Four bhoys out their depth

Look at the date of the first post mate, then read above post, i was won over big style, seems so long ago, but yes im sorry i doubted Lenny

 

lets put this into perspective lads ..

Lennon and his coaching staff almost won the treble this season. To get to the final of both cups , win one, and finish 1 point behind rangers in the league, is a remarkable achievement for a ''rookie' manager.

Yes it was disappointing we lost the league but if you weigh things up .. the team did very little wrong last season but fall short during the run in . Theres alot of promising things to take from last season .. the group has now gel'd , and can only learn from experience, about consistency . Next season .. will be a big year for us.

 

Not quite that simple mate

 

We had one of the best defences in Britain this season and didn't win the league. Forster kept a total of 22 clean sheets this year, surpassing the 21 set by Rab Douglas in season 2000/01, I think.

 

ano mate didn't realise , dont be doubtin him again !

 

can i splash this pie on your face first m8 ?

ye can eat the rest or whatever after .

lol

 

Stats are very misleading. This was one of the worst defences I've ever seen in all my years of supporting the Hoops.

The reason we kept so many clean sheets was because our midfield when containing Kayal and Ledley are fantastic at pressuring teams and winning the ball back as soon as it's lost. When we're under the cosh from teams nobody can sit here and tell me they're comfortable when some nobody from Inverness or St. Mirren is running at Majstorovic. Easily the worst centre half I've seen in the Celtic jersey yet seems to have build up a fantastic rapport with the Celtic faithful and the media which makes him an automatic starter next season.

 

your full of pish mate

 

Lol... its about 6 months since he posted the initial thread .

But i still think he needs a few humble pies charged at him .

In lennon we trust !!

 

get a grip, i believed in what i said then, and was won over by his management skills and determination and as december was closing changed my mind and started to believe in him and he has done well, we are still not a great team but i can see we will get there, as for you............back up mate because its yours trolly thats full of pish !!!!!!

 

i see the old i'm a better bhoy than you because i believed from the start, yeah yeah.......... i'm big enough to put my hands up and admit i was wrong........i can be concerned for my team anytime i please

 

I agree with the basic point you're making in that stats gloss over a lot about our defence but surely you've seen worse CB's than Dan ?

 

lennon is the man i believe everyone starts off as a rookie and i believe he has done well in his first season espescially considering what he had to work with and who he brought in and coming second to walter smith who has a wealth of managerial experience by 1point.

 

i never said you were better bhoy m8 .. infact it was just a bit of banter .

but i have this thing of .. having faith in a manager and his coaching staff till the end of the season , instead of calling people idiots like yourself

 

no problemo if it just banter mate, sorry still arsed wi the idiot who said i was full of pish, it wasnt lenny i referred to as idiot it was gary parker, haha you edited it lol:icon_mrgreen:

 

So you had faith in Mowbray even after St. Mirren then ?

 

in any normal season i would have backed lenny all the way, but after having to suffer the total * under mowbray i was wary of a rookie at the start, but as i said he has gave us his all and a good team and loads of future hope, so i'm happy

 

mowbray was sacked well after christmas , the bad results were building up at that point . I backed him until that point , yes . Hoping he would turn things around . But i wouldnt call him and idiot or whatever . It didnt work out for him and we needed a change .

But i didnt see the need to start slagging lenny , in november because of a few bad results . There was still alot of football to be played .

But .. fair play to the OP for putting his hands up. Takes a big man to do that.

 

Scotty, don't bite mate, rightly or wrongly, you are entitled to your opinion.
