CHRIS SUTTON reckons the end is in sight for Wilfried Nancy at Celtic.
After just two weeks – and four soul-destroying defeats – the support turned on the Frenchman as the champions carelessly threw away three points after leading at the interval against struggling Dundee United at Tannadice last night.
It appeared to be a loss too far for the travelling fans who let their displeasure be known in no uncertain manner.
Nancy stood stone-faced on the touchline as his name ricocheted around the stadium with the furious followers advising him to “get tae ****.”
ENDGAME…Wilfried Nancy at the final whistle at Tannadice.
Former Celtic goal hero Sutton, who was a co-commentator on the game for Sky Sports, said: “You can hear the away fans, you know what they think of Wilfried Nancy. The number one appointment, but losing four games on the spin.
“It certainly isn’t the start that he wanted. I think the atmosphere at the weekend against Aberdeen, it will be interesting to see how many fans in the stadium are really supporting him.
“When a full fanbase turns against a manager, that’s the end.
“And I don’t think we’re too far away from that.”
Nancy has seen the Hoops lose 2-1 to Hearts in the Premiership, 3-0 to AS Roma in the Europa League, both at Parkhead, and 3-1 to St Mirren in the Premier Sports League Cup Final at Hampden before the latest mishap on Tayside.
It’s the club’s worst run since 1978 and the last time they lost five in a row was in 1947.
