    Those are the facts, mate. You can laugh them off all you want, but it won't make them any less relevant.

    Basically, your chat about Deila having something personal against Stokes (I believe you used the word "hate") is absolute *. There's a list of reasons as to why Stokes isn't playing in the team.

    Even Lennon said in the past that Stokes worst enemy was himself.

    Just for fun really. Pointing out where he's talking * is like burning an insect on a sunny day with a magnifying glass :icon_mrgreen:

    Every person connected with the club should want to "go out of their way"
    to help RD because by doing that they will be helping the team & club, anyone
    who can't see that is challenged, at least.

    The coloured post seems more relevant.

    These are disputed facts. many of them vicious tittle tattle. Nobody is laughing them off, they could wreck Stoke's Celtic career.

    But you don't know that do you ?. I have been long enough in this game to be able to tell when a manager has an unseemly dislike of a player, and then resorts to outright lying to cover up his antipathy towards Stokes.


    That could be said of anyone. You, I, anybody.

    Very good point. We're nostalgically remembering Stokes good points but the one time he had a run of games under Deila he was pretty poor.

    That being said I'm a fan of Stokes but I'd like him to go to ICT and get some game time in.

    Not if the manager is a clown, is wrecking the club and has polarised the club right down the middle, and conducts vendettas against certain players because of his infantile immaturity and inability to handle * football players.

    Why would you or any other Celtic supporter on this board want to save a manager who is single handedly wrecking the club.?

    That sounds bizarre to me. Please calibrate your comments ?

    They aren't disputed at all though, are they?

    He was left out of the final game of the season by Lenny in 2011 for breaching discipline at the club's hotel, wasn't he?

    In December of 2012 he was spotted at the funeral of IRA member Alan Ryan, wasn't he? And Lennon warned him against damaging the reputation of the club by attending events like this, didn't he?

    He did * off Lennon due to his attitude during rehab for an ankle injury, didn't he?

    In March 2013 he did say in an interview that he "doesn't really care what the Celtic manager thinks of him personally", didn't he?

    In June 2013 he was arrested for an alleged assault, wasn't he? For which he's due in court shortly, isn't he?

    In February 2015 he did return late from a trip to Dublin and was left out of the side to face Inter as a result, wasn't he?

    In November 2015 he did have a sly dig at the manager on social media, didn't he?

    All of the above are factual. No "tittle tattle", and not disputed by anyone other than you and your ilk.

    You've been long enough in * all game, mate. You're a fan, posting on an internet forum. You're "experience" means the square root of * all to me.

    All you have to back up your opinion is conjecture and cobbled together nonsense, you try to pass off your opinion as though it's fact.

    It could be, but it was said about Stokes by his former manager, which is why it's relevant to the discussion.

    Your hatred of the guy is astounding. You do know that hatred can impact a persons ability to reason and think critically on a subject? As you demonstrate regularly on here.

    I am a Celtic supporter and I want the manager to do well.

    Imagine that.:rolleyes:

    You don't think Stokes has had a hand in his Celtic career ending up like this?

    He's just been hard done by, for the sake of it? :87:

    Its clear to see some have a massive vendetta against Stokesy. Or should I say, leaping to any defence of Ronny. Flinging mud at players, fans and anyone else that dares critise Ronny.

    This siege mentality defence is leading us up the garden path.

    Look, I personally don't think there's anything wrong with him attending a memorial event of this type. It was a personal matter and not club-related, but the fact is that the club took a dim view of it;

    Exactly.

    I think going to Inverness would give him the required time to get his match-sharpness up to speed as opposed to staying here and not getting anything.

    I have no vendetta against Stokes, and would actually love to see him named in the starting eleven tomorrow.

    All I'm pointing out is that there are reasons as to why he's been frozen out of the side. This isn't a case of big bad Deila holding a personal grudge against him.

    How is doctor venglos still here? He pretty much confirmed to everyone yesterday that he's not a Celtic fan in the match thread for the Stranraer game.

    Yeah but he didn't as far as I know attend the funeral and the pictures were from the memorial not the funeral itself which is why Venglos is disputing what you put.
