  1. JAMES FORREST @ 8:24 PM,

     

     

    Yes, all of today’s madness can be traced back to the Hampden shower room.

     

     

    Lenny’s career needed rescuing from a dire situation, Celtic needed a steady hand on the tiller.

     

     

    So although I didn’t agree with it at the time, getting Lenny in was good for the Club and good for Lenny.

     

     

    If he went in May, he could have left with dignity and pride, a treble secured, and secured in some style made him very employable again.

     

     

    Celtic needed to appoint a manager and backroom team with a modern outlook who could build on the Rodgers’ legacy. They had the money, the set up was there – the team and Celtic environment just needed to be enhanced.

     

     

    The appointment was wrong, it has been bad for Celtic and it has been bad for Lenny and the decision makers couldn’t give a hoot!!

     

     

    Hail Hail

  2. I’m still in awe of the stupidity of Lawwell and Desmond in allowing the situation to get this bad. It’s been evident for weeks now there was no improvement and Lenny couldn’t turn the ship around.

     

     

    Our problems now go much deeper than Neil or the players. We need new people in our boardroom.

  3. “….according to his cousin Nigel…..”

     

    That has got to be up there with according to “Owen Coyle’s Auntie in Donegal”….

     

    or was it his Granny?

  4. F.B. 8.40.

     

    It does and the behaviour, of some, was poor, at best.

     

    I just don’t buy into our fans are all wonderful, I’ve been beside so many rockets, throughout the years.

     

    They probably said that about me, too.

  5. lets all do the huddle on

    LETS ALL DO THE HUDDLE on 29TH NOVEMBER 2020 8:17 PM

     

     

    What about the supporters, who’ve fallen into line, during an eight year long tsunami of information, highlighting Celtic PLC corruption/collusion, to cover up David Murray’s corruption?

     

     

     

    yes

     

     

    there is something in that

     

     

    but the supporters arent earning money from it

     

     

    we are the ones spending the money to support our team as we have been doing long before these players, coaches or board members were here

     

     

    and will still be supporting the club long after they are all gone

  6. Celtic will or won’t sack Neil Lennon till tomorrow morning,when the Stock Market Opens,Neil Shoulders a lot of blame for the way the players been playing on the Park,He has came out a few times and slaughtered some players for not wanting to be at the club,in front of the media,that should have been kept in-house,also there is another player at the club with personal problems,overweight and to my mind he is another one that needs to get the bullet in January,so there are all s of problems inside Celtic Park,and to me the only thing to do is a clear out off players who really don’t want to play for Celtic ,as for the present coaches and manager it’s all over .Them young yin’s protesters outside the stadium are venting there anger at the way the club is being run,and I don’t believe they attacked the Police vans.

  7. Can’t begin to comprehend how any so called Celtic supporters could abuse Neil Lennon after what he has done for us. I agree he has to go as manager but he should be allowed to leave with dignity and the greatest respect.

  8. Big Wavy

     

     

    Not sure it is recommended parenting advice to give the kids a free hand, without guidance or example. Mind you, most of those on video are too old to be called kids, even by me.

     

     

     

    Canamalar,

     

     

    I am fairly sure there will be a few hunterlopers along to record events at CP, but, even if one of them started a chant of Lennnon GTF, they cannot force others to join in. The majority of people there are Celtic fans and they are chanting this- they have to own it- yes they are young men, mostly and we all di wrong things when we were young, and when we awere middle aged, and even when we were/are old. Unless, you are very young, age is not an excuse- you are still responsible for the way you conduct yourself. FWIW- They do not represent my version of Celtic but they are as entitled as I am to define how it is seen in the future. Ultras in Europe have been doing this for years to players and managers representing the teams they purport to love. It’s a growing fashion in these shores too- bet the security costs for Lennoxtown will increase npw.

     

     

     

    James Forrest- There is absolutely no way that a plyer, coach or Board Member should be addressing that crowd tonight. They’d be lucky to get one word out before they were batttered. If a mob like that came onto your blog, you would not be out there using rational dialogu to calm or persuade them; they did not come to be calmed. They achieved their purpose and they have left no-one in any doubt as to the views they represent- but…. demanding that somebody talk to them……Naw! If Jock Stein had seen that tonight he’d have been arrested after wading into them.

     

     

    When the inevitable happens, and Neil goes, they can pat themselves and each other on the back that they “made it happen” but they cannot demand that I appreciate what they did.

    Yeah, weak as well, just like the season ticket holders.

  10. Lennon CAN still leave with dignity and the greatest of respect.

     

     

    Or he can cling to it like Trump trying to dig his fingernails into the Resolute Desk.

     

     

    The board gave him his contract, the least they can do is tell him they’ll honour the terms of it and give him the chance to go with everyone’s best wishes.

     

     

    They shouldn’t make him beg for it or fight them for it … but if they do offer it and he doesn’t accept it then he’s putting what’s left of his reputation in grave peril.

    Well, at least the loons in the Celtic support who think the SNP and independence is a good idea are witnessing Scoddland rejoice in our demise.

     

     

    A bunch of beds at Celtic Park is headline news.

    Utterly disgraceful scenes outside of Celtic Park from a minority of fans tonight with violence aimed towards Police. Officers have been front & centre keeping us safe during this pandemic, to treat them this way at any time is shameful, to do it during these times is a disgrace.

    Ronny Deila had the right ideas on fitness , training and professionalism but perhaps lacked the personality for the job , whereas Brendan Rodgers had both. What we need is a manager who embodies the qualities of a modern day coach . What we also need is a CEO who will not interfere in any way with the work of the coach in building a modern , professional and well focused football operation.

  14. SETTING FREE THE BEARS FOR RES. 12 & OSCAR KNOX:

     

     

    I never suggested for one minute that they go out and face the mob. That would require the backbone and the respect for our fans which they haven’t shown up until now.

     

     

    What I can expect, what I hope for, is that they will realise the gig is up, that the next protest WILL be in the thousands and the one after that will involve not renewing season tickets.

     

     

    They have to get the manager into a wee room and say to him, “You know this is over, right? So here’s your money, here’s what we owe you and a cherry on top, and you have the opportunity to tell the press and the fans that you took this decision on your own.”

     

     

    All of us will respect him for it, and wish him well. If he chooses to make it harder than it has to be, then he’ll be sacked and it’ll be the last major job he has as a manager.

     

     

    The board’s on role in it cannot be ignored though, and they owe us all BIG TIME in who comes in next, and even then I think we’re entitled to hold this one against them forevermore. Because in the biggest decision they have ever had to take, they opted for the cheap appointment and a guy they could control, to the detriment of this whole club and this historic quest.

     

     

    They do not emerge from that with their reputations or legacies intact.

    That’s not them on the park playing.

  16. Klopp wouldn’t win the league with either of those two keepers!!!…. Good keepers earn you 10 – 12 points a season…… They glow in confidence this glow spreads through the defence……

  17. Maybe Neil has been given his years notice,

     

    that would explain why he doesnt resign and why Paul67 thinks worse was still to come

  18. MARTIM1980 on 29TH NOVEMBER 2020 7:54 PM

     

     

    Fans of many successful clubs can tend to get complacent but it’s a different kind of complacency that irks me.

     

     

    We’ve been laughing at Sevco for years & encouraged by the board while they knowingly let the 5 Way Agreement allow them to keep trophies that they didn’t win.

     

    We were told by the CEO that Celtic didn’t need Sevco to succeed but in private amongst themselves the Board knew they needed Rangers to survive financially. Being cute with their public message gave them the deniability that only a courtroom lawyer could present with a straight face…or perhaps an experienced CEO.

     

    As Sevco struggled to find directors that weren’t cowboys & managers that weren’t pretenders, we racked up league titles & kept chanting about the 10. The board obstructed attempts by fans to push Resolution 12 because they knew that it undermined their private view that Sevco had to survive & so any challenge to the 5 Way had to be rejected.

     

     

    The board’s insincerity & lack of transparency seemed to succeed & that success led to complacency IMHO.

     

     

    That complacency infected decisions made by the board: they failed to support Deila in his attempts to drag the football department into the 21st century, they only recruited the man who would do that after the principal shareholder was humiliated by Sevco directors at Hampden & the same complacency led them to drop their support for Rodgers when they thought his ambitions outstripped theirs. Recruiting Neil permanently is part of the same strategy of complacency – doing the minimum to be topdog in Scotland.

     

    That is the sum of their ambitions & so they’ve been just like the players of late – playing within themselves in the happy knowledge that they wont have to carry the can if it goes wrong.

     

     

    If managers succeed – the board claim the credit for the appointment.

     

    If managers fail – the board shunt blame onto the ex manager & claim the high ground with a new appointment.

     

     

    Complacency is a virus & it’s been contaminating many at Celtic for years.

    The board can either sack him or not sack him. It’s binary. If they sack him he’ll get what he’s contractually due, possibly a year’s wages. If he resigns he’ll get nothing.

     

     

    I know what I’d do in his situation.

  20. !!BADA BING!! on 29TH NOVEMBER 2020 8:58 PM

     

    Always get new posters,on days like these…

     

    …………

     

    Strange that 🤔

  21. Canamalar it looks like OCD obsession on

    Fairhill..,

     

    I heard this guy talk

     

    https://electroverse.net/youtube-delete-dr-hodkinson-audio-in-telling-act-of-censorship/

     

    No sure where or if you want to hear him but he has the credentials.

     

     

    I have not said the infection is not serious but I am reassessing who it is serious for, we were told at the start it was most serious for older people and those with chronic illness. Not long after that, the authorities all over the western world made sure the most threatened were put in the front line. Care homes, retirement homes and chronic wards were filled with infected patients.

     

     

    We were told the infection originated in China, some claims identified the Chinese withheld information going back to October 2019 when they told us it first surfaced, more recently, studies have identified deaths in Italy and the US as far back as September 2019 can be attributed to Covid and not the declared flu.

     

    The mortality rate is now lower than previous recent flu mortality rates. And I believe the flu is a very dangerous infection.

     

    I am not underplaying the danger to people who have underlying health problems but I’m not overstating the danger to healthy people which is what is being advocated.

     

    Had those originally highlighted as most at risk been protected rather than targeted the numbers would not be what they are.

     

    I suggest you go look for the guy identified and make up I your own mind rather than blindly follow MSM, you should know better.

  22. ERNIE LYNCH:

     

     

    And I’m sure those are the options that will be put to him.

     

     

    You know fella, for years now I’ve read you attack our board on the grounds that they would sabotage this quest before it was completed, because you said that they were fully aware what the consequences would be across the road if we achieved the goal.

     

     

    I still don’t believe this is a deliberate sabotage. I think it’s just stinking bad management, complacency, lack of strategic vision and a bunch of other stuff.

     

     

    In the end, it doesn’t really matter because the result will be the same either way; a weakened Celtic and a club at Ibrox calling itself Rangers, in a position to challenge us which might even dig them out of the shit they are in to a certain extent.

     

     

    How long that challenge lasts will depend on how much they over-reach; I think they’ll go too far becasue it’s in the DNA now over there, but again that will not alter the trajectory of the next X number of years.

     

     

    Whether by accident or design, we are now in serious danger of being right at that line where 2012 might as well never have happened, and I can no longer say, securely, for certain, that you are wrong. I don’t believe your theory is correct … but I’m not ready to dismiss it either any longer.

     

     

    That’s the measure of how serious this is.
