The Offical Glasgow Celtic thread

[fred the red]

Myles, speculating on how sick or not someone's wife is f**king ridiculous. And Strachan is facing a Rangers team that has been absolutely gash for 4 years running--O'Neill's performance as a manager in his last year was bad because he had issues to deal with and trying to guess how big those issues were is appalling behaviour. Strachan's team plays unattractive, rank rotten football and  he wastes far too much money on players that end up leaving. He alienates fans with poor media communication and poor football, and for that reason he isn't better than O'Neill.

I've no problem when people find fault with Strachan. What I object to, as I've said, is when people come down in favour of MON for no other reason than that he is perceived to be 'a Celtic man.' Somebody define for me what that is please. Because if it's about loyalty or love of the Hoops, then Tommy Burns, Danny McGrain, Billy McNeill, etc might be Celtic men, but MON? A good manager, with excellent PR skills (unlike wee Strachan) but to describe him as a Celtic man is to devalue the term IMO.

Lads- why dont yous just put the WUM on your ignore list, his drivel is hard to read, not too hard when you ignore it though!

I'm going to start a Rangers thread so we can give them their own forum...

Watch you dont get scolded for straying off topic 

Sure everyone posting here is a celtic fan

my continued lack of confidence for wgs has damn all to do with who 'his' team are more to do with the fact that he is unbelievably inept, and dont ask my reasons for saying this just look back through the thread!

drives me nuts

In his favour GS's teams can now take corners that get into the fecking box, that used to frustrate the life out of me in MON's teams. McGeady and petrov being the chief culprits.

Being good to GS today, but maybe his 'zonal' system is a nod to the fact that his team are quite small and lacking height.
Therefore thees no point in man marking (though to me thats still no excuse).
Allowing movement and men making runs in the box is crazy hari kiri tactics.

GS signed most of the 'dwarfs' too.

O for a Mjallby, Sutton, Thommo, BBJ

Very good and uncannyily like the real thing! 


This is a cracker as well, 2 1/2 mins but well worth it, needs volume but be careful.

another terrible performance but a win, cant help but thinking this luck has to run out soon enough...

While I want the luck to continue, I am also hoping that the ineptitude will also 'run out'.

the players are capable of way more than they are currently achieving.
I honestly think that gs is holding them back through bad coaching and a very bad dressing room vibe.

Great to see Naylor supplying the crosses for both goals,
but how often does that happen !

Glad to hear it, hope he does well as he def has the talent, just doubts over fitness and application.
