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

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.

That's not even a decent attempt at trolling.

I like a wee Trailer windup but that was poor enough to be fair. I miss Angelo,

If we can do enough to stop a Rangers Treble I'll not be happy but I would be content

A poor man's Angelo. Lacks the panache that is required to wind up successfully.

Jesus couldn't raise that Celtic team. Outside of Ralston no outfield player sustained an effort all night. Christie and McGregor faded, and Edouard is not with £20 let alone £20M.
Under investment from last couple of years coming home to roost. But sure the fans will moan but still buy the merchandise and the season books.

Edouard is going to play himself out of a decent move if he doesn't catch himself on. A year or 2 ago big teams were sniffing around him. Now it looks like he couldn't be bothered get stripped for Celtic. I still think there should have been enough talent in that squad to get a win against some team that from Europe that people haven't heard of.

Serious question - How good was Edouard a season or two back - My Celtic supporting pal used to be rave about him but I've never seen him do much / been that impressed.
