    He is supposed to be a 'Celtic man', who knows how important this season is to supporters. If he puts his pride - or worse, his bank balance - before the good of the club, it is unforgivable.

    I'm pretty sure it would happen. We haven't played football this poor for a long time. Our incompetence over the last few years is finally catching up with us.

    This isn't the 90s anymore. We are in a financial position where we should be blowing teams away, developing young talent and making progress on the European stage. Instead we're playing awful football, we * money away in transfer fees and wages and we're bleeding young players to clubs with a more organised and better set up because they know they'll stand a better chance elsewhere.

    I don't think we've become spoiled at all. We're justifiably unhappy with the shambles that we have become.

    So you want another defeat to narrow our chances of the 10 even more? After the League Cup final last year he had twice the chance to show he learnt something. There's absolutely nothing that suggests that we will play any differently out of nothing next time. If we at least played better but still lost in one of the last two encounter with the huns I could say, ok let's give him a last chance. But no, it's the same bad perfomaces since 3 months with maybe 3 exceptions. Looking at it rational there's absolute zero agrunents why he now, after weeks of not managing to turn it around, should out of nothing be able to improve us.

    Huge difference between criticism and abuse.

    Some people think that abuse is a form of criticism and it’s ok, some people think that criticism is a form of abuse and it’s not ok.

    Both these types of people are morons.

    GB are entitled to their opinion as is any fan. It won't hasten his departure though, if anything I think it will strengthen the Board and Lennon's resolve.

    Why should we settle for the boundaries that Lawwell etc. set us? It's about time there was some fan representation on the board that can articulate the vision that most of us have for a club of our size.

    The talk of us emulating models that have been successful for the likes of Ajax and Salzburg isn't an unrealistic view. The club are backed every single season by the supporters which brings in a tone of revenue. We play in Europe every single season. That gives a manager like Howe or Silva the recipe that they need for success - money coming in for a healthy transfer budget and European football to help with attracting and developing players. We could be a force on the European stage as well as domestically.

    The ambition of the current board is non-existent. 10 in a row shouldn't be an obsession, it should be a formality. Look where the Huns were a couple of years ago? The fact they are now out performing us in Europe and in Scotland shows how negligent the board are.

    Don't see how anyone could have a problem with that banner and statement tbh, think it sums up the general mood of the support right now.

    But the shoogly peg might turn a corner and be able to hold a jacket or two with a wee bit of patience and superglue. Or they could just go for the cheaper option of blue tac

    I think someone needs to educate Phil as to the definition and history of “racism”.
