Roy Keane

Aye, Ronny was the assistant

 

I am so glad he never got the job for whatever reason I am just thankful.

 

He one of my favourite players of all time and so happy he pulled on the hoops.

Ego, demons and zero man management skills = disaster as Celtic manager.

He's a pish pundit too, looks as if he's being forced against his will to give a critique.:smiley-laughing002:

 

"So you want a fight, is it, Ronnie? I'll give ya a fight, so!" He'd make an already fragile situation a powder keg. Like unleashing a bull in a china-shop. I like him though, he's just...volatile. Not exactly what we need at the mo. :smiley-laughing002:

 

I find it difficult to disagree with anything Roy Keane says most of the time

 

What he said about us celebrating qualification and needing to set our ambitions higher etc, spot on.

Disagree with a few things he has said, as I do with Sutton quite a bit more, but with these kind of things they are both absolutely spot on.

He was right about the mindset.

 

He is right but he's ignoring the overspill of sheer joy at the two years of frustration previous to that.

 

Were we really just celebrating qualifying though? I thought it was more a mixture of things like Brendan achieving that ahead of schedule, the funds it should raise for transfers, the players it could attract, the Europa League disaster last season, as well as thinking of big teams and big nights again.

It wasn't just a case of yay we're going to hear the CL music again. I think most fans are quite aware of our status, why we hired Brendan and how we are in the process of rebuilding the team. We couldn't even compete at the Europa Level last season so of course it's a sign of progress being back in the CL. That is our ambition and where we feel we belong. Nothing wrong with feeling excited about it.

Next season is when I'll be hoping we can qualify and start taking points off a couple of big teams. At least that is the dream under Brendan and he's already brought such a buzz back it feels possible it'll happen.

Anyway, Leverkusen got pumped 7 1 not that long ago and it was just an unlucky night for them, why is it the end of the world for us?

 

Keane is absolutely spot on. Losing 7-0 to anybody is an absolute joke. Sure there's a gulf in class, but the team need to at least get the fundamentals right.

 

Qualifying for the CL would be in 99.99% of every Celtic fan's pre season wish list.

Keane can go and take a * to himself.

 

The guy is a * trying to make himself sound knowledgable .
He proved that when he came here to fulfil his ego and he didn't set the heather on fire with his displays on the pitch .

 

I don't think anything he said was that bad.

He just made the point that we have to respect ourselves more and stop with this wee team mentality that has set in.

Our players look like shitebags at times, they barely got near Barca, showed far too much respect.

 

He was 100% right .its not Altrincham its celtic

 

A lot of teams barely get near Barca, it's got hee haw to do with a wee team mentality.

 

I agree totally with Keane, same as Chris Sutton, they tell it like it is. And some folk on here can't handle the truth. They want Celtic wrapped in cotton wool all the time. - we shat it the other night and stood off them, I don't know what they do training wise in Spain, but they seem to be a * of a lot fitter,faster, and willing to fight to get the ball back.

 

That will be the hundreds of millions more they have to spend on fitness coaches and sports scientists.

I'm not surprised you turned up though.
