worst xmas and new year coming for many a year :( looking fwd to be told its only a game, grow up….
if only i liked other sports too like rugby or golf – maybe get some joy from that…
There is not a single Celtic fan that hates the board more than they love the team. Remember when we could go toe to toe with any team in Europe? Remember when Bayern Munich celebrated a draw at Celtic Park?
The people running the club have decided that crumbs from the Sky TV table are more important than building a team to compete on the big stage. That is why we are where we are now. Their only plan is to rinse loyal Celtic fans for season ticket money and ‘reward’ us with being just ahead of the huns. We need to allow them a league title every few years though
The long wait is over.
Incompetence everywhere — not even funding the women’s team and now banning women’s fan media.
Nicholson is one useless CEO and I have come across many good ones to know.
That is on the bonus thief Lawwell.
Brendan will be looking at his bumper new contract tonight and reading about Peter’s exit and our 4th defeat on the bounce.
Wonder if he’ll feel vindicated?
Its a funny ol’ game, Sainty
We are so far off it just now, with so many changes at the club
Its hard to see how things can improve
Hard to see where the chink of light will hit
The players look shot
nancy’s interview after the game, he looked shot
How much lower do we sink before we start to improve
Glenowen
tho god help BR if he gets on the wrong side of some of his new bosses !!!!
Someone should give Nancy a lucky Horseshoe.
Chants of Nancy GTF were disgusting and shameful…..that’s not supporting a team ….he didn’t miss the clear cut chances and at least he has us mostly going forward.
Lead up to 2nd goal was offside ….nothing given.
The lack of intensity 2nd half has been happening all season.
This is not on Nancy.
How many of you were chanting ‘Strachan gtf’ by the way?
SPIKEYS
‘looking fwd to be told its only a game, grow up….’
=========
It’s sonly a game, grow up ! 😂
quadro :)
The shouts for MON and WN GTF are extremely poor and we should be better than that.
Sack the board however I’m sorry but I’ve no issue with that. Three Celtic directors that claim to love the club released damning statements today about some fan reaction that they don’t care for. On the day of a very important match they chose once again to blame and go after fans – how’s that for unity, how’s that for all in it together – no not them, it’s all about them and how they feel and how people don’t love Celtic as much as they do and how other don’t know anything and we are the wisest people in the room and if your not with us your an aggressive bully – what absolute BS. On the day of a game???
And wow how quick are truth defenders on to tell us how bad the fans are but have little or nothing to say about the spectacular own goals our exec is responsible for this year? Someone earlier wrote about Tisdale and his career in football – it is mind blowing that this guy works for Celtic. He shouldn’t even be putting cones out but he is head of football at Celtic – wtf is going in that this guy gets a gig with us, who is responsible for that? We’ll never know cause no one talks to us unless it’s to reprimand us for not being celticy enough and to let the big boys get on with running Celtic without being questioned by the plamfs…..
Desperately sad times for our club. The poor manger is out of his depth and it would be cruel to leave him in position. The board have let every aspect of the club down. Even a small minority of the fans have let the club down. Breaks my heart to think the only solution is to starve the club of funds – but I doubt there is any alternative to force change. We enjoyed decades of superiority in Scotland. That time is over.
To all the entitled wee tubes that were doing their best to trash the fragile confidence of the team well done. You achieved your aim. Hope you enjoy your trip home fantasising that ANY manager worth his salt will touch us with a bargepole now.
Mmmmmm this is getting a bit annoying now – I reckon DDs statement when BR left might have put paid to that not to mention the three statements today.
I don’t agree with the chants but glass houses and all that
yep – the generation of abomination well and truly under way :(
Sad, sad, sad day for Celtic Football Club and our supporters
Think the big guy is suffering badly from the BR’s objections and pain over summer, a centre forward of the required quality would have seen Celtic 3-0 at half time, easy to say, but achievable, as we know it should have been.The squad shuffled into a new system, and a guy from another league, another culture, another world is struggling to the extent he may be gone soon, I really hope not, don’t care if we win lose or draw, and GTF is another rubicon crossed.
Jim Goodwin Celtic fan, was almost apologetic at the end after he’d suckered the big guy who has no one to help, or isn’t listening. High press towards Broughty Ferry pinned Celtic back, until we eventually got out two goals later, but fate even managed to keep Daizen Maeda’s unmissable chance out of the net.
Missed first half chances after we’d looked like a MON team, cost Celtic dearly as in football they never repeat in the second, the substitutions were as ineffective as unexpectedly placed. The game played out and Liam Scales did indeed look tired.
Even Van Morrison couldn’t have seen days like this, God only knows how Sunday will go, or who’ll be there and driving the crashed car.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Aye, ok.
So a group chose to sang “Nancy, GTF”
… because they love the team so much
… and they thought this would spontaneously invigorate and inspire the team they love so much to get back in the game?
Missing 4/5 sitters and being cheated by the linesman at the DU second goal beat us . Nancy’s not the reason we lost and neither are the fans who chanted .
Our recruitment beat us and that applies to both players and the manager who is not a good fit for us ….. Those who run the club are entirely responsible for that.
Another goal conceded from a corner which was awarded from an offside position – that’s twice in 10 days 😡
Nancy is not the problem.
Those who employed Nancy are the problem.
If we had a board that had the best intentions of the club at heart we would have won that match tonight easily, have a League Cup in the cupboard and sit top of the league, with our striker, who replaced Kyogo as the leagues top scorer, being supplied by the winger who replaced Kuhn and motoring along with BR at the helm.
But we don’t – hence the need for the chants.
@BACK TO BASICS – GLASS HALF FULL
I genuinely feel sorry for the guy, but he’s applied (or been put forward) for a job he’s patently under qualified to do by a board that is also not capable. He is unfortunately going to feel the heat from that. They are still the main culprits.
I was at Celtic park the day of the ‘Strachan gtf’ chants. He was also a board scapegoat
The poor recruitment, the letting go of good players, the injuries to key players, the fallout with fans and now the change of manager have ended up in the perfect storm. It’s hard to see a way out.
The DU goals were coming for more than 15 minutes without apparently WN doing anything to counter DU’s momentum – that also happened under former manager BR. The team habitually go flat, lose energy and drive during the second half – the opposition were content to allow Celtic to play at a furious pace in the first half provided they stayed in the game without losing more than one goal. They came out in the second half, upped their pace and aggression and pinned us back, forcing repeated corners.
Fundamentally Celtic don’t have enough physicality, aggression and height throughout the team. Lots of nice football played by Celtic till we run out of steam.
A striker (or two) who can hit the target would help.

Agree wholeheartedly with the Rubicon reference.
some of you guys are feckin mental – clearly its all the fault of BR and the fans….especially those who waste such a relatively large % of their disposable income following the team – stupid or what !
Why did we lose a CL qualifier?
IMHO, because we didn’t prepare properly by investing in the team and, because of that (and other goings on behind the scenes), we had a totally disengaged manager.
However, this shit storm has been brewing since before the Bayern games. We sold the goals and didn’t replace them.
We had two windows and bought dross.
We have money to progress but no vision or desire to do so.
And, please don’t forget the absolute contempt the board has for fans.
Like many, I have nothing in common with this board, politically or in any other area. I am a Celtic supporter. How many of them are?
A little engagement and some transparency and all this might have been avoided.
Now we’re left with Nancy. Good help us!
I said weeks ago that this would get worse before it got better. Well, it has certainly got worse (worst since 1978) but, I can’t see how it gets better.
Not with Nicholson & Tisdale still in place, never mind Nancy.
Rodgers was an elite manager happy to be at Celtic.
However they lied to him and sold his best players and then had that clown Tisdale go to Japan and sign 2 players he never knew about.
Lawwell sickened Rodgers and he started retaliating with childish behaviour around fringe players. This was used a stick to beat him with as well as stale performances.
It has been described to me that DD had Lawwell in one ear complaining about Rodgers and Rodgers in the other complaining about Lawwell. Rodgers requested the clear the air meeting and Board savvy Lawwell outmanoeuvred him ensuring DD jettisoned Rodgers. I imagine Lawwell had a wide grin when DD issued his tirade against Lawwell. Job done.
If they had supporter Rodgers we would be in an entirely different place but still the strategy , structure and investment in stadium still sad lacking due to Board/Exec incompetence.
However Lawwell exited happy that he forced Rodgers out — that will be his legacy.
I said Sunday, give him tonight….the guy has inherited our worst squad for decades, Pep couldn’t make a team here,but I don’t think he can turn it round.Looks a beaten man,who has been hung out to dry.What was the interview process, and who else was considered? He can’t survive now,and the hun like chants were out of order, get MON and previous coaches in,as this has been abysmal.
I wasn’t even born the last time Celtic lost 4 in a row.
BACK TO BASICS – GLASS HALF FULL on 17TH DECEMBER 2025 11:32 PM
BSR @ 11:14pm
Rubicon indeed, not doing the read back I’m sure it’s all there, raw emotion, maybe tomorrow.
NITOL CSC
If they manage to get a 1-1 or even 2-2 on Sunday, will its be known as the Nancy Drew Mystery ? Bed.
This is a worse clusterfk, than in the 80s when the Kelly’s and Whites were in charge, no leadership, and a new crisis every day
If ever there was a time to support the team it was right after we lost 2nd goal.
It is as if at that point those singing about The Board and Nancy had surrendered the match.
Mind you I doubt singing The Cry was no Surrender would have helped but think in no surrender and encouraging the players might have made a difference.
At each missed chance I could imagine the consequences.
Watched the Nicholson/ Wilson interview. None too subtle expectation management. We hope to have success this season but this is a long-term project. We’ve been in tight spots before and came back stronger etc.
The know the writing’s on the wall and do did big Pistol, hence his walking away.
They sold us a load of pap merchandise, inflated ticket prices, disinvested in the team and blew up the season/ club harmony and now they’re trying to make a virtue of it/ appealing for unity whilst badmouthing their own ‘customer base’. They really do take us for mugs. Dearie me.
Memo to the Boardroom Beach Boys, take your crazy someplace else, no-one’s buying it.
Timmy7 @ 11:23pm.
Cheers.
Genuinely appreciate you replying to a post of mine which, on reflection, was unnecessarily scornful.
Respect.
We’re all hurting tonight.
How each of us processes that hurt is up to us.
I can deal with Celtic losing four games in a row.
Hurts so badly but I can deal with it.
If nothing else?
I can look the supporters of every other Scottish club in the eye now and say “OK. Fair enough”
I can deal with us playing poorly and getting bad results across the next few months.
I can deal with us not winning the league this season if that is how it pans out.
Celtic supporters singing “Nancy, GTF”? … while our beloved team are out there struggling in incredibly difficult circumstances to do their jobs?
IMHO … That’s a new low.
The suits come and the suits go.
I’ve liked some and disliked others.
I’ve never loved a single one of them.
They don’t matter.
It’s about the team.
Always has been. Always will be.
That’s were the love is.
Those young men pulling on our beloved hoops and going out to represent us, make us proud, make us feel connected to something magical.
With us supporters completing that symbiosis.
We’d love to be those players even just for 5 minutes.
99.99% of us never will be.
So instead … our role is cheering them in victory, sticking with them in defeat, making them more and greater than they otherwise would be … because we love them faithfully.
A group of our fans, driven by nothing more than hatred of the suits?
Lost that magic tonight.
Their loss.
For my part? …
I will NEVER give any suit permission or empowerment to dilute or diminish MY love for OUR team.
Goodnight CQN.
Hoop Hoop Hooray at 10.50pm
Well observed. God help us when we face a team in form. Aberdeen & Motherwell coming up. Will Wilf go nap?

It was apparently 1977-78, I went to every game that year, home &away plus the euro away game in Austria. Think we were 5th that year, more money than sense!

All I will say is I heard an entirely different narrative from that.
Either BR lost trust in DD or DD lost trust in BR.
In former case BR could have resigned and said why. He did not.
In second case DD did what he did.
Trust keeps a relationship going.
When it is lost you get relationship breakdown.
It applies in any circumstances and sooner or later if there is no trust a relationship collapses.
