    Not sure how you can listen to his drivel and not be slightly concerned.

    We’ve been incredibly lucky with Ange.

    The only big gripe with last season was Lennon being appointed. Then, the time it took to realise it was going * up. They spent (£4-5m) on a keeper that turned out to be useless, spent big on wages for Duffy, I would imagine, who also turned out to be useless. £3m on Ajeti as well. On paper they all looked good signings.

    They went for the easy, cheap, supposedly safe option in NL and it backfired spectacularly.

    Found that amusing

    "We do not want the club to get into a financial state where the club goes into liquidation and there is going to be a new Celtic. We want our history to be continuous, not to be curtailed through financial mismanagement."

    Not sure how that’s your immediate takeaway from that specific part of the statement tbh, and that’s coming from a general cynic.

    But aye, just currently enjoying the fact we’ve got Ange and hoping he’s here for a while.

    So Howe turned us down at the last minute for "personal reasons".

    We most certainly have

    And Desmond deserves credit for giving him his full backing in the transfer market

    He got lucky, incredibly lucky, with Ange. Only reason we appointed him was because of the city links originally.

    Turns out he's a fantastic football manager, but I struggle to give Dermot and the board much, if any, credit for recruiting him.

    That was my first and only thought. He has habit of saying what we the fans want to hear.
