    So let me get this straight.
    Ange doing well: Great news for Celtic
    Ange doing well: Great news for Aus football.

    Who cares who was right and who was wrong? At the end of the day Celtic fans just wanted what’s best for this club and Aus football fans just wanted a little respect on the big stage.

    Both have come to fruition. Win win.

    Alan Brazil can get *, though.

    1. defeat at Ibrox. Tired of people blaming him for selecting his 18 million 6' 2" striker to lead the line over a 5'6' skinny Japanese recruit who'd shared all of a couple of lunches with his team mates since flying over from Japan to then start in the couldren of a derby like no other. Yes he admitted that was a "mistake", but his "mistake" was not seeing that Eduard should have been frozen out completely as he had no desire to play for Celtic anymore, but he couldn't do that as the club gave him no other option. Eduoard's miss remains the miss of the season, that could have changed everything, and could yet cost you the league. That is on the player, not the manager.

    2. Away to Betis. Some facts: "Celtic have lost each of their last seven ties in Spain by an aggregate score of 20-2 with their last draw coming against Barcelona in 2004.". Postevcoglou's Celtic scored as many goals in Spain in 27 minutes of football as Celtic had scored in its entire footballing history!

    As for the other dubious decisions, well that's what happens when you're bedding in a complete club overhaul, basically off your own hands.

    Not yet, progress and signs are good, but it can just as quickly turn pear shaped, I reserve judgement till the end of the season and see where we are at.

    Lennons vision of team bonding is going out on the *. If you ever listen to any of the open goal interviews from his first stint the players mention promises of night outs being made if they win. James Forrest missed the game against Dundee United after the Karagandy game because he was hungover. The players went on a bender after that game led by their manager. Anyway sorry I mentioned that *

    Born in Australia to Greek parents (with another 800,000 of us Greeks born or living in Aus), but I live in Greece. The NZ "insults" literally has zero affects on me.


    Call me a Turk if you want me going off my rocket :ange2:

    Didn't know there was a difference. You learn something new every day.

    Lads I'm so tired of seeing this Aussies vs Scotsmen pish.

    Who gives a * if some people were right or wrong with their expectations of Big Ange?

    Surely the only thing that matters is that he's doing a great job and 99.9% of us are actually happy with the situation as it's turned out.

    If you were right about Ange, congrats, I'll buy you a medal next time I find myself in Poundstretcher. If you were wrong, well, obviously you're happy anyway.

    Let's move on.
