Scott Brown not the only one worried about manager

1266

Scott Brown was not the only one was briefly worried about Neil Lennon’s position in recent months.  Neil has never particularly hidden his desire to work in England one day but when it became evident that there would be a few seats available in the English top flight, with the Everton job in particular becoming available, I am sure there were a few nervous twitches.

As and when Neil decides he is going to move on, Celtic will want to have a plan for succession in place, if not entirely executed.  In May, when Neil was fielding questions about moving on, I doubt any succession planning had taken place.  Some at the club would have been looking forward to a summer break and some player trading.  The prospect of finding a new manager, with all the inherent consequences for trading, preseason planning and Champions League qualification, would have caused mild panic.

Always be prepared.

How is your 1254125 work coming along?  Not started yet?  Today, Tom Conniffe completes his 125 mile walk along the Leeds-Liverpool canal.  Go look and see how well his fundraising has gone (and get involved if you can).

    Your right in that there is a devil in all of us.

     

    It’s how you fight the demon that there is within you that makes the man.

    GL2 – I’ll never forget he didn’t kick a ball for us during the 4 months leading up to his transfer. He was a cracking attacking midfielder, but give me the Maestro any day!

    Sorry, I missed your Portadown post earlier. I went to every game 78-81.

     

    The away Coleraine, Irish Cup QF in 79 was the one were the RUC came off worst.

     

    Every single peeler along the pitch side/low wall got hit and the most incredible one was when this grinning fat kid, maybe about 12, and who was standing right in front of the RUC Inspector in charge of the game, turned to face us. The fat boy bends down and with both hands lifts a chunk of terracing. He then throws it straight up in the air and quickly spins round to face the game. Seconds later it lands fully on top of the cop’s head, cap flying, blood everywhere, peeler unconscious and stretchered off.

    Maybe a fews other suprises too.

     

    For example i saw Emilio play for Honduras and attract some admirers.

     

    Its all a question of the pishest. They will stay.

  12. This could be a cracking game, Brazil are a team that will actually attack Spain, most just sit back and hope not to get hammered.

     

     

    Hopefully Spain win.
