Paranoia is ripping through the Ibrox support as they prepare for another season of failure and the annual autumn change in management.

Five SPFL matches without a win alongside a 9-1 aggregate defeat in the Champions League has provided an unwelcome dose of reality after the euphoria of the ‘takeover’ and becoming the richest club in world football.

Concerns set in early in June when Fabrizio Romano tweeted that Russell Martin was about to be appointed as manager, those worries escalated when the former Southampton boss was presented to the media wearing a pair of trainers.

That lack of respect was followed by some soothing buzzwords and managerial chat that somehow got the former Southampton boss through seven rounds of interviews to land the job ahead of Jose Mourinho and Steven Gerrard.

Despite the grim results there appears to be no appetite for sacking Martin and installing a more traditional manager, taking to social media some bears are getting the chance to share their darkest concerns.

We’re heading for the Championship

Patrick Stewart is an Aberdeen supporter with a southern Irish passport

It just makes you completely wonder

Imagine a Celtic supporter got the Rangers job?

It does make you wonder, people wonder why you get paranoid when you think about things

I need to question where they are taking our club.

Similar content is available across fan media as they anticipate a League Cup exit at home to Hibs on Saturday, should the home side be successful it will ensure at least another week of Martin being in charge.

The next SPFL match will be a massive cultural contrast when Martin takes his squad of tippy-tappers to face Livingston, managed by potential successor Davie Martindale.

Had Gordon Strachan not selected Martin to play for Scotland he would have been just another no-mark Norwich City defender, unlikely to have moved on loan to Ibrox in 2018. Strachan? it does make you wonder…

Joe McHugh has edited 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.

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 the ongoing successes of Celtic.

    That clip from sevco radio …
    Celtic fans buying sevco shares,then putting someone in there with an Irish passport, what the F**K has that got to do Americans putting money into their klub.
    THEY ARE TOTALLY OFF THE RADAR.

    And as for sacking Martin just who do they bring in, I haven’t heard one name nit one name coming in to replace him.
    So they sack him and his backroom staff before the Hibs game, who takes the team fir Saturday, better still who picks the F*****G team.

    What price Gerrard?

    The yanks will already be considering having to spunk 3m to Martin in a payoff and a real fear that whoever comes in its gonna be the same before a years out.
    Doubt they factored in a fanbase of complete yahoos when they were seeing where the profit was coming from.
    These bampots have gotten everything they’ve ever screamed for, from compliant and feart suits wi money via pressure from their media fanboys.
    There is no way the yanks will yield to that over time.
    They will either dig their heels in or sell it on.
    They ain’t a big Dougie.
    Then it all starts all over again.
    The problem will forever be “ its the same club”.
    That’s the achilles heel.
    That’s what no owner can ever fix.

    I can’t really see Strachan as the Machiavellian character in all this…. he wouldnae understand the concept – he’s fae Muirhoose.

  • Clachnacuddin and the Hoops says:

    Aye – The Yankee Doodles are truly seeing The Sevco Hun Hoards for exactly what they are like now…
