It was always going to be like this, Stevie

It was always going to be like this, Stevie.  You have the resources to comfortably be better than Aberdeen, but you don’t have the experience to put those resources to effective use.  You were knocked out of the Scottish Cup, not because you or your players didn’t try hard enough, but because you are new to management and it is not all about “wanting it” in an ever-louder-higher-pitched voice.

Celtic will eventually lose a cup game, the randomness of chances scored and conceded guarantees it.  When they do, you have as much chance of benefiting as anyone else, but you will need to be good enough to outsmart decent managers with a fraction of your budget, and you are not there yet.

Your employer needs to come up with an apparently viable strategy to win the league each season ticket renewal time.  The City trader with the brain the size of a planet failed, as did the exotic European with a hotline into desirable, cheap and untapped player markets.

You are there because the best talent in England, if not the world, will batter down your door in order to play for you.  That was the ‘elevator pitch’ last year.  It is not because they think you are a great coach, they know you are not.

If you want to succeed, stop bringing in midfielders from Dundee and sign the next Steven Gerrard.  That is why you are in the job and if this cannot be done, you will fail.  In the meantime, all you will achieve is to turn your fans into a cash cow for the rest of the league.  Which is nice, but is ironic, given your own club’s financial perils.

    Morning all,

     

     

    Newco have appealed Moreorless’s yellow card for diving.

     

     

    Clancy had at least 3 further opportunities to issue him a further yellow for diving.

     

     

    Each simulation was less convincing & more egregious than the other.

     

     

    Will the compliance officer consider the unpunished simulations by the 20million man?

     

    …………….

     

     

    Police Scotland are investigating sectarian singing by Abersheep fans at Ayebrokes directed at Seethen Jerrad.

     

     

    Apparently, songs about bestiality are not within their remitt or the spirit or scope of the relevant legislation.

     

    …………….

     

     

    Celtic received a 9 million quid payoff from Leicester for the BR & staff departures.

    Sorry but the vote was , do we leave the EU or do we not. Majority voted to leave, end of in my book.

     

    However, I will concede the electorate were very ill informed prior to the vote , and that was a massive balls up, but , the way the vote was set up, maybe even wrongly, but nonetheless, it was leave or not.

     

     

    You’ll notice I refrain from saying which way I voted, you know the great quote, ” The hottest place in hell is reserved for those, who in great moral crisis ,sit on the fence”
