    Yeah, if you are angry at the way Celtic play just now, then tak you're money accross town and buy a ticket at Hampden and support the national team instead, incase you don't already!

    He is ahead of some very big names, according to the bookies for the newcastle job.

    Going by that list ellboy, he is ahead of big names like

    Martin Jol
    Louis Van Gaal
    Guus Hiddink
    Claudio Ranieri
    Harry Redknapp
    Ottmar Hitzfeld
    * Advocaat
    Slaven Bilic
    Sven Eriksson

    Loads more.

    Going by that Strachan is in the top 15 for the job. You go on about bookmakers, so surely he must be rated down south.

    Especially, cause you could take Keegan out, Shearer who is only there cause he is newcastle through and through. Wise is a low price cause he is there, could go on.

    Check William Hill 10th favourite at 16-1

    Those odds you gave from Paddy Power, where did you get them?? cause they are well off the mark.

    16/1 with hills that's interesting, honestly can't remeber him being as short as that in any list, Man City a side 2 seasons ago.

    The reason why I go on about odds is to the fact many on here have a very high opinion of our manager. However that opinion does not reflect the general opinon around the country, or he would be amongst the front runners for most jobs. It is just a fact that he has not been a front runner in any market, for the praise he recieves from many of our supporters I find that fact to be contradictory.

    However he is amongst illustreous names for the Newcastle job, although again not amongst the favourites. To be honest mate I am glad he's not but I think the fact he is not a front runner somewhat proves my point.

    Kind of disagree with you there mate. you look at the odds for the newcastle job and wgs is ahead of some big names.

    If it was the Fulham or West Ham job, Gordon Strachan would be about 50-1 in my opinion, thats because the bookies know he would be more intrested in being the newcastle manager than West ham or Fulham. And would find it hard to leave a club like celtic for those clubs.

    Just look at Mark Magee he is higher than wgs for the newcastle job, that does not mean Maghee has more respect down south, it means Maghee would be more intrested in that job in my opinion.

    Sven is about 40-1, thats because he has just signed a mega bucks contract with Mexico, he would not be that if it was the Liverpool job say.

    If everyone who wasn't happy with the way we're playing did that Hampden would be a sell out.

    Wgs is now sixth favourite with Ladbrokes for the Newcastle Job at 12-1

    Only David Moyes, Alan Shearer, Kevin Keegan, Didier Deschamps and Gustavo Poyet are ahead of him. Thats Intresting.

    Who says he has no respect down south.
