    The Celtic way of playing football should refer to the hard work on the pitch, not possession football that neglects the defense. * playing out of the back if it means shipping 2 goals or more every game.

    Adults shouldn't get so worked up about every strip. There are 3 new strips every year, pick the * one you like or wait for a year on another 3.

    Having Broonie as captain and leader for so long hindered our development as a club, especially in Europe..

    Christie is one of our best players and contributors - correcting the formation issues of last season will enable him and the other midfield talent we have to prosper

    I wish we signed Guidetti on a permanent.

    Glenn Loovens was a decent player who had a bad spell of a couple of months.

    The disco lights were a cracking bit of business.

    Have you seen Guidetti's record since he left? He was a cracking player for a while but his attitude and fitness destroyed any chance he had of being even a decent player for any team at a decent level.

    Think how much Broony improved when Rodgers came in shows that to be false.

    Terrible decision making from the board when we were streets ahead is the only thing that hindered us IMO.

    You should go on some sort of register for saying ‘Hail Hail’ to another *.

    Either in person, or as part of any communication.

    The use of ‘bhoy’ or ‘ghirl’ should also result in being put on the register

    During Deilas years the amount of chances Griffiths had and missed put us under more pressure in games, but was glossed over when he eventually scored to get us the result.

    A second but not really opinion but just a thought, I only saw Paul McStay play in the mid 90s till he retired, and only seen clips of him before, so never understood the hype he has now, but I believe the hype was justified.

    I don’t have any ill will to Brendan Rodgers...

    In fact, I am very thankful for all he done at the club with it being a 24/7 party for the most part.

    We won't win the league this year with this squad :sicksmile:(

    Barkas will be our number 1 this year and a show everyone was wrong to write him off.

    After failing in the CL qualifiers and not even getting into the Europa, the transfer window closing without any players of any quality being signed and loosing the opening league games , Ange tells the board to * off and goes back to Japan leaving Kennedy and Strachan for the season !!!

    There are soooo many examples of players underwhelming in their first season, to then go on to become important players for us. E.g Brown, Caldwell, Loovens, K.Wilson, Samaras, Mjallby etc etc

    Football fans in general are incredibly fickle, so you can't expect most to remember that. But anyone who has had only 1 season at us should almost always be allowed a second. There are exceptions, of course. Loanees being one. And occasionally it is blindingly obvious a player won't make it. Though saying all that, it's hard to justify Barkas. I saw very few glimpses of talent from him last year.
