  1. Not one of our recent signings is fit for purpose. If GT was the best man on the pitch that tells you how poor we are. Passing is poor. Defence is pathetic. Hart punching the ball when it’s easier to catch it. Scales beating 2 or 3 players and unable to pass to one of our players 8 yards away. McGregor spreading panic throughout the team by hoofing the ball anywhere when under no pressure. The list goes on and on. I don’t know how we can turn this downward trend around. What players do we have to come in

  2. CALL ME GERRY on 17TH FEBRUARY 2024 5:20 PM

     

     

    Agree on Hart. Ironically, I wanted an upgrade on him in the summer but seems to be the only player (other than maybe Scales) to have actually improved this season.

  3. Biggest concern for me was McGregor standing in acres of Space kicking the ball straight up in the air in sheer panic. Thats our captain,, utter panic.

     

     

    No bottle

  4. rangers wingers and full backs deliver the ball into the box from multiple angles – their forwards and midfielders seem to be on plan. Meanwhile, Kyogo and Idah dont know if the ball is coming in or going back (90% its going back) – why commit runs. We are not playing to our strengths.

     

     

    It hurts but we have no chance of this league , NO CHANCE – unless we take drastic action now. Nothing to lose!

  5. Brendan has to go!

     

     

    If you can’t beat SPFL teams with the squad he has, you’re not a very good manager.

     

     

    Board not blameless, but there should be enough in that squad to beat Kilmarnock at home.

     

     

    Football has been dire all season too.

     

     

    Enough is enough.

     

     

    Dragging their feet over this decision could lost the league to a bang average hun team and the finances that go with it.

  6. its painful watching guys wearing a Celtic jersey with absolutely no authority, assertiveness – where are our leaders. We are too nice and its sickening to watch!

  7. The Blogger Formerly Known As GM on

    The playbook for an opposition manager is simple: try to keep it tight until our subs, then press aggressively.

     

     

    The manager should not be bringing on those players in tight games. It’s as simple as that.

  8. No point in dissecting this performance

     

    I want to hear what Brendan and the team are going to do to improve the crap presently being provided…..without the usual claptrap like…”we’ll learn from this” and other pish

  9. How stupid must you be to think removing the manager is the answer? Our squad has regressed at a frightening rate. The new manager has to then get miracles from what’s now basically reserves and projects. Good luck with that. It isn’t 2 crap transfer windows it’s 4, we were regressing in Ange last year too. Coincidentally, aye right, since Lawwell double act was in play. The thing with having appalling recruitment is its accumulating and having 4 in a row, leaves you trophy less, just as I predicted thus would unravel. This is our blessing in disguise because our strategy is horrendous and our board have failed spectacularly. It’s 60M negligence, now it’s upto the sensible one’s to recognise the correct target that requires change. Personally I’d change both but expecting any manager to be successful with what we now have left is crazy. Of course some of us predicted it coming long before it manifested, unlike the board apologists on here who are thankfully not the 90% fans who have their sights set on the correct target.

  10. PeterLatchfordsBelly on

    Killie had 13 shots today. We had 15. The had more shots on target than us (6 to 5).

     

     

    Ours is a team of utter dross. A year ago we could pick from players like Juranovic, Giakoumakis, Jota, Mooy, Starfelt, Hatate and CCV.

     

     

    What a number Peter Lawwell and Rodgers have done to destroy what Ange built, ably assisted by Lawwell Jr playing football manager for rookies.

     

     

    Yang, Bernabei, Scales, Ralston, Welsh, Bernardo, Kwon, Kuhn, Tillio, Lagerbielke, Nawrocki, Oh, Kobayashi, Siegrist, Bain, McCarthy, Mikey J, Holm, iwata. All non-contributors, all gash.

     

     

    Fat Peter has gift wrapped it for the huns from a titanic position of strength. Yet again. In the name of ‘the model’. Cui bono? It turns out Exec pay is failure-proof’.

     

     

    Time to stop buying P67’s his snake oil.

     

     

    Also time up for Rodgers.

     

     

    Get ready for ‘56’ Board plants and happy clappers. 👏👏👏

  11. We’re expecting the Celtic manager to put out a team to beat Killie, you really think we don’t have the players to do that?

  12. Scales, Bernabie, Welsh should be nowhere near our team sheet. We’ve spent £8 million on CBs and Welsh and Scales are starting. A disaster of a transfer window.

     

     

    Apparently Mark Lawwell is working his notice, why ? Get him out now.

    Kills those pesky ads……if only we had a similar thing for our team……

     

     

    Lol BR asking the board to be brave in the transfer market

  14. Not good enough, a 7 point lead thrown away, League gifted to an ordinary Ibrox outfit. 19 games won from 26 not good enough for the richest club in a very poor league.

     

    Recruitment rubbish, depth of the squad is limited, The board ,manager and coaching staff have all got to take responsibility.

     

    some will say we can still salvage things, but they’re kidding themselves on, The other mob can only throw it away. and they won’t.

  15. PETERLATCHFORDSBELLY

     

     

    To be fair, we can still get to the CL even if we finish second although we’ll have to play some hazardous qualifiers.

     

     

    Could you see this team beating PSV, for example?

  16. That popping sound you heard was the sound of P67s tongue being withdrawn from PLs butthole!

     

     

    Mind you, it might have been Burnley78s.

     

     

    Either way it was probably a game too late.

     

    😡

  17. The blame the manager brigade out in force tonight and taking the easy option and blaming the manager.

     

     

    When I found out Peter Lawwell was coming back I knew it would be a downward spiral. Why do you think DD brought him back, he’s a money man and draining the life out of our club to keep the life support going for Sevco.

     

     

    How can you motivate a team full of shi*e.

     

     

    Midfield disjointed, qualify is nowhere to be seen, we needed two quality players in we got Idah and Kuhn, absolutely honking.

     

     

    Lawwell & DD go and take the family members with you, hang your heads in shame. You know Sevco are struggling money wise and you’ve handed them a lifeline like you did in 2012 and screwed your own fans over.

     

     

    Nothing but rats the lot of you, what you’ve done to this club since Ange left is a sackable offence.

     

     

    Get tae Fu** everyone of you, your time is up.

  18. Celtic are a shambles

     

     

    Desmond, Lawwell, Lawwell time to exit.

     

     

    No point in appointing any managers if you buy him duds and have £100M in cash — why is the cash being hoarded. Can you explain that to the shareholders and the supporters.

     

     

    What is Mr Invisible , Michael Nicholson doing to justify his £800k salary.

     

     

    poorest Celtic team sine Ronny Delia time — but his team would beat the current lot.

     

     

    Fans totally disillusioned as they seen this coming but the arrogance of Lawwell and his hatred off the manger meant no quality players came in.

     

     

    Huns will go for the jugular with the Cl money whilst we will sell any asset we have.

     

     

    Cheapskate Fc.

  19. Take Taylor off and we lose an outball and a lot of space for others.

     

     

    This was a mistake as from that moment on we completely failed to play through the press. Fans then get edgy and played get edgy and No surprise at the outcome.

     

     

    We should have been out of sight before then though.

     

     

    Beaton Masterclass today though. MOM for sure.

     

     

    Credit to McInnes also.

    Never been near Celtic park the pair of you.

     

     

    You still have to beat st Johnstone to even be top for now.

     

     

    Classic follow follow haters of Peter Lawwell because he has dominated your lot for 20 years.

  21. glendalystonsils on

    Our problems run much deeper than not having CCV and Hatate on the park . The team either can’t do what the manager wants or they have no idea what the manager wants .

     

    Our huge financial advantage might as well have disappeared along with the decent points advantage we once had .

     

    The hole we are in is too deep to climb out of overnight . It’s almost as if forces were at work to pave the way for a rejuvenated Sevco .

  22. we cant play a 4-2-4

     

     

    Which is what we played today

     

     

    especially when the top 4 cant get a kick of the ball as the middle 2 are swamped (and one of them has cramp in his arm from pointing all over the pitch)

     

     

    Joe hart had 2 saves that kept us in the game

     

     

    At home

     

     

    Against a bang average killie

     

     

    Leadership at the top level of the team (never mind the directors) is wrong

     

     

    We must move BR on and get in someone who can help us get the team playing

     

     

    I never want to see a celtic manager sacked

     

     

    But I think its time

     

     

    Its been weeks and weeks of rotten football

     

     

    Just change it up

  23. 67 European Cup Winners on

    Paul67 on Monday will let Brendan have it

     

    But there is more to this saga than 2 poor transfer windows and dropped points

     

     

    Brendan went the first time (IMHO) because Lawwell restricted his influence on buying players

     

    Lawwell may have been right perhaps BR was not as good at spotting a player as he thought he was

     

    Brendan could not work with PL (We have enough wingers)

     

    We can argue who is right wrong in this little pantomime

     

    Either way Brendan went. Lawwell remained

     

     

    Fast Forward BRs return

     

    So have BR and PL had a Pow Wow and sorted out there differences

     

    The evidence suggests they have not

     

    Why did Peter not tell Desmond I have a problem with BR and he should not return

     

    Probably because he does not have the guts

     

    So PL lets BR return and shafts him from the inside (at Celtics expense)

     

    With Paul67 voicing some heavy stuff in BRs direction it would seem PL is looking to down our Manager – Again

     

    PLs work to minimise BRs squad means Celtic suffer while PL wins the political duel yet again he gets rid of BR

     

    PLs political victory has cost Celtic the league

     

    PL will tell DD that Celtic have the best squad in Scotland and BR cant get them to play

     

    As long as that little internal battle continues …..

     

    DD and Son are not doing their job

     

    PL and son are cementing a political empires at Celtic (at our expense)

     

    And the Huns win the league

     

    It’s a pathetic state of affairs

     

     

    At this point its either Lawwell or Brendan

     

     

    Big job DD but someone has to do it

     

     

    We are a shambles

     

     

    All of the above just my opinion written with a heavy heart

  24. The Blogger Formerly Known As GM on

    Palma was hooked at half time for Yang.

     

     

    It would have been the other way round if Yang had started.

     

     

    Kind of sums it up.

     

     

    On another note, this is going to be soooooo expensive to fix.

     

     

    The manager is on a 3 year contract and all the dross have years left on their contracts.

     

     

    Paying out the manager’s contract will cost more than we’re prepared to pay for a player!!

  25. Brilliant Brendan, I would throw them under the bus they are rank and I’d love it if you roast this board.

    “Dragging their feet over this decision could lost the league to a bang average hun team and the finances that go with it.”

     

     

     

    Perhaps that’s the plan, it looked like at one stage that one of the defenders was going to shank one into the net just to get it over with.
