I have been led to believe from Celtic supporters over the years that any criticism of Neil Lennon is always sectarian. Now I’m confused.

Same. I thought it was because we all hate Catholics?

This always happens. 

Negative Rangers story,  it's a Rangers problem. 

Negative celtic story, it's an old firm problem or whit aboot Sevco. 

 

Just laugh it off, it makes yesterday a lot more sweeter.

The best bit about this is that after last nights rioting the celtic board can't be seen to cave in to that sort of pressure,  so Lennon will be staying where he is. 

I did wonder that myself. If they do sack him I reckon they will wait a wee bit and make it seem they have arrived at the decision of their own accord rather than bow to fans rioting which could set a dangerous precedent.

Either way, as Monday mornings go, this is glorious.

The pressure won’t dissipate if the board don’t make a change however it has to be channeled in a very different way to what was seen last night. The PLC has a responsibility to do what is in the best interest of the club and its shareholders and keeping someone in charge who is overseeing one of the worst run of results in decades resulting in huge losses of revenue and significant impact to share price would be negligent.

The fallout from loosing the league with Lennon still in charge if that happens will be huge and will not doubt see ST sales crumble also. The board are every bit as culpable as Lennon though and he’s being thrown under the bus by Peter Lawell by keeping him in charge. He shouldn’t be in this position as the change should have been made a while back.

If PL/DD do persist with NL though it shows nothing but contempt for the fans and I can’t see a way that strategy will be of benefit to them, PL has a bonus to protect after all and that too is crumbling away faster then Celtics chances of retaining the league

I don't care who started it, I'm finishing it the now!

Is G51 not the Rangers supporter who admitted to supporting them because his dad and uncle supported one each for a laugh and they were on the telly a lot?

Not sure about the dad and uncle, but “he lives up north so how could he possibly support anyone else?” was the gist of it I think.

Genuinely can’t get over the Celtic fan saying that going from 1st to 2nd was an unparalleled downward trajectory

Haha, to be honest I knew it was coming. This is the first time since I joined P&B that there's been a genuine 'Let's All Laugh At Celtic" moment and it certainly seems that Rangers fans are not included in 'All' and are the only ones not allowed to join in, which I find rather ironic given we are their biggest rivals 😄

Yes.  He claimed he didn't support the Caley or County as they're too far away (think he lives in Wick or Thurso or some other bumpkin village), so supports Rangers instead.

@ me next time you little bitch

Like I said, I supported Rangers because we didn't have a local team. Mostly because the "Scottish" Football League blacklisted Highland clubs from joining the professional setup. Rangers and Celtic were on the telly, so most people picked one of them. It's pretty simple, but people from the Central Belt don't really understand this. You go up to the Far North, the Western Isles, the Orkneys or the Shetlands, it's the same all over.

I have to say, the funniest thing about this is Celtic's season completely disintegrating, but a close second is the piousness of non-OF fans claiming that only they are fit to laugh at Celtic because Rangers fans are no "better" than Celtic fans and would also protest their board. Of course we would! So would you! Hamilton literally did this a few weeks ago! Motherwell did it at the end of McGhee's tenure!

There is almost nothing funnier on Pie and Bovril than one set of fans thinking they're intrinsically better than other people because of the football team they support. It's glorious.

pal the only "meltdown" im having is my ice cream melting down into my hand while I lay on the beach & laugh while thinking about the trolls

How's Salcoats beach these days?

Social media meltdown - Celtic fans are split into two camps. The get him tae f**k and riot and the get him to f**k and be dignified, both factions are accusing the other lot of *** behaviour. They don't see that they are a mirror image of each other. Entitlement is a terrible curse.

The downward trajectory isn’t about going from1st to 2nd. If you think that’s what I meant by that then I am genuinely mystified by the short-sightedness however let me clarify what I mean by unparalleled downward trajectory for Celtic

  • 2 wins out of 10 games which is unparalleled for Celtic
  • 4 consecutive home defeats which hasn’t happened in over 60 years
  • Out of the Europa league with 1 point out of 4 games with 13 goals conceded in 4 games. This is a team with ambition for Champions League yet we have fallen so far we aren’t even capable now of a decent performance in the lower tier of Euro competition now. It used to be PSG and Barca scudding us now is Sparta Prague.
  • A team that’s has won 11 trophies on the bounce capitulating to an out of form, injury ravaged Ross County team at Celtic Park.
  • 11 points behind Rangers and it’s isn’t even December yet, even taking games in hand into account that’s about a 15 point swing from where we finished last season. 

I’ve seen some utter shite from Celtic in the 35 years I’ve been going however I’ve never ever seen a run of games like this, we have had some howling one off results over the years but nothing like the sustained ineptitude as what we are seeing now so it has nothing to do with going from1st to 2nd and everything to do with the above and more, and it has the potential to get much much worse. If this form continues we may even struggle to keep 2nd.
