    100%..

    The futures bleak by the way..

    No matter what anyone thinks here, they've completely gone against/failed to back their man..

    When he goes, I think we're in real real bother. Be interesting who we bring in but ultimately the board will probably let them down as they do every single person who's in the hot seat..

    It's gonna be toe curling..

    The way he's been grilled at pressers all window has been behind the sofa stuff. Proper hard to watch..

    Even fan media guys have had him unable to answer stuff over the last week.....things he shouldn't need questioning on either..

    He's usually very good in front of the camera's but no lately and understandably so..

    I’d love him to walk now. Yes it would be painful but there would definitely be no hiding places for those on the board. Incidentally, I wonder what that result in the CL has done to the share price.

    Walk Brendan your not culpable for this * show. Your reputation is restored. Call the board out and walk. Would be the best thing you can do for the club.

    See if he did walk this time, I think every Celtic fan would be behind him, and it would be a major shake up to those above if he did.

    He wont after what happened last time though, he'll 100% finish the season and won't look back.

    Be interesting to see who we get next summer as manager, board wouldn't get away with Kennedy, Maloney or Lennon but I'm sure they'll find some other stooge.

    I really wanted Brendan back in 2023, despite how he left us. He broke my heart, but he’s still a top class manager and our most successful since MON.

    If he resigned tomorrow because they let Idah go without a replacement, I’d fully understand why.

    So ironic isn’t it. He’s likely scarred from the hate he got for leaving midway through the season the first time around, regardless of what people think of him, he’s clearly a Celtic fan and that would have hurt him.

    That hurt is probably what’s keeping him here because he doesn’t want to leave again like the last time. So ironic that he would be backed by 95% of the fan base if he called them out: he would lauded.

    Don’t quit, call them out, get sacked, take them to a tribunal, get paid with your reputation intact

    Aye there'd be murmurs but if anyone was in any doubt then they only needed to sit painfully through today/this evening to see what's what..

    You're right though about the bad feeling of last time. If this was his first stint or that midway slip off to Leicester hadn't happened, there's no way he'd be here tomorrow after this *..

    ''There's interest in Adam but like I've said to the club, we can't let anyone go, especially on the front line, unless we have replacements''

    the 'as I've said to the club' part is damning, he has been betrayed by the board and hung out to dry, he should leave with his head held high.

    Whats a shame for him now is that hes probably * either way. He knows if he walks hes reneged on his promise and if he stays he knows his reputation is going to be tainted by a season of * ahead.

    He’s never going to walk in to unemployment and throw £3million away.

    He better slate them in his next press conference. Heavily.

    By the way, everyone saying he’s within his rights to walk this time.

    He was well within his rights to walk last time.

    He wanted Schar, McGinn and Castagne.

    He got Mulumbu, and Musonda and Toljan on loan.

    I was astonished when he returned, and even more so now.

    Absolutely insane to me that after blocking Idahs move.. the board have overrided Rodgers, sold the former and will bring in zero strikers despite the demand for 2.

    I wouldn't blame him if he walked after this.
    I'd fully support it infact.

    He’s got a property portfolio worth about £40m apparently: £3m is * all to him.

    I've been about done with him, pish poor football from last season spilling into this season, and just not showing any signs of getting better. In isolation I'd have been glad for a change.

    But all that is a separate issue at this point. I absolutely want him to come out and give it both barrels on how he's been shafted. It's well known am patient wae how we work as a club but this is way beyond the pale.

    He needs to resign and not hold back in his explanation of exactly why. Falling short with signings is annoying usually but under no circumstances should we have been left this short. Absolutely shocking state of affairs.

    He must come out and tear through this board. If he gets sacked he’d live my full respect

    He won’t walk but I’d have more respect for him if he did. Hes partly to blame for how * we are but the board have completely sold him short
