    If you read the messages you will find a lot of folk saying nothing is happening because he is in quarantine/isolation.
    Everyone has been doing the work from home. Why can’t this guy who is a manager do the same and he not even a player so he does most of his work behind a desk anyways. Preseason just started so there were many days prior with no training as players will still be on holiday. So why can’t he be doing meeting with players, scouts and staff over zoom? Seems to be doing * all as far as I am concerned.

    I don’t give two * if you don’t agree with me but to label me as dumb without giving a valid reason just show who really he dumb. You are probably one of those who still loves Lennon and Kennedy. Dimwit.

    From what the players are saying he is talking to them, so if he’s doing that it’s a possibility that he’s doing other stuff too, unless he’s catching up on Neighbours.

    I know I have a poor starting point for this appointment, but even I am knowing he is doing these things.
    Literally Griffiths has stated it.

    Hopefully he's no writing an Alan Partridge style "Bouncing Back" book after his stint with us.

    You didn't mention Zoom in your original message, maybe try to be more clear next time and people won't question you.

    Your point about me loving Kennedy and Lennon is pretty bizarre too, Kennedy should be nowhere near the club and has leeched off us for years, I've also made comments disparaging Lennon since last November, I have no love for the man.

    Not to mention it's only been a week since he was appointed, with Griffiths already stating he's talked to the boss, it's likely he's spoke to other players.

    Buzzing to see how he has us set up. Hoping for a very high press. Of course it would backfire at times but * it. After last season, I just want to get back to enjoying watching our games. A trophy or two would help as well.

    Absolutely.

    This appointment is left field, risky and totally unexpected, but if he implements the kind of game he's known for and the players buy into it we should be a good team to watch once again.

    The lack of urgency and organisation in every game last season was as infuriating as it was depressing to watch.

    Recruitment will be important, but tactically I'm hoping we're miles better under Ange than Lennon (which shouldn't be too difficult tbh).

    Ange is most certainly NOT a yes man. To the point that it’s highly likely if he found himself in that position he would walk. So I agree with your post. If you don’t want Ange seeing the * show that it is and resigning after a few months because he doesn’t have the support of the board, I’d be quite vociferous as a supporter body and agitate for change.

    I hope we don’t see, win the ball and pass it about our own half for 70% of the game. I think it’s better if we just go all out attack, if we lose the ball it brings the other teams out and makes it easier to play through.

    I read stuff about him and I want to get excited but then I think of the season just passed, how many players we need and I reign myself in

    I look forward to the Magners deal finishing so we can revive Castlemane XXXX “I can see the pub from here” adverts!

    What's this bullshit of Ange being a cheap option ? He is not coming from Raith Rovers for f sake! He is rated as being one of the top managers in the world ! Celtic have pulled a master stroke in getting him!

    What is your yard stick for cheap or expensive ? Do you have knowledge of what his contract is ? No ! You know he has come in to improve things moving forward. You know you can not get Guardiola . Mourinho's track record has not been that hot of late nor the dour way his teams play, so you would not want him for Celtic, nor the massive salary he commands. We all have seen the consequences. Van Gaal ? No thanks. Do you want dinosaurs or fresh bood ? Static football or progressive, lively winning football ?

    Yokohama Marinos are sponsored by a huge industrial company. They had regular crowds of 50,000 plus at their games .
    If you think Ange was being payed peanuts as manager there , then think again. Celtic will be paying him what he is worth, and they will get value fpr money ! Some of you guys need to get off the sauce and get a grip !

    By Australians yes but no-one has really heard of him in Europe, let alone rate him as one of the best in the world.

    I think he’s seen as cheap as he’s only ever spent a few mill on players in his whole career.
