    Sorry cheif, I'm not the biggest Scot Brown fan at the moment but when Brown 1st came here(even through aw his temperment, family problems) the guy showed some proper class skills.

    Gordon Strachan was 100% right to stick up for his teams and the players that played for him. Mowbray is a *, he is a loser!

    But putting Brown in alongside McGeady, Maloney, and Nakamura? Come on now, Brown is an engine midfielder; always working. Not a technical midfielder. It's like comparing apples and oranges.

    this is what TM needs to understand he needs to get the team to adapt he just shoves out any old team and expects them to play good football playing tiny mcdonald on his own against a big defender and punting balls up to him aint gonna work is it in my view bad management his man management skills are * aswell he needs to try and get best out the players ffs i beleive TM can be a very good manager but he needs to change his management slightly

    We were * practically all of last season and Mogga has inherited a team dead on its feet.
    TM is right when he said we might need up to 10 new players.
    WGS got out at the right time and poor Mogga is left to try and pick up the pieces.
    One tough job on his hands thats for sure.

    You must be joking mate, the strachan team lost about 21 points from the turn of the year up to the final game of last season. The team he left TM was crap. Strachan had a good 1st season cos he had MONs team, steadily over the next 3 seasons that team got worse. The only reason he won the SPL in those years was because the huns were *.
    If strachan wants to have a go at TM he should think before he speaks, its a strachan team TMs got just now.

    Strachan mandate for the Celtic job was to reduce the wage bill and reduce the age of the squad. The reduction in quality in the squad was down to the restrictions imposed on him BY THE BOARD.

    I'm mystfied that people continually blame Strachan when its been explained by him, Lawwell, the media, on TC what was going to happen over Strachan's tenure yet people continue to be shocked and upset it.

    Yes the PLC thats another problem we have. Strachan did take us into the last 16 twice in the champ league etc, but the board should have help him out too. Last summer he needed to strengthen the team, but the board didnt budge, then they got screwed big time when the huns bought players in the last week of the transfere window.
    Then last January, we could have bought Fletcher for example and we would have stood a better than even chance of doing 4 IAR.

    I blame the league that we are in, the collapse of Setanta not the PLC. They have done the right thing in bring expenditure into line with turnover.

    typical dillussional Strachan hater nonsense. First of all lets look at the 1st of WGS's SPLs. Remember MON's had lost the league on the last day to the Rangers side WGS faced. WGS took over and all he did was turf out some of MON's past their best dead wood, signed and slotted Naka, Artur and Magic in and promoted Maloney. He for an outlay of about 5 million for these players transformed MON's losing side into one that took Rangers to the cleaners. As for WGs's last SPL title, Rangers got to the UEFA final FFS. You do not fluke through that many ties. They were a tough tough team then, probably their best side in about 8 years.

    So, let this St. Martin nonsense go. He lost 2 of his last 3 SPLs and essentially let the side run down by not signing a new first pick player in 4.5 years till the side was in a very bad way full of old players with little left in the engine. He proved himself incapable of finding players in thie period because he was suddenly looking at the same sort of budget that WGS would later have to deal with. WGS had more success in much harder times in terms of our abiity to sign players. Only a baised person would think MON was a better manager than WGS because it just doesnt stand up to the facts. In the pantheon of Celtic greats its Stein, Mailey, Strachan and O'Neil in that order and nobody else is even close. About time some of the haters (not all of them) wised up and recognised the nasty biases that lurk below why they love MON and hate WGS.

    I have read some * in here - I always support any manager, who ever he is, I do think however it does appear that TB has lost the dressing room, in some respect.

    it's sad to see some people ain't able to give our managers a chance (that includes some time). I also wonder, why some (excuse me the following words, don't like to use them at all) strachan-fans ain't willing to give TM a fair chance? they have been asking everybody in the past 4 years to give WGS a fair chance, because he had been receiving dogs abuse from way too many supporters. now they are going on the same level as the WGS abusers? shame celtic have become a place for personal issues and vendettas and not even 95% of celtic supporters are able to get behind the team and manager.

    we ain't working together ladies and gentlemen, we are working against eachother. if everybody could drop their ego for a second and pull together, I'm sure we would be more successfull on and especially off the pitch. we have to respect eachother and become an unit again. may be our team is having the same problem at the moment...

    the way I see it, WGS has spoilt us with success. especially in his first season, when he won the league. that's a great achievement and to day still extremely underestimated.

    if you have to work with our current ressources, it's far from easy to create a new team and win the league. everyone involved is under a lot of pressure, everybody expects us to win every game.

    rebuilding a team and getting used to a new way of playing football takes some time. I expected WGS to need at least 2 seasons and I'm willing to give TM 2 seasons too. as I said before, WGS did a terrific job, especially in his first season, I doubt many managers could do that.

    get behind the team, show some patience and get behind TM.

    So, "I don't want to comment on what Tony might have said" is considered an 'attack' by Strachan on Mowbray.

    What a load of absolute *!!!

    However, this is not unexpected from the rags. More annoying is that people are actually hoodwinked by this pitiful excuse for journalism, spouting bile like "Strachan needs to shut his *' mouth" etc etc.

    Can i ask you if you were happy when strachan was appointed?


    'cause lets be honest his C.V wasn't exactly impressive beforehand.

    Also, There seems to be this notion that strachan worked on a limited budget. He did spend the same, if not more than MON in a shorter space of time. I'll give him his due he did sell on players to re coup cash (duds mainly) but this idea that he had * all to spend is ludicrious.

    As is the theory that he wasnt liked because he wasnt a celtic man.
