    We need elhamed playing right back and frimpong in front of him and bring Christie into the middle with McGregor. Ntcham has had enough chances now and can't be relied on but the way it's looking just now no matter what formation we try they don't look like turning this round with the present management team.

    Don't have faith in winning the league. We've had maybe three good performances at most this season. I pray for Huns collapse because that's the only way we're going to win the league because the way we're playing it's not gonning to happen. Got no hope. My heart says we can do it but my head has conceded the league to them. Probably my emotions getting to me.

    Except from the heat of the moment under a game, I won’t judge any player until we have a competent football manager and coaching staff.

    Remember seeing before and after pictures of players, especially Tierney, when Rodgers had been here for a few months.

    Absolutely crazy difference in the professionalism all around everything now. Fat * “not being fit” according to Lennon. But how come they are not fit? No respect for him? * diet? Bad training?

    Doesn’t matter how you spin this, it’s all Lennons fault because they are 1. Following his setup, or 2. Not respecting it.

    Celtic FC is in many aspects one of the biggest football clubs in the world, and should always and do always aim for the best options within realistic frames.

    That should also be the case when it comes to arguably the most important position in the whole sporting side of the club. The manager.

    Just like it took months for Rodgers to build super strong athletes that everyone fevered facing in our league, it took months of Lennons setup to lose all that.

    What worries me is that this is what we are witnessing now.

    Needs to go pronto.

    Honestly though mate, we have been poor and Lennon deserves aw the crictism he’s getting at the moment, but Christ Celtic fans who are conceding a league that we are 3 points behind in with 81 points still to play for and seen on many occasions how things can change, we’ve still to play them 3 times, they’ve had upper hand last few games but can easily swing back and if it doesn’t And we don’t beat them at least twice then we don’t deserve it

    boy Laxalt looks decent, big julien back sorting oot the defence with Griffiths back up front with eddy to kick us on, and by the way I’m not mr happy positive clapper and Lennon and the team selection and the formation has been * poor

    But * throwing the towel in already , Just cause we’re not leading the league after 11 games

    I remember Lennon being in a worse situation once. 3-0 down to Kilmarnock at HT, with the league table looking like a mess. Game ended 3-3. From then on, things improved a lot, performance-wise.

    There are so many variables that have changed since then. Context, expectations, gravity of the season. Not comparable.

    The ref was at it today but again not the reason why we didn't win. To give the penalty at the end (yes it was a penalty) after playing the advantage was a joke. He waited until Cosgrove's shot hit the bar then brought it back. To do that when the advantage was played was wrong.

    Think he's digging in. He knows what's coming from supporters.

    Lennon was in charge for the 2-1 where Forrest got the winner. I think we shaded that and were deserved winners, but I agree with your point

    I had to turn it off when I heard that.

    Literally their * job is to assist and tell the ref things.


    No crowds, nobody match fit, no strikers, Covid, injuries, now refs.


    Wake the * up Lennon, you're the issue here, and * off.

    I think me means Ajeti and Moi up front as a pair rather than each player.


    If we fail next week in the semi final surely the club have to tell him to * off. If you are in a competition with Aberdeen, Hibs and Hearts you have to win that.

    I dunno, I still feel barkas is being badly judged.
    He's settling in still, but literally I can't fault him fully for any goal conceded, not like we could with Gordon for quite a few of his.

    The lads getting compared to Forster as well, which just isn't fair at all on him.

    But after today, watching the calamity that is Lennon persisting with Duffy and his inability to organise a backline, I think barkas really needs to be given a bit more slack here.
    It's clear as * he's not helped by what's in front of him, and that's on Lennon for persisting with these * up selections

    I hope to * a shortlist is being drawn up to succeed Lennon. Next few weeks are gonna be tough in regards to fixtures. Need someone and his team ready to come in should the next few weeks go * up.

    Everyone saying we have 80 odd points to play for, no guarantee League season will finish in may, could be January or sooner.

    I've not been comfortable watching us play the Huns since Lenny took over....and that includes our 2-0 win away ... remember a few slating me for that on here too.

    For me this has been coming for a long time...
    Today I was sitting watching us going 3-2 ahead and barely cared that much tbh... we've been * over by Lawwell.

    You can't really blame Lenny for taking the job , but he was never the solution long term.

    He has too much baggage and it's showing right now.
