Celtic thread 2020/21

Morelos is a thug and has gotten away with murder this season again. No one can argue with that
Should have been sent off in three seperate games this season each time with the scoreline at 0-0
Will get done retrospectively as usual but sure wheres the fairness in that. Keep your 11 men on the pitch and go on and win the game but we'll ban you again to show we aren't that corrupt.
Another honest mistake

These aren't excuses on my part on how bad Celtic have been or how good Rangers have been. They fully deserve the title and have been miles better.
Surely Gerrard is losing patience with the wee rat by now though. The masons with the whistle can't keep saving him

Did the refs just turn Masons this season again, they never seem to be masons when Celtic were winning trophy after trophy?
 
Think Morelos should get banned for the rest of the season and see if Celtic can narrow the gap to a single figure ;)

I'm Scottish, & many have a 2nd team now, like a lot of the Irish do. Hence, my Username. ;-)

Do you think Morelos should have been red carded last night and at Dundee United?

Aye, I think he probably deserved to go both times. Don't think it's a big masonic conspiracy though, just think our refs aren't very good.

Or, I've seen a couple of Celtic fans theories that Lawwell wanted a strong Rangers & Rangers to win the league as its better for business long term, perhaps its part of that agenda?!
 
Found this funny.Still a #### though.
The Bridgeton Loyal have started a go fund me page to get the Red Arrows to fly over Ibrox when we win our 55th league title , the target is £14k to cover the cost of the fly over, currently they are sitting at just over £9k , looks like this target will be smashed very soon , outstanding guys .

Yep that famous mason Clancy.

Who was educated at St Aloysius and put in the most biased performance of all time last year for Celtic against Rangers.

Was that the game he actually sent of Morelos?
Very biased I’m sure. Suppose wee Alfredo was victimized

Of all time? Really? The hyperbole is strong in this one. :) I think FIFA should get involved and burn him.at the stake. We can't have a Scottish ref holding the "most biased performance of all time" award. What would the Italians say for starters? I'm emailing the cunts in the morning, something needs to be done.

Hyperbole, after some of the stuff that gets posted on this thread?!

Looks like you have 1 of your wishes anyway, Lawwell retiring at the end of the season to be replaced by Dominic McKay of the SRU.

Can't say I'm happy with the Rugby ****, looks too cautious and presbyterian, with a small p for my liking. And if you don't want hyperbole on this thread don't post it. Like your man there with the greatest ever most biased in world history pish.

Difficult to make any sort of judgement on these appointments. Think what you (& most clubs actually) look for in a role like this is he knows his strengths & more importantly his limitations, & gets football people & a structure in place to help support that, something which I think you have said has been lacking under Lawwell.

Gunner, as I may have mentioned, I can't remember now, but, I haven't been a fan of the Lawell for over ten years. This isn't a personality clash just business.

My understanding of what a CEO should be about is growing the company. People, and by fuck there are many, who look at Lawells tenure and say, he has done that. Celtic were on a sound financial footing etc. That this has been achieved through shrewd stewardship of the club and developing additional income streams to augment the limited resources available in the Scottish game. And again it seems he has through his strategy.

Here's the problem though, and it resides in the area of Opportunity Cost. This means in economic terms, what was the cost of your choices and what could have been achieved and wasn't through the decisions taken. Our main chance to grow financially, stature wise and in football strength is in the CL. So you would expect any CEO to have qualifying for that their number one objective. If that is achieved then the £40m+ per year would enable us to move up many levels covering a variety of things. If we look at Lawell over the last 12 years, what should be his main objective, he failed 9 out of 12 years. That's 9 x £40m+ lost through, never being prepared. Never accepting that quality costs but the rewards are great. Buying cheap.and hoping it would be enough, year after year, when this approach failed 75% of the time.

So, the Opportunity Cost of a risk averse egotistical ****, was to chase after a fiver blowing down the street, whilst a lorry load of cash passed by. He also took bonuses in years where he failed to qualify, of around £3.2m annually. That's the same amount we earned for winning the treble. So, he takes all of that and fails to secure the £40m and he's a hero?

The new guy needs to look at where the money is and ask, what do we need to do to secure that? Spoiler alert, going cheap, buying punts, not having the players in for the qualifiers, isn't the way to go. If he needs any proof that doesn't work, he should look at our woeful decline over the last few years in qualifying and if he wants to avoid a 75% failure rate like Pistol, he needs to ensure we have the strength on the pitch to negotiate the qualifying rounds.

An added bonus to this will be, the more successful you are in a euro context, the more people and companies want to be associated with your club.

Lawell was a failure. 9 out of 12 failing to secure the biggest pot of cash proves that. We are now skint because of this failure and this day I have been predicting for years has arrived. So, unlike many who will be hailing him, I look at what could have been, the Opportunity Cost, if we didn't have a risk averse shitebag who failed to see the importance of our greatest income generating opportunity 75% of the time.

He looks too Presbyterian?

Do you have any hope that Celtic and Rangers will ever move beyond sectarianism?

Did you read the "with a small p"?" Do you know what that means? Away and look it up. It has nothing to do with religion, rather a dour, coulourless, strict and restricted view. After the reformation colour, ceremony and art were looked on as frivolous, unnecessary and evil. I like colour, artistry, taking risks and flamboyance. That's what I was meaning.

No it doesn’t. You’re lying again. I just keep catching you out.

Of course you could be right and google could be wrong but I can’t find one result that doesn’t mention religion.

And I used a small ‘p’.
