Next game very important. Last season we can back and went on a great run. Albeit we did have the winter break. It doesn't not look like we can turn it round. While I don't fully agree wirh Angelo I do think Lennon isn't up to the job at the moment

We may not be setting the world alight atm but we're still winning and I've no doubt the better performances are not far away. You're a disgrace if u call yourself a Celtic fan with the abuse you give the man in charge of the team u say u support.
Dunno how tomorrow's game will go but if we lose Lennon will get slaughtered and if we draw it'll be a bore and a roll of the eyes and if we win it'll just be a "ahh they're shite anyway" with no praise whatsoever to Lennon.

I support Celtic.

I'm not there to cheerlead the manager, the performances have been terrible thus far. We have played 13 significantly inferior teams so far this season and in the majority of those games we have been well underpar, we found ourselves dumped out of Europe by a team with a budget probably similar to Hibs and needing a last minute winner in Riga.

If Celtic lose on Sunday, Lennon will quite rightly be slaughtered, the warning signs have been there for some time now. We simply must win.

You point blank refuse to countenance any valid criticism of Lennon at all. Any criticism of him on this thread has been entirely valid but you seem to be too closely attached to him to comment on it objectively.

I wonder if it was Jock Fraser from Stirling who was in charge and returning the same performances and results would you be such a cheerleader for the manager?

Not all criticism, including your own, has been entirely valid.

So whats all the fuss about? Have many people died the last couple of weeks? What is an acceptable number of Deaths? Are we ever going to live life again? Is this all really worth it all these lock-downs/restrictions? Are we just going to live in this madness for the foreseeable future? What sort of life is this living in fear? I'd rather be dead!

Get busy living or get busy dying!

What a stupid thing to say

Did Lennon not do today what people have been asking him to do? He selected a side that most ppl would have been happy with. And he made good changes from the bench that won the game. Lennon definitely has his faults but the players need to take some responsibility as well. They're playing shite. The other crowd are still winning and they're completely shite! Celtic and Rangers are both very poor so far this year.

It doesn't matter what Lennon does. Or doesn't do. It will never be good enough for some people

If he was so out of his depth he probably would not have made game winning substitutions

Castor Troy - Face/Off

Which one was he? I always get the two mixed up

I nearly fell for that too.... ;)

Tommy DeVito - Goodfellas (Joe Pesci)

I was actually being serious  ;D

Nic Cage was him originally and he was a much better bad guy than Travolta

I see a new cross community club now starting up in Craigavon (Craigavon GAA). I thought there was enough clubs in the area without starting another one.

Where are you seeing this

Well TBH with the guys we have on here i wouldn't even try to defend NL on here but good performance (eventually) and scoring 5 goals away from home is perfect. His fav formation is 352 and we're at our strongest going forward playing that, he obviously didn't think the players he had at his disposal could pull that off for whatever reasons (not fit/sharp enough etc) but that's old ground so no point covering that just like the silly discussions about how Celtic would do in England when they play in Scotland.

Good to see Polish Paddy get a goal. Will do his confidence the world of good

What has former Celtic players got to do with the current team? They can't sell them twice. Of the current side only Edouard has been linked with a move away.

With clubs operating on reduced transfer budgets due to Covid 19 you would imagine they'd be looking for bargains where they hadn't done in the past yet for whatever reason clubs aren't making approaches for any of their players.

It proves that the league is, and remains, a source of talent good enough for the EPL.

As for the current Celtic side; McGregor is constantly linked with moves away to the EPL, as is Ntcham, as is Edouard, as is Ajer. Weirdly right now it looks like Celtics rouge left back is potentially away to Roma.

You obviously don't keep abreast of these things very closely - a quick google search and you'd have found links for all of the above.

Really don't. I did see Bollinger has nearly forced his way out after his trip to Spain didn't get him his transfer to a Spanish club.(he's an idiot)
I forgot about Nticham. For a lad who thinks he's too good for the SPL (that was funny when I seen it) he'd want to up his game. Problem he seems to have is motivating himself when you know your going to win easily week. Doesn't look interested some days.

So do you watch Scottish football or do you not? I'm confused

I watch the derbies. Watching Celtic/Rangers beat any of the other teams is irrelevant. They are so superior to them in terms of budget/squad size and ability they are nothing but mismatches. Sure you might get the odd fluke win here or there, but the fact Celtic are going for a treble treble of trophy wins with one of their weakest squads compared to previous teams/years says alot about the standard of opposition in the league.
So you only watch the derbies yet you comment on Scottish football with authority. Makes sense then.
