did a great Job, did us proud, and are now off to Follow Lenny!…, when are you off?, cos “sixpacks that don’t include Cola and Crisps” is no the answer! We need Skill, Morale, Leadership, Great Supportive Fans, and oh yes…RESULTS!. Happy Christmas Now Pal, Pls don’t wait around for it and become oor “Turkey” then! AND.. DON’t EVEN THINK ABOUT Deila Failing and YOU , gettin his Job, that wwould see “An Empty Paradise”!!
