    There is only one new idea needed at the top. It is known as ambition.

     

     

    The fans are paying a heavy price for years of downsizing accompanied by the desire to just get by.

  2. What is the Stars on

    Lot of people advocating that we sell this player and that player. However who in their right mind would buy any of that lot

  3. Beamishismypint on

    All Tims will still be Tims tomorrow. Save the holier than though crap. Being more or less of a Tim has nothing to do with resenting being shafted (like adding apples and oranges).

     

     

    ronin fcuk off to syria, lots of other fantasists there that you can join up with.

    ronin,

     

    Yur no pissin me off turnip.

     

    Ah just luv tae shuv it right up puddocks like you.

     

    Away’n die in a corner some where.

     

    Hail Hailv

    What’s the chances of an unforseen ‘problem’ with Mubarak’s work permit and a ‘late bid’ from another club for the Serbian striker?

  6. *THE KING VIC 67* on

    Anyone else voting with their feet???

     

    I’m goin to cancel our 2 home cup schemes. Since I’ve already coughed up the £ for season tickets I can’t return them. Next season I will choose my games. No more blind faith…. It’s arguably killing the club

  7. lurgan57 – Lenny gets all the credit for building the team that beat Barca. All the credit. However he has to take some of the blame for tonight. Bar Berget and Gordon tonight they were players he signed. Players that failed regularly. You can’t take the credit and not take the lumps.

     

     

    Ronny however has wondorously managed to make them even more ineffective, which is a hell of a good trick

  8. Not only did we miss Sammi, we also missed The Broonie tonight.

     

    An outball down the left added to a real leader in midfield. Chico does not measure up in that regard.

    A certain we man from Lurgan was in charge when we beat Barcelona and got us to the group stage of Champions league and also in to the last 16 of the champions league

     

     

    *and then we were humiliated by Juve home and away…as MON once said we were punching above our weight.

    I’d rather we had a new owner and kept Peter Lawwell than get rid of Peter Lawwell and keep the same owner.

     

     

    The reality is nothing’s going to change.

     

     

    With the prospect of the new old firm gravy train arriving shortly the finacials will be secure enough.

    The queen was in the parlour,

     

    Eating bread and honey.

     

    The maid was in the garden,

     

    Hanging out the clothes,

     

    When down came a blackbird

     

    And pecked off her nose

  12. Don’t want to say a lot because it’s usually better to sleep on it but…

     

     

    Don’t understand why Kayak was taken off, one of our better players.

     

     

    On the other hand Mulgrew was shocking. Not good enough for Europe. Too slow of thought.

     

     

    Stokes cannot play up without support. That’s not his fault, it’s not Deila’s fault, it’s a ridiculous lack of resources. Had we went with VVD up front for the full game we’d have won it comfortably. We BETTER get a striker that can head the ball in or this season is a write off.

     

     

    Johansen is very hit or miss as well. Very wasteful.

  13. My first comment about Efe Ambrose (from what seems like years ago on here) was to compare him unfavourably with Olivier Tebily. Nothing has changed in the intervening times. A dreadful player.

     

     

    I’m also concerned that Deila will be our (admittedly small time) Le Guen.

     

     

    However, these concerns pale in the shadow of the real problem – the lack of an ethical and decent board. We’re Celtic in name only whilst Dermot Desmond and scum like ‘Lord’ Livingston are in power at Celtic.

  14. My concern is just how far we have slipped. My work colleagues fail to comprehendhow we are worse than the Legia and Maribors of the world. They do understand tthat we have the resources of a WBA or Leicester but are we using them properly?

  15. the glorious balance sheet on

    Ronny Deila – first Celtic manager ever to enter a new season without being given a penny in transfer fees to spend after ten weeks in the job.

     

     

    Anyone would think we were skint.

  16. Sack Ronnie and sack peter. If we cannot beat maribor with a 10 to 1 financial advantage for 40 % of our yearly income…This has happened before.

     

    We need to say this is who we are .

     

    We need to define ourselves. Tell me what I am supporting this is the first time that I have thought about selling my shares.

     

    If there is no answer from the club????

    We missed Brown right enough. But we still wouldn’t have had a cutting edge if was playing.

    I thought Chico had a good season under Lenny.

     

    What`s changed?

    Should have added that another part of the strategy has been a relentless drive to sanitise the support.

     

     

    This was to pander to the refined sensitivities of corporate sponsors.

     

     

    More of tonight and there won’t be too many of the prawn sandwich brigade to pander to.

  22. bournesouprecipe on

    That was the poorest European side I’ve seen win at Celtic Park.

     

     

    A bereft Celtic side ‘rested’ at the expense of the weekend league flop led the club to an embarrassing home defeat, and total ignominy.

     

     

    Quite a few stated the Legia fiasco and the resulting reinstatement was a bad thing, and who would now disagree. A blessing, that we will not be forced to buy into the Pot 4 molestings, where we were garanteed to play three sides better than us, the continuing collapse will be bad enough for the souls that brave a Europa package.

     

     

    Celtic started with only McGregor looking likely and that says it all since his arrival from English division three. Stokes on his on up front was meat and drink for a very ordinary Slovenian defence that couldn’t believe their luck, at how bad Celtic actually were, on their own pitch.

     

     

    Commons took over but his arrival and the first real goal threat soon faded, McGregor hit the bar, and Celtic threw forward the hapless Ambrose VVD and Lustig at corners, and suddenly inside the stadium you could feel the stakes rising, and Maribor sensed that any goal would knock Celtic out.

     

     

    Each substitution and change in ‘format’ thereafter went quite close to farcical by the end, where the confidence had drained out of the dizzy players that were switched about from position to position, as RD weaved his brand of magic.

     

     

    Comic cuts and Celtic couldn’t clear their lines from a routine cross and Maribor cashed in. If it wasn’t RD’s Celtic squad when he arrived it sure as hell is now, and it’s not looking very bright, as he’ll need to concentrate, harder on Inverness Dundee, Ross County et all to gain any credibility with the puzzled Celtic support.

     

     

    A truly depressing night at Celtic Park.

  23. Beamishismypint on

    the glorious balance sheet

     

     

    Only when fans withhold Pls pay will things change. Happy clappers will keep him in the style he is accustomed to.

    I’m a big Neil Lennon fan but some of the problems we face now and need fixed were created under Neil’s leadership. Too easy to quote that handcuffs were an issue if Neil can pick and choose.

     

     

    We re in transition. It hurts like hell tonight but we have to hold our nerve.

     

     

    Yes Wavey but where Lennon was forced to shop by Pisto Pete was the problem, while we have this board and Lawell in charge we can expect no better than what we witnessed tonight and BY GOD IT HURTS

  25. Haha let Ronin play in the big playground.

     

     

    When your diet is Airdrie and Clyde it must be nice to rub shoulders with the big boys on European nights.

    I think you’ve cracked it,mate.

     

     

    Sanitising the support.

     

     

    Mission accomplished if none of us turn up.
