Though, I just can’t imagine him being anywhere near as tenacious as Reid.

    Why not give McBride a place on the board instead? He’s already a fans favourite and has the SFA running scared.

    I would be sceptical if McBride got the job. Maybe it's just a prejudice i have against the judiciary but i don't trust the guy.

    shame. not fond of his politics but he was a great servant to the club. very happy how he conducted himself during the issues, namely refereeing, in the season.

    i honestly wouldn't mind Paul McBride QC becoming our next chairman lol.

    Well that's that then. Have to say I think he's been a very good chairman, despite all the opposition he's had.

    His political credentials made him almost untouchable – we benefitted greatly from this.

    Well thats a start in the right direction now to get rid of Lawwell and the others!
    Maybe then we will get a Celtic team capable of competing in Europe, without embarrassment

    Disappointed to see him go, which is something I never thought I would be saying when he got the job.

    you know that the board have done nothing but good for celtic in the last few years? its that attitude that you have that would kill our club.

    i dont know who the next chairman will be, but he better have the balls to stand up to the sfa and anyone else.
