    Tell that to Gordon Strachan. It’s his mantra, I’m just on board with it.

    Some of his other most recent European results are absolutely unacceptable. After being embarrassed this season in the champions league qualifying rounds.

    Aye, in terms of TV money, media in UK harp on about hiw obscene it is that UK networks spend on EPL, but i remember reading an article from years ago now that showed there countries out there that pay, not just a little more, but bucke loads more than UK networks do for TV rights so I can only imagine that in theory that's gone up even further since then.

    In terms of Brexit, I'd agree it won't impact football at all, at least not your big clubs because money talks and they would be mad to refuse any applicable residency status to a player who going to be kn yhe books of an EPL club earning minimum £40k a week

    Tackling that from the wrong angle.

    Strachan says forget about shape and tactics (on a weekly basis), good players win games of football.

    I agree with him.

    That’s probably a big factor in Strachan not having a club job since Boro sacked him in 2010.

    Strachan is still the best Celtic Manager in my time supporting the Hoops. O'Neill was great too and Lennon learned from them both. We will win the 10. Have faith.

    Why does anyone give a * what Strachan thinks or says? Talked pish then and talks even bigger amounts of pish now.

    You can’t just throw good players in with a mediocre manager and expect to win. That’s mental.

    Course you can. All you need to do is tell them to win and they go out and do it.

    I have said for years that we lack a defensive coach , my worry is that kennedy has input in this as he was a great prospect and looked the part in the short period he played , but he could have flopped , odea or mcmanus i dont think are the answer

    Now your talking.... Big Mick wouldn't take any nonsense from some of the Divas when seem to have. Definitely take him untill the end of the season. Sort the defence out 100%. Might not be pretty but hed get the job done.

    Satisfy the "we need a Celtic man" too.

    Being him Home

    Gordon Strachan has had 2 jobs since he left us 11 years ago. Middlesbrough, where he was a collossal failure and Scotland, where he also ultimately failed despite a decent run towards the end of his tenure.

    Scraping the bottom of the barrel if he's being used as evidence against the importance of tactics.

    I don’t think he’ll be going for another management job, he’s put in some shift. He deserves a good retirement, whether that’s in his nature I don’t know lol

    We deserve everything we get when we’ve * wanting names like that as the next manager.

    No doubt the same people creaming themselves about Duffy coming in.
