    I won a few games of fifa back in the day.

    I reckon I'm an absolute winner and deserve to be recognised and given the job.

    Anyone says different and you're being disrespectful and I'm going to cancel you.

    Two of his main attributes seem to be...he's had success operating within small budgets and he's known for player development. He also won't cost much in wages and compensation. That tells me a lot about what we are looking at next season when it comes to budgets and our general outlook.

    This appointment is madness and the fact that strachan and kennedy remain is equally as bewildering. what the * is going on at our club.

    If you would have said after Lennon left that this guy would have been our new manager then people would have been flabbergasted. How far we have fallen.

    I admire your partial optimism, but let's face it, the players we have conceded long before last season ended, don't see how their attitude and application would change over a summer with no recognised management in place. We will likely go into the start of the domestic season with no manager, and a board chasing some guy who will likely never be our manager. Plus we have no head of recruitment in place, a new ceo that looks to be even worse than the last and a majority shareholder that doesn't give a flying *. We've lost our captain of 10 years, with the only viable successor(ajer) likely to leave. Most of the squad are decidedly average at best and any sellable assets that bids come in for will be sold with no one in place to properly oversee the rebuild.

    Its * sad but the club is rotten from top to bottom. Clubs in this state do not achieve success. It's hardly pathetic being able to face harsh realities.

    I do agree with a lot of that mate, but no way would I concede to they *. The place stunk to high heaven last season and we will probably never know the full story. See what the team looks like come the first game but don’t give up yet. I know it’s not the same but I’d never heard of Lubo and he was ridiculed by the press, I’d never heard of Naka, both were a revelation. I’ve never heard of Ange but have to give him a chance if it’s going to be him. Every Celtic fan is hurting big time and I’d be delighted if our club was taken over. I’ve no faith in Desmond, Lawwell and the rest but can’t not get behind the team and have some hope.

    I think this could be true if Desmond decides he's had enough this will 100% happen to us as he is saying be careful what you wish for things could be about to get a whole lot worse

    Ive never been so uninspired about an upcoming season. We'll maybe make Europa League. Get 3-4 loans in from England. A very average manager that's been at the same level for 25 years. Grim as it gets.

    Obviously the Aussies will go to bat for him it's the equivalent of the manager of the Pollockshaws Pirates taking over the Dallas Cowboys if you like the sport you will stand by the guy

    We'll be lucky to finish 2nd looking at what's gonny be left once the likes of eduard and ajer are sold, we have no right back and Greg Taylor at left back. Julien is the only centre half and he's made of glass, and our captain has gone. were a * shambles and it all lies at the door of the Tory * who've somehow managed to find their way into our club leaving the support powerless to anything they do.

    I'll get behind the team but more out of duty than hope.

    The thing is, you're right about postecoglou, 100%, and if he was to be the next manager and start tomorrow that would be fine with me and would give me some hope. I just dont actually see him being the manager, this uefa thing is just not going to go away, I think we will pursue this for a few weeks then be forced to move onto plan c or d and waste the majority of the transfer window.

    I’ve not got a clue tbh, but many seem to be saying the uefa licence isn’t an issue.

    If he's willing to have John Kennedy foisted upon him then he's no "World-class manager"

    Just another under-qualified guy that is astounded at being given the opportunity and is terrified at making demands and messing it up.

    If an Ange, Kennedy & Strachan partnership was part of our long-term thinking, why wasn't he asked the question in February?

    That's my fear, this will fall through and we'll turn to the likes of Keane or, * forbid, Kennedy.

    Hopefully the badge situation is sorted quickly i.e by the weekend and we either appoint him, or move on to somebody else.
