    Wee man was absolutely delighted today! Good seeing the celebrations between him Ronnie and big John Kennedy.

    Today,even though we just beat a very poor new club, is day to be pleased and praised everything all that is good at Celtic . There is no doubt that Celtic wouldn't have strung together as good a run of results as they have , is it 14 wins out of 16 without everyone pulling together .

    I think its taken 6 months for John & Ronny to build a friendship and a working relationship since Ronny never handpicked Collins so there would have been trust issues ext but now were seeing a lot more from the team and they seem comfortable around each other

    Thought I would bump this thread as Mr 6 pac deserves some more recognition for what he has done for us especially on the fitness of the team. Same with Kennedy, no matter how much I love Ronny, it takes a lot more than 1 guy to turn us around the way we have in 6 months. Fitness and energy wise, this is the best I've seen.
    Do we sing any songs for our back room staff to know we appreciate them also. I remember we did for Parker, Johan etc.

    JC sets high standards and commands respect for the level he played at.

    I was worried when we appointed him as he has a history of being a divisive hard-*.

    Seems to be working out well though!

    They look like 2 guys who would rather set up their ironing boards to iron their best white polo shirts while watching Barca v Man City rather than having a beer.

    That own goal, though. :31: The '95/'96 team was when I started watching Celtic, and I really don't recall Marshall being that hamfisted.

    It's so weird that I always remember Marshall and Douglas being good, while Boruc was a dopey * who kept palming or punching the ball away. Maybe I'm just blotting out the bad memories? :56:

    If RD stays I reckon JC will be off by summer 2016 to have another shot at being a manager. He would have learned how to change a clubs culture by dealing with players and their egos under RD and he will fancy his chances of being successful.
