    50% win ratio in the league Simply not good enough at present.

    The concern for me is when we're playing what's billed as 'attacking football' but we can't break down that Livi side. It's the same parked bus we've seen week-in week-out for years and rarely ever struggle to score against. And again, it seems as though there's a refusal or inability to adjust tactically. When you're crossing it into the box to no avail for nigh on an hour, maybe it's time to try taking on your man and cutting in.

    Hes fortunate they've dropped points today as well as rhe two Edinburgh sides.

    * typical the week all 3 do and we lose away against Livi.

    You couldn't make it up.

    As bad as it is, there is no way this squad should be playing this badly or losing to Livingston, the team just isn't showing up for some games.

    The Lennon-era is very much still lingering in the dugout, which is hardly surprising given the bulk of it is still there.

    No subs until 70th minute, away form abysmal, no instructions from the touch line etc. Same old same old.

    Someone at the club, who cares about Celtic, should’ve told Ange not to accept Lennon’s (Lawwell’s) backroom set up.

    I think any other manager would have been. This Ange love story has come crashing down today.

    He needs to address the major problems within our team starting by his own tactics and formation.

    Mckay leaving could be his saving grace, too busy looking for a new ceo to bother with a manager.
    Most of us didn't expect to win the league this year but this is not good enough for me. People can say our defenders are squad is * but it's better than all but 1 club in the league and we should be taking advantage of the fact Rangers are pish this season.

    Yep, think I was focussing my anger on the forwards who contributed the square root of * all today!! But yes I like the look of both Juranovic and CCV...

    The boardroom mess is saving the manager right now.

    But he's an embarrassment himself.

    To be replaced with who? Who takes the job? It's a poisoned chalice. It took us 6 months to bring him in. If he goes we're stuck with Kennedy again.

    There was so much emphasis when Ange came in on how his previous teams have needed time to learn to play the way that has given him success. Are we going to sack him in September, given the shambles of a squad that he inherited?

    9 points from 6 games is poor. I'm not making excuses, but I really don't see what sacking him is going to accomplish. It puts us right back to square one. I've seen enough in the last couple of months to understand what he's trying to accomplish. This isn't comparable to Lennon (yet anyway). He undoubtedly needs to be more flexible with his setup, especially on surfaces like that today. But he needs more time before the fans get on his back.

    He's done unless there is a dramatic improvement now.
