    Is it just me or is anyone else not sick of the way Strachan conducts himself towards the interviewers?

    Eg. Today when asked what his thoughts where on the speculation of Boruc leaving he answered with something like

    "Today is about the Semi-Final"


    Even though moments before he was talking about the Last 16 and the 28 game unbeaten run. We as Celtic fans deserve the right to know what is going on about the club.

    Also yesterday in an Interview he was again asked the question and he responded with:

    "I haven't heard anything, What time is the Kick-Off tomorrow?"

    Or along those lines.

    Then after the match he refused to come out to have an Interview?? I mean we just reached the Scottish Cup Final and he couldn't be arsed talking about it?

    These are just recent examples and it annoys me how he always does this we have a right to know about these sort of things and when Owen Coyle was interviewed he conducted it very well unlike Strachan!

    Rant Over :47::47:

    It puts a bad view towards us as a club when our Manager can't answer simple questions in an Interview!

    Strachan is a * genius, he's one of the only managers whom I'll stick around for to listen to the interviews because you're usually gonna get a few laughs. The media deserve every bit of contempt they get.

    He's rude. Journalists are just doing their job. It's part of football. All he has to say is "I'm sorry, I can't comment on transfer speculation." and that would be the end of it. Being polite doesn't cost a thing.

    He can't win. The same fans who complain about the bias amongst the laptop loyal come on here complaining that WGS should be sugary sweet with the media.

    * them, he could spit in the faces of most Scottish journalists as far as I'm concerned.

    With a worldwide club like Celtic fans all over the world want a more appealing face and GS tends to come across as arrogant which does him no favours and add to the celtic "worlds out to get us image"

    But TBH I dont really care when we win however I want to heard a deep analysis on why we didnt win against the likes of Rangers, instaed of the chestnut "didnae take oor chances"

    i dont agree with the way wgs conducts himself, but in all fairness maybe he doesnt want to start speculation before a major cup game

    Dave .. I agree with you 100%

    He is only speaking his mind, based on the facts in front of him...
    Perhaps some Celtics fans also expect him to be a mind reader !

    You don't need to be a Mind-Reader to know when your team is playing the next day..

    Or is that another one of his 'funny' jokes?

    He doesn't give a * about reporters or what they have to say. So he treats them accordingly.

    GS is struggling and that includes with the media as well!
    He GS has been through all this before down south, and I see a similar thing happening, he will probably lose it and leave? :86:
