Firstly delighted to see JungleJim and Timaloy comments today I am also still raw from the events of the other night

I would like to offer up this as to where a think it started to go wrong the other night a think a said at the time Mulgrew had his worst game in a Celtic jersey and a stick by it but at the end of this am going to stick up for him because a hate when we turn on anybody but especially someone who is a Celtic fan by childhood, A think Mulgrew is someone in that dressing room until now who has has to big a say he was NL favourite, he was NL first signing a don't have much to say bad about NL but 1 of the 2 things that irked me (you could even hear him shout it on the telly mics ffs) was CHARLLLLEEEE CHARLLLEEEEEE he was giving him the instructions for others IMO, as Mrs E has pointed out we don't have many leaders as a few of the others who are also on here daily or bi-daily we lost a leader when we lost Joe Ledley! Our Leader Scott Brown is not the most articulate, nor vocal, in actual fact he likes a niggle but he is our captain

The point am trying to get too again as most of the reg contributors even Ed himself cannot figure is where Mulgrew (even Commons!) fits into this system of 4-3-3 a also think MULGREW HIMSELF must realise this too! he is in most of our opinions (a think) a great utility / squad player he is great with a dead ball situ!

The other night he lost us three goals and a pen (at least if a remember) it was his slack backpass that led to Efe getting sent off also! when it went wrong for him on a personal basis it went wrong with the influence he has/wields over the entire team! after all he was the leader the other night

However, having said this I think he will / he should get the chance to play on Wednesday night simply for this reason alone he IS a celtic supporter folks! and he will be hurting like hell for causing that escapade!

Much has been made about the connection to WGS and the Brataslavia game that is just garbage IMO a think we all now realise WGS was better than he got credit for but that game sadly lives well in my memory too that night our defence consisted of a goalie in Marshall (who knew Boruc was on the bench) Pau Telfer who had met up with the squad for that game and had been signed 48hrs earlier and made his own way there, Big Bobo who had never trained who had been negating his exit OUT of Celtic (remember he never had an agent) and a certain other new player Mo Camara! enough said

This thing with RD he has waxed lyrical about Commons and Mulgrew pre season and yet we cannot get the best player like Lubo ( a said like meaning nearest) to a new contract despite the fact that he has a desire to stay yet we can hand new contracts to Lustig & Izzy MINUS a manager?

But to play Commons through the middle RD is suppose to be an attacking coach he has assessed him over TWO months ffs! how on earth did he get deployed there? how on earth could he did not change we all know Commons is a spent force round about the 70 min mark but he is worth it!he was spent the other night in that role after 20 mins and a blind man could see it!

A hope we win a really do, to those who have faith a will side with you but having given up a great asset in that arena, to borrow a phrase "are we going to get the thunder" at murrayfield?

sorry for my rumble Ed had to get it off my chest but maybe that last line above about Murrayfield is our next poll mate?

Agree0 Disagree0

Ed as ever much obliged ;-)

{Ed007's Note - No worries.}

I agree with most of what ATVB JB7 has to say apart from his idea of playing Mulgrew next Wednesday night because he is a Celtic fan . There are many Celtic fans never get a game without playing someone who had a complete nightmare .

If mulgrew is dropped, which I personally don't see happening, who do u want playing and in which positions? Personally I know he had an absolute shocker but there was a good few others who were nil and void on the night. For me mulgrew has to drop in beside VVD in place of ambrose. We don't have another player in my opinion that's decent enough to play there. Keep lustig out on the right, izzy on the left and for god sake play players in they're natural positions and play the 4-4-2. Forget that big Norwegian signing and get griffiths up top. I know he's not everyone's cup of tea right now but he's probably the most natural finisher at the club and at the end of the day it's goals next midweek that we desperately need!

I'm a Celtic supporter should I be getting a game? Your post is ridiculous. Mulgrew has had one great season at CB and that is it, he's matured into a mediocre player and simply isn't good enough for us. He should never have been given captaincy and shouldn't be any where near the first team. And for those saying he should be a squad member? So paying a below average player to sit on the bench just in case is acceptable?

Definitely Garry we do need to keep it simple on Wednesday and play to the players strengths, any formation experiments need to be kept until Ronny has a team that can play that way.

A 4-1 defeat speaks much louder than any talk straight out of a football manager manual ever will.

Can't see Mulgrew getting dropped.

Well a nice narrow minded response from Toprig would have typed/suggested that they could call upon all of us to play not just YOU, point a was trying to make was like him or not give him the chance to rectify it! as I think I aired HE IS the voice in that squad, to suggest our VICE captain is not good enough to be a squad player? teeters into the realms of a retort as to who is being ridiculous now? atb jb7
