I was pleased Ronny Deila fronted up for the press conference yesterday. He didn’t say anything particularly revealing but it was reassuring that the pressure of the last week hasn’t seen him hide from searching questions.
Mention of clear the air talks at Lennoxtown was welcome. It lets us know that the fans are not the only ones who believe the ‘air’ hasn’t been right recently. It will also, hopefully, have given anyone harbouring a grievance to get it out.
One of the manager’s biggest decisions for Sunday is who to trust in midfield. He needs players who will respond to the circumstances, and who can open what will be a packed defence. Guys who have been over the ground before, who know how to dig deep in the face of adversity, are also required. For me that means a start for Kris Commons.

Tontine Tim,
It is common knowledge that Lawwell wanted Lenny out. Lenny also needed to escape Glasgow for his own good. A settlement was reached which included Lennys silence. When you consider what Lenny and his family went thru can you blame him for leaving ?

Yep I know you now, pity we didn’t get the chance for a chat.

Trust me, PL rules Celtic with an iron rod. The rest of the board simply adhere to his orders.
Though it’s worth noting that DD is obviously happy with how PL is operating.
==============================================================================
I do trust you.
I just think you`re mistaken
Do you think that some seriously high corporate fliers just ” take orders.”
Again.
Implausible.
D.D. I know nothing about.I get the impression that he`s the “absentee landlord.”
Then again, maybe he has earned that right.

Thanks for your interest, as you have visited the farm. You are welcome to all updates from the wee mhan. (He is a tim lamb). Hope you are well Jim and if I can sort you out again with tickets, will be my pleasure. HH

Dallas…..
He looks more like Bobby Ewing than JR
Winning Captains
Keep telling like it us, some fear the Alloa beaters……or maybe it interests them more
I pray that Ronny wins the double, this is the most important for me, funnily enough more for my Celtic supporting friends and family than the Kenny Miller & co mob

If the rest of the board have the power you believe why are they paid a pittance in relation to PL?
Nothing happens within Parkhead without his say so, good or bad.
I take it Forrest and Mc Gregor wont be anywhere near the dugout tomorrow?? H H

Glad to hear you’re well wee man.

Hamiltontim, I enjoyed the meeting even though no politics were mentioned. Lol.
Anyone who has preconceived ideas about the Trust ‘s motives would have been disappointed especially when the chairperson,Joe , said ‘ we don’t want a fan on the board’ .
I was unpleasantly surprised at the lack of influence ordinary fans with shares have which backs up your earlier post about Peter Lawwell’s ability manage the business as he does.
MacJay
If you believe that the board do whatever you believe they do, care to enlighten us as to what they actually do, other than attending board meetings and collecting their expenses, serious question, and it should be hard ?

Thanks for that. We are all well here as I hope, you, “H” and the ghirls are too. Looking forward to meeting you again at the next home league game. You are one of the good ghuys, as well you know. Lol. HH My Friend.
Dallas Dallas where the heck is Dallas,
Haven’t encountered Portadown fans in years.

In the 80s following Cliftonville, we came under a barrage of missiles on our way back from Shamrock Park. The good old RUC, armed to the teeth used us as human shields.
Anyway 2 Lurgan teams in the semis: Glenavon and Lurgan Celtic. Both from different ‘ends’ of the town if you get my drift

Gerry, I was in Coatbridge last night and this morning.
My wife’s pal’s sister passed away and we were at the body going into the church last night and the funeral this morning. It was at St Mary’s in Whifflet.
After the requiem mass, we had the misfortune to see a sev bus leaving from that Carson’s joint.
So,because the Huns beat Dundee 4 0 today,and we could only draw with them on Wednesday,according to some trumpets on here,that makes the Huns a great team,and us,crap.Infantile nonsense.The level of comment on here now is going from the hysterical to the fekin ridiculous.Do any of these idiots ever think about what they write?.
I see a few new names on now joining in the feeding frenzy.I am not the biggest fan of the manager,but WTF is he supposed to do,when he puts players onto the park and they play well,then the next game they look as if they have never seen a ball before.He puts his faith in them,and they let him down,week after week.The players need a good kick up the arse for their performances,just as the manager does,but the Prima Donnas get away with it.I will tell you whats worse than both this season.The so called”Fans”.Fans my arse.Spoilt,whingeing,brats.There are clubs all over Britain whos fans have never seen them win anything,yet they are there every week.Watch a Crystal Palace game and see what supporting your team really is.
TGFITW,aye right,only when we are winning,even then its not enough.

It certainly puts the sword to a certain posters constant posts about us wanting a CT member on the board, that would cause more hassle than being of any value.
We hear many cases of supporters and staff having issues with PL in particular, however, it wouldn’t be prudent or right to compromise them by divulging details on a public forum.
Ard Macha, the old RUC and their infamous neutrality
Hello again all you young rebels.
Well just read back a few pages and it really is tough going
at the moment but I’m off down the rebel peninsula the
wee mhan’s got the flag out the car window and i don’t need
to worry about meeting triumphant stickies down there.
Paddy if your lurkin get the guinness in :-))

Good Evening.
My latest examines the apparent hypocrisy of those who run out game…

Hamiltontim, it was an eye openet not seeing everyone there dressed as Wolfie from Citizen Smith and no Che Guevara t shirts on view.
You are right on your second point in your post at 10.37

================================================================
I don`t know.
Nor do I profess to know.
That`s the difference.
You claim to know.
Maybe ( if what you say is true ) it`s because he is the dogsbody and they are the directors.

Catch up soon mate.

You know the Palace fans based themselves on our very own Green Brigade?
HT,
Hope you are good
Re your comments on PL running the club.
You are right, but he does so at the behest of the board, which in reality is DD.
The rest of the board fall broadly IMHO, into two camps
1) Long standing members who like the blazer, the cash and the freebies (£25 k a year may not seem a lot, but for attending 5/6 board meetings & freebies to home & away games, is decent)
2) Serious big hitters like Ian Livingston, who realize the chances of changing anything are zilch, and disappear at first opportunity.
There are then a few others, who sit on the board of subsidiaries of the PlC , but are smart enough to realize DD runs the show, and beyond giving out a few player of the year trophies, their influence is zilch.
Unfortunately, much of current situation is of our own making, as DD ‘s + his cronies votes run the show , and ultimately he put up the cash when others didn’t.
Turkeybhoy
You post the most rubbish on this site. I ask you to repost where any poster said Sevco were a great team. If you can’t, I suggest you stop exaggerating and actually read the posts. It’s not a posters fault if you are misinterpreting them.
Dallas
Sorry to hear your good lady’s friends sister, St Mary’s is Lennybhoys domain, Carsons is the one boozer I have never entered in ML5, they used to be lucky to fill a Hackney to go to games, they must be confident these days………..
As you know I listen to Clyde (doing my ironing) Tony Roper was on it today and Slug Keevins asked him about missing the old firm games…… Tony replied “naw” Keevins was stumped, seemingly if you are a Celtic fan and miss those games you are a liar……unless you are Jamise Cotter

If Clashcitybhoy on 5th March 2016 10:44 pm
is correct , then maybe your odium should be directed at D.D.
and not P.L.
Turkeybhoy…why are you always so angry? Chill sir, you’ll feel better for it.
HT
:-))).
Dallas,
Indeed.
I read the testimony of the cop who’ shot dead unarmed IRA Volunteer Pearse Jordan.
He said he didn’t regret killing him, his only regret was the ceasefire.
This was supposedly a policeman serving the community, who missed the action.
The RUC was never a police service but rather a Unionist Paramilitary Force.
Recruited more people to the IRA than you can imagine.
Árd Macha
Neganon is right. The only way to change this Old Firm Corruption and Irish billionaire golfing aficionados hobby is to deprive them of their only life blood. Money. These days I offer morale support only. As for Tims who cant wait to play Glasgow Rangers again. Scum. Green huns. Hopefully tomorrow Celtic win avoid the huns in the draw and move on. Unless of course many CQN Green huns are paid a dying wage by PL as official Parkheed shite-scooper-uppers and plastic seat repairmen.
Melbourne Mick
For every negative post about Celtic, and these days some might be valid(ish) ….four points clear and going for a double aside………….
The wee mhans attitude keeps it Celtic for me
Enjoy your cold Guinness
Clashcity
All is good mate, hope you’re well.
I agree in part. PL does DD’s bidding but largely the rest of the board members are there as figureheads without any genuine clout regardless of which group they’re aligned to.
Oiche mhaith daoibh.

TheTimRieper is a greedy, lazy git at the CQN 5s each week but questioning his credentials is way off the mark. He goes home and away to watch Celtic.

*ok then but he sounded so hunnish in his praise of them the day.
Sid, timreaper reckons they are a good team and so do a few others on here.

Good night and God bless am away to listen to Pearse Jordan…….
