1. Said all along, there won’t be any signing unless it’s a couple of desperate ones on deadline day. Nicholson has to go. T even with Martin O Neil the title is in the balance.I ll take a couple more loans. This season is now about winning the league nothing else.
   Brian Wilson want to show unity let fan media back in and the GREEN brigade back to games.

   1. Winning the league this season Simon is in severe jeopardy,I noticed sevco have been strengthening as hearts have as well,while our lot twiddle their thumbs,I hope they’ve not got MON in to be a patsy,but regards despairing about this boards lack of vision, Celtic park is still full for home games,how is that showing this board we mean business,a half empty stadium on televised games would make a statement but as the faithful/ gullible, through and through keep the ground full,the board are sitting all smug and self satisfied at the plebs who hand over their money.

2. Like Germany did not belong to the Nazis in the thirties, Celtic FC does not belong to the plc. They know this as well as anybody else!
   You can learn from history if you are willing to examine it and draw conclusions.
   For them, the manager really IS the football side of the club. They are grinding the club down, by running it in their own peculiar and unique way!

   1. We all know how reprehensible this board is , they are taking us for mugs stop giving them your money

3. I have no doubt that the board are determined to recoup Nancy’s pay-off from this window’s transfer pot.

   The support want a strong team on the park playing exciting attacking football, winning titles and trophies. We want to see progress in Europe year on year.

   All the board care about is balancing the books and racking up profits. The profits should be strengthening the team. It’s beyond silly when the club is spending more of our money on corporation tax than on transfers. This cheapskate, cynical board has completely lost the plot. Sack the lot of the them.

   1. Agreed.

      Wouldn’t be surprised – at all – if the Board’s priority this window is to try and offset the

      not insignificant recruitment and termination costs for Nancy and his backroom team.

      Additionally, they could be looking to offset the drop in merch and match day revenues?

      Maybe that is why the Board is STILL dragging its feet with a striker, etc…. ?

      Maybe it’s DD’s way of ‘punishing’ us ungrateful customers?

4. What Celtic have just done to Motherwell and to Stephen Welsh is utterly disgusting.
   Welsh is at a fine club and playing regularly. Neither Welsh nor Motherwell are responsible for the effin state Celtic are in. Only the selfish and utterly incompetent board are responsible. Celtic fans need to wise up. Action, NOT threats are in order. Tough love is needed now. We are letting this board treat us like dirt. Stop the income!

   1. It is if they are looking down on Working Class Celtic Fans??

      1. You think? Of course they are.

5. MON chose to come back – again – as interim manager, and he knows exactly

   how things work [or not] at the club.

   Yes, he is a useful buffer for the Board to buy them some time: there is huge goodwill

   for MON, which the Board is brazenly exploiting.

   But, at his age and level of experience, MON is in a unique position to potentially help

   force change – and quicker?

   He could choose to be very vocal, criticising the Board, the failing recruitment, etc. –

   and he could loudly demand change and improvements right across the club?

   MON is bullet proof, and can say what he wants: he’s there until season end.

   It seems [?] that he is pals with DD, but he must be aware of his legacy at the club,

   and the opportunity he has to ruffle some feathers – ultimately for the good of the club?

   This has to be MON’s last manager role anyway: what has he got to lose…?

6. Who knows what goes on behind closed doors , but I would have thought that when Mr Desmond asked Martin O’Neil back to repair the Nancy damage for a third time, Mr O’Neill would have ‘ demanded ‘ a few guarantees from the big boss especially in the recruitment department ..as in we desperately need 4 players minimum with a striker as of paramount importance ? Serious guarantees! The man is a super intelligent guy with the respect of all his peers . I don’t think he would put his reputation on the line without insisting on fresh faces and players as a pre condition on taking the head coach job until the end of the season just to stay pals with the champion amateur golfer of the Southern Hemisphere circuits ….not for a nanosecond !

7. I was delighted that Martin told the dottery old Fu**ers to GTF today on their imbicillic ‘projects’ that they tried to fling on him !
