    I like Ronny but the fact he was moved on after two seasons, on the back of being beaten by a second tier huns team, is a pretty clear indication that the project ultimately failed.

    He won two leagues titles that would have been unthinkable not to win.

    Steve McLaren has nothing to do with anything. What's your point?

    Yes of course the aim is to win the league but it's automatically made a lot easier by the huns not being there. You never answered the questions I asked though ?

    It’s a part of the aim aye, think a bit more is expected of a Celtic manager though fs- especially at that time

    You seem to be defending the board here and also defending the idea of appointing Ange.
    What has happened at our club for the past year has been a constant * embarrassment and this current mess is no exception.

    Well if the standard is managing at world cups then he checks out. He also won the Eredivisie and the league cup in England as well as taking Boro to a European final. Think you could make a case for those achievements at the very least being on a par with the A and J league and he also matches him with the world cup

    Yes. Winning the league is your only aim at the start of a season?

    Isn't the aim to win all the domestic competitions you enter?

    Again you never answered the questions

    Why did he leave and why was his next club back in Norway ?

    You are holding managing at a world cup on a pedestal and yes it's an achievement in a sense but I am pointing out that guys like Steve Mclaren have a better CV but nobody would be bending over backwards to get him in

    Still avoiding the fact Ronny won two leagues and wasn't a failure?

    Of course the bar is higher than that in seasons that we started 1/50 for the League with the bookies.

    He failed twice to qualify for the Champions League (3 times if you include the reprieve offered by Legia fielding an ineligible player) we went through a whole Europa League group without a single win from 6 games.

    Deila was not a success. As was shown by him standing aside after the 2nd season despite winning the League both years.
