Brutal stuff. Nowhere near Champion's League level and rightly heading out of the competition.

should have been out of sight in both legs with loads of missed chances and then the inevitable happens. Manager has to take blame tonight. He simply can't leave Eddy and Christie on for 120 mins. You're 2 men down with that pair on the pitch. Doesn't matter a lot in the overall scheme of things as PSV will destroy them. Celtic need to hang in there in the league though and don't allow sevco put a gap on them

Atrocious stuff. Forrest had a virtual sitter to make it 2-0 and instead, like f**king clockwork, we concede immediately at the other end. Midtjylland are a team Celtic should have had no fear of and even though we controlled the first half we still managed to resort to type. That back four wouldn't get on in the Irish league

Du Wei would be an improvement to that Celtic defence.

The new manager won't be there by Halloween. That is brutal. Absolutely woeful again.

Why, not like they are all his players? He inherited a poor team,  which will take a while for any managers to rebuild
Then others like Edouard who doesn't want to be there.

Rangers beat Madrid lately and Celtic are going to find it hard next season
None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought. Ea

Easier for the board to bury the manager than admit culpability of years of under-investment.

He's just in the door, trying to patch a team together, and we're talking about getting rid of him already .... going to take a couple of seasons to get Celtic competitive again, anyone who thinks they will challenge in Scotland this year are mistaken.  They may concede 2 or 3 in a row to Rangers before Celtic are challengers again imo.

As others have said, he's going to be the fall guy for a lot of deadwood that is currently stinking the place out. This is Celtic, he needs to be winning matches otherwise fans will be calling for his head. However, Lennon seemed to last near enough a full season without getting the road so who knows.

I think even the biggest numbskull Celtic fans (& Celtic are doubly blessed there) know the shitty hand he's been dealt, I think he'll get more patience than normal. Judging by his post match comments he's not going to be a board lackey.- "I obviously haven't done a good enough job of convincing people we need players in"

Don't agree. I think they'll do nothing in Europe but if they can keep in touch for a couple of months they stand a good chance in the league. Obviously they need signings but assuming that happens the gap isn't that big. Sevco are massively overrated

Celtic fans calling them sevco just reminds everyone of the fact that you lost the league to a team with zero history or prestige. You'd be better off calling them Rangers.

Difficult to understand the mentality of Celtic fans. It's a farmer's league with players who are league 2 standard. Celtic would do well to be in the top 4 of the Irish League. Just because the stadium is full doesn't mean the football is any good. They attract a lot of fans due to the sectarian element. This can't be overlooked. Unfortunately it doesn't help them win football matches.
