- In order to build a successful football club, certain top quality appointments must be made.
They must be made after due care and attention is taken to ensure not only that the candidate has a proven track record of success at the highest level, but also the potential to further improve.
At Celtic , however, and this may well be the reason for the current collapse, custom and practice commonplace in the football industry is swept aside.
For instance, coaching, which one would think is paramount to enable high levels of fitness and organisation, which in turn would lead to success on the field, Celtic have opted for Gavin Strachan, son of former manager Gordon.
He doesn’t fit any of the above criteria, but never mind . Maybe the senior scout could help out by unearthing the kind of talent that needs only the minimum of tweaking.
The senior scout at Celtic is Craig Strachan, who…oh, you get the idea.
I’ve no idea if any of Strachan’s kids are in the medical profession, but if so, it could explain the injury crises of recent months.
- Could there possibly be a link between this kind of cronyism and the collapse of Celtic this season?
Yes men, cheap men, men whom it didn’t take much effort to find. Thank you,Peter, your wages are well deserved.
Was he not at Peterborough. Did he not know Tonev personally. And yet we still went for Ajeti.
The way the team are playing and the run that we’re on you’re moaning about the 1st team coach’s appointmen? Risible.
No idea whether either Strachan is good enough or not, but I’m 100% sure that he’s not the problem.
Even if you had no manager, no coaches, no medical staff, or even no CEO. all you should need is a ball to beat the likes of Ross County and St Johnstone: especially when you have spent the guts of £20m this year alone. You would hardly need a full team.
How very true.
Spot on.
Sorry Cole Burns but this is disrespectful blinkered nonsense.If the players adopted such an attitude you would get the same result we are getting even if everything else was in order. No Celtic coach since the beginning of Celtic would ever agree with your statement.
Of course, no Celtic coach would agree but that doesn
t make me wrong. I am not blaming the coaches anyway, I am just saying that no Celtic team that had £20 million spent on it, and that is this season alone, should need any coaching, cajoling or the getting of pampered treatment should lose to the likes of Ross County or Inverness, especially during a pandemic when allthe forecasters tipped Celtic to be the only team standing when it is all over.
It has got to the stage where Celtic are going to be the biggest losers, a complete and utter turnaround. Theres all the talk of sevco winning the league: what about the treble?
Anyway, the statement was hypothetical
and would never come to pass, unless in a school playground.
Of course! that
s it! now I remember where I experienced Celtics present type of football before.Lennon is the single biggest personal beneficiary of this cronyism.
Out of work, out of demand, sacked from last 2 jobs and over half a decade from doing anything remotely successful.
He’s still there because he’ll simply toady the board line.
Yes, the complete setup at Celtic has been shown to be a shambles but let’s not lose sight of the fact Lennon is the prime example of this.
If we had a functional setup then Lennon would never have been anywhere the managerial role.
Lets not green and whitewash this, he is the leading symbol of this dysfunctionality not an ‘innocent bystander’ adversely affected by this.
LMG!
I said it when NL was appointed to replace the rat who ran away & Board couldn’t tempt anyone else that would end in tears for Lennon . There are a number of Celtic fans who look down on people who come from what they consider low class. N L coming from a Lurgan getto just wouldn’t be capable of carrying out such an important job . These people were waiting for NL to fail & all last season when we won SPL & League Cup & progress as far as S C went ,they still felt their need to tell everyone who was interested that he shouldn’t have the job . Celtic with biggest home fan base missed
Pish
He’s fvckin demented that cvnt.
Mince.
The people who would look down on someone from a Lurgan ghetto are in the Celtic boardroom and fully support Lennon.
The fans who want him out don’t look down on people below them and base their opinions solely on the sh1tshow he’s constantly serving up.
Mince, that’s the best I have heard yet the Board that appointed MO’N ,WGS &
B R , all highly respectable & successful, and also appointed a man from a Lurgan getto to look down on . It wasn’t because of his long success as player & captain. Decided to appoint a man to look down . It wasn’t a Board member who preached that N L wasn’t good enough to manage Celtic even before a ball was kicked competitively under N L . It was our toffee nose so called supporters
Yeah, Tories are well known for not looking down on poor people.
Lawwell didn’t appoint any of those 3.
Its the sh1t football, stupid.
Away back to the DJing, Smyth.
Yer comments are gibberish.
Rodgers was out of work but in demand, in fact he’d turned down jobs waiting for the right opportunity. much to our good fortune.
Given the fantastic job he did he was always going to get a gig at the top of the EPL.
Lennon would be lucky to get a gig at Accrington Stanley and Celtic should be looking far higher than that.
If you feel “a bit sad, confusing and pathetic”, I can’t imagine too many people disagreeing with you.
LMG!
There was also his pay off from Liverpool that had various constraints in his ability to take a job within a certain amount of time , while he also had to consider his coaching teams welfare. I think it was over £15m. Somebody does talk an awful lot of shite .
LMG.
Duncan did rodgers not threaten to leave on a few occasions , voicing his displeasure at interference from lawell . Remember the terminado interview.. i feel this is forgotton that lawell made the man unhappy by vetoing possible signings , bringing in players like sved he knew nothing about . Yeah he would have went back down south eventually but i dont think he would have been in such a hurry had it not been for our self appointed director of football
Deary me but I’ll go easy on you, as I don’t want to be blamed for your next flounce off.
He was unemployed hence trying to get one-off ‘expert analysis’ gigs, the preserve of out of work, out of demand ex-managers trying and usually failing to be relevant.
Lennon has destroyed Celtic these past few months, actually ever since he came back, and seems hell bent in inflicting more punishment, knowing full well he can do nothing to help the situation.
That’s a problem for me and most Celtic fans, I suspect.
Given that you hated the Treble Treble years, its no surprise that you fully support our current plight.
I’ve completely ‘lost it’ with CFC/PLC, even beyond the Mowbray fiasco. I’d clear out the lot (in agreement with Cole Burns’ sentiments). We’ve nothing to lose now by relieving NFL, John Kennedy, the Strachan clan and last but should be 1st, Lawwell, who got us here.
We could put Scott Brown, CalMac and James Forrest (all of whom fully understand Celtic FC) in charge whilst searching out a SUITABLE replacement Manager and backroom staff.
ANYTHING WOULD IMPROVE THE STATUS QUO. Sorry Neil, but it’s just too evident.
HH
FC not PLC
BTW charlie, welcome back you’ve been sorely missed but FFS drop the Lawwell’s “wan ae us” crap. He MAY have been once but he is NOT any longer.
Ah “Awaiting for approval”, how refreshing!
You nailed it!! guy is an imposter should never been near Celtic job at anytime!! i always stated that, nicholas tho a bit of a twat was right and i am sure he speaks for many ex Celts and real legends like Mcstay,big Roy, Danny and many others!! This guy won the lottery 20 years ago and still he milks it!! wish oneill had never signed him! As look what we have created a entitled cluess manager that never be near a big club! but here we are saddled with a guy that lost so so many big games first time! And bottled it in 2011 at inverness, bottled it at ibrox to win the league 2012 los cup semis to ross county,hearts, st. mirren finals to kilmarnock! the huns cup ties to aberdeen an morton!! Rodgers showed how it should be done!! disgraceful situation we now find ourselves in and and not hindsight a TREBLE TREBLE WAS RUINED! By lawell hearing fans sing his name as he held that cup in went “f@@k it “! I am giving him it! Now we paying the price and being treated by utter contempt by these imposters and its they that feel ” entitled”! We all know we could still win this with a change but we be killed by out of touch fools that wont allow their pride to be hurt! while millions! of us have to suffer!! MADNESS!! Time to starve them out sadly, only way only way can you imagine no covid? They never pulled this no chance! Which actually shows how they view us the fans!! and we are CELTIC NOT THOSE B@@@:DS!!
Has he gone yet?
Fellow Lexiteers, tis time to rise up and take back control.
I just done a search for Craig Strachan there. God help us all. I think Neil Lennon might be the least of our worries.
Did he tell you how expert he was at a multiple range of sports?
One look at his LinkedIn page would give ye the boak.
Any man that up himself needs his head examined.
https:// uk.linkedin.com/in/ craig-strachan-b3554211a
Stay fit for purpose. Duncan and any other deluded individual repeat after me. LENNON OUT!!
If the people who run the club think that that by blaming “yobs” and “buffoons” they can deflect attention away from their many, many failures they’ve got another thing coming. By appointing Lennon they blundered. By keeping him in the job they are compounding their errors and making things much, much worse. They should have acted decisively and shown him the door after the Hungarian debacle or, at the latest, after the first Czech humiliation. But he’s still in the job. What a disgrace. They are lucky there are no fans in the stadium – I can’t imagine what would have happened if there had been a full house for the Ross County game …
LENNON OUT
It’s too late now, should have happened months ago, what decent manager is going to want the job, 13 points behind out of Europe, players and directors who don’t care, nothing attractive about the job.
Because of no fans Neil will unfortunately still be in a job.
He should do the decent thing and resign but he must be wanting his wages paid up and keep quiet.
Met him a few times and a very decent chap but I wish he would leave and take his back room staff with him. No of them seem to have any clue, just watch the guys in the dugout with the body language.
One of Lennon’s most vociferous critics is being a bit disingenuous today by saying that’s he’s criticised the club ‘for years’ for not having a long term plan when the truth is that he was one of the main proponents of the ‘Celtic Is A Well Run Club’ theory.
Apparently he’s also been causing havoc over on the Pravda site which is a bit ironic when some of his own readers have been telling him the truth of what’s really going on inside the walls of Celtic Park for years, even before Brendan was appointed.
I never did pay him much attention though his readers views were always interesting but now every Tim gets answered to by a glee filled Hun who’s ran riot over the site for months now with no sign of the boy in charge shutting him down.
You know things are bad when Huns take over Celtic blogs with neither sanction nor ban but can gloat over the loss of The Ten with impunity.
If that’s true the boy has a serious personality disorder and needs urgent medical help.
I have thought about it.
Often.
It’s been clear since he stepped in and rid the site of other long term posters who,were ridiculing him that he can control the site when he likes and every page was packed with comments back then.
So why would he get rid of all those hits only to end up with a site where there’s only 4 comments and 2 of them are his own?
How does that make either him or the site money?
So you think about it …
Every page he writes he has to hang around and work twice as hard just to keep annoying his one time fans?
Either way the site’s now unreadable and can’t have long to go so why would he bother?
He never brought anything to the table anyway.
You’re saying the boy shut down a successful and incredibly well attended site just to live in an echo chamber?
See, this is a perfect example of how you don’t think things through, Charlie, you get stuck at one bit, like you have with Lenny beating Barca, and can’t see past it.
Think it through.
Your proposal makes even less sense than the most idiotic JF post.
So work twice or three times as hard waiting for every response so you can write ‘What JD actually means is Mr Gerrard is a great manager’ etc to every fvckin comment on the site?
That’s behind nonsensical, Charlie, and only a nonsense heid like yours could come up with it and then continue to believe it.
It’s bad enough that the ‘Ted’ character needs his own heid looked at but now you’re saying that Forrest himself, who has another site to run, and a life to live, has to check back every 5 minutes just to wind up and alienate his own readers?
You haven’t thought this through, Charlie, same way you didn’t think through ‘Celtic’s Won 12 Trophies In A Row’, ‘Lennon’s 20 Years At Celtic’ and making a monkey outta Maradona when he wasn’t an hour dead.
Making up shite to suit yer ain narrative is one thing, fvcko, but mocking the dead is another thing again.
Now go n take yer beret aff, stop poising in the mirror and get back to us once you’ve learned how to both think things through and to take responsibility for your own words.
Alright?
I agree he’s a moon howler. But why does his articles never appear on newsnow anymore if he’s reliant on the traffic?
Good point, Bg.
He set up another site in the middle of The Celtic blog years ago so who knows what he’s up to?
He was taking a bit of stick at the time but why set up another site knowing you might kill the one that’s already most popular?
And it looks like that’s what he’s done tae but there’s not a bit of sense in any of it.
And remember he already killed his On Fields of Green site to set up The Celtic Blog prior to all this.
Maybe he thinks like the board and wants to have his cake and eat it.
And what ‘massages his own ego’ on a blog where he has to work all day to write half the comments, ya daft cvnt?
He has another blog going anyway so why bother with the deid yin?
You just can’t rhin’ of anything, can ye?
Tell ye what , fadger, the fact you can’t stay away fae here no matter how much we can’t stand ye, I think it’s YOU that needs a blog to massage your ain ego, even if it’s just tae annoy folk.
Though how the fvck a dribbling halfwit like you can even huv an ego is incredible.
Short window of time:
The Celtic PLC board have thrown down the gauntlet.
They know what is needed to be accomplished for change within the Company/Club.
The divide within supporters will allow them to close the window shut. (for now)
In for a penny, in for a pound.
Celtic statement 5 minutes ago backing Neil Lennon til January. This is further proof of the contempt that we’re held in.
Just read it nick. My god. We have dropped our standards and are being held to ransom by a bunch of croneys taking the piss. There is no Celtic anymore we are being gaslighted into believing we are on the right track with a broken man at the helm. The club knows the boundaries of what we are prepared to endure. There should be a class action from supporters who paid for season tickets whilst not being allowed in the ground. There should be a standard held for our club, whilst losing isn’t a crime there is a common limit superior clubs should endure we are now at the level of Motherwell in what we should accept. We are no more than a top six club in the Scottish premiership and second place would be deemed a success this is happening before our eyes. I plead with every paying supporter to rip up their season tickets in a peaceful protest because they don’t mean shit. We are being conned by evil bastards. Fuck the strachan family. Ronny Delia was a decent man who walked with the admission he wasn’t up to it. Lennon should do the same. This is a fucking swindle
Police protection for the board paid out of the Celtic support’s pockets.

You are entitled to your opinion but not your own ‘facts’.
He’s not been at the club for 20 years ago, at least I hope when he said Hibs always have to play against 12 men at Celtic Park that he wasn’t ‘at the club’ at the time.
I know you hated the Treble Treble years, so now you’re trying to airbrush them for history, to be left with a lennon continuum.
Not 1 single player should be leaving whilst lennon is still there, as that’s a job for the new, competent manager.
Before Rodgers came in the players were vastly underperforming but get a manager commensurate with Celtic’s status and hey presto Invincibles.
lennon is the sole cause of our on-field problems and would never be in the job if our off-field issues were addressed.
It should be noted that lennon lost 2 titles before he won one against a, literally, dying Hun and is the chief cause of why the 10 is a forlorn hope.
That’s 3 out of the 6 league losses we’ve experienced in the past 20 years. Wow sign this guy up long-term.
In my experience, a spoilt wean is an accurate description for someone who flounces of, as he can’t handle losing (and losing badly) the debate.
‘Lennon’s 20 years at Celtic’?!
Is that to go with yer ‘Celtic’s won 12 trophies In a row’ mince fae the other week?
Wtf is wrong wae you, fadger, I’d have thought someone like yourself wae your tongue up Lenny’s @rse would know exactly how long he’s been at the club.
Instead you just sit there and make shit up like an idiotic wean then expect o be taken seriously.
How can you live with yirsel when this is the sum total of yer contribution to this site, made up lies & nonsense?
In fact, why do ye even bother?
Well, we can’t be bothered with your exaggerations and made up shite.
Neil Lennon is a bawhair fae losing all integrity and respect fae the Celtic support, not because of anything but his beyond dismal failings as a manager.
Would you say the same for Tony Mowbray because he invented The Huddle?
It amounts to the same thing at this stage.
Sycophancy.
Youre a sycophant, Charlie.
And sycophants go down with the objects of their desire.
You’ve never checked but bang on about “2 decades”, “20 years”.
Perfectly sums you up.
I make it about 12, finished as player 2007 and temp manager 2010.
Rodgers took as to unparalleled levels of domestic domination, which was always going to continue after he left but is now crashing down due to lennon.
Treble Treble, £35m profit and £9m in agreed compo.
Lennon last season, sold Tierney £25m, took £10m from piggy bank and made £100k profit ie almost £35m loss without those 2.
The way things are going it looks like we’ll need to pay someone £9m to take him off our hands.
Its a real puzzling why Celtic fans would prefer Rodgers over lennon.
PS Are you going to cut out the Heil Hitler crap, it might go down well on FF but not on a Celtic site, sunshine.
He can’t, it’s been drilled into him, Cha.
From the start.
Correct, Cha, Lennon’s been at Celtic 12 and a half years, seven as a player, 4 as manger first stint now a year and a half this time.
And that is a LONG way off 20 years, not that such facts bother groupies like the fadger here.
And 12 and a half is NOT ‘fifteen’ either, fadger.
You reduce or from your initial lie of 20 years, get called on it, fail to check again then decide to go with yet another lie of fifteen …
I found the full figure with one search, ffs, why can’t you, sycophant?
14 and a half isnae 20, fudge arse
Definitely thick
Absolute nepotism. He’s breached an unspoken level of losses not befitting the stature of the club that’s why there have been protests. He wasn’t good enough as a player . As a manager given the resources he achieved the bare minimum. He should be gone and forgotten quickly The consensus of any level minded supporter says he should have gone a month ago.
There ye go again!
20 fvckin years ago!
His two successes in getting us into the Group Stage years & years ago, neglecting to mention that he got us knocked out the EL twice only for Sion & that other lot to screw up thus letting us in the back door, where LENNON SCREWED UP AGAIN.
Youre living in the past, bawbag, wake up and smell the coffee, this isn’t 20 years or 10 years ago, this is now, ya brainless halfwit, an right now Lennon looks like he can’t even tie his own laces in the morning.
Licking yer queen’s bootstraps isn’t a profession, fool.
It’s the mark of a Hun.
Ooh, I can feel the lip being petted and the next flounce off can’t be far off.
Hello there, yourself.
I hope the Flounce Room is all set up and ready for the next episode.
Haha, quality, Cha 😀
I have a lack of faith with this site given it’s wide exposure. Every comment with any credence is shelved and put out of sight until another diary is written. Why the fuck should every comment be scrutinised. If it were to be beyond the pale it could be easily removed. It’s fucking dodgy what happened to freedom of speech? Fucking shitebags hell bent on sanitised opinion. Get your act together
YOu think we sit here and monitor all the comments?
Hahaha…youre more deluded that Peter Lawwell.
The comments that dont get published right away are flitered out by WordPress Askimet until one of us logs in and approves them. Or bins them if they are pish.
No one sits and moderates the site, we all have actual lives.
Why the filter.? Why can’t comments be published instantly? Why is it then set up for our comments to be published by pot luck alone? It defeats the whole purpose of fluidity of conversation. Everyone finds themselves summarising the original comments into something less than what they were. You may as well move over to Facebook. It’s highly frustrating
There’s every chance that the comments that slip through the system ie instantly published are deemed unacceptable. Ffs there are intelligent people on here on any given day or night complain that there comments go into the ether and may or may not get published. Most of the waiting for approval comments then get published into old threads if they’re approved. I know you’re going to tell me to fuck off if I don’t like it but that’s not the answer. Maybe I will fuck off it’s a shame because you’ve got the best heads available as far as Celtic is concerned. I appreciate you put your free time into the blog. And your podcasts are excellent.
Bit drunk when I wrote that desi. Humble apologies.
No apology needed. Everyone including admins suffer the WordPress comments issue now and again but we wont be moving to another platform in any near future so just have to bear with it.
No one regulates comments, some will indeed get spiked if “phobic” but only is spotted in Trash, no-one in admin goes through every comment, we assume folk can act decent enough
It is frustrating alright but I get why it’s there, though I’m not sure mocking a legend who had passed less than hour before is ‘decent enough’ really.
But that’s the same guy who think JF sits with his beady eye on The Celtic Blog day & night waiting for his readers to come on just so he can jump into his idiot Hun ‘Ted’ persona to berate and belittle them ‘for clicks’ while also running another blog AND trying to live his own life and jetting off to Greek beaches.
So I suppose the phrase ‘Not All There’ might well be applicable to young Duncan Doughnut and that pity is why you give him a by.
Cheers.
And you do indeed do great podcasts.
No, dickead, YOU are the clown on the melt.
Thats why you pissed off for a few days only to reappear under a slightly different moniker and expect us all to forgive you your debts and just carry on as before, just like Sevco.
Youre not just displaying ‘Green Hun’ behaviour here, Charlie, you ARE the living personification of Hun thinking …
Spit shite, walk away and expect or all to be forgotten about, thanks to your ‘untouchable’ status …
Sadly for you I have your number and your hubris and arrogant sense of entitlement to say and do what you like will be your very undoing, same as it was for oldco Rangers.
And I wont have to do a damn thing.
But it will happen.
You yourself have guaranteed it.
Are there any guidelines on WordPress Askimet that posters could review to try to avoid this issue?
I find it funny that some sites are thinking that the removal of the barriers at Celtic Park are a sign the these cvnts on the board are taking baby steps toward a softening approach to the shambles they’ve been the architects of. Removal of the barriers will be because UEFA are in town on Thursday and wouldn’t take kindly to the Celtic Wall on the Celtic Way. Wake up people.
Is the reason that NL remains in the job is because PL and DD know that Sevco are going to implode very soon?
No.
Maybe and that said unlikely. I think they think they have leverage with no fans at the games. They can hope the teams starts winning again at some point up to the new year. Hope they are winning by the time fans are back inside and carry on regardless.
Short term thing again, Charlie.
How do you know King & Desmond aren’t playing the Long Game together?
For ‘the good of Scottish Football’ and ‘In the best interests of ‘The Company’?
Because that’s how it’s looking, thanks to The 5WA.
*Thinking.
Not that you think much.
I just told you, ya thick cvnt, can’t you read?
Desmond & King have been playing the Long Con on their support.
King gets his money and out of Dodge, Sevco get the CL riches, the PLC get their much loved ‘rivalry’ back, Scotland remains divided while the supporters of both teams keep getting fleeced ad infinitum.
You really don’t have a brain in yer heid, do ye, monkey?
Ahahahahaha
You’re delusional, dummy.
‘Desmond cannot stand them’ ‘
He wants Celtic dominance to continue’ …
Thats why he got Peter to sign the 5WA and why the entire Celtic support have gone mad over the past month …
Because Dermot, generous benefactor that he is, decided to use his lapdog cheapest option available to collapse Celtic’s title challenge and dominance with it.
And King is selling now at 20 pence a share because he knows they’re not worth tuppence.
They’ll get the 30-40 million from the CL courtesy of Dermot & Peter same as they bent over for them last time and Sevco get to pay off their ever mounting debts to Hector, Liverpool, Ashley, etc AND stay alive in the process.
Thats why the 10 million Ashley payout & the 9 mil owed to He tor has been pushed so far down the line, to give them the breathing space to make the Group Stages.
And you, squaddie, her marjorie’s royal boot licker, are the only fvckin Hun on here no matter what colour of scarf you’re wearing.
Your mocking of Maradona proved that, you sick minded cvnt.
In fact, in every you’ve done since mocking the man who was not an hour dead has been Hun like.
From running away to getting admin to wipe all your ‘debts’/sins, to not taking responsibility for what you write, to returning under a new, and only slightly different, moniker, even down to think that we’d forgive you …
You are Sevco, Duncan ya fadger.
And we’re never gonnae let you forget it.
Ooh, touch touchy, soldier boy!
This is the way I talk and if snowflakes take offence that’s their problem and no mine.
And do you know why I use an online moniker, Charlie?
Because only idiots & halfwits put their real name & address up online.
You ‘apologised but it didn’t get through’, eh ..?
So why don’t you apologise again, so we can all read it and see how sincere in your apology you really are?
Take too much out you first time, did it?
No, you didn’t apologise to anyone and now you’re lying that it ‘didn’t go though’, you sneaky cvnt.
So apologise now.
Apologise to all of us for mocking the death of Maradona when the man wasn’t an hour dead.
Go on.
Apologise, or keep proving to us what a scumbag you are.
Well that’s that. Official statement from the club. Lemon will be going nowhere until the New Year. No point in shouting Lennon out until the games for the rest of the year have been played. LAWELL OUT!
Lennon going nowhere until the New Year? Of course, by then it won’t matter, especially when the Huns do us 5-0 at Ibrox. Lennon should have gone a month ago. It is now too late and now doesn’t matter for this season. What faith can any Celtic fan have that we are good enough to beat Hearts in a Cup Final? We can’t score and we can’t defend. A good manager can lift a team, sometimes inspire them. Lenny doesn’t listen but here is advice from a lifelong fan who has seen 3 nine in a rows. Get Hazard on goals. The bhoy can defend corners well. Get Taylor back at leftback. Have we even won any games with Laxalt bombing forward? (Bolingoli mark 2?) Drop Broonie for a while. Remember when we had Christie partnering McGregor and how much energy we had, with good results? Finally, feck the fitness, goalscorers score goals and Griffiths is the only goalscorer we have! Here’s an idea too. Our fans lift the team as Big Jock often said. No fans mean the MIBs can do their business without opposition. The reason Newco play so well is that their fans get on their team making them nervous and error-prone. No fans, no nerves. If we are still in the race come New Year, then we must get Forster back. However, Lenny must resign. I now believe we must bring in O’Neill and Keane to kick some ass and shake things up. Lennon out, please. He’s lost his mojo and delaying things won’t help him, the team or us absent fans. Also, hand it to the Newco team playing out of Ibrox. They have a great defence and are racking up an incredible goal difference. Perhaps our only role will be to ruin their invincible season? What happened to us? Asking Lenny to leave does not change our appreciation of him as a player, a coach or as one of us but surely it’s time for him to go?
Very good post Devoy and I agree with most of your points although I don’t think that MON and Roy Keane would be the solution to our woes. We need a dynamic team manager with a proven track record, someone who is forward thinking and capable of introducing a new project with modern training techniques and systems of play that would convince and motivate our players. Someone with the type of organisational skills to get the lads functioning as a strong unit and bursting a gut to play for each other once again. An Eddie Howe or a Dan Petrescu for instance. Top level managers like Pochettino, who has been interesting Real Madrid lately, are way out of our reach. As it stands, things aren’t just stagnating. They’re becoming progressively worse and the longer Lennon and his coaching team remain, the hole that we’re in will just get deeper and deeper. An irreversible and unbearable situation. It breaks my heart to say it but not only has Lenny lost our confidence and backing, he’s now beginning to lose our respect. His prolonged stay is standing him in good stead to outdo Mowbray, Barnes and Delia in overall ineptitude. Keeping him on for another month is insane, Our current coaching staff should not have any part to play in the decisions to be made in what is going to be a vitally important January transfer window. If a little time is needed to bring in the right man with his own technical team, why not appoint someone like Willie McStay as a short-term interim coach to reduce the malaise and help introduce the winds of change? The board seem to have lost the plot completely and have alienated a very large section of the support. If the farce continues for much longer, they really are going to lose out big time when they get round to promoting season tickets for next term. God only knows where we’ll be by then if the club doesn’t act very quickly. Lawell is a spent force who has been treating the fans with utter contempt so he can GTF. Hope he’s gone at the end of the season.
“someone who is forward thinking and capable of introducing a new project with modern training techniques and systems of play”
Agree about this and is why the permanent appointment of lennon was completely bizarre.
Deila tried to introduce modern methods but was undone by the players not buying into it and, er, because he was a rubbish manager.
If he came back after that it would make some kind of sense in that it could be rationalised that we had dabble with ‘new fangled things’ but it doesn’t work in Scotland blah, blah, blah and so back to the future we go. I wouldn’t agree but can see the argument.
But Rodgers came in, was fantastically successful and all the players bought into it, so to basically throw all of that away, which probably cost a lot of money, made and continues to make no sense.
Hopefully the right decision will be made this time and all the good work from that time can be resurrected rather than having to start again from scratch.
When the time finally comes for Lennon to go, I just hope Paul Lambert isn’t the new choice.
If Lambert is in the frame then it means he’s doing a crap job wherever he is at the moment.
Strachan, O’Neill, Keane, Lambert, Kennedy etc.
It does my nut in that paucity of thinking.
Spot on. For the record, Lambert currently has Ipswich Town in 3rd place in League 1 but the fans are far from happy with the quality and style of football on show. He seems to be in the frame though, just like the others you mention. A depressing thought but at least we have the chance to see Messi playing against Cristiano tonight, maybe for the last ever time. Barça v Juve starts in 10 mins.
You know what ‘sense’ it makes to the, Cha …
It’s the O** F**m and that’s all they want.
Not Europe, not top class managers with innovative methods coming and challenging Peter …
Rodgers proved that.
And the 5WA proves that 10 million a year from Sevco trumps 40 million a year from Europe every fvckin time.
The minute he said that I knew we were in trouble.
And now here it is.
We could have got Bielsa when we were looking for a replacement for Rogers. He took a Chilean National team that was playing shite under 3 previous managers and turned them into a unit that qualified for the World Cup and just failed to beat Brazil in the knockout stages. He has taken Leeds into the premiership after they spent years in the doldrums. I’ve seen him managing teams for years…he’s a disciplinarian, believes in attacking football and plays players in their natural position. He would have been ideal for us.
He wouldn’t have been ideal for Lawwell.
Therein lies the problem.
Agree with most of your points Devoy45. I think the horrendous decline we are seeing has multiple causes including Covid but for me the biggest factor must be the lack of connection players have with the coaching staff. To make the same mistakes week in week out is mind boggling. But why would ambitious players listen to coaches who have little experience at winning in Scotland (even) never mind in EPL and in Europe even if what the coaches are saying is reasonable.I would accept MON and Keane but only till the end of the season and then we need a complete rethink perhaps changes of Board, coaches, manager, players. I think at least Keane was an achiever as a player and would command respect. I think MON would be okay on a personal level. But definitely only till end of season. The Board have made it clear that NL is in until the January rangers match. Would MON and Keane still be willing to come after then? Assuming an unlikely Celtic victory, does NL stay until end of season?
All good points, Iljas, but The Five Way Agreement trumps them all.
The OF is all they want, a divided Scotland where Tim blood flows under watch of the coppers while Peter & Bankier keep grassing up our own.
THAT is the future of Scottish fitbaw, same as it ever was.
What an historic day, the 8th of December 2020, when at long last we can see the pathway out of this dreadful pandemic. When all of our elderly and vulnerable people can at last receive the vaccine and get some form of protection to this terrible disease. Many are the problems that are facing our club and we should not forget them, but non the less this is just wonderful news for the people, our families and our friends, lets just reflect on that and feel joyous excitement looking forward to Christmas. Hail Hail….
Hear hear. The vaccines are by far our best hope for putting an end to the nightmare.
Cheers Weered and Yoker. There’s been hints of big changes at Celtic for some time, but this time, something just feels right about them, lets all hope that this time the rumours are right, the timing just seems right. Big changes need to be made at the club, past wrongs need to be righted and the club needs to return to its core values, its roots. Our support does so many good things, it deserves to be treated much better than it is.
Vaccines require 10-15 years of rigorous research and scrutiny.
Yet this one is up & swinging within 9 months?
You go right ahead and let this ever so trustworthy government inject you with fvck knows what.
Let us know how ye get on.
Ta.
As you were! Big Don, Big Bad Don. You take it, or leave it, could’nt give a monkey’s, my arm stands bared, ready willing and able, they stick heroin up there ars-es ,do’nt think they could give a monkey’s either.
Bad line, Mike, can’t make out a word you’re saying.
Please try again later.

The lines are busy, i’m getting a pre-recorded message, it’s saying ‘all our operators are out getting vaccinated for the coronavirus’. Whether you take it or don’t take it, it’s a matter of choice, me? I’m taking it ASAP.
I’ve posted a link from the US Food & Drug Administration’s Steve Anderson, PhD, MPP Director, Office of Biostatistics & Epidemiology, Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research (CBER), detailing the multiple list of dangerous side effects, including death, from this thing that you’re gonna let them put inside you, Mike, but I doubt it will get through now.
You seem like a good man and I thought I should let you know when the FDA are warming the public not to take something as it might likely paralyse or kill them you might want to pay attention to that.
After all, the page wouldn’t be the same without you.
You can use this headline as your guide as the link won’t pass:
’COVID-19 Vaccine Bombshell: FDA Documents Reveal DEATH + 21 Serious Conditions As Possible Adverse Outcomes.’
It’s on a page called GreenMedInfo.
Cheers.
Don’t patronise me. You’ve made your choice and I will make mine. As an aside.. of course there was complicity by Desmond and Lawwell, but Desmond isn’t stupid, he knows, no Huns means a direct path to the CL. the Celtic share price rocketed when someone realised that. Today the share price sits at 105p, at its highest last year it was 165p. Do you honestly think that he will be happy about that? will he F. low share price, investment less. Complicity with the Huns, low share price, liquidation them, higher share price.
I’m not patronising you.
You’re doing grand there yourself.
That’s right, of course it is, I’m patronising myself, how can you patronise yourself? pure guff.
I don’t know how you do it but you’re doing it, mate.

BDG,
Agree fully
Good man, Monti.
Ive sent the same headline three or four times but it’s not going through.
Why would anybody trust the British government on anything?
Never mind that they lie to them every minute of the day but then letting inject them with shite they’ve no even bothered testing on animals?
Who in their right mind would trust this government to even see them safely across the street?
You clearly have no clue how vaccines are developed and tested through clinical trials. I will be happy to take it and prevent myself from getting sick and prevent others getting sick. I used to think conspiracy theorists were just gullible fools – I was right
See the US Food & Drug Administration’s dire warnings above, dummy.
Theres also a link to that page and a link to the Learn The Risk. Org page detailing how vaccines are filled with dead monkey parts, barium, aluminium, formaldehyde, which is normally used for embalming corpses and, as Duncan says, aborted foetal cells.
Is it still a ‘conspiracy theory’ when it’s on the FDA, the WHO & the CDC’s websites, dummy?
These are the official sources, after all …
So what do you think, loudmouth?
Got the balls to read them for yourself?
Course you don’t!
Because you know how much these facts will fvck you up.
But not half as much as the vaccine will.
Now fvck off, dick, we weren’t talking to you in the first place.
Who asked you?
Its on the FDA’s own website.
But don’t let me stop you from being injected with dead monkey livers and aborted foetal cells, Ibrox boy.
You’re exactly the kind of loud mouthed interjecting misinformed halfwit we can all do without.
Have you checked those patent numbers for proof that the Gates Foundation have applied for both a ‘unique Coronavirus’ AND its ‘cure’, ie, the va c cine yet, Broxburn?
See, it’s not a conspiracy theory when billionaires like Bill Gates corner the market in something and such information is automatically a matter of public record …
No, Ibrox boy, then it becomes a conspiracy FACT that you can check for yourself online with just the few numbers provided.
So you, idiot baws, either check those patents that will make Bill Gates even more billions via his exploitation and death of his victims or you keep yer fvckin neb out my conversations, you arrogant clueless cvnt.
I don’t think it’s as long as that, 3 to 5 years is what I’ve read most often.
However, the vast majority of this time is non-productive time eg form-filling, applying and waiting for funding etc.
Most of that wastage has been cut-out and rather than competing self-interest we are seeing governments expeditiously funding and co-operating internationally to show what can be achieved when all the blockages are removed.
I do not believe that there’s any critical shortening of research, medical trials etc and simply everything and the kitchen sink and lots and lots of people are being thrown at this, as it literally affects everything.
I’m sure there’s lots of impure motives on display eg first world countries ponying up, as it directly affects them and their economies whereas for third world countries no such urgency will be on display.
I’m also sure that Big Pharma will make a fortune but they’ve literally got us by the balls.
Vac or die.
I know which one I choose.
10 to 15 years, Cha.
And I’ll tell you what’s weirder still …
The Gates Foundation applied for a ‘unique Coronavirus’ patent way back in 2006 and it was only granted in 2015, so 9 years there.
Heres the patent number if you want to check it yourself
US2006257852
And what’s even weirder again is that the Gates Foundation then applied for a ‘Coronavirus Vaccine’ patent in 2014, which was granted in double quick time, in January 2019, a couple of weeks before the whole thing broke.
Heres the patent number for the vaccine, applied though Europe this time, if you want to look at it for yourself
EP3172319BI
Have a look yourself.
Im sure it’s just sheer coincidence that Bill Gates, a computer billionaire with no medical experience nor expertise and who got rich selling dodgy stock to a gullible public has his Foundation apply for both the Coronavirus pathogen patent AND the patent for the vaccine 5 to 14 years BEFORE the whole world gets locked down due to a ‘new strain’ of Coronavirus.
Why would a guy like that suddenly be in charge of the whole world’s health when he has 35,000 families in India suing him and his Foundation for the terrible damage and death they have brought to their children and their families.
Personally I wouldn’t trust the cvnt as far as I could throw him, never did.
But as Mike says, it’s up to you, your call.
If you want to put your life into this scum’s hands it has nothing to do with me.
I’ve sent a longer reply, Cha, but since it mentions The Gates Fou dation’s role in both culturing a new Co ro na vi rus back in 2006 AND also applying for the va cine in 2014, and getting it in January 2019, I think the Algo won’t let it through.
Patent number for the initial pathogen US2006257852 (2006)
Patent number for the va c cine EP3172319BI
Have a look yourself if you doubt me.
The latter applied for in 2014 and granted in double quick time in 2019.
Some timing, eh?
So they’ve had the va c cine since at least January 2019, having applied for it 5 years earlier …
And the question is, why didn’t they tell us they had one they prepared earlier?
No sarky responses here, eh?
Go and check those patent numbers to see why I don’t trust these lying cvnts one inch.
And why those who do are ill informed halfwits.
Well said, that man.
Good to know that you’re savvy on this stuff as too few are.
He can’t hear a thing!
🙂
You’re a decent man mike if nothing else. Wise enough to sit back and see this out. The rest of us are reactionary in both sides. We have had our day and let it slip cheaply. It will come around again
Don’t get too excited about this va cine, i’d gladly be the last to get it.
Vaccine
I’ll never get it.
Under no circumstances.
The Brits have done for enough of us already.
Do ships fall off the Flat Earth you live in ? Big Don Gibberish right enough.
Ooh, look who’s fallen oot it’s Mammy’s underwear drawer!
It’s Duncan’s wee bum chum, the ever Unfit For Purpose!
You’re right you’ll never get it!
Did you check those patent numbers for yourself, Ibrox boy?
The Ines abive proving The Gates Fou n dation have had a new strain of CV since at least 2006 and ‘the cure’ for it aka, The va c cine, since January last year?
I bet you didn’t.
And you won’t either.
Youd rather have them inject you with their poison than learn anything, sucker.
Aye, I thought as much.
Could do with a vaccine at Celtic Park.
A total cleansing would be better as the stench coming out that boardroom is giein me the boak.
breaking news breaking news scotland will dishoot the plague vaccine starting today from the oldest to the youngest in 3rd place in the cue is crazy mike the fermer we tried to interview him but he wis arguing wae the auld wummin in second place aboot the price a sterident the nurses finally calmed him down by giving him his daily boatla buckfast ha ha ha ha ////hows tricks crackpot
They must be letting the prisoners from Barlinnie out early for Christmas, ya ould rascal yeh.
Tricks are good charlie bhoy and the shotgun’s still locked and loaded, hope you’re good amigo. 😉

Hahahahahahahah
That should read…… lucky baaaaaaa..stards
Hahahaha. lucky baaaaaa..stards.the brylcream bhoys.^ like father like son.
he used to use that before he went grey
Sure I read somewhere that he was using a moisturiser under his foundation to look much younger.

Vaccines are a sham and in some cases cause autism and even death. I’m in Duncan’s corner here. See the podesta files re Julian Assange regarding vaccination
Well said, Ian, though I haven’t seen Duncan’s thoughts on it as looks like the moderators have removed it.
Autism, narcolepsy, seizures, paralysis and countless other side effects including death.
It is suspected that this is due to the dead monkey parts (livers & kidneys), barium, aluminium, formaldehyde and aborted foetal cells they put in them.
Unfortunately it looks this site is in the pocket of someone who doesn’t like talk of the va c cine and we can’t share links on it or even send quotes by concerned doctors & other healthcare professionals on the extreme dangers of all va c cines.
There’s a site called LearnTheRisk.Org detailing all of the above, along with more details regarding how tens of thousands of families across Africa & India are suing The Gates Foundation & Bill Gates himself for the damage & devastation these toxins have caused to their families & communities.
I’ll try to send the link but I suspect the mods won’t let it through.
https:// learntherisk. org/
Success!
Remove the spaces before ‘learn’ & ‘org’ to see hats really in these toxins and the terrible damage they’ve caused to so many families across the world.
The order to receive vaccine: all members of the Royal Family (what, a thousand or so?) All royal livestock. All land-owning Tories. All Tories. Oops, sorry people, vaccine all gone!!
Gerrard and his team are probably the only ones to have benefitted from this deadly pandemic.
Go back to March and of course the anger was on the other side of the city at the results they were recording. Defeats by Hearts and Accies had put to bed any notion of silverware. Gerrard was hanging on by his finger tips.
Over on our side though the majority knew things weren’t right.
Some on here of course were bamboozled by stats. Not by what they were watching.
Although we had won the cup the way we were outplayed was a real eye-opener then of course they defeated us before they capitulated. Lessons weren’t learnt.
Fast forward and in pre season we lost to the teams sevco defeated easily. Some slagged me off for this but it was a real warning sign.
We lost to sevco at home without a single shot on target. Out of Europe twice as top seeds don’t forget. Played without a striker ffs.
Then humiliated by Ross County and nearly again by St Johnstone
The recruitment a joke.
Toney should have been signed instead we went and got an overweight unfit striker in Ajeti.
Probably paid out more fir him in the long run no sell on value but Toney now worth 30 to 40 million.
He was ready to go fit as a fiddle.
Marshall should have been signed instead we got a guy afraid of his shadow
I will ask you a this for i am at a loss,what is Celtics best 11 given all players are fit.
Now I mean Celtics best 11 players not in a positional sense and you will see the huge gaps that need to be addressed
Jullien Ajer Rogic McGregor Forrest Christie McGregor Edouard Griff.
No Goal keeper of quality
No full backs of quality
One proper centre back of quality
One winger of quality
That my friends is the reason we can’t win a game.,and the disaster that has been coming with a recruitment policy that is the worse we have witnessed for a very long time.
It hasn’t been about injuries or covid those have been excuses.
Its been about improper management of out great club in our most historic season since Lisbon.
Lawwell has to go with Lenny as does head of recruitment.
Bring back John Park its been dreadful since he left.
Anybody know why the first man to get the shite pumped into him today was called William Shakespeare?
It’s because all the world’s a stage.
And the joke’s on you who fall for it.
Oh dear – get a grip
I’m no yer ‘dear’ and you can piss off wae yer sarky ignorant shite.
Has he gone yet? (Tuesday)
I’m not a member (yet) but if anyone is interested in the governance of Celtic and joining others in trying to do something about it, I would recommend the Celtic Trust:
celtictrust .net
They’ve had a relaunch this year, concentrating on reuniting fans with lost shareholdings and improving communications.
An online meeting was held on Saturday attended by over 300 fans and a report is included on the website.
They’re also talking about setting up a £10pm subscription service in order to buy shares and increase fans’ voices, as part of a concerted block.
I assume this will be an optional extra, as otherwise it would rule out a lot of fans, who would like to be involved but wouldn’t want to spend that.
I’ve already got shares so would be interested in adding those to a fans block but not buying any more.
I believe they’ve had thousands joining up over the weekend but whether this momentum will be maintained or is simply a reflection of the malcontentism mood music of the moment, only time will tell.
They’re also talking ambitiously of 50,000 member subscribers, which equates to £6m per year and £30m over 5 years.
Whether this comes to pass who knows and anyone interested in finding out more should head over there.
Thanks for the reminder, I just voted by proxy via The Chairman, the only option.
It’s a simple online process using the info contained in the paperwork/email sent as notice of the AGM. Anyone who hasn’t voted yet may wish to do so now as time is fast running out.
Unfortunately the Board’s intention to bury Res 12, 2013 (now Res 11, 2020) looks unstoppable but Persistence beats Resistance!
HH
FC not PLC
duncy the donkey has forever harped on about it, i look forward to him posting his evidence that he is a signed up member
depends if lizzies pension will stretch that far
Such things like alternative models of ownership, 50+1 etc are just pie in the sky while the current owners don’t buy into it.
Having said that, the last time I looked Celtic was worth something like £150m, so you would need £75m+1 to vote in your favour to change structure.
Even by the CT’s own most optimistic projections that would take about 12½ years to reach, assuming there were willing sellers. Others could join the good fight but I believe the ‘Desmond block’ currently owns 75%.
Obviously influence comes with significant holding not just majority control. FFS Desmond only has about 30% of shares but everyone defers to him, as if he owns the whole bloody lot.
Trusts operate well in most clubs (ignore the Huns who, as always, are exceptional (exceptionally bad).
I’m also pleased to see that they’re not just single focussed on shareholdings and have already criticised da fence and demanded a meeting with the board, which I believe is scheduled for next week, to outline fans concerns.
As well as shareholding, I see the Trust as a campaign group, who can’t be fobbed off like other fan groups by the PLC, as they have a duty to them.
Bud, you should review the CT site and review their plans, as this seems to be what you’ve gone on about many times.
It might not be but surely worth a look.
They admit that comms wasn’t very good in the past and the pandemic hasn’t helped that.
They seem to be putting a lot of effort in at the moment but whether that will be maintained or simply capitalising on fans current disenchantment remains to be seen.
Club 1690 for gullible Tims.
Board controlled and a joke.
Mm.
If this is board controlled, then I’m not sure what anti-board looks like.
CT have been at the forefront of every progressive issue over the past 25 years.
You might be confusing them with those in the comfy seats like the Celtic Supporters Association and Affiliation of Registered Celtic Supporter Clubs who, as usual, are posted missing in these trying times.
Duncan has a good point here, Cha.
Without fan control it’s only the faces that change, with More Of The Same soup, and the can getting kicked further down the road for another 8 years so even more of us go senile and forget it.
Yes, fan ownership is the ultimate goal.
However, you need to factor in where we’re at the moment (engaged fans 2-3% based on votes for Res12 etc?) and what needs to be done (£75m+1 required for control), which will take time.
Also its not an all or nothing situation, a block with only a few % will have significantly more access than plebby individual shareholders like me who have precisely the square root of you know what.
As the % grows then so does the access and influence, which an intransigent board cannot refuse.
I cannot see any alternative on the horizon, so it’s either accept things as they are or try and see a, hopefully, realistic alternative.
I know what you’re both saying but it’ll take years to raise 75 m, giving them even more time to suck on the bones of the carcass of what was once our club.
There’s a much easier and more immediate solution that iv ébène saying all week:
Starve them out.
Not a penny more.
Full refunds on this season’s & last season’s tickets and no buying any Celtic merchandise from anywhere.
They’ll be gone by season’s end, I guarantee it.
We’ve totally c0cked it.
We did nothing in 2012 to kill the survival lie stone dead at its inception.
We did nothing about the fraudulent uefa license.
We did nothing about implementing financial fair play.
We’ve stood back and watched the new lot trample over rules and bringing the game into disrepute whilst they claim to be victims.
We now watch a technically “trading whilst insolvent” clumpany hand us our bottoms on a plate again.
I hate the people running our club for that.
Every single one of them should have been sat down in the summer and reminded whom they represent and how much they are paid to do so. They should all be running through brick walls this year of all years for the fans. The people who have paid to watch the cheating. The people ridiculed in the workplace by the advocates of cheating. The people who are asked what school they went to at job interviews.
This was it. This was the chance to sock it right to every one of the establishment dirt in this bigoted, backward, intolerant “best wee country in the world”.
I will never see this chance again in my lifetime. Shame on them all, from boardroom to dugout to some big headed chancers on the pitch. Shame on them.
Brilliant, absolutely brilliant comment MCG, I agree with both the written content and the clear and passionate emotion portrayed. WELL SAID and we need a helluvva lot more like you.
FC not PLC
Well put. There will be even more misery when they are allowed to ram 55 down our throats…. and the 150 years bullshit.
Why doesn’t Sutton or Hartson (just someone with a high profile)come out and say “This is a historic season with Celtic going for their 10 title in a row and rangers for their 1st title”.
Would love that to happen.
Very well said
There is something gravely amiss with the custodians of our Football Club.
One would think that their continuance of employment is just for pocket change for their finer halves shopping splurge.
What will be the next sellable cliche?
“A Club like no other, `cause no other club would do this.”
It is disgraceful. Nothing other than a disgrace.
What would you put on a banner outside the wire at Celtic Park?
“Santa has a Bar Hunbug subordinate clause with Peter Lawwell.”
Here we go 1IAR…
?
It just goes to show that the 3 were never a defenders backside.
In the name of The Manager, The Shrug and The Holy Reboot…
Sign an effin left winger in January.
Amen.
I noticed on another page that the supporters are blaming everyone but the players.
They must take equal responsibility for the shambles that has unfolded this season.
McGregor Brown fir instance giving away needless penalty kicks.
I watched in horror on Sunday at some of the passing and needless fouls given away and thought what the fuck are you doing.
One I remember out of many I think it was still 0_0 Bitton has the ball but decides not to go into the space but play a pass out wide left 20 yards away. Telegraphed but for the challenge by Christie would have led to a goal. Numerous simple passes ended up out for a shy.Players aren’t thinking for the team. All playing for themselves. Attitude has to change and they are hiding letting everyone else get the blame.
Worry is they are happy to do so.
Well sorry but you lot are as equal to or even more so to blame than Lenny the board or anyone else.
For I am sick to death of seeing you all pass the buck and not burst a gut for this team.
So stop fuckin hiding and man up you play for a cause not a football team. Or fuck off now and let the young players in to show you how its done.
Has he gone yet? (Wednesday)
He’ll only be gone once it’s certain to Peter & the SFA that the Huns have won the league, Cha.
When there’s no chance whatsoever that a new manger could turn it around.
In fact, don’t be surprised if he’s still there in May bleating about how he ‘did all he could’, like that scene in Goodfellas when the guys who blew Tommy’s head off told Jimmy the same thing.
’We did all we could. (In the best interests of The Company.)’
They’ll skip the last bit mind.
Sadly I suspect you’re correct.
We’ve lost 6, drawn 4 and won only 2 of our last 12 games and we’re going to review “progress” in January.
Does that mean we do better than lose 3, draw 2 and win 1 then we’ve made “progress” and he gets to keep the gig until the end of the season?
Aye, Cha.
But they ‘did all they could’.
“With six months to run on his Marseille contract, Villas-Boas has spoken of his next move being a “more exotic experience” like Japan or Brazil”
Does it come any more exotic than Scotland?
Well, there is our jungle.
One here for that loud mouthed culchie

The United States is sicker than ever.
The U.S. spends more than any other country on healthcare yet has more chronic health issues than any other country. Half of all adults in the U.S. have a chronic illness, and nearly half will eventually die of cancer. We are exposed to a cocktail of synthetic chemicals from birth: polluted air and water and processed food laced with pesticides, to which we add pharmaceutical drugs, including vaccines, into the mix.
Pharmaceutical drugs and vaccines contain multiple synthetic chemicals that should NEVER be put into the body. They are part of the reason we have skyrocketing chronic health issues that have somehow become the new “normal” in our society. But this is not normal. And science is clear: Most, if not all, of these health issues, can be linked to pharmaceutical treatments and drugs.
In fact, the health care system is now the leading cause of death in the U.S.’
You misplaced your trust, Broxburn, and it’ll fvck you right up if you’re not careful.
‘There are multiple toxic ingredients in vac c ines — some known to cause cancer and autoimmune disorders. These toxins create health issues that in turn create customers.’
‘Vac cines do not create immunity, they create customers.
It’s the best business model in the world.
It keeps people coming back for more – forever.’
