    Call me Terry then.

    I'm not blaming solely the refs - but they had a big hand in it. And at crucial moments. Mowbray at the end of the day is responsible but I reckon we'd have scraped past that shower of dung if not for the masons in the black.

    Definitely not the refs, to suggest that is just stupid.
    Tony Mowbray was mainly responsible, the players also.

    Of course it's mainly Mowbray and the players that cost us but theres no doubt the refs played their part I don't think i've ever seen so many one sided decisions in one season before.

    the players.they won for lennon yet played * for mowbray :97:

    and the refs were * but we didn't lose every game cos of them...only a few.plus the few games the huns got handed.

    so a combination of mowbrays tactics,players being * and some dodgy refs

    First - Unmotivated Celtic team. Luxury players just there to put money in the bank and wait for a transfer somwhere down south.

    Second - Absolute Rubbish defending. The back really really really needs fixed next season.

    Third - Mogga. I think he just tried to accomplish too much at once. Gutting the squad from the getgo was a horrible, horrible idea. Building a Celtic "dream team" is not something you can do in one transfer window.

    I would say: 40% Referees, 40% Mogga, 20% Players

    I can't jsut blame TM, the players must shoulder some of the blame too. But alot of it was down to the odd tactics and lack of motivational skills from the management.

    Tony Mowbray and his team of imposters. The only reason the ref situation seemed so bad last season was because we were losing games. Decisions have went against us in previous seasons and we still won the games so never moaned as much. The players and Mowbray take the blame - clearly his managing skills were useless if Lenny got them winning when he couldn't

    In saying that Mowbray was desperately unlucky with some injuries and a few decisions in big games. We definately dropped a few points because of refs but it happens every year therefore wasnt why we lost the title

    A combinition of player turnover levels that were too high, too quickly. Along with mid-season slump caused by this and also the fact we didn't beat rangers at parkhead in jan

    A combination of everything really. I mean the players can't keep a 4-2 lead against Aberdeen with not too long to go, or getting pumped 4-0 off St Mirren is simply unacceptable. Mowbray was just abysmal. Yet what do you expect Celtic to actually do when there's something like a 15 point swing against Celtic/towards Rangers? As * as Celtic have been, if it was not for blatant cheating from the referees, Celtic would still of been in with a shout on the last day of the season.

    Of course it was mowbray, he was a 3rd rate manager at best, and certainly not ready or up to the privilege and honour of managing celtic football club.
