    Last 16 of a Tournament where we regularly play against teams that are in bigger and better leagues, better squads and more money than us. It is an achievement.

    I await for you to point out the outlier that is Aalborg though and try to blow it out of proportion though to make an argument...

    Why didnt you apply for the job then? :rolleyes:

    Your talking * Martin.

    Why dont you tell people what you really think of Strachan? I've asked several times and answered your question but you keep dodging mine. I wonder why.....

    It's disgusting how some supporters treat the celtic manager with contempt. After everything it makes me feel ashamed that we all can't sing a mans name at CP to show a humble thank you! News flash seville is in the past & Martin O'neill's never coming back.

    The contempt WGS has shown for the support is disgusting.

    Quotes please

    I'll give you one

    "There's never a game which means nothing to this club"

    - Gordon Strachan

    Is that contempt?

    Are you suggesting that I believe he shows contempt for the support in every single quote he utters ?

    What a laughably bad argument !! Why don't you quote him ordering a curry or something?

    Devil dugs, can of Kestrel - there's one for you.

    That's unfounded and untrue.

    That's your opinion. He has shown a lack of respect on several occasions.

    Can you quote one? I know his attitude can provoke criticism but I've never seen him actually disrespect the fans or show them "digusting contempt".

    If you were the manager Martin, would you have agreed with the callers phoning in and just quit when the going got tough? Would you bow to the Ned Brigade?

    I've seen it now, and don't think it's showing contempt to celtic fans at all.

    Although you said he'd done it on "several occasions," so surely you have another few examples?

    I'd never read that full quote before Dempsey, I had only ever heard the devil dug part of it.

    That puts a whole new perspective on it as I didn't realise how much out of context the quote had been taken by the press.

    The team we have just now are capable of playing amazing football, pity we don't see it nearly as often as we should do. That's my main criticism of the manager anyway, but as has been said by many as long as the league titles keep coming in then you have to give the man credit.

    Bigotry :56:
