    That's not great or outstanding.

    If our bottle didn't crash it might have been but it's nowhere near the standard required.

    Firstly neither those two managers have the same advantage as we do over our competition in terms of finance, even though they have both spent crazy money. The gap between what they spend compared to what we spend versus our title challengers in not comparable. Isint our wage bill higher than the 11 other clubs put together?

    * drop our defensive line back
    * play a true holding player
    * Commons in the hole
    * Stokes or Ciftci in the team feeding griff
    * sensible use of full backs
    * never concede, goals will come because of our superiority
    * change system depending on opposition
    * Armstrong is not a winger
    * drop your pet if he under performs
    * your pet should not hit corners
    * fix defensive organization urgently
    * no more talking just win

    The tyres have been slashed, the rims are gone, windaes are panned in, it's on its side and someone's spray painted 'Requiem' on the roof and a * on the bonnet.
    The bus has crashed. It is now the Talk Celtic Bus of Grim Silence and Solitude.

    How any Celtic fan could be satisfied with the way things have gone amazes me, I'm all for a bit of optimism but where does this blind faith end? For the record I think the real blame for how far we've fallen as a club lies at the very top with Desmond and Lawwell but I also just cant see what cause of optimism Delia has shown as manager. I'm sure he's a nice guy and I admire some of his ideas but can anyone really say we have improved at all in over a year hes had in charge, I would say if anything we have gotten worse. That said he has been given absolutely no support from the hierarchy and arguably it was again their fault for appointing him in the first place, to again cut costs.

    Well one of the most successful managers in British Football history is Alex Ferguson and he was almost sacked in his 3rd season for under performing.
    We all know how well that went for him eventually given time.



    I know its a cliche but Rome wasn't built in a day.

    Mostly all of Ronnys signings have been woeful, the team can't defend set-peices and struggle to finish teams of in the league not to mention the boring football on display since he arrived, there's also a lack of confidence and believe in this side and we will probably have to wait years for these young guys to develop so no I'm not happy with the downgrade at our club I can't remember us being this short of quality.

    And one of the most rotten managers in all of British football history was sacked in 8 months from Celtic in John Barnes, what's your point? That Ronny is a Sir Alex Ferguson level manager?

    Options are polar opposites :smiley-laughing002:

    Voted no, but I don't think Ronny is clueless etc.

    After the window closed 2 weeks ago he claimed we strengthened the back four in every position. He also didnt rate Lennon.

    Ronny deila isn't fergie, applaud and judge him on his own merits.

    We're going backwards, simple as.

    And right there in your poll is one of Celtics biggest problems... fans who only see in black and white!

    Neither option is even remotely sensible!

    That was the worst inter team a have seen in my lifetime to be honest, strachans and lennys teams would have pumped that side without a shadow of a doubt, infact strachans team beat there neighbours ac milan in 2007 when they were the european champions at the time, this side couldnt get past malmo and look major disjointed and unsettled deila has had over a year now imo were no better were worse, and unless he changes the formation and bins that zonal marking he will be picking up his p45 before the end of the year.

    I can't accept that at all.

    By CL proper standards, we are financially speaking a poor side. By CL qualification or Europa League standards, we are a relatively rich side.

    It's absolutely imperative that we don't let our standards in Europe drop to the level where anything is a bonus. I don't see the league being a must, I see it being an absolute given. I don't see European results as a bonus, but something we should aspire to and in many ways expect.
