    I remember watching the Celtic TV team mates segments last season. Most of the players quizzed said Calmac was the best player at the club. Seeing him getting moved to left back can't be very inspiring.

    I said he's deserves a lot of the blame, but there's a lot more people than Lawwell involved in the running of the club and he isn't responsible for overseeing absolutely everything.

    Comprende?

    At least we've got a Call of Duty team to watch on those magical winter nights.

    Was just leaving the stadium after the wife picked me up and he was trying to get out the stadium, lads in the car next were giving him pelters, big pistol stopped the car and started shouting 8 in a row, treble treble....a few times.

    Looked like a big * truth be told.

    4 signings. Only 1 started tonight.

    Jullien has been here for a month and a half. There’s no reason for him not to be match fit. Should have been fit enough to start both Kalju games.

    £3m on a left back who can’t be trusted in the biggest game so far. A * masterstroke of a signing.

    Elhamed seems decent but he was injured at the weekend and was the most recent of all of our signings. Thrown into the Cluj matches with only 50 odd minutes under his belt in a Celtic shirt beforehand.

    For the second season in a row we’ve failed to prepare for these games. Lennon should be kicking up a stink demanding signings but nah it’s the usual “hopefully after this tie we’ll look at getting a couple of players in”.

    There was over 10 million quid of defence purchased this Window by the current Manager sitting on the bench tonight deemed unready to help us qualify for the biggest games of the season. That isn’t Peter Lawwell’s fault.

    Conversely, the buck does stop with him if you want to blame Lenny. The guy he gave the job to in the first instance.

    Agree with this, if he is being hung out to dry and not being backed financially (as his previous comments of wanting players in suggest) then he should be saying so publicly and not protecting the board.

    If he is indeed happy with the squad as they are as some of his other contradictory comments suggest then he must shoulder the blame. Stevie Wonder would be able to see we need strengthened.

    I stopped reading at I'm a good poster



    I'm just looking at tonight's game on it's own merit. Had we maybe brought on Bitton/Jullien at 2-1 and shut up shop and gone through this thread would be dead (If your auntie had baws... I know). The major areas needing investment this summer was CB, LB and RB. we've spent 10/11 million on 2 players who the manager didn't trust to play tonight none of those reasons are the boards fault. I genuinely believe had Hayes gone in at LB and Mcgregor in the middle we would've strolled that tonight. We all see Mcgregors horror show at Ipox so I'm at a loss as to why any manager would throw him in there in our biggest game of the season.

    The squad had more than enough to get past Cluj and we should have but the managers poor tactics and team selection shafted us.

    The board shafted us at Hampden appointing Lennon
    Lennon shafted us tonight through his tactics and team choice

    That is essentially my point

    I agree but that wasn't Lawwells choice to put him there and have a 3 million LB and Hayes on the bench

    It really is history repeating itself with this board. How many times do we need to * up CL qualifying because of lack of investment before they are classified insane?

    Our club needs a complete overhaul from top to bottom our scouting system was ripped apart when the rat left! Never got addressed properly. We needed a RB and LB for at least 2 seasons ended up with Izzy back ffs great scouting that was. We’ve got Ralston as back up to Elhamed says everything you need to know.

    Sooner we get proper structures in place the better * the hotel we need to sort out other more important things in the club

    That’s what it comes down to really. The margins in these games are so small.

    Lennon * up tonight, but these results are really a symptom of chronic mismanagement from the very top. Why on earth we believe we’re remotely good enough to wing it at this level I have no idea.
