Some perspective first. Ronny Deila, manager of Norwegian champions Stromsgodset, is not about to be appointed Celtic manager. He does, meet the criteria, unlike the various one-season wonders cast aside from the English Premier League. I believe there are two other strong candidates, Ronny has no pre-eminence at this stage, but unlike the various ‘favourites’ who have appeared in recent times, at least he is a genuine possibility.
Stefan Johansen worked under Ronny immediately before joining Celtic, which gave club scouts an insight into the coach’s style of play. Stromsgodset are predominantly an attacking team, who press high up the field and pass quickly.
His players are dedicated athletes or they don’t remain his players for very long. He is also one of the game’s intellectuals, a former teacher – and what I’ve been asking for since Neil resigned – a student of the game. His attitude to his own role is one of continual professional development.
Ronny has a track record of improving players and improving teams. He is not a brand name, nor a shareholder’s whim. He is not being considered because he’s ‘pals with Peter and out of a job’.
Please bear in mind………..
Ronny Deila is only one of three genuine contenders Celtic are considering at the moment but all three match the same criteria. They are intelligent, technically adept, progressive, winners. Which has made me more excited than any of the names suggested so far.

Don’t be starting an ‘inference debate’!
For the record I don’t really think I had/have an existing position….can’t speak for anyone else…..

Yup. Proof indeed. Paul says it. Ahem.
He also said the new boss cannot speak a word of English.

I am firmly of the opinion that The Celtic managers positioned should always be filled from a position of strength from Scotlnads lower but more exciting competative Scottish league, the championship.
MWD says AYE without inference. SFTB defender of the realm
“For many years I have thought [Diouf] was the gutter type – I was going to call him a sewer rat but that might be insulting to sewer rats.”
Because you have 5 fingers on each hand, 5 toes on each foot, two legs, two arms, a neck and a torso does not automatically mean you are humane!
MWD says AYE
El Hadj Diouf anyone?
Sorree ernie. Couldny resist.

‘The overwhelming majority of opinion on the blog and elsewhere is that Celtic would be taking an enormous risk with Roy Keane, feedback which I know has reached the club.’

It’s an odd thing to say, that last bit.

I remember that comment. Came after he broke a player’s leg, Jamie Mackie?, and Diouf leaned over him and called him a cheat for diving!!
But, he later had him when he managed Leeds?, and played him regularly!!

Just on and saw your post about Paul’s article the other day and the variation in interpretation that posters have taken from it.
When teaching children how to identify inferential questions and subsequently how to apply this understanding to drawing inference themselves, we guide them in using a number of different strategies.
These are applied before, during and after reading and include; make inferences and draw your own conclusions, draw upon prior knowledge and recognize the effects of one’s own point of view in formulating interpretations of texts.
Theoretically, your idea that an individual can interpret meaning from a piece of text based on preconceived ideas/opinions is sound.
However, of equal value is the factor that prior knowledge, often based on experience, can lead to an individual’s interpretation.
I tend to go with the latter.
Along with some others I took Paul’s article to mean that the views of Celtic supporters, and possibly CQN posters specifically, had led to the board having a change of heart over Keane.

I had a dream last night that he became manager, I say dream but it turned into a bit of a nightmare.
In the dream he started off by telling his first press conference that ‘Sevco’ were ‘Rangers’ and that liquidation never really happened. I laughed so hard that I pee’d the bed and woke up so I am not really sure how it ended.

For those of you who want to know if Paul (or his dastardly minions who jump at PL’s beck and call) implied it or whether you just inferred it, here is his full quote:-
“Reports out of Ireland that Roy Keane is no longer in the running for the Celtic job are correct. The former Sunderland and Ipswich boss asked not to be considered as Celtic have tightened their shortlist over the past few days.
The overwhelming majority of opinion on the blog and elsewhere is that Celtic would be taking an enormous risk with Roy Keane, feedback which I know has reached the club. These decision are all risky, and there are no guarantees we will be able to do better than Roy, but I’d be prepared to take that risk.”
My own take, having read it carefully again, is that it tells you that the Board(“club”) are aware of the majority fan sentiment about Roy Keane’s potential employment as manager. Nowhere does it say that this was factored into their decision or that it was a judgement they disagreed with. It is very easy to re-write the post, with minimal changes, to state clearly that the Celtic Board heard the fans, listened to them and acted accordingly.
It does not say that.
So did Paul tell you this or did it merely suit your existing position to infer it?
——————————————————————————————
The ole imply/infer issue is live again! I implied that there was a difference in meaning between imply and infer a couple of weeks ago and Ernie pulled me up implying (I think) that infer and imply were interchangable! At least that’s what I inferred (or implied) from his implication or inference (depending on where you stand on the issue).
Careful now!
He might be a flop. Although I doubt that. He will win the league.
He might be average. Although he will win the league.
But he might be the second best manager in our 126 year history.
Take a chance Celtic!

RE: celtic new manager
Hi Daniel – nice to hear from you!
I’m surprised that Celtic have approached Ronny Deila, even though several clubs outside of Norway have been made aware of him these past years.
He’s a young manager, who won the Norwegian league with Stromsgodset last season, something they had not done in close to fifty years. He was manys favorite to be the new head coach of the national team, but pulled himself out of the race saying he wanted to continue coaching club football, and also try to get Stromsgodset in the Champions League.
He does not have any coaching experience outside Norway, which is why I’m surprised that Celtic would seriously consider him. But he’s a popular coach, great with players and has brought up many young lads and new talents in Norwegian football. He of course is also the man who sold you Stefan Johansen after last season.
It’s very funny that this has come up today because Deila is actually in my hometown Tromso today, as they take on Championship side Tromsdalen in the cup this afternoon. I am of course headed to the match, and it will be interesting to see if these talks with Celtic have taken his mind of the game. If so, we’re looking at a serious upset in the cup!
I am well, thank you. Not married yet (been close a few times!), but living with a lovely girl. I’m no longer together with Torunn, who you met when I was living in York, but there is another dog involved now – and he’s quite a moose too!
My best to …………
this from the guy who told me LUSTIG was a brammer,big DAN rough n’ready,HOIVELD hhhhhhmmmmmm,him from AJAX a bandage, and last but not least HENKE.???.he said watch the goal he scored for SWEDEN in WORLD CUP.and that was all he said……………..till he came to YORK and he just smiled when I reminded him.
If the new manager is ever asked about the bootleg rangers all he has to say is they are not relevant to Celtic as they are unlikely to meet since Celtic are in the Champions League and they are in the Ramsdens Cup.

With any manager you take a chance. In my opinion Keane was a very expensive chance. If you are taking a punt a cheap option is better than an expensive one. We should not spend too much on manager recruitment. I think TBB done a great job on showing just what Mowbray cost the club. Not only in compensation in transfers but also putting us backwards with player acquisition and his training methods that didn’t seem to work. I like the sound of a strict manager who trains a team who play fast attacking football with players who are athletes. That sounds like the Celtic way of playing the game.

I think it implied that the views on here were a factor in the decision not to pursue RK but I may be wrong in the sloppy language I used to express myself.
So I am one who wants to know if Paul (or his dastardly minions who jump at PL’s beck and call) implied it or whether I just inferred it.
Start with the author of the article first. Who wrote it?
Bada,
I’m not so sure he’s the cheap option.
Yes he might work for a similar salary to lenny but it’ll cost a Bob or 2 to remove him from his contract.

I agree completely.
This ghuy excites me and if we get him I will definitely be back at games.
