Pat Dolan Article

Discussion in 'Celtic Chat' started by mcgrory67, Oct 6, 2008.

  1. Did anyone read Pat Dolan's Article in the Irish Star today?
    Don't have a link but he basically said that Celtic are going nowhere under Gordon Strachan and Roy Keane is the man to bring the club forward.
    I personally think he's talking a load of crap.
    However he did say that the club is being run more like a business and not an ambitious football club. He might have a point there.
    Thoughts?
     
  2. I would take Keane as a manager but wait a few years so he is known as a legend instead of jumping in too early in the deep end.
     
  3. he is always talking crap, another Eamonn Dunphy

    Roy Keane has proven nothing in management other than he can spend millions of pounds every single transfer window.

    If people slate Strachan's signing record have a look at Keane's in relation to the amount's both have to spend, we have obtained better quality for less money across the board.
     
  5. Going nowhere under strachan :rolleyes: what planets that guy on as for roy keane to early for him yet.
     

  6. how about taking sunderland from the bottom of the championship all the way to the top and getting promoted as champions and then keeping them up last season?
     
  7. I hate this fat *. He gets a job on setanta and all of a sudden he's an expert on Celtic. I've never heard him say anything positive about us. Always slaggin us off.
     
  8. if Strachan had a quarter of the money Keane has spent at Sunderland, we'd be killing teams in Europe and spanking the SPL hard!

    It dissapoints me to hear people like Dolan talking about a team they plaintively know little about. Eejit.
     


  9. dont think will come to celtic,i can see him being a future man united boss
     
  10. Keane has done nothing in management. I could understand arguments for Davie Moyes but i don't think anybody can really put a decent argument forward for Roy Keane at the moment.
     
  11. Dolan is closet Dublin Loyal!
     
  12. * *, I'll have some of what that reporter was smoking. He's just jumping on the bandwagon lol..
     
  13. Dolan is a joke. Have you ever listened to him on TV?
     

  14. Absolute pure garbage, i don't know how the presenter of the Premiership on Setanta Ireand puts up with him.
     
  15. Patrick Dempsey?

    He should have stuck to boxing!

    Anyone see the Apres Match taking the * out of them two?

    Their position when Keane took over was a false one created by Niall Quinn, they were nowhere near as * as he had them playing.

    He then spent circa 12 million quid on players;

    They were big fish in the wee pond that year.

    Don't get me wrong he may very well turn out to be a great manager but he's done nothing to prove himself fit for a job as big as Celtic imo.
     
  17. I keep missing Apres, is it on You Tube?
     
  18. A few of them probably
     
  19. More bollocks about wgs not being "A celtic man"
     
  20. Keano has all the traits of fergie, cool calm and collective after matches giving press conference's, knows what to say when and i imagine he go right off his nut in the dressing room. He will more and likely end up a Man Utd.
