The Offical Glasgow Celtic thread

[illdecide]

100% right Chief. From the comments i heard NL was to be sacked only for the scum behaviour of the so called fans which is on par for the comments from a few on here who condone that behaviour. Dermot Desmond has basically said he will not bow down to that mob and he's right too but at the same time do not cut of your nose etc etc.

@SwissRamble on Twitter gives a good breakdown of the finances of the Scottish clubs. Not so rosy for Rangers

It'll be fine. They'll morales and they'll be in champions league next year.

Will they though...Moralles value is falling quicker than the Tyrone players and Sevco have to win the league first and also qualify after that...Not as straight forward as you think. Can go pear shape for them just as quick and easy as not.

What violence have you seen?  I've read of pressure being applied to a temporary fence, one angry fan and 3 officers with a minor ailment. 

Lennon should have resigned on sunday, he's a past hero now living inside a brain fart of his own creation  playing the mope card.
Where did this timidity come from?
This is a guy who played for NI while being booed by many or most of the crowd, who withstood  torrents of bigoted abuse all over Scotland year in year out and targeted  ugly abuse off the field. Now he plays the mope card when fans start shouting at him  to resign after he has presided over the worst run in Celtic post WW2. And clearly there's a disconnect not just between him and the players but the reality of being Celtic manager.

So Lennon is not being sacked. This is quite frankly incredible.

There's no way Lawwell should or can see this out. He is now in the direct firing line over this and with the support as riled as they are he would want to be upping his security detail significantly. Lawwell is destroying this club.

I would say the so called celtic supporters and their antics outside the ground last week back fired and the board are backing Lennon to show they won't be influenced by knuckle draggers like them.

Those fans are a joke they way they carried on at the weekend. That's no way to treat Lennon given the success he has brought them in the past both as a player and as a manager. Fans can absolutely protest and call for change without the need to start a riot. It's a shocking state of affairs when you claim the club should hire personal security for the protection of any employee of the club

I'm not saying Lennon should stay...far from it. I have publicly said he has to go, simple as that. I am not backing him in any way here, what i am saying is the way it's being done and the scum behaviour from some so called fans who think they can get their way by violence.
Dunno why you are casting up about playing for NI, whats that got to do with fans acting the bollix.

Angelo literally just said Lawell should up his security detail.

If I recall we all condemned the nonsense NL has had to put up with in the past, but now he's just being timid? Sounds like double standards.

To be clear, I think Lennon should go, I also think Lawell/Desmond were wrong not to sack him, but that shouldn't mean for a second that Lawell needs to up his security detail.

So the club are now running itself to spite the fans? What a f**king joke. It's Demond and Lawwell's mess that has got us into this situation and all they do is treat the fans with utter contempt for their mistakes. We're in the middle of a pandemic and 50k fans have forked out around 600 quid so they watch a few streams on the internet and support the club in the quest for the 10.

All this has shown is that the board have absolutely zero respect for the fans. They have no bother foisting their politics, putting war criminals and Tories in executive positions. We've came a long way from Brother Walfrid setting the club up to cater for the poor in the community when Lawwell is handing himself a £5m bonus for asset stripping and running down the club.

The only scum behaviour is from Desmond and Lawwell here.

I'm saying it as a reality.

This is only going to antagonise the fans further.

GAA referees have to get police escorts off the pitch from time to time, the more bizarre and biased their officiating the more protection they will need.

When Lawwell continues to rub the noses of an irate fan base further in it then he is going to draw more and more anger and resentment.

You're defending the indefensible as usual.

You're as wrong now as you were two months ago.

It was patently obvious that the reprehensible behaviour of fans on Sunday would make it impossible for the board to sack NL, and why should they be blackmailed into it by violence.

[JimStynes]

But sure it's to be expected according to Angelo. That's what happens. Let's wreck the camp.

I hope that's not true. What a crazy way to make critical business decisions.

Why do you think the fans did what they did? Just to sate a lust for a bit of wanton violence?

So the board are making their decisions to spite irate and disgruntled fans?

Wow.

From a guy who poured utter vitriol at Ronny Deila when things went wrong, you have taken a huge 180 on the respect a manager deserves when it's an Armagh man in charge. The situation now if far more precarious than when Deila was forced out.

You are a complete and utter hypocrite.
