Over the weekend, Erik Sviatchenko spoke about Scott Brown as Celtic’s “fine minister” as the captain had authority to fine players who broke discipline. In Erik’s instance, it was lateness. Scott Brown has been Celtic’s first line of discipline since Neil Lennon’s first period in charge. Young players were led by example, as more experienced players were given clear guidance of what was expected from them as a Celtic player.
Reprimanding a player for hitching a ride on a buggy intended for an injured colleague, as I once witnessed, requires oceans of respect from players and coaches alike. This takes pressure off the manager, who can ration his use of discipline for more select matters, when its rarity has more effect.
Controlling a squad of several dozen well-paid athletes is a challenge when results are not going your way and there are campaigns against the manager. Players cultivate all the wrong feelings when reading social media and pester their agents. At these times, the manager’s voice can lose effect. Scott Brown could not prevent our collapse this season but you do not need to think too hard to figure how heavily Neil Lennon and John Kennedy have relied on him. Not that you will hear any of this from Scott. I would have him in my corner before anyone else in football.

Is Paul at CP for the job interview shakedowns? Not like him to miss a weekday post.
From a guy who gives me good info, Howe is in Glasgow
Ask some off the Tim’s that work out at Glasgow Airport about Howe
Bada
Are you sure it isn’t who’s in Glasgow
Will he have to isolate in a hotel for a fortnight 🤔
BADA BING
I hope someone is,this is beyond ridiculous.
I always love watching sky sports Time of our lives with Big Billy,Bobby and wee Bertie with Jeff Stelling.So if I could take Jeff’s place that would do me
Interested parties will be interviewed via Zoom or a private location imo given the current climate.
Don’t expect any potential new managers to be checking in at Devonshire Radisson red or wherever anytime soon.
The rumour mill is hitting overdrive I feel to say the very least.

Celtic FC need a new aggressive approach to SFA governance what do we have to lose
Couldn’t agree more – we are cheated on a regular basis. Enough of the silence.
Stand up for yourselves and the supporters or accept you are part of the deception.
Celtic FC is part of the deception.
WeeJoe
What other conclusion could you draw?
MAESTRO- hotels are still open,the Club will own property, as does a guy very close to the Board.
Bada were previous appointments not interviewed in London pre covid I know the rat was.

The only way we will get a fair deal from the sfa is to move to a different league.
I THINK YOU’LL FIND IT’S A LOT MORE COMPLICATED THAT THAT.
So many people talking about a manager. “get him” “why don’t we appoint him?” “what’s taking us so long?”. The same thing happens with players. The same thing has happened and carries on with Res 12, LNS, our financial position ……etc etc etc.
The club just can’t ‘snap its fingers’ and make things happen – football is a multi-billion pound global business and a litigious quagmire at times. Many things go on in the background and never see the light of day.
However in this season, this very important season, we were failed squarely by a football management team and a squad of players. Players who had won the title last season – had been kept together and supplemented by a £20m spend.
A management team who wasted that £20 on non-performers like Barkas, Ajeti & Duffy….etc
The squad just had to perform to the level that they have shown to be capable of……THAT’S NOT COMPLICATED…..is it?
Maestro- I think so with Rodgers mate
I was in a taxi and this guy said to me, ‘How’s Glasgow?’ Strange thing I wasn’t in Glasgow. Then he said his name was Eddie – could be a clue – maybe.

Charles Patrick Tully, a man who was a legend in his own lifetime. My Dad was never keen on Charlie, said he overdid the tricks and carried on too much. He much preferred Peacock and Fernie at that time. Having said that, Charlie’s stories are also the stuff of legend.
