    It’s went a lot worse under him than I expected, and I had really low expectations. Board probably thought if he managed a win v them and won the majority of other league games they could appoint him! Now they defo can’t.

    I keep hoping to see that he has been sacked as he should not get the opportunity to resign .

    For me, at best, this spell in charge was a chance for him to audition for a back room place with a new manager.

    He’s been absolutely woeful.

    Everything from tactics, motivation and especially team selection has been extremely poor.

    I wouldn’t have him anywhere near the club in any capacity. If he’s permanently let go once the season is over I’ll celebrate it as us moving forward as a club.

    I think we have to let him go now if we have any hope of moving on properly, as he will always be associated with this shitshow of a season, and more specifically with this game.

    He never had a chance of the managers job in the first place but he did have an opportunity to prove he was worth keeping around the place.

    Well he’s well and truly * it. An absolute moron. Get him to * with the rest.

    He needs away from Celtic to actually realise what it’s like in the game, he’s basically been mollycoddled at us for years.

    For the first time ever I never watched that match. I knew the result before a ball was kicked.

    I honestly don't blame the guy. How can he take the blame for all this pish? He cannot be our permanent manager as he's not got the experience or pedigree but to say he has caused all this is delusional.

    Lawwell and his pals in the board are to blame for all of this. Anyone with a bit of ambition would have taken on the caretaker manager role and gave it their best as it's an amazing opportunity.

    He has given it a try and it's obvious we need someone from the outside with plenty of experience that can have a big impact. I blame a lot of the players more as there is an obvious lack or desire in our dressing room.

    He could always have said no. He's a * useless clown and should never have been in the position right enough to even have a choice.

    Total * useless imposter. A wage thief. A loser. Would rather hang round like a rancid smell and take Liewells easy shillings to spy on the dressing room as he knows he's incompetent and couldn't cut it anywhere else. Has made a damned good living by playing the pity card for 20 years.

    Played 44 games at senior level, never coached anywhere else and finds himself managing our first team. His pal Strachan has coached at giants like Doncaster and Peterborough. What do we expect?
    Can’t stand Gerrard and McAllister but just compare the CV’s.
    We are a * embarrassment and it’s all Lawwell and the boards fault.

    I don't mind Kennedy failing, I mind that he didn't attempt to change anything. Even after guaranteeing 2nd he made no attempt to try anything new or try players like Griff, Ajeti, Soro, Ralston, Dembele, Johnston, Barkas or Hazard.

    Absolute chronic that he is our manager, even on an interim basis.

    Interim managers should not be in a position for prolonged spells - 3 months is longer than some fully paid and experienced managers get at clubs before they are sacked for better results than this guy is managing.

    No room at the club any more for this guy, don't care for the niceties of some generic lipservice to the guy, he's a dud at present and we are in no * place to allow him to keep cutting his cloth here.
    Move on for his own and our sake.

    But the worst bit is, he will still be here next season. And if this board could have gotten away with it, he would have been the manager as well.
    Make no mistake, if he had beaten the huns in the cup and then won it, he would have been given the job full time.
