    I see what you mean, it just becoming increasingly difficult to continue to support Mowbray as each game passes with his wild subsititions and tactics.

    Mowbray has not recieved one bit of flack at any of the games (witch he should be due) that is a testament to the celtic support now we are on an online forum ffs you can't tell people to start saying they back the manager when they don't :87:

    You also can't expect people to take your points seriously if you don't take the time to read the * article.

    I won't bother reading the article which probably highlights all the errors of our season to date , but will say it's what happens between now and the end of the season that matters.. Look forward not back..

    I've read plenty of Mowbray related articles in the last while. I've had my fill now as they usually say much the same thing. :87:

    It's the old addage when going to town on someone.. Check all possible stats and find the ones which make the situation seem even darker..

    Saw TM on the huddle recently talking about Fortune's good run of form and he said "People expect performances from him , Thats why the club shelled out close to 3 million pounds for him".. They started off the season saying he bought a striker that doesn't score goals , now that he's scoring goals it's the press's inflated price tag being called into question..

    In days gone by Celtic fans would unite and say we don't need any of us reading or spreading any of this kind of stuff , trying to unsettle an already paper thin * deflection shield that's protecting the manager and players.. Not to acknowledge these things is seen as burying the head in the sand though so I suppose it comes down to whichever way people want to deal with it..

    The fans of celtic fc have to take a huge part of the blame for the mess this great club finds itself this year.
    I do not want to get into the wgs/mon/tony debate....but.
    We had a manager and a team that played poor football but won things,but for many many fans this wasnt good enough....we must have good flowing football.....we must have a celtic man in charge......we must sign more celtic minded player.
    Well most of you got what you wanted and now we are right up * street.
    The fans treated wgs like *...so he left.
    The fans wanted kean....so the board got him at great cost to the club.
    I for one would like to have seen what our last manager could have done with the 10-15 million we have spent this summer.
    As we have seen for some reason our ex defender and now manager cant seem to set up a back line to keep the goals out,its not like we are just letting them past in european games.
    Anyone and everyone is popping them past us and its just pathetic.
    Rangers will win the league this year,not because they are any good but because we cant defend,we will shoot ourself in the foot a few more times this season thats for sure.
    But the manager needs more time to get the team playing how he wants.
    If we hound him out before next season then we are a very poor lot of fans.

    The only mouths to shut up will be your own big one when we get booted out the cup and further points dropped of that I am sure, 13 games to go unbeaten, will need to get my holy water out and rosary beads again:31:

    Here we go with the Celtic minded argument again. Don't believe all you hear on Real Radio, try using your brain.

    Well the pressure on Mowbray (or whoever replaces him) will only increase with the * that was published today about Scotland losing a Champions League Spot. Now it is a complete must to win the league, and even then you have to get through qualification. Could lead to a one team dominance if they get the CL spot year after year so Celtic better figure out what there doing fast.

    I Disagree a poor lotof fans would be fans who don't mind there team getting humped off the field in a season by a poor rangers team.

    This is celtic football club remember the sayin "celtic shirts don't shrink to fit inferior players" Do you think the great jock stein said that because he actually meant give the players two seasons to prove there worth NO he meant if they are not good enough they are out on there * and it's no different for a manager.

    What has mowbray shown you that makes you think that given time he has the ability to do better next season?, because all i've hear is evidence to say the opposite.

    TM has set the team up to play the way he plays football and it dosen't work here simple as that, we have heard from a WBA fan who says he won't change his ways no matter what the results are so if he plays the same way next season the end result will be the same we'll lose the league to rangers and they have done 3 in a row too.

    He won't change the way he plays and it dosen't work here, so he shouldn't be here next season, it's not rocket science :97:

    Im really gettin fed up with all this talk of mowbray now some fans just cant see the bigger picture. At the end of last season we all new big changes were needed. Mowbray has came in and laid the foundations so far albeit the defence is in really poor shape but lets look back In Jan 2009 we didnt even sign a striker that could have potentially won us the league, this year we brought in quite a few players and imo done some good business the only down side was that we never got the 1/2 central defenders we needed, I remember guys on here sayin bring back odea and look whats happend there the same guys are now sayin bring back mcmanus. Caldwell was rank. I love hearing the anti mowbray fanatics sayin yeah dead man walkin over the next 2 games when they now fin well that we are potentially going to have to play a 18 year old and a 19 year old as cb. Well I can tell those fans the now expect to concede goals because thats the situation at the back the now and if we dont then full credit to the youngsters. The bigger picture for me is we are creating far more chances than we ever did under strachan we potentially have a lethal strike force now our bench looks far stronger now for mid and strikers and if, no sorry once we get our NEW center backs in we will be a force to be reckoned with. The jigsaw is 3/4 finished if we go out for a new manager now it will be starting from scratch which could potentially set us back even further.
