Granted hearts and Roma are decent. But St Mirren and Dundee united

A rangers plant couldn't even lose 4 in a row FFS and considering before he arrived they were flying it's just unbelievable. Get him out, the longer he is there the less time to salvage the season

Absolutely brutal second half, as for Johnny Kenny, be better off with Pat Kenny!!

Out to f**k. There's no saving this now.

Some disappointing reactions here from so called Celtic fans refusing watch game and looking manager out after 4 games.

Baffling all the same that MON wasn't put in place to end of season, especially if they knew that a new manager was going implement a new formation, at least being him in the summer and five him a few months implement things on training ground.

It looks like the players have no faith in the new formation. Dundee bossed the 2nd half. Need to go to a  back 4 to stop leaking goals ...otherwise he needs to go

Some of those players have completely downed tools as well. Couple have their feet half way out the door this last few months.
This is the worst I've felt about a Celtic manager since the John Barnes era. I don't know how he can he stay on at this stage. And what f**king idiot  thought it was a good idea to let him loose in the middle of the most important part of the whole season.

Should have stuck with Martin

Who is this new guy anyway? What's he done before  coming to Celtic?

Brought back a club legend with unfinished business in Europe, won 7 in 8, binned him off for a Tropic Thunder extra, this will go down in the annals thats for sure

Unfortunately, the manager has put himself, the club and the team in a very bad position. Anyone who is so wedded to their idea of how football should be played e.g. 3-4-3 and isn't prepared to assess a squad before making changes is not acting like a top-class manager. Anyone with knowledge of football who thought the current Celtic squad is suited to playing 3-4-3 is looking at a different set of players to me. It may just be possible with everyone fit but in the current situation it certainly is not.
He should have come in stuck with the same formation (though it was no great shakes) and improved on the aspects they have been bad at - corners, throws, keeping possession then most importantly creating and taking chances.
MO'N stuck to the basics and won some games the limitations were clear in the Roma match, but they showed against Feyenoord that a decent team could be put on the field.
They may stumble to a league title this year as regardless of Celtic's performances the rest are no better but the management is going to need to replace a hell of a lot of players including the good ones if they are going to stick with their ideas.

Bit like Amorim at United, very ingrained ideas of the way football has to be played. You'd wonder are they picking this up from the UEFA coaching badge courses. Nancy is throwing away a decent career opportunity here.

All of which the Board would have known when hiring him. There would have been conversations about formations and the type of recruitment he would need to help the squad and team to play said system.

Not sure as has been seen at United, that trying to implement a new style mid season is the best of ideas.

He just needs to go, there is no otherwise. There is a transfer window coming up which at the moment can only inspire trepidation. However Wilfried is just a symptom, he was sought out by the charlatan Head of Sport who also needs to be chucked out. But who'll make that decision?

 Aberdeen are up next and 11/1 to win, odds which may well looks very attractive to a betting person.  Their season has turned around  since their  (shock) late loan signing of Jesper Karlsson, who's a stand out classy attacking midfielder, a coup for Aberdeen, one that Celtic should've signed but not in a million years with the current management set up.

The only plus point is that there are some hilarious pics and videos doing the rounds regarding the whole Nancy SNAFU

Nearly time to ask if Fergus McCann will do another stint?
