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).

  1. refs a total homer.

     

    Brazilian fans acting like entitled huns.

     

    Brazil fouling with impunity

  2. Bees are crucial to the whole shebang of nature’s cycle and it’s s bad sign if they have went missing. ..I now feel guilty for trapping some in my jam jar with holes in the top…

     

     

    Didn’t loke the bumblebee top though but the kids did

     

     

    Hh

    On 2nd thoughts I hope Brazil win.

     

    FIFA have set it up for them so easily.

     

    Dutch ref will concur and FIFA coached accordingly.

     

     

    Cant have the peasants rioting before 2014 and blame FIFA

     

    So I hope these over inflated Scolari egos win and set it up nicely for Germany in 2014. Or Columbia. Dont really care.

     

     

    However, If Spain do win I will be happy in the interim but it will only make Brazil more determined.

     

    Best result of all would be Uruguay to win their 3rd world cup.

  4. Ah Didnae Like the Celtic Bumblebee Top ,either.

     

     

    Far too..well.. Busy!

  9. bournesouprecipe

     

     

    Dunno about that. They were brutal in ’74 WC – especially V Holland. Cruyff in particular took terrible abuse…….as they got 2-0 up. Not pleased.

  10. My Dear Kojo…..Crispy-Sunburnt Palomine…

    Yes, that’s right, because they were off the bottom of the Falls but that area was wrecked at the start of the troubles and they ended up with nowhere to play. They became nomads until getting a new ground out towards Lisburn. By that stage the Reds had picked up the West Belfast support that would have once gone to Distillery as well as the North Belfast population that was expanding

    One would have to be totally removed from the 125 celebrations … to not be aware of the info you just posted…

  14. No booking for any Brazil players going into the crowd to celebrate their goals? You imagine Celtic players ding that here…we’d be down to 9 men by now!

    Jude,

     

    What about thon wee Sevconian neighbour of yours you hadn’t seen in yonks?

     

    Did he ever surface? I know you were really concerned about him…hahahaha

  16. TBJ. I know, I suppose I should have ignored him but I was just curious as to what he was going to come out with/

  17. Billy Bhoy

     

     

    Hmmmm….. Happy that social unrest and rioting may be averted.

     

     

    Either way Spain had no chance before a ball was kicked, still maintain nastiness

     

    (diving) and Brazil is unusual.

  18. Arbeloa was at Liverpool and was awful, he must have some dodgy photos to have ended up at Real Madrid and in the Spanish national team.

  19. 'crushed nuts?' 'Naw, Layringitis!' on

    Thread on RM ‘Traynor & Bain’, apparently they were spotted having coffee and deep conversation. Has the ‘covenantor’ decided to reach out to an ally against Ally? Is D’Artagnan fed up with the dignified silence of the Cardignation?

     

    It’s unravelling like a Tom & Jerry jumper!!

  20. Arbeloa has been terrible.

     

    Booked and at found wanting at both goals.

     

    Mata has also been disappointing.

     

    Spain need to press higher but will find it difficult getting anything with this homer ref.

     

    If he keeps allowing Brazil leeway to tackle from behind it will be hard for Spain to gain momentum.

  21. channelislandcelt on

    Met Burley personally last year…….as I suspected total tosser.

     

     

    Took to slagging KOK without a moments prompting, best thing Dalglish done was getting shot .
