Paranoid Barry Ferguson lashes out

Barry Ferguson believes that he has been disrespected for being Scottish.

In his third senior manager’s job, following on from stints at Clyde and Alloa, Ferguson has maintained a win ratio of around 30%.

His only success in management was at Kelty Hearts where they stormed to the Lowland League title ahead of Edinburgh University, Civil Service Strollers, Cumbernauld Colts and Caledonian Braves.

Being staunch and getting it doesn’t carry much weight in management with rookie bosses Michael Wimmer and David Gray having won as many matches this year at Ibrox as Ferguson.

Hosting media conferences has been a real strain for Ferguson, with two matches left as interim boss his paranoia has increased as he realises that on Saturday his stint in the dug out will come to an end.

Until mid February Ferguson was part of the media circuit, sharing his thoughts with the Daily Record and Go Radio.

For most Scottish reporters he is something of a hero, the player that they grew up admiring and wanting to emulate.

His record as interim boss is much worse than Phil Clement and miles behind that of Micky Beale.

Ferguson’s weekend media conferences should be epic, especially if he is laughed at and ridiculed through Saturday’s match away to Hibs.

A crowd of around 30,000 is expected at Ibrox as this season’s serial losers bring their home campaign to an end, by the time the players take their lap of honour there is unlikely to be more than 5,000 loyal bears in the stadium.

Joe McHugh has been Video Celts since 2010, every day covering events in and around Scotland's most successful club.
When a six year stretch at the Sunday Mirror came to an end it was clear that the future was digital, print had ran its race.
Smart phones and social media created a new landscape, Video Celts has certainly made an impact with Joe described as having an unhealthy obsession by Peter Lawwell at the 2024 Celtic AGM. A priceless endorsement, cheers big man.
There are issues breaking around the clock, no two days are the same more than 50 years on from his first match Joe is enjoying every success for Scotland's Most Successful Club.

    Lol wee Barry being wee Barry and acting like a FUD. Can you imagine a full season with him in charge and for it all to fall apart worse than it is just now,that would be brilliant.
    Sitting back and watching bear turn on bear bigot turn on bigot while it’s all wee Barry’s fault, but remember it’s because he’s Scottish.

    It will interesting to see how they spin when they break the news the FAKEOVER is no more, or even if it was to go ahead but the money the media put out there being available for new players and the complete rebuild of the team the stadium and the training complex doesn’t exist.
    They will probably push it out there as a 5-10 year project with so many millions being spent over that period, with it being a long term project.

    Looking at that picture above there was more at the Thistle v Livingston game last night than the sevco game.

    sevco will announce that Bazza has been punted – and that the takeover is not happening?

    • Clachnacuddin and the Hoops says:

      I’d say it would be a POSITIVE for The Sevco Hun Hoards if ‘Bazza’ (Fergushun) was punted Bob (original) !
