    Listening to Clyde coming back from the game and the panel were saying every team has an off day and the fans reactions are just knee * type reactions after a poor performance. Nawww......we have had too many poor performances this season and any more of these performances will see us loosing the league and it's not a knee * reaction as every Celtic fan and their granny knows that we have needed to strengthen several positions in our team - especially LB, GK and CF. It's particularly damning that we haven't sorted the LB position since KT left and that was years ago.

    Why should we be forcing the board out when we loose it...and not now?

    Where are all these fans that turn up in their droves to knock * outta Lennon and break gates down? Attempting to give abuse to the board back 3 years ago?

    Usual....We wait till its too late to do * anything.....

    We loose this league a majority of fans will * off and never come back because we will be in a mess.

    Handing Huns £65 million quid.....Who will spend a majority of it as well.

    And we are 1 draw/defeat away from this becoming a reality,because i swear Sevco will NOT be allowed to drop any points till the end.

    Problem is we're in the middle of a season so any change ups of that scale are going to effect the football side of things. The Board are willing to risk the season with their greed and I'm willing to see if the risk pays off, if it doesn't, they can burn.

    If it pays off we'll have 110m+ in the bank and many assets in players worth 70m+.

    If the scum get Shankland in before the window closes then it will make the run in very interesting. The boards arrogance and lack of investment will be to blame.
    Should have I really don’t know option for the vote.

    We need to add quality for me. I can see us dropping points.

    I think Rodgers needs to change up his tactics also. We should be refreshed after the break but instead we look devoid of energy and ideas.

    Looks at the state of the next 10/11 fixtures. We are away in 7 of them, Huns at home in 8. We will never be top after that. Leagues as good as gone I’d think.

    There's an ominous feeling about this season, a bit like the 10IAR one.......

    Same * board, same lack of investment, huns going for it.

    We haven't imploded (yet), but we should be miles ahead, especially as they had Moley in charge for the first part of the season.

    Going to be tight,a lot of people on saying the hun are crap blah blah blah,guess what?they only have to be good enough to beat us and as things stand the way we are playing thats a real possability.

    Said it a while back imo Rodgers has lost the team(cant get them motivated)and to me it becomes more obvious after every game.

    Maybe if we get a few fresh faces in,it may inject some energy into our team but if we dont i fear the worse.

    I said no because of our inability to break down the league *, the fact we're spending * all this window, Huns dropping no points to the bottom ten any more plus all the * decisions that keep going the Hun's way means we really do need a miracle.

    About a month ago I kept hearing about how they had a hard run of games coming up. Who's the only ones to take points off them? Answers on a postcard please.

    Difference between then an now is that than they had a cockney mug who was playing IRL fitbaw manager, now they have a manager who has a semblance of what it takes to manage a football team.

    Us on the other hand have taken back the dirty slag that cheated on us and welcomed her back with open arms.

    The league is an irrelevance to me, now.

    Said yesterday but I’ve just kinda fell out of love with the club. I’m struggling to understand how the club can genuinely defend their woeful recruitment and their hoarding of our money over the last few years.

    Dermot Desmond is a cancer upon this football club. An absentee, majority shareholder who would rather golf in Ireland than watch the club he effectively owns compete in cup finals. The horrible * didn’t even turn up to Bertie Aulds funeral. The greatest ambassador the club has ever had and undoubtedly will ever have.

    His control over the board and the club strangles us. His friendships with Peter Lawwall and his attitude for the club and its fan base means he’s never going to be the man who unlocks the potential this football club has. The world of football has changed since he became major shareholder and its time he left it in the hands of someone who is willing to control the club.

    I still love Celtic more than anything but the time is now to demand change. The COVID season cast a massive shadow across the club for many reasons. We acted when it was too late. They cannot hide from us now. There was a worrying lack of anti board shouts yesterday. This has to now become the norm.

    I would love to see the heads of all fan groups come together to now begin the serious process of the removal of this board of amateurs. I advocate nothing illegal but I think something we could start doing is getting scarfs made up of specific colours, to display our hope for a removal of the custodians of this club. It didn’t work for Man Utd fans and their attempts to remove the Glazers but it was a clear indication of where the majority of the fan base sitting at Old Trafford stood. Red and White strips but there was Green and Yellow scarfs everywhere.

    I’m not the smartest guy to do this but surely if someone could set up a page with names, season tickets holders and fans who want this board removed, it would catch fire in the press conferences and become a serious talking point within the country. I reckon if you have enough sign ups, it catches fire and grows from there.

    Great post mate and share a lot of your thoughts on current situation.

    Left the game early yesterday and spent entire drive home questioning why I continue to go to games with club in the way it is.

    I agree about needing a figure head to pull supporters groups/fan base together to mobilise a serious protest but in this day and age of social media and online abuse I don't see someone stepping up to he a Matt McGlone type. I also think there are too many happy clapper who wouldn't support it and end up turning on the other fans.

    I'm really struggling to see where we go from here while they * are running the club.

    Aye. This time last year I was feeling about as positive as I ever have about the club. Mad how much can change in a year.

    Leagues finished.

    We had to extend that lead during last round of fixtures with the home and away split. Dropped 8 points in 4 weeks killed us.

    I said last week we had to be perfect 16 out of 16 to win title. We won't. We are a poor team. Huns are worse but they have the better fixtures and the refs.

    We will lose the next 3 games on the spin in league and Cup that's a certainty. Rangers will win league by 10 points or more.

    Leagues finished, rangers have a treble.

    Manager won't see the season out, if he does should be sacked in May.

    Lawwell and his spawn along with the cabal on the board should be hunted but we know they won't, they survived in 2021 and got lucky with ange.

    Fed up with celtic ruining my mental health and days daily. Couldn't give a * now if they folded tomorrow probably do a lot of us a favour

    Probably a good thing, given the * turnip patch we're trying to play on at home.

    I know.

    We should wait until it’s far too late, then start throwing shark barriers.
