Scott Brown not the only one worried about manager

1266
By on CQN BLOG & Comments

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).

    Does the new SPFL have a set of rules as yet?

     

     

    1. Associate members now become full members.

     

    2. “Trialists” are allowed to play even when they shouldn’t be.

     

    3. No need to show audited accounts.

     

     

    Rest to be made up as and when……

    Cavani popped up on the radio this morning —– seems all the hype is getting to him and he’s struggling to sleep.. He repeated his -I want to play for Real Madrid mantra ..

    There’s something oh-so-familiar about that. The words Steven and Naismith seem to spring to mind…..

    Brazil / Spain .

     

     

    Watched the game in a busy beach bar .

     

     

    Sicilians , Poles , Italians ,Moroccans, Bangladeshis, Bulgarians Romanians and 1 Glaswegian supporting Spain .[ I normally don’t but Brazil are vile ]

     

     

    With Blatter looking on from the posh seats —— it looks like —–

     

     

    Over the top , off the pitch and in the crowd goal celebrations are allowed ..

     

     

    Arguing with the Ref is OK .

     

     

    Man handling the Ref is OK .

     

     

    Telling the Ref what to do is OK..

     

     

    Kicking players from behind is OK .

     

     

    etc /etc

    I wondered that myself but also thought is the ref going to have to book 8 Brazil players here?

     

     

    I think the country is in big trouble if ugly scenes outside of football are still present next summer.

     

     

    Anyone know what kick off times are for WC?

    The SMSM are dying on their feet, victims of their own succulence & spin..

     

     

    Hence- their desperation to resurrect Sevco by all means.

     

     

    Life is easier not buying their spin.. Or listening to it..

    I particularly like Neymar’s diving style .—– he heads downwards and then goes back up for a triple somersault and pike . Very athletic .

     

     

    Sicilian radio man spoke of looking forward to the Champions League —” somebody is going to thump Neymar and I’m looking forward to seeing it “

    He will have to change his style in Europe. Players will kick him all over the place. Messi better get coaching him. He will need to fill out a bit too.

    “What Ally has done this summer is sign some of the best domestic talent available. Rangers look very solid for the new season.”

     

     

    I bet the other Div 2 Clubs wish they were suffering a transfer embargo.

    Saw a few buses later taking people back to West Lothian. Have to avoid the city centre when these things are on.

     

    Got caught out a few years ago by some Jambo’s from Pumphy who made it a very uncomfortable walk up the street for me when they recognised me with their OO buddies. Just bad timing and lack of knowledge it was on. Total vermin. My wife was asking why they were shouting at me. She doesn’t know about my younger shennanigans in West Lothian with these guys. Luckily the rest of the guys ignored me. Wouldn’t have wanted to be on my own. probably have been much worse.

     

    Horrible people.

    Apparently wasn’t them. Too much CCTV for them. They are clued up on the city. Maybe some of the younger mob there.

     

    I heard it was boys on a day/night out who had enough of the singing in the bars.
