    You say that but when we played Real Madrid at Celtic Park is one of my favourite games, even though we eventually got spanked.

    Would take that in a heartbeat after tonight. Exciting, attacking football is what Celtic is for me. Not what we are now.

    Absolutely shocking start. He will be sacked shortly.

    The only way I want him back is if we cant shift this board and sporting structure because I have zero trust in them hiring a new manager. They've went back to both Lennon and Rodgers because they are the most risk averse clowns in the world.

    Wouldn't want Ange back, he got lucky with us, and so, so one dimensional.
    He is being exposed now for what he is worth.

    Not a very good manager.

    Kinda surprised he even took that job when he couldn't even get any of his own players in.

    I guess he also got lucky with Yokohama, Australia and Brisbane. Really lucky guy it seems, winning trophies pretty much in every job.

    He was found out at the Premier League level & Forest deserve everything they get after firing Nuno & hiring him.

    Ange was just not a fit for Forest. They became a great premier league side by being compact, counter attacking and incredibly tough to break down. Ange is just not the man to carry that kind of style forward.

    He was taking us to levels I hadn't seen at Celtic in a long time.

    We were taking the games to teams in Europe away from home. Granted we regularly fell short, but we were always generally in these games for long periods of time and it was just a more enjoyable style to watch. Felt like we were genuinely going somewhere under him.

    Not to mention we absolutely strolled to the treble in his second season. Would've been great to see him stay and develop us further.

    I do worry how motivated he is these days though.

    Id like him back because i like his style of football, it was always gonna be a tough ask to do that with spurs though.
    Almost impossible job to do it with that Forrest team

    Had he got given the man city job it probably would have been different for him

    I think if his fight heart is still in it he could return here and be successful again.

    But there must be other managers out there that could come in and with Few decent signings get us playing similar football to ange's.

    Hopefully our board wouldn't again sabotage us when we reach the heights again due their fear of success.
