    What is it that a lot of you really dont like about wgs , forget his tv interviews which i think we can do without,as JPR21 has stated above ,whats the problem ,cos he payed for the sheep ,cos hes no a celtic man ,cos hes got red hair .His record is second to none ,if he won the champs league ,yous lot would still find fault ,and by the way the way yous all talk ,is how * the team are ,ok, so if wgs had a team playing well or a good team wonder how far then we would have went in the champs league ,this guy has made a few dodgy buys ,agreed ,at the time when he went for caldwell i didnt really here anything gettin said cos he was a good player at hibs ,when he bought scot brown same ,donati same and so on ,most people were saying * me hes some player ,we will take some beaten now ,winding up the huns over scot brown ,do i need to go on.Now the same people do nothing but criticisee the same players week in week out.Yes GS bought them simply because hes seen the same as us ,all the players he has bought were all playing well for there teams at that time ,the newest one was robson ,he was playing out of his skin at utd ,but allready theres been a couple of snide comments about him ,before the transfer window a lot of celtic fans fancied him at parkhead and so did GS he reacted and went and bought him ,so he is delivering the players that are doing well at there clubs ,robson is just an example btw,so what else can this man do ,and what has he done

    gravesen was a good signing in terms of football not WGS fault the guys a complete *. agreed these are largely poor signings....but kenny miller we got good money for, and on a free, we took a chance on him, he wasn't on big wages and scored a few important goals....we made nice profit too. he wernt a disaster anyway. Virgo by far WGS darkest hour. Killen hasn't played much he is just an inexpensive squad player.
    His good signings have been that good that they outweigh the bad.

    and martin can do no wrong O'neill made all fantastic signings dint he.....

    magnus hedman
    stephane henchoz
    ulrik laursen
    henri camara

    world beaters one and all.....im a huge fan of MON and using this example to say you can compile a list of duds most managers signed...even SAF

    For the record I for one was never excited by most of the players you mentioned in your post prior to them becoming Celtic players.

    However even if I was excited it is not my job to identify these players and sign them to make a team.Unfortunately this was left up to WGS and IMO most of his signings have been duds and our team are mediocre at best unlike some of you I am unwilling to accept such low standards.

    Now that is where this hatred as you put it not my words of WGS comes from.

    the facts are simple WGS has done a fantastic job. you lot are against him because he isn't celtic through and through and he played for aberdeen...its nothing to do with his football ffs....if MON or Roy "im irish so they'll love me" Keane done the same job ud be showering him with compliments

    No offence Chucky but you've been on here a month and have stirred up a lot of bad feeling on our Forum.
    I'm all for debate, but sending smartass snidey remarks to people who dont have the same opinion is a bit *......

    Any huns viewing this forum must be pishing thereselves at us arguing amongst ourselves.....
