    First professional player to score with the Predator boots.
    Brilliant player for us during hard times.....and he scored the goal that silenced a hun filled(almost) Ibrox.

    Is that the * McNee commentating on JC's goal? Whoever it is nearly chocked with us scoring against his team.

    Love JC. Loved him as a player and I'm glad to say I thought at the time he was appointed assistant that this might work out.

    Always good for a foreign manager to have a man with experience of the Scottish game beside him, and bonus for Ronny, JC also had continental experience and shared his vision of proper diet and fitness.

    Long live the bromance!

    Strachan should bring him in to the Scotland set up to replace the wee fat ginger lesbian.

    Celtic is more than enough for him to concentrate on.

    As much as I'd like Collins to get involved, I don't think there's been anything said about McCall leaving Scotland, has there? His job there is effectively part-time anyway.

    Scott Brown said Stuart McCall was behind the corner routine that got us the win against Ireland. Seems to bring something to the table just like Strachan and the rest of his staff.

    Look at Stokesy's gut when he walks down the stairs at 1:10. No wonder he's been told to lose more weight after losing more than half a stone

    Opinions as a coach ? For me he shouldn't be in the job he is in it should have been Ronnys own choice and I view him the same as Ronny just happy to be here wont get a bigger job. For some reason I find him very hard to like and he always puts me in mind of this ...

    He should be a personal trainer at Bannatynes Gym not Assistant Manager at Celtic

    He probably is a pain in the * to work under. One of those people who would scrutinise everything and constantly be going on about bettering yourself and training harder and working harder on and off the park etc etc

    I bet players like Stokes, Commons and Mulgrew don't like him as they to me are lazy types who dont really have any interest in bettering themselves.

    An incompetent usually scumbag who is even more to blame for the situation than Deila himself. There is no excuse for keeping him in the club.

    Mulgrew's been consistently praised as the best trainer at the club.

    He should never have been our assistant manager in the first place. He wasn't Ronny's guy, he was the board's guy. I will never support the idea of the board hand picking our manager's right hand man for him, it's wrong. If you respect a man enough to hand him the position of Celtic manager then you should respect him enough to let him choose his own number two.
