    Because he loves walking into clubs like that and rebuilding them. He did it with us . He relishes getting written off.

    That’s the ‘big one’ that can really rankle… (not one for Jonathan Ross to say ) …

    ‘ ok.. so you were up for going but will stay because they didn’t take you.’ Hmmmn. :43:

    Canny believe there’s people genuinely believing a guy who didn’t grow up a Celtic fan would stay with us instead of go to Spurs in this current footballing climate

    People are quick to forget how attached we were to Rodgers. They pretend the attachment to Ange is different, but it isn’t. You go back and look at the comments on Rodgers and the love in for him.

    After he left for Leicester, personally I can’t trust another manager regardless of what Ange says in the press

    What is the point in building a club to then walk away pre maturely that it crumbles behind him now I don’t mean we will be in bedlam but players will move right away as the new manager won’t take on players he brought in


    Only club he rebuilt and didn’t leave prematurely was marinos

    Realistically the 12month rolling contracts was always going to bite us in the * at some point.

    I don't understand why folk are saying 'it's all about the money'. Sure it is a factor but a bigger one imo is just how infuriating it must be to be a Celtic manager in Scotland.

    A guy with the standards that Ange works to must be so frustrated with the way things are run in this toilet of a country. It's an embarrassment really, as we all know. For all the EPL is a joke league with money etc. they actually take pride in their setup and talk it up constantly. It's a million miles away from the SPL in a professional sense.

    I can't believe people would ignore the negative influence Levy has on the success of Tottenham's managers and think it's logical a promising manager would jump there.

    That’s just not living in reality.

    Ange will back himself to go in there and get them top 4 first and foremost. Not to mention the ridiculous salary he’ll be on.

    It’s naive to think he would stay here if you take the emotion out of it

    It is. 3 top managers failed there. Postecoglou doesn't even have a CV that would command the players' respect, not yet.

    I do not idolize Postecoglou, but I hold him for a rational man. He won't go where his hands are tied.

    Not just the way the game is run but the other teams as well. Don’t expect them to go hung ho against us but there isnt even an attempt to play football by most of them.

    And we wonder why we are a footballing backwater with teams consistently dumped out of the euro qualifiers by teams from the Faroe Islands.

    It’s actually embarrassing how backwards our game is, aided by bent refs happy to allow challenges that would have been red carded in the 70s ffs.

    I think it's more cause it's spurs there an absolute basket case of a club. He almost certainly won't be given time to get his ideas across
