The Offical Glasgow Celtic thread

Commentator cannot pronounce Shaughnessy, lol.

Big John McEntee slots one home, quality operator when he's in the mood

Kenny looks solid enough.

Frimpong had basically turned into a headless chicken the past few months.

And we've also managed to get rid of that dumpling Elhamed.

What do yous think of Welsh, with a bit of proper coaching (for another day) could he be decent?

I don't think so, he's had a Stephen McManus/Darren O'Dea type ascension in that he has came in during an injury/defensive crisis and done ok relative to what was there before him.

Think he lacks stature and speed for a start.

Kiss of death on Welsh, here's Duffy!!

A pity they could not have found this form a few weeks back.

If they booted Lennon in November, they'd still be in a title race.

Definitely.

Rangers aren't that good and they certainly don't handle pressure well. It would very interesting what would happen if they were to drop 5/6 points in their next 4 league games. In that scenario the gap could conceivably fall to 9/10 points with Celtic having 2 games against Rangers to come. No doubt the masons will ride to their rescue but it would be interesting to see how they handle it.

[Targetman]

I've no doubt we've better players, a lot have underperformed this season but just to repeat the obvious the mismanagement of the club on and off the field is gonna cost us dearly, and is there a chance that Lennon will be there next season?

[Main Street]

That was an ugly tackle on Welsh,  careless, lazy, no skill,  just plain ugly.

If only Celtic hadn't dropped so many points after returning from Dubai, they'd still be in a title race ... if only indeed.  Presently 18 behind with a game in hand, and another potential 6 points against Rangers, to put them 9 behind.  January has been a telling month for Celtic ... if only.

Definitely. Had the board done the right thing and got rid of Lennon the title race be well and truly on. Look at two implosions Gerrard's Rangers have made after Christmas before, when they feel the heat they don't handle it well.

I would put Celtic's chances at less than 1% but it would be brilliant it Rangers dropped some more points over the next 4 games just to get those doubts raising their head with them. Their form has certainly tailed off, a lot of 1-0 wins and dodgy refereeing calls since the turn of the year for them have papered over the cracks.

Lennon should have been gone by halloween. The implosion from Rangers didn't happen and their form in Europe and the league has been brilliant. It's depressing looking at the league table and the games feel like friendly matches now with nothing to play for. A complete shit show of a season.

The reason their league form hasn't collapsed is that they have been playing pressure free. Celtic have crumbled at every point and left it open for a procession through.

Had we been able to sustain pressure on them I would foresee many more dropped points.
