As deficient as the squad is, I’m convinced another coaching team would get more out of us. Holding on at the end against the worst team in the league is not a good look.

Slightly better 2nd half but we simply don’t create enough clear cut chances. Overall, not good enough. Defensively we are a disgrace. We know we’re conceding in every game. Midfield is still imbalanced. What a missed opportunity tonight.

I cut the team slack on Sunday as the conditions were poor. But not tonight. We have been awful and there’s no excuses. Get Jota and Hassan on and get Duran in the middle. I’d get the Ox on too. Otherwise, we can kiss the 3 points goodbye.

A great 3 points after going behind so early. I’m not going to castigate the players today - conditions were awful and it clearly affected things. Getting the win was the priority especially after a mudeeek Euro defeat. The ref a disgrace btw.

Watched the game with my teenage son at an Irish bar in Rome. Got chatting to a trainee priest from Scots College. Plenty of Celtic fans in the bar. Celtic romp home 7-1. All in all, a thoroughly pleasant afternoon supping Guinness.🍻

Currently in Rome with the family. Wife shocked I didn’t head along to watch tonight’s match at the nearby Finnegans Irish Bar. But that’s where I’m at. A once proud club that competed at the highest level now a laughing stock & has reduced me to indifference with these ties.

France 1 down against Belgium with 13 mins left and romped home 4-1. Football from another planet. Olise and Doue and absolute joy to watch. Reminds you why you fell in love with the game.

Anybody get a ticket for the ACSOM Brendan Rodgers event? I got through this morning, selected 2 seats in the 6th row, tried to checkout and got an error message. Got kicked out, tried to log back in, by which time I was 4,000th in the queue and onto plums!🙃😞

I’ve mentioned before that I seem to be getting more animated & emotional about Celtic the older I get. I thought maturity would bring the opposite. So I had a chuckle there when reading Jim Kerr & Charlie Burchill of Simple Minds’ great book “our secrets are the same”…glad to know it’s not just me!

Now 2 days into this 3 week break for Celtic and not a peep about the manager and coaches. A club that just drifts along, a hostage to fortune. If we really wanted to control our own destiny we would’ve removed all of the coaching staff and have new appointments in this week.

We should change the coaching staff now and, while problems will remain in the boardroom, it might give us a chance to give the team a bit of structure, style and purpose. The current setup is not working.

We can all rightfully pick holes in this squad (and some of the players are nowhere near Celtic class) but we should be doing way better than we are. Quite simply, we look a badly coached side.

This Sunday was always going to be massive. Lose and MON should resign. I’d hate to see a legend removed from office, but if he refuses to go voluntarily we need to pull the plug on him and this coaching team.

Had to follow the game via notifications as was watching my boy play at same time. Sounds pitiful. Thankfully now heading straight to Radio 2 in the Park to try and forget about it.

Not long in from game. Duran continues to impress. Thought Yang gave his all tonight. Comfortable workout. Stinker of a night weatherwise but never ceases to amaze me the number of grown men that go to the match in shorts. At night. In the pissing rain!🤯😆
