The Offical Glasgow Celtic thread

[straightred]

Objectively I don't see presiding over defeat by a part time team from Gibraltar or Celtic's worst ever result in Europe as any sort of progress.

Ronny wasn't given the resources to sign a Sinclair or Dembele (who went awol in the Nou Camp after missing a penalty). In short and at best the jury is still out on the current Celtic manager

if there's a jury out on rodgers then there must be a firing squad looking for mourinho at the moment 

[T Fearon]

Mourinho has a much harder task,competing with mega spending neighbours Man City, not to mention Chelsea,Spurs etc.He hasn't the luxury of zero domestic opposition.Also he is manager of arguably the biggest club in the world, in terms of profile,fan base etc

Spurs

I don't have an agenda.I and others like me,Roy Keane for example are less than enamoured by embarrassing displays in Europe which are not compensated for by routine wins,for the most part in domestic competition against weak opponents.

Jesus wept....

[T Fearon]

I defy anyone watching this,taking almost 83 minutes to breach Alloa's defence that we are managed competently or are moving in the right direction

[lenny]

Alloa tomorrow night. Good game to get some confidence back after the Barca game. 2-2 away to ict not the worst result but be good to get back in he win column

2 great goals and a clean sheet. We missed a lot of chances though. Rodgers once again made the required switches which enabled us to open up their blanket defence. Would love to win this cup this year, we don't have a great record in it.

Good result tonight

0ur record in the league cup isnt great so will take the result tonight over performance,under lennon we got caught out against morton at celtic park dominated possesion 20 shots on target etc but got dumped out 1-0.Great finish by dembelle for 2nd goal.

Whats your view on McGeeney then? Post it on another thread if you like

[T Fearon]

How dare you mention Neil Lennon's name in the same breath as our current super manager,who deserves a knighthood after tonight's stunning 2 nil win over Alloa,which has instantly banished the disappointment of Barcelona.🙄

[tonto1888]

Through to the next round - the only thing that matters - next

[T Fearon]

If that was Ronny's team there'd be a protest against the Board outside Celtic Park this minute

[Upthecut]
