Amid all the debates, should RD be sacked or should we stand by him! Who is to blame is it DD, PL and JP or RD and JC! What players need to do better and which ones are shining! What areas need improving? I just want to say what a fantastic site this is! Keep up the great work Ed007!

{Ed007's Note - Thanks very much mate, that's appreciated.}

Might be the only post where no one will disagree lol.

Just after watching a film called Iceman, he was a bit more decisive than you.

There's people on here who blame the board, who blame Lawwell, who blame Desmond, but they never blame Ronnie, Ronnie is untouchable, he is always the good guy, to some people, in their eyes, he can do no wrong, his hands are tied behind his back, he has players forced on him, now you might think I am totaly anti Ronnie, but I am not, But if all these apoligists keep standing up for him, he is never going to learn from his mistakes, he will continue to play Armstrong out of position, he will continue to ignore Allan when the team is crying out for a creative player, he will continue to play Johansenn, when he is injured, out of form, he wil continue to rest Tierney, because he is a young growing bhoy and can't be played to often, abd there is Effe, who I think is a really good footballer, but he is not a defender, i think there is a place or him in the team, but not in defence.

Aindoh no matter what happens Ronnie is never going to change his philosophy of attacking football. He has no intention of closing down a game when he goes 2 goals up in order to win. He is not a winner who will find ways to win against better opposition. He is a purist and will never change. That does not make a good manager but many on here think that it does. How will we ever progress when TD and Collins come out and say we will never change? It's now becoming pure arragance. They talk about the players learning from their mistakes but I never hear RD and Collins saying that they will learn from their own mistakes that have been plenty. He is fortunate that as we have better players and bigger budgets we have no competition in Scotland or he wouldn't still be in charge. So he is never going to change. I wish he would as there is a manager in there but he has painted himself into a corner and he just won't admit it.

{Ed001's Note - sorry to intrude, but you said a purist that will never change does not make a good manager. Does that mean you don't think Pep Guardiola is a good manager?}

Ed Pep Guadiola knows how to win. Read it again Ed. if you know how to win whilst being a purist then why change. That's perfect. If you can't work out how to win like Ronnie, but insist on doing the same thing whilst expecting a different result its pure madness. 10 games in Europe 0 wins yet Collins says we will never change!

{Ed001's Note - wasn't he winning before arriving at Celtic, isn't he winning the league with Celtic? I am not sure it is me that needs to read it again, I think it is you that needs to rethink. Brian Clough was a purist who refused to compromise his ideals. Was he a bad manager? Leeds United fans would certainly say he was, but that does not mean it is true.}

Ed before Celtic he won 1 league title and 1 cup in 10 years. Not exactly pulling up trees. Regardless of what he has or has not done winning the SPL is a given. Do you think he would still be in the job if he failed to win the SPL? Of course he wouldn't. So how do you judge him? In Europe where he has competition he has no wins out of his last 10 games. He has amassed 2 points from 5 games in EL. But he won't change how he plays. So more of the same next year I fear.

{Ed001's Note - I fully understand what you are saying, all I am saying is that it doesn't necessarily make him a bad manager, even if he is not right for Celtic.}

Ed I agree totally with that statement. He is an inexperienced manager and the Celtic job came too early. If he could get a coaching job under one of the experiance Managers he could be great. He has never worked under a successful manager so he is still learning. I know that Celtic fans me included have unrealistic expectations at times but results talk. The club is a mess top to bottom. The player recruit policy is awful. The selling of players gives us little chance of building anything. Then we add a manager who has no idea about what fans expect or playing at a higher level unrealistically or not. PL works to a different agenda and frightens us into submission by quoting Rangers. He thinks his job is to make money regardless of the product on the park. He knows it's a short term strategy but he can walk away in a couple of years when his strategy begins to unravel and it will. But look at Ronnies European record. It's as poor as any previous Celtic manager.

{Ed001's Note - the problem is definitely above Deila, he may not be the right man either, but you will never know under this board, no one could really succeed long term.}

29 Nov 2015 12:54:06
Ed, no one can argue with that statement, you are right. I believe RD is another product of the cost cutting mentality from PL and in the medium to short term the entire strategy is costing millions. Gates are dropping, no CL revenue but we keep £10 mill a season coming in from sales then chuck £5 mill away on poor transfers in. It's too cosy for PL, DD and Parks. We need a new CEO who is more skilled than PL. now we pay enough to attract that person. There in lies the problem.

{Ed001's Note - it is a shame, as they seem to have forgotten the primary reason for a football club is putting the best product on the pitch, rather than running it to make money.}
