    If there's any truth in the Record or Mail stories that Desmond is giving Lennon a chance because of the fans protest then it shows you just how out of touch they are.

    Not taking decisions based on results or data but simply doing it to spite 200 fans who were fed up of the dug * football and excuses we're being served.

    At least the protest triggered a response in Desmond and Pedro that all other forms of critiquing: Social Media, phone-ins, banner at Parkhead, Forums - failed to do. So in that sense they've vindicated the fans decision to do it.

    We will not be silenced. We will not be ignored. The supporters will have our club back long after you have all pitched up and left.

    The whole lot needs * off now! Absolutely shocking that Lennon is still in a job and they are backing him!

    -Edit the 10 is now 100% gone now. May as well give them zombie * the trophy now.

    * sick

    All this is going to do is cause bigger protests and turn the aim on themselves.

    It says it all when they can’t even give their own quotes or make their own statement, a bunch of arrogant, out of touch cowards who seem determined to drive a wedge between the club and the fans.

    Wonder if desmond will be influenced by the fans if we refused to * continually fund the club. Bet he would then.

    If one thing that's came out of all this, it's that they dont really give a toss about our opinion. Or anything really.

    Maybe if the * reared his head more than 5 times in a decade hed be more in touch with what the * is going on.

    Scunnered. Positive zoom calls by christ!

    The Board Statement was a bit long winded, it should have been kept much shorter.

    The board’s statement on Sunday’s protest and what followed was a clever move to be honest. The fan base is split between those who agree with the protest albeit maybe not the issues with the police etc, and those who think it’s embarrassing, disgusting, etc. They’ve pitted us against each other which then deflects from their own gross negligence. Divide and conquer, oldest trick in the book.

    The line regarding missiles is total fabrication. Even if it was true, where was the same outcry when our players were attacked and assaulted in opposition grounds? Silence as per.

    Today, on the other hand, is a different story. I know the Record isn’t a bastion of truth and honesty but the narrative they ran with today regarding Desmond doubling down on his support for Lennon after Sunday is a massive own goal and only added fuel to the fire as well hardening the resolve of those who are willing to protest. It’s probably smoke and mirrors to gloss over the other reasons they haven’t gotten rid of Lennon yet but they’ve made a right * of it.

    The sooner we have a clear out at the club beginning with the self-serving, egotistical charlatans at the club, the better.

    I'm totally * off with everything now. They can only take supporters so far before they will have no supporters to plough their hard earned cash into the club left and therefore no business

    Seen a few folk saying the only way these * in charge will notice is if folk stop putting their money into the club. Just wondering if anyone else has already done this or will be?
    I'm not buying any Celtic stuff for Christmas presents like I normally would and I'm seriously considering not renewing for next season.

    I reckon it will start with the "smaller" things like Christmas presents etc. however, it this continues I can honestly see many supporters not renewing season tickets. I seen someone on FB saying that he was considering not renewing and he was given all sort of abuse from fellow fans saying he was spoiled etc.

    Facebook is the worst place to voice anything, it’s full of Celtic Da’s who have barely attended a game in their life.

    I have been a season-ticket holder for over a decade, and I am seriously considering whether I will renew my season ticket next season, not because I am spoiled, but because I expect supporters who essentially donated millions of pounds to the club this season to be treated with the respect that they deserve.

    The board know that Celtic is an addiction for most of us, and that we can go nowhere else to get our fix, and they are only too happy to exploit that.

    Yes, the ones
    Even they must see what's happening to our club. We slag off the huns for being like sheep and letting all sorts of shysters take over their club and not saying anything yet, here we are with a bunch of charlatans on the board not giving a * about the fans and still getting away with murder.

    I don't know any that have that opinion. If I did I would call them arseholes as there was no riot.

    Anyone who thinks Sunday was a riot has never been in a riot. Based on the footage I have seen anyway.

    Oh dear. Guess my definition and perception of a riot isn't the same as some others then. I saw some exuberant people, dissatisfied people, noisy people, a couple of rockets thrown in too, but a riot!...* sake gie ma head peace.
