There is nothin’ good about this evening but good evening anyway.

So, what’s the beef in the world famous player ratings (with added manager rating) and one sentence summary? I must admit that it’s a sad state of affairs when the only emotion that you can muster after 90 minutes is: Meh!

Here we go, your thoughts are always welcome.

The Summary

The false dawn reveals a stricken sinking ship that hasn’t enough lifeboats for the number of casualties.

    Getting back to the team guys it is quite clear that ‘the Celtic jersey does shrink to fit inferrior players’ and it has done for a good while. Ever since Mogga walked in the door and lambasted a team that had got out of the Champions League group stages twice the writing has been on the wall. What did Mogga ever win as a player? He was a poor centre half and a worse manager. Any manager who tells players they are not up to it and then expect those guys to go out and play for him is either an imbicle or incompetent. This game it is like the Godfather; ‘keep your friends close and enemies closer’. You tell everyone they’re great and gradually weed out the guys that don’t fit what you are trying to create. Lennon has just made the same mistake, and probaly his last. The guys that think its him he is talking about will now completely down tools and the other guys that are carrying them will realise that this is a lost cause. I really don’t care whether a manger is a Celtic man or not I just want a MANAGER who can manage. I said at the time Gordon Strachan was hounded out of our club that I thought that we would live to regret it. He was certainly not every ones cup of tea but he had a tactical nouse and could set a team up correctly. Can some one tell me what the point of Lennoxtown is if we produce a youth team that wins two doubles in a row and then nine of them are freed. The club is being run by professional business men in an amaturish fashion with no clue as to how football works with a piss poor business plan and that plan is actually making the club poorer by the year. We have just rewarded Kayal with a new contract one year into a four year deal to try and get him out of a strop when we have not won the league. This is rewarding failure!
    We need to get a Scottish spine into this team and get some dig on to the park. Teams are playing round and through us far too simply.

      I agree totally with the points you’ve made. I was astonished at Mowbray’s comments as well. He sounded like a man who had £50m to spend on top players. But all he needed to do to that squad was keep the best players happy and add the two or three new players that everyone knew were needed, the new players that the board should have financed for WGS.

      I also agree that we need someone at the club who actually knows how to build a team, and we need some more Scottish fight in the side.

    lennon has no choice in the matter .he leaves with some dignity having tried to do well for the club he loves. Or he’s forced out by the board because of massive resentment by the fans.incidently the mans class is nose diving with every interview. To blame your tools for making a ballocks of the job.shows how daft you think your audiance is.lawell go .you serve millionares not celtic supporters who sacrifice comforts for the club they love.

  • Paul Bhoy says:

    He has clearly lost the dressing room.

    Hooper and Stokes, hang your heads in shame after that half hearted performance. Who the hell do the 2 of them think they are?

    Lennon left it way to late to make any changes.
    2 men on Forrest for most of the game, decides to bring Mcourt on far to late and then brings on Sammi in the 83rd moment. Good grief!

    Sammi might be pish but he did at least try to mess it up a bit yesterday. Not like the rest of those over payed clowns out there.

    • lordofthewing says:

      It’s a sad day when you leav the game thinking that Sammy should have been brought on 20 minutes earlier.

  • Ruggygman says:

    Co Adriaanse
    top level experience… managed Poland more recently.. surely Poland weren’t paying top dollar

    • Celtic Daft says:

      i like Co Adriaanse as a manager, only thing is… he walked out of Porto in his first season because the Porto board were dictating who he signs & he showed he won’t take any interference & we know how the Celtic boardlike to interfere. Sack Lennon tho

      • lordofthewing says:

        So the solution you wish presents another problem? What have been saying for weeks? Getting rid of Lennon solves nothing.

  • Ruggygman says:

    i would even take a dream team of Barnes, Macari, and Brady over this.!!!

  • mick f says:

    hate to say it but it could be time for (theres only one king) Billy (thats) McNeill to return AGAIN, only joking although another few weeks of this & that might change. IF Lenny goes it’ll be a manager who is not working, our board wont pay compensation. Someone mentioned McGhee or where’s Roy Aitken these days? Mike Tyson in charge & the lazy team really would fear going in after a poor half. It pi$$ed me off last week listening to Lenny talking as if we where back to last seasons form.

    • lordofthewing says:

      It’s too late to bring in a mentor or a director of football. That’s bolting the door after the horse as bolted and been put down for glue.

  • Thai Tim says:

    When we get our next manager lets hope we employ someone with intelligence, strategy, organisational skills, motivational skills, someone who is a great tactition and ability to get the most out of players. Not just a name to appease fickle fans.

    As for the “if we sack Lennon who do we replace him with” brigade – is there ANY manager in Scotland worse than him? I doubt it! You see Lennon isn’t a manager. He isn’t qualified and never was. You only have to listen to his embarrassing interviews with the media to know he’s clueless. I’m just surprised and angry its taken the majority of the fans this long to realise this.

    Lennons mantra cry at the end of last season was “this is just the start”. Now the fans are asking “when will this end”! Lennon – do yourself a favour – walk before your faced with the indignity of being pushed out. Walk before you take Celtic down further, and please, take your useless bunch of rookie coaches with you.

    • lordofthewing says:

      So his 92 points last season was just a fluke then?

      • brido67 says:

        Ah the old 92 points again who cares what did it win us again.YEp last place in a 2 horse race and the way its going this season be nearer 72 points and a possible top 6 place YIPEE

        • lordofthewing says:

          Highest points total since Saint Martin. Off course it proved fruitless but are we just writing it off to beginners luck?

  • dastardly says:

    whilst i agree with the some of the comments made i still support Celtic and the management until as long as he is at Celtic i think it is Lennons tactics that are all wrong i hate the way we play but i have faith that Neil Lennon will get it right i am sure that if he does not then you will see changes in the management of Celtic at the end of the season.But until that happens i will fully support Lennon and so should all Celtic fans.

    • paranoidandroid says:

      We all support the team, come hell or high water. But if somethings broken, you cant blame people for wanting to fix it.

  • Giggsybhoy says:

    Been a Celtic fan all my life and I’m ashamed at the violence yesterday that showed up on our doorstep. The fans age getting restless and I don’t blame them but lets take this outside and make a stand for change. I was never taken in with all the hype surrounding Lennon, his self arrogance towards intelligent fans is a disgrace. He’s “enjoying the challenge to turn the team around” and “every manager goes through these periods and I’m glad and stronger for getting through it” What utter pish to put it mildly. He’s lost the dressing room big time, the players have lost faith and rightly so as him and his team are not up to the task.

    Rangers have a team spirit that gives them strength, belief in there Manager. we can only thank a Ref for playing six minutes of injury time never justified when only three minutes was put up on the board or we would have been more points behind when they drew the other week.

    What I’d give to have Paul L in that dressing room, a genuine guy that would not talk bollocks to keep the fans onside. I shudder to think what master stoke Lennon trys this week in the media.
    Lennon:
    “We have all had a big talk and all is good, we are Celtic, we play with pride to the best fans in the world, did I say we are Celtic yeah ok. It’s a difficult time but we are through it and it’s great to see the fans behind us you know the ones that are real Celtic fans, who are the best in the world”

    Yes Neil we are Celtic fans and we do take action when we feel the piss is being taken……

  • b2k says:

    Just a thought. I don’t know any Celtic fans who want Neil to stay. They all like him but still want him to leave for the good of Celtic.It hurts them to say it but despite all his love of Celtic and our love of him they see that it is not working.

    Now since Neil is a Celtic fan why can’t he see this himself and offer his resignation. The only possible reason for him to stay is that he is putting his own interests before those of the team we love.

    If he resigned with dignity we would all be able to thank him and sing his praise for years to come. The alternative scenario would be so sad, because he has tried, its just that he isn’t yet good enough.
