    Lennon already said he will “wield the axe” on players who have been crap. So if he names Broony in his lineup we know he has totally lost the plot.

    As long as Broony does not start then we have a chance

    Wouldn’t surprise me, even after his comments on Thursday, if he picks a very similar team.

    He is talking about a culture change etc. then he needs to freshen it right up and drop the players who are underperforming. It’s about time we got to see more of Turnbull, Soro, Griff, Ajeti, Klimala.

    If Lennon takes the team tomorrow and is true to his word then I expect to see something like this...

    Barkas
    Frimpong
    El Hamed/Welsh
    Bitton
    Laxalt
    Soro
    McGregor
    Christie/Turnbull
    Rogic
    Ajeti
    Griffiths

    4-3-1-2

    "Shane felt his hammy a bit in training this week"

    "Scott just needs a break"

    "Leigh has scored lately so he deserves a start"

    "David has impressed in training so we are throwing him in"


    Just in case you don't have the bottle to use the word "dropped" Lenny. Just fire these out. No doubt whatever he comes out with with be another polar opposite from the culture comments. Just make some changes please and give us some hope. Thanks.

    It's going to have to be something silly like 5,6,7 nil for people to be even slightly happy.

    My hope is we play utter * but sneak a 1-0 or 2-1 win.

    Doubt it would lead to change but it’s the best we can hope.

    can change to a 3-5-2 if not working. We lack real pace out wide for me.

    Although I want us to win on Sunday, I know that the board will see a win as another "corner turned" and keep the status quo whereas the majority of fans know that a win would just paper over the cracks till our next calamity.

    I will never want Celtic to loose a game especially in the league and especially this season.. I think we have to come to terms with the fact hes not going anywhere.

    So if hes talking about change he needs to start tomorrow..

    If he wants to play a pressing game I'd like to see a midfield without Broony.. Freshen it up..

    Defence: Anyone but Duffy...

    Midfield: Soro, Turnbal, Christie, Ely and Calmac..

    Attack: Eddy needs benched unfortunately and he needs to find a way for Griff to start...

    Again like last week against the sheep I'm fairly confident we will get the win.. simply because we have better players..

    We drop points again and the huns win... well it's a long way back already...

    As someone had mentioned, 1-0 or 2-1 win could still see Lenny get his jotters, or maybe I'm giving our board waaaay too much credit. If we go out and pump them 5-0 that won't happen.

    I do not want to lose this game. That is for sure though.

    Yeh, any Celtic fan who want's us to loose on Sunday just to get rid of our manager isn't a real fan.

    Don't see griffiths starting, still looks unfit which is why he's only been making 20 min appearances at the end, hope to see Turnbull start.

    I get that, I really do.

    Problem is, we need a confidence boost only achieved by a run of convincing wins.

    If we trounce them the absolute and real worry is they think we've turned a corner again when in reality most of us know with him at the helm there's a lot of deep rooted issues that aren't going anywhere.

    For me in a nutshell...even if we gub Motherwell they need to pull him aside and part amicably, mutual consent blah blah. That's what should happen as it's gone way too far now. Will it...probably not.

    Probably win it by the odd goal as I can't see us keeping a clean sheet. 4-3 or 3-2 us wouldn't surprise me. We're calamitous at the back

    Really looking forward to this surprisingly, gonna be an interesting one :fear: will be so unsurprised if he uses Elyounoussi as a scapegoat after the phone incident and drops him out the side, even though him, Rogic and Laxalt have been our only performers recently (excluding Thursday)

    There's more chance of our defence keeping a clean sheet tomorrow than me as a teenager
