    Absolutely spot on, this and his scorn for the fans has always been my biggest criticisms of him

    Of course he’ll have influence at the club, he worked there for nearly two decades, but he is no longer involved in the day-to-day running of it. This pulling the strings fantasy is just that.

    “Having influence” and “pulling the strings” are very different things.

    Definitely. Why would he even want to do the same job he was without the pay? * that was one of the biggest complaints against him, if he was doing it as a freebie now should make you like him more :56:

    Depends on how much of an “influence” it is.

    Pulling the strings is different to doing the same job he was doing.

    He always was pulling the strings.

    EDIT: infact this is daft, it is and always has been Dermot Desmond pulling the strings.

    I’m not sure how much Desmond has actually had to do with the day to day running of the club over the past few years to be honest. It doesn’t appear like he has given much of a * about us if truth be told.

    Anyone that thinks we'll win the league under Ange is living in a dream world.

    Keep the heid mate - we've had one transfer window. Results will improve as the squad does.

    I get what you're saying, we need more windows so we can beat the likes of Dundee Utd and Inverness, our squad isn't good enough to beat those giants yet.....

    It's all clear now, not the managers fault, we are just a poor side that needs investing in and then after 4 or 5 windows the likes of Dundee Utd will fall at our feet.

    Good times ahead then....

    Investment is down to the board and just wish we could get rid of this board like Newcastle got rid of the person holding them back and before anyone says it I wouldn't want Saudi backers just a guy with money who's willing to spend a bit to get Celtic to a decent European level and at the moment the club is going backwards under Desmond and this board .
    Ang needs to be backed in January with decent quality players or I can't see even Ang sticking around for next season .

    Desmond is a billionaire who has Celtic as a status symbol but is not willing to put money into the club and redeem himself with the fans and create a mighty club and also become a legend as an owner for ever more.

    He treats this club as his plaything but has no emotional investment in it. I wonder how he has treated people he has come in contact with over the years, both women and men.

    Bullshit, every real Celtic fan is concerned about Ange, change it while it's still only six points.
