With no starlets arriving at Ibrox this week or midweek matches to preview the sacking of Jesse Marsch has provided the Daily Record with some welcome content.
Every EPL managerial vacancy is quickly followed by speculation linking AN Other with a swoop for Ange Postecoglou- the sort of theory that brings a warm glow to the hearts of the Record’s army of readers.
When the former Yokohama F Marinos boss was introduced as the new Celtic manager in May 2021 it only added to the celebrations associated with winning the Lockdown title.
On top of trashing George Square to celebrate winning a football trophy the loyal bears could look across the city, gloat and take in Dave King’s House of Cards prediction.
After laughing at a fifty-something Australian trying to take on the might of Steven Gerrard’s Invincible s (except for cup competitions) there was sneering at the arrival of Kyogo Furuhashi who was never likely to be dubbed El Buffalo by the failing Glasgow publisher.
Now onto his third Ibrox opponent, Postecoglou has turned out to be the real deal with a nine point lead and massive goal difference cushion over Mister Beale’s side.
At some stage Postecoglou will leave Celtic, it could be in the next 18 months but only the gullible and deluded would be going all in on the hoops boss jumping ship to try and prevent Leeds United being relegated. Giovanni van Bronckhorst and Mister Gerrard don’t seem to be among the list of candidates for the vacancy.
Meanwhile the search continues in Motherwell for billionaires.

But he’s not got much to say about a decade of financial doping at Manchester City.

The Daily Rectum disappearing up its own arse in the not to distant future.
It just goes to show how utterly and viscerally shit scared they are of Ange and us.
“Ohhh PLEASE make him go away. PLEASE make the pain stop.
They’ve got Postecoglu and we’ve got old rubber face Mickey Mole. Boo hoo hoo!”
Still pishin maself laughin at these fannies.
Easy to dismiss swapping trophies and the CL – for a relegation battle at Leeds.
But, what if it was, [unlikely perhaps], say, Liverpool who actually showed an interest?
Would any of us grudge Ange taking that opportunity?
I just hope that Ange is NOT on the standard / cheap 12 months rolling contract…?
If there is any sign of our club consistingly winning everything (provided they don’t get cheated)and it looks like sevco are getting left behind the finance factor will kick in,the board will f**k up again and a Lennon special situation will be allowed to happen to keep sevco on board for that blue£ our own club crave,and sevco will take the title back.
Remember when money comes in the door loyalty goes out the window.
motormouth mick would be the cheaper option !!! he could even bring kent davis jack lardass ar$efield and a few more with him !!! haw !!!!!!!!! chortle
After watching the big man smash it in his first two seasons
The Laptop Loyal are absolutely terrified about the third
Oi! Wot are you finkin of? There’s only one SPL manager who is furrully suited to manage in the Prem – an’ ‘at’s me!
Just because I’m super loyal to Gwasgow Wangers and would nevva fink of abandoning them mid season like wot the Scouser done, don’t mean that I’m not on Leeds radar.
Not that I would fink of stabbing Jesse in the back but, he’s froo, innit? He’s done, frown on the scarp heap. He’s like Billy the Kant to my Pat Carrot. I am the peepo!
Love, Mick
