    Stokes was our best player for a time under Ronny, playing on the left of a 4-2-3-1. Mad to think he couldn't get a look into the Irish squad at that time and if he was in that kind of form now he'd be starting for his country.

    Ya * it, Tony.

    Stokesy wasn't in any shape or form harshly treated by Lennon.

    He got chance after chance after chance and still couldn't be professional enough to take a telling.

    Nothing personal against him, but as a man with a * given talent to play the game that most of us could only dream of, he's a *.

    Him and Hooper had a cracking partnership and every big game he got dropped no matter how good he was playing, that’s what I meant by that.

    Aye, the "Stooper" partnership was electric mate, think ironically it was after we bear Aberdeen (or might have been Motherwell) 8-0 at CP that particular duo was more or less split up.

    Was disgusted by it at the time, , but since then I've been told it was mainly due to Stokes being an immature *.

    Wouldn’t bet against it but to imply that Lenny was all buddy buddy with him is far from the truth.

    It is indeed.

    He was given chance after chance after chance and * his Celtic career up himself.

    No one else to blame but Anthony Stokes.

    I think we all agree Stokesy was a very talented player but never seemed to buckle down and seemed easily distracted in his personal life .

    Stokes ran riot for Hibs against the Huns in the cup final, preventing Sevco winning a major trophy and easing the pain of the semifinal a wee bit.

    I'll be forever grateful.

    Pity he couldnt run riot against the huns when he played for Celtic ..I don't think he scored against them once infact someone said that Andy Patton scored more goals against rangers than stokes lol .unlike Hooper who scored in the big games for Celtic that's why he was always picked ahead off stokes
