    Tontine Tim

     

     

    I very vocally called out Neil Lennon’s lack of conditioning that night in 2002 (post on it tonight). Went a long way to us losing the tie. I was in a CSC in England and as usual i was put down for slagging a Irish player.

     

     

    I made many points that season that MON tactics and formation were going to lose us the league due to us letting a cretin of a manger out fox us in OF games.

     

     

    I loved the UEFA run as much as anyone but could see us losing the league (cups are random)

     

     

    Half of that CSC agreed we needed to go 4-4-2 vs Huns and in Seville

     

     

    No-one called for MON to go but we saw his limits. Others saw his place of birth

     

     

    I did call for him to step back or delegate to his team when his wife got ill In 2004 for their benefit and Celtic’s. Same as in any business (not unusual)

     

     

    I had to defend myself physically that night and leave the club for a while

     

     

    It is not personal . If people ,who don’t work in a a profession but claim they are professionals due to high wages , want to be treated as professionals then they need to meet KPIs and behavioural competencies. As such, if they fail they lose the bonuses then they lose the job if they don’t improve

     

     

    Neil Lennon met his KPI in his temp job to finish the treble

     

     

    He was then In his probation period. He won the league cup and should get credit for gather league

     

     

    All great and on we go to success

     

     

    Now he has a team without vigour , no tactics and apparently don’t want to be there

     

     

    Was all clear in pre season

     

     

    What happened?

     

     

    He is on performance measures at the very least. All very sad

  3. lazydynamite on

    So who are the players that ‘don’t want to be here’????….apart from a couple of obvious ones that rarely play these days I am really struggling.

     

    Any guesses?

  4. 31003 on

    I’ll guess at Ajer, Christie, Dembele and possibly Julliene. I don’t think this league suits him

  7. An Dún on

    At the moment – I think we would be better off out of europe like 2005. Focus on the league and the rebuild and come back stronger.

     

     

    We reached the CL last 16 twice in the two years after Artmedia Bratislava.

     

     

    P67 can lament the loss of income but having millions to get pumped out like tonight makes no difference to me as a supporter.

     

     

    All eyes now on the league – they’ll fancy their chances after that amateur showing tonight.

  8. Neustadt-Braw on

    Drambowie……your more than welcome …..hope you and yours are doimg brawily..

     

     

    smiley AOW getting my TUV next Thursday thing

     

     

    thanks for your thoughts….

     

     

    Braw

     

     

    TUV is like a UK MOT …

  10. !!Bada Bing!! on

    ‘We had enough chances to win the game comfortably…’

     

     

    Neil Lennon

     

     

    Seriously?

  12. lazydynamite on

    Ajer…would explain his recent benching.

     

    Christie… has showed nothing but 100% effort every time Ive watched him this season.

     

    Dembele …can do what he likes really .Not really a factor in the team yet and if he wants to go, fine

     

    Juliene..has been really poor this season..strangely poor so perhaps.

     

     

    I hope to god we are not talking about French Eddy and tonights ‘injury’ was not of the ‘grifiths calf strain’ type.

  13. porridgeandbananas on

    Lawwel should be on the phone to Martin O’Neill first thing in the morning and get Lennon out the door immediately.

     

     

    In no way whatsoever should we lose 3 knockout ties in 12 months at home to Cluj, Copenhagen and Ferencvaros – losing 9 goals in the process. That there is reason enough to punt him but his post match comments tonight is even more reason.

     

     

    In losing tonight then I’d think it highly likely Edouard is away. The loss of potential CL money added to the loss of revenue as a result of Covid means we probably have to sell him, which will make getting the 10 even harder.

     

     

    We cant afford to wait until it may be too late.

    !!BADA BING!! on 27TH AUGUST 2020 12:39 AM

     

    ‘We had enough chances to win the game comfortably…’

     

     

     

     

    Neil Lennon

     

     

    Seriously?

     

    ———-

     

     

    The problem is we need to score 4 or 5 with our lack of defensive set up. They could have hit us a couple of times on the break during the fist half. We were set up like amateurs tonight.

  19. lazydynamite on

    Not a chance MON would step in after Neil Lennon.

     

    I doubt Strachan would either.

     

     

    It wont happen but if Lennon was sacked we would be back to the drawing board.

     

    Safest pair of hands currently would be the current scotland manager but it is hardly sex appeal.

  20. !!Bada Bing!! on

    new low in European football tonight for Celtic, they knew our backline was suspect,a few times in the first half when we were fking about at the back, they had 6 players within 35 yards of our goals,primitive stuff ,and predictable unfortunately.

    ‘We had enough chances to win the game comfortably…’

     

     

     

    Neil Lennon

     

     

     

    Seriously?

     

    ………………………..

     

     

    Seriously we did. It’s fitba. In the first half no shooting boots (yes not striker Neil)

     

    in the second after only one on target first, we scored, we hit the bar, we had an onside goal chalked off and missed a few others. We had enough chances.

     

     

    They had two shots on target.

     

     

    We lost

     

     

    It’s how you react to defeat that marks out winners.

     

     

    Out of condition corner bhoy Neil is a winner not a loser.

  22. lazydynamite on

    What concerns me is that we appear to be completely suspect against low level organised european 3/4 seed style teams…which is exactly what the team at the other side of the city are.

  23. westcraigs on

    “blunder bhoys in shock exit” headline.

     

    no shock to me.

     

    sevco would have dealt with this team tonight.

     

    it is likely that sevco will once again get further in europe this season.

     

    we have an almighty challenge to win 10 in a row when it should be a formality.

  24. Canamalar it looks like OCD obsession on

    Braw..,

     

    I’m thinking CQN theme tune after a defeat, the mayhem and panic just sends that tune through ma heed.

     

    😀

  26. 31003 on

    We desperately need a solid no nonsense centre back, a pacy left/wing back, a midfield enforcer and a bull of a centre forward. Whatever monies we get from sales should be used to buy exactly that

  27. SydneyTim on

    Lazy dynamite Your correct

     

     

    The two games v Sevco in December , we were Awefull in both. Truely awfull , we only won cup because we had a goalie. This year we don’t

     

     

    We changed after Xmas. Went with two up front and rest was history

  29. lazydynamite on

    Anyway imagine how shitty it would be playing champions league games at an empty or 20% full celtic park?.

     

     

    I’m clutching at straws I know but it would be shitty.

  30. geebee1978 on

    SYDNEYTIM

     

     

    We certainly did improve after Christmas but that was going 3-5-2 with a fit Griff. However, let’s not ignore the fact that Rangers absolutely fell off the cliff in the New Year.

     

     

    It’d be a dangerous strategy to assume they’ll do that again this season.

  31. Larkin1907 on

    Lazy

     

     

    Defeats are always a concern and if you see a pattern even more so.

     

    Gerrard has built a Brendan style possession based team that has more quality than last year and if that was not a concern before then peeps were sleeping,

     

    Their first 11 can match us but we have greater (by far) depth in squad.

     

    I share many other concerns but this is so early in the season and there’s obviously going to be lots more ins and outs (if we take Neil at his word) before even more ups and downs. Hopefully more ups than downs.

     

    Tonight was a real downer.

    SYDNEYTIM on 27TH AUGUST 2020 12:57 AM

     

     

    Thanks Sydney.

     

    Been posting all night and you are the first person to exchange with me .

     

    It can be frustrating being a celtic fan sometimes …lol

    LARKIN1907 on 27TH AUGUST 2020 1:02 AM

     

     

    I agree..to dismiss them after watching us tonight would be utter madness.

     

    The superiority complex some of us have had is about to come crashing down.

     

    Skin of our teeth or skate of our pants is a far more likely route to 10 in a row this year.

     

    We simply are not that good anymore…but thankfully for us neither are they still.

  35. SydneyTim on

    Geebee1978

     

     

    Unfortunately that is Peter lawells strategy

     

     

    We have had virtually no competition domestically

     

    But in Europe failed again and again against teams on a fraction of our income

     

     

    Sevco just have to get it right one season

  38. lazydynamite on

    10 in a row would be great.

     

    But against a backdrop of being dumped out of the champions league at the second qualifying round by a hungarian team at celtic park with a fraction of our budget?…….hmmm

     

    Hardly the stuff of folklore is it.

     

     

    That’s why tonights result and performance has kind of ruined everything for me.

     

    I need some form of respectability in europe from celtic before I declare our players club legends or history makers.

     

    I don’t expect us to to be winning European trophies of course.

     

    But taking part would be nice now and then.

     

    If I had my way I would not pay that useless mob tonight their wages and I include the manager in that.

     

    A few wins over St Johnstone and Motherwell will not change that.

     

    They let the shirt down badly tonight.

     

    They let the fans down.They destroyed our dreams.

  41. Aipple on

    Lazydynamite

     

     

    It wasn’t the team. Was the manager and his setup.

     

     

    Last week Neil said this “ It’s given us a bit of breathing space but I’m happy with the squad.”

     

     

    Why changed in a week?

     

     

    If he hadn’t lost the dressing room he most likely has now.
