  1. Eduard has been managed / coached from a 25m player to 10m

     

    Christie has gotten worse as the season goes on

     

    Laxalt started brightly when he first came and has regressed drastically

     

    Mcgregor is not the assertive player he was under rogers

     

    we are one dimensional – rarely do we see players beating their man and creating havoc

     

    Rogic should never be in the starting 11 – he is not physically up to it – the number one attribute needed for football at this level

     

    we are a shambles top to bottom – the overhaul and re-think needs to start right now!

  2. Night night y’all. I can only hope DD is beavering away. The sideline display tonight is not what I associate with celtic.

  3. He thinks he’s the man to rebuild the Club…..I fkn give up,stormed off the RS interview, he’s an embarrassment now

    ‘Big bad proddie independence movement manipulate the results again’

    Sturgeon’s different responses to Covid breaches by the two clubs still require an explanation.

     

     

    Not to the cult followers obviously. Cult followers don’t ask questions about cult leaders. Just keep drinking the Cool Aid.

  5. Stupidity does not have a universal standard.

     

     

    I used to enjoy stories about people who had shown epic stupidity.

     

     

    Like the Florida couple who drank a compound which they had lying around the house for cleaning the fish tank because it contained the substance Donald Trump claimed was working miracles in curing the virus.

     

     

    It didn’t end well.

     

     

    Another story I have always liked was the one about the bank-robber who didn’t have a mask and so covered his face with shaving foam. And then, with it dripping all over the place, and in no way made him look unobtrusive, he patiently waited in the queue before making his demands, by which time the police were already on their way.

     

     

    There was a great story too, from Belgium, about the robbers who went to a store and made their demands only to be told there was no money on the premises. The owner had a helpful suggestion; why didn’t they come back later, when there would be something for them to steal? Which they discussed amongst themselves and agreed to do.

     

     

    That didn’t end particularly well either.

     

     

    I felt a little bit as if I was watching one of those instances unfold tonight when I heard that Lennon was going with Ryan Christie up front tonight and Scott Brown back in the team.

     

     

    A mish-mash, hodge-podge of a formation nobody understood.

     

     

    And of course we also got the obligatory substitutions which instead of clearing things up made them even more confusing.

     

     

    He seemed alarmed when Christie missed one of many chances that fell his way late in the game; I don’t know why.

     

     

    After all, wasn’t this just a bad night in an otherwise reasonable season?

     

     

    The guy who just last night assured us all that this hasn’t been the disaster we all think should surely just shrug this one and off and move onto the next one, right?

     

     

    What does it matter, after all, that he made decisions tonight which every one of us knew were major errors?

     

     

    We were playing the team rooted to the bottom of the league, so of course it made perfect sense to go with one up front.

     

     

    We’re been notoriously bad at conceding from set-pieces, so of course it made no sense to mark people better or do something different, and it was just a coincidence that we’ve conceded from one yet again, right?

     

     

    Does he ever learn? Does he even care to learn?

     

     

    If stupidity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result he’s no better than a trailer park Trump voter who doesn’t even think to read a warning label, or a guy who’d walk up to a bank clerk with shaving foam down one side of face and try to commit armed robbery with the sirens wailing in the background.

     

     

    Watching Lennon and his fellow coaches stand there and plot like-for-like changes tonight made me feel a little like the shopkeeper must have felt watching the men who came to rob him fall for a strategy only slightly more sophisticated than “Look! Your shoelace is untied!”

     

     

    A feeling of “Are they really going to be that stupid? Oh yes, they certainly are!”

     

     

    In a sane world, at a club run well, this would be curtains for Lennon but in a sane world and a club run well he’d never have been allowed this epic clown-car-crash of a night in the first place. Because he should have been dispatched to the Sky Sports Scotland studio, retirement home for failed managers and tabloid sneering idiots.

     

     

    You think to yourself after every one of these “surely this is the last?” and it never is, and so I don’t really believe that it will be this time except we’ve just lost to the bottom team in the league.

     

     

    We’ve just virtually assured that the swaggering Gerrard will bring his team to Celtic Park as champions before the split, to inflict further humiliation on us in our own back yard.

     

     

    In the meantime, Lennon gets to play around with building next year’s team out of the one he’s wrecked and the board plays pathetic little games as the clock ticks down.

     

     

    This club is a shambles and I fear we’re not done with this farce yet.

  6. Lenny summed this season up when he throw himself into his seat hands in pockets and feet up on hoarding in from of him ,totally out of his depth, only thing was he should have been doing it ages ago in his house in front of the telly, I said at half time that you couldn’t tell who was the bottom of the league team , the second half we certainly performed like one.

  7. Nearly through ma phone at the telly listening to Lennon unable to explain why we’re shit at defending and attacking crosses..

     

     

    Goodnight

  8. Lubo we need you on

    One dimensional guff !

     

     

    Ryan Christie is a wizard in his own head only ,good luck on the other side , needs a shift the bench .

     

     

    No plan or tactics , we dont have the ability to change to the game plan vs opposition , they have our measure constantly.

     

     

    Neil , please please please do the right thing now , your reputation is already gone , its damage limitation .

    Like most of our players..I think I’ll give the rest of the season a miss :O(

     

    ——————————————————————

     

    Unfortunately, the players made their choice three months ago…

    Like his doppelganger, Pat Mustard, on his milk round.

  11. He’s stealing money from us now,the same as McCoist did with the huns,he knows this is his last big payday, before he joins his pal on Sky Sports

  12. lets all do the huddle on

    Sturgeon’s different responses to Covid breaches by the two clubs still require an explanation.

     

     

    Not to the cult followers obviously. Cult followers don’t ask questions about cult leaders. Just keep drinking the Cool Aid.

     

     

     

    only a CQN Unionist Klan member could have watched that utter shite and still managed to divert the issues to politics

  13. SFTB

    I have been saying that since December.

     

     

    They obviously feel he is better than Kennedy and Strachan in charge.

     

     

    But he is being tortured along with us.

     

     

    His legacy is being ruined.

     

     

    My major concern is that we don’t have any quality replacements lined up.

     

     

    We are in danger of causing long term damage by not having a plan and successors earmarked.

     

     

    DD ,our board and our CEO are ultimately to blame .

     

     

    Hindsight is a wonderful thing .

     

    For millions a year I expect foresight .

     

     

    Our leaders are endangering the future of the club for years to come.

    !!BADA BING!! on 21ST FEBRUARY 2021 9:59 PM

     

     

    I’ve been saying that for months but I’m a hun according to folk on here…

  15. PeterLatchfordsBelly on

    I suspect we’ll go into free fall in the remaining 8 games. We’ll probably win half at most. Likely to finish c30 points behind a bang average hun.

     

     

    Lennon inherited an excellent team and in 2 years has led us to this point.

     

     

    The dressing room needs cleared out. I’d keep Welsh, Taylor, Hazard, McGregor, Soro and Turnbull.

     

     

    Get shot of the rest.

  16. 79CAPS on 21ST FEBRUARY 2021 9:26 PM

     

    Ross C used all 5 subs. A decent manager would have substituted Rogic at HT at the latest.

     

     

     

    Nothing on the flanks, no target man, but five midfielders. As someone said earlier, any SPL manager could get more out of this team. After all, we did beat he team currently on top of the French league.

     

    ——————————————————————

     

    Spot on.

     

    A competent manager would have made a change at HT.

  17. LETS ALL DO THE HUDDLE on 21ST FEBRUARY 2021 9:59 PM

     

     

    I’m responding to a mention of Sturgeon by one of your fellow cult members.

     

     

    Maybe take it up with him.

  18. It’s beyond disgraceful that Neil Lennon remains as Celtic gaffer.

     

     

    Life is too short to watch a side managed by Neil Lennon. I’ll not be watching Celtic again till Lennon has been punted.

  19. I remember people on here scoffing at the idea of David Moyes. David Moyes would’ve won the 10 in my opinion.

  20. Go tell the Spartim on

    Surely to god they’ve been looking for a replacement for a while now…. surely….. maybe not

  21. PeterLatchfordsBelly on

    Lennon quoted as saying “we played well” and that he’s the man to rebuild the club in the summer having not been told to expect any different.

  22. Not happy obviously.

     

    Not with hindsight but surely given RC as a physical, lump it into the box team,if there was a tailor made game for Duffy,this was it.

     

    We missed 2 tap.ins,Eddie and Christie, after that we were hustled and body checked all over the park,and Eddie is not effective in this type of game.

     

    Poor situation.

  23. Who would have guessed? One up front = limited chances.

     

     

    Did anyone notice a change in tactics after half time. Seemed to me we were “going long”. To a lone striker, whose main strength is with the ball at his feet.

     

     

    I know I shouldn’t, but I’m absolutely confused as to why the manager is still here. He should not have made it to the Cup Final. But after he won that, he should have been replaced.

    Another one…

    “We’ve just virtually assured that the swaggering Gerrard will bring his team to Celtic Park as champions before the split, to inflict further humiliation on us in our own back yard.”

     

     

    You are correct buddy …shame …. but its by our luck that no one will be there to witness it , no screaming orange skulls. Anyway , who are we to complain , its only a game , more important things in life at the mo

  26. And there it is……

     

    The final curtain comes down on the movie with the worst shower scene since Hitchcock directed Psycho!

     

     

    BTW that’s Lawwell’s coronation of Lenny in the showers at Hampden – for all the happy clapping Board lackeys on here that are blind to all the downsizing that’s been going on over the past few seasons.

     

     

    There’s too many of you to mention but hopefully you all know who you are. The rest of us are the ones who are NOT surprised that we’ve effectively been knocked out of TWO competitions by the team at the bottom of the SPFL!

     

     

    So now we await the confirmation, probably at Paradise, of the confirmation of a Rangers Tribute Act, with no line of credit from a Bank, with a rookie manager who has failed twice to get his UEFA coaching badges and has never sold a player for money in the past 9 years, that this team are champions of Scotland.

     

     

    That is YOUR legacy Lawwell !!

  27. When was it Brendan Rodgers said “We’ve got about a million wingers and don’t need another one.”

     

     

    Dog and I have checked everywhere, can’t see one. Did we sell 250,000 of them each window since he left?
