    Lawwell is the executive director.

     

    He carries out Board policy.

     

    THAT`S his job.

     

    He does what the Board tells him to do.

     

    Do you seriously imagine that D.D. and the other corporate high fliers we have on our Board act according to P.L.`s wishes ?

     

    Seriously ?

     

    That`s not the way the world works.

     

    P.L. is no more than a convenient scapegoat .

     

    Unquestionably culpable . But not him exclusively.

     

     

    Picture the scene.

     

    P.L. departs.

     

    Ronny stays.

     

    Happy now ?

    Yes me. I remember Lenny’s team having the league in the bag only to lose to St J in an away game and handing the league to The Myth. He never gave youth a chance and to be honest his teams bored me but I went along because I support Celtic. I was glad when he decided to leave.

    They wanted it more and it meant more to them than some of our players.

     

     

    They never put Celtic under intense pressure and frequently failed to put the ball into the box from corners, fre kicks or open play.

     

     

    They had a shape and stuck to it.

     

     

    Celtic were a shambles without co-ordination for long spells.

     

     

    I never felt they played better than Celtic for any significant period of time but like all the teams who beat us they took their chances when they came and profited from our poor decision making.

  5. EddieM,

     

     

    We didn’t deserve to win. It was one of the most hapless displays ever against an Ibrox based side who had inferior players throughout.

     

     

    RD , Collins to go ASAP. Not sure about Kennedy….maybe youths.

     

     

    Replacement — almost anybody would be an improvement. Some clever thinking required.

    OK your on, give money to Hamiltontim whoever loses ok.

  7. Macjay

     

    Are you at the wind up?

     

    Ronny is finished and would go wether Lawell stays or goes.

  8. G64- disillusioned by the whole situation.put the headphones on with Spotify 10 minutes ago….first song loaded from last time? Beck Loser…

    Aye. O.K.

     

    But he was a damn sight better than Ronny.

     

    Agreed ?

     

     

    Incidentally , I thought that league was lost at Inverness.

  10. Macjay,

     

     

    I’m was talking the ethos under our CEO et al. They wanted the Bigot Pound now they have it.

     

    Anyway getting late here. Enjoy the Sydney sunshine. I am glad to read you had a good day with your bhoy. Me too.

     

     

    Don’t get into too many scraps on here.

    No probs, if only we’d acted after Malmo, Molde, RC or EK.

     

    Today would not have happened imo.

  12. eddieinkirkmichael on

    I’m away to bed guys, been a long day. Feck I hate this feeling, seems like the same as when we got beat off the Rangers.

  13. All this talk about they were no better than us – bottom line, and history will reflect only this – we were beaten. Not only beaten, but beaten by a lower league side that did not have enough players to fill their bench.

     

    A Sevco supporter on SFM has just posted that what he learned from today’s game was that Celtic seemed to have enough to post a credible challenge to them next season.

     

    If that is not a wake up call to the Celtic Board, I don’t know what is!

     

    Real Madrid once fired a manager immediately he won La Liga because they thought the performances, particularly in Cup competitions, were inadequate.

     

    I don’t know what we’re waiting for.

    Are you at the wind up?

     

     

    Ronny is finished and would go wether Lawell stays or goes.

     

    =======================================================

     

     

    I sincerely hope you are right.

     

     

    If yesterday is the means of getting rid , then for me it was worth it.

     

    I didn`t fear the huns as a credible competitor before yesteday`s game.

     

    I still don`t.

    Opinion expressed as fact.

     

     

    Mate.

     

    The number of Irish accents I spoke to last night would have outnumbered a pub in Dublin.

     

    Magical.

     

     

    That`s the big picture .

     

    Not a loss to the bigots.

     

     

    We can and must do better.

     

    I ,for one , am confident we will.

     

     

    Slainthe.

  17. They never put Celtic under intense pressure and frequently failed to put the ball into the box from corners, fre kicks or open play.

     

     

    Snake,

     

    before I retire for tonight, I agree with your take on this. They took short corners, short free kicks; they had a plan that they stuck to. They kept it on the deck and simply out passed us. They knew that we had tall defenders and did not do the high ball into the box. We just hoofed it up the park; without success.

    We were outcoached.

     

     

    Again.

  20. Tricoloured Ribbon on

    Macjay,

     

    No.Yer wrong.

     

    There is no consultation with the board.

     

    Lawwell and Park are the men.

     

    Lawwell has the final say in all that happens.

     

    I know that for an absolute fact.

  21. macjay1 for Neil Lennon on

    TRICOLOURED RIBBON on 18TH APRIL 2016 1:07 AM

     

     

     

    So.

     

    D.D. is P.L.`s poodle ?

     

     

    You think ?

     

     

    Mate.

     

    Surely you agree that , at the very least , Ronny must go .

  22. Tricoloured Ribbon on 18th April 2016 1:07 am

     

     

    Macjay,

     

    No.Yer wrong.

     

     

    There is no consultation with the board.

     

     

    Lawwell and Park are the men.

     

     

    Lawwell has the final say in all that happens.

     

    I know that for an absolute fact.

     

    ———————-

     

    If that is true how many leagues and trophies has Lawwel won?

  23. Tricoloured Ribbon on

    Macjay.

     

    Agree 100% regarding Deila.

     

    But remember Lawwell appointed him.

  24. macjay1 for Neil Lennon on

    Here`s what we know.

     

    Not opinion. Fact.

     

     

    The team on the field is not producing the results we have a right to expect.

     

    Agreed ?

     

     

    That is the responsibility of one man.

     

    The coach.

     

    That`s true of every other club .

     

    Why are we different ?

     

    We`re not.

     

     

    First,sack the coach.

  25. macjay1 for Neil Lennon on

    TRICOLOURED RIBBON on 18TH APRIL 2016 1:13 AM

     

    Macjay.

     

     

    Agree 100% regarding Deila.

     

     

    But remember Lawwell appointed him.

     

    =========================================================

     

    Yes,pal.

     

    And must accept responsibility for the role he played.

     

     

    Just one question.

     

    How much longer can this nightmare last ?

     

    An executive decision by the Board NOW.

  26. Tricoloured Ribbon on 18th April 2016 1:17 am

     

     

    Don’t get yer gist on that.

     

     

    What do you mean?

     

    ————-

     

    If Lawwell has had total control of everything at the club these past years then he’s been successful right?

  27. Tricoloured Ribbon on

    Macjay,

     

    I said it long ago pal.Deila should havè been bulleted 8 months ago..

  28. Tricoloured Ribbon on

    The Huddle,

     

    Yep he’s been successful.

     

    Ask Legia Warsaw,Molde,Malmo,Maribor,Inverness Ross County and Sevco.

     

    Incredible stuff.

  29. SydneyTim says sack Lawell now on

    Macjay. Sore Heid. Was in cheers last night

     

    Question. Who is this celtic board you keep talking about

     

    My understanding is there are only two paid board members

     

     

    Peter Lawell has a remit from DD. Zero debt. How he goes about it is totally up to him

     

    He has chosen the easy route Sponsorship. Season ticket money and sell one player a year for big bucks

     

    Worked for him 100% bonus intact

     

     

    If Ronny goes another PL puppet comes in and is given players like boyta Hands tied behind back

     

    Waste of time

     

    We spend enough money. But spent looking for money ball players

  30. I don’t comment much these days. Suffice to say that my love of Celtic has been seriously undermined by the destruction of sport in general by multi national corporations who toy with our tribal emotions in order to sell us products we don’t need. That been said, our defeat today was inevitable. We have misused the last four years to balance books with a boring, selfcontented, style of “football” that regards skill and courage as relics of a bygone age. Rangers died, but the spirit of the hun will always be with us. Their manager was far superiour to ours. Their poise was far superior to ours. We were headless chickens. They played football. Their lack of penetration saved our blushes. Top class football now lies in Spain, Germany, and God help us, England. Capitalism has destroyed the beautiful game. But what we do ?

  31. SydneyTim says sack Lawell now on

    This will all be forgotten about in a few weeks. All things will be back to normal

     

    Paul67 blogging about some tax thing

     

    Before we know it CL qualifier will be here and we will get turfed out by some club that again has a fraction of our income , then we will sell the young left back to balance books

     

    Agm will once again be controlled by Peter Lawell and round we go again

     

     

    Ronny won’t be sacked as he is peters man

     

    Peter Lawell has recieved over 400k in bonuses each year for last 4 years

     

    Peter is in an easy job. Perfect for his pension. He won’t go unless pushed

     

    Starve him of season book money and he might

  32. A wee song for the SFA, the MSM Scribes, Celtic PLC, and even, after years of observing, CQN.

    It’s more than a shame. It’s a Spin beyond the realm of science. Breaks my heart that my father did not witness their demise. But more than that I am blessed that he did not witness their false resurrection. Aided and abetted by the media and Celtic PLC.

     

     

    What a race to the bottom we have witnessed….. Just like the Banks who payroll such nonsense.

     

     

    Shame on them and those who support them with their emotional energy.

     

     

    Clumpany & Maggie McGill

     

     

    Respect

     

     

    Your timing is perfect.

  33. !!BADA BING!! on 18TH APRIL 2016 12:14 AM

     

    The feeling from myself and others who have watched Celtic this season were not surprised by that shite today. It was in the post.Outplayed,outclassed,out thought.and then some.

     

    _____________________________________________________________________________

     

    Hail Hail fella, hope ye don’t mind but I’ve selected your post as a reflection of the realization that is now starting to descend on Timdom.

     

    Ye see, Celtic were playing the huns yesterday but, we were not playing any mibbery-assisted-cheating-dirty-animals like for example…

     

    John Greig

     

    Tam Forsyth

     

    Alex MacDonald

     

    Richard Gough

     

    Sleekit

     

    Hately

     

    Lafferty

     

    Naismith

     

    etc…..

     

    No, none of that.

     

    Maybe the only reptile on display was Halliday who, fouled from the 1st whistle until he was eventually booked with 2 mins of extra time remaining.

     

    That apart, Ronny’s Celtic come up against a team who were, well drilled, organized and moulded into a unit by a manager who has been cheaply derided on here by the conceited cliquey types who’s slanted versions of Celtic FC are about to ripped asunder in front of they’re eye’s.

     

    I wonder who they’ll be preaching to this morning ?

     

    Who knows…..maybe Mark Warburton has been sent by the angels up above to, waken the lazy-comfort-zone-Johnny-come-lately-types of Celtic supporters that you’ll find at Celtic Park today, from they’re conceited-mis-guided idea’s that, Rangers will never be back ?

     

    Furthermore, I think that the cheating huns that we have been used to seeing on the pitch for all these long, trying years….might not be back….under Warburton’s watch.

     

    Seems to me like, Rangers have pulled a rabbit oot of the hat wi this guy.

     

    As for the Celtic…..further medicine might be required.

     

    If that means that we lose the SPFL title to knock down then, rebuild Celtic, a Celtic to be structured without a PLC board well, that could be the dream that we thought we were getting all those long years ago when we all thought that, “…..the rebels had won.”

     

    Don’t be sidetracked by all the short sighted nonsense when, plastic commanders will try to remind us that – there’s a title to be won – the recapturing of, Celtic’s soul would be a far bigger and much more important prize….dontcha think ?

     

    Hail Hail pal.

     

    You’ll Never Walk alone….in the Jungle.

     

    …..off-oot-zzzzzz……
