Don't know if anyone saw the article think it was in a newspaper and on celticnewsfirst.com anyway it's an interview with Lennon talking bout how he doesn't really believe in long term projects and only really thinks short term as he doesn't know how long he would be here now a would find that quite a worrying comment coming from a celtic manager surely he should have long term plans in place ensuring the future of club instead of just thinking short term maybe this is his reluctance to play youth players/fringe players as he's only interested in the short term was just wondering had u read this ed or anyone else as don't know how reliable this website is

{Ed007's Note - Yes I've read it Dez and it is using direct quotes from NL in the past and yesterday so it is what he actually said. 99% of the time if the press use direct quotes from someone you can take it as truthful, it's when you get into the 'Sly sources understands' or 'a club insider told us' kind of talk that you start getting into the realms of fantasy.}

A just wasn't sure how reliable the website was ed what was your take on what he said

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - Since the summer I have thought this could be NL's last season as CFC manager, reading his words does nothing to make me change my mind.}

The last thing we want is to be looking for a new manager in 18 months just as a tribute act possibly reappears in the league.I really feel we need to commit a manager to a longer contract this summer, I would be happy for that to be NL but wouldn't be surprised if he didn't want to put his family through all that sh!t again.

Agree0 Disagree0

I've not read article and have said many times NL should go because he has stagnated the club. However by saying these things and I think he will go at end of season should we let him go out spending money. He's going to leave the team in the same state as Fergie left Man Utd albeit celtic will still be capable of winning league and cups. Lucky got us! If this is your intention Neil go sooner rather than later and let someone build up their own team for CL. Thanks for what you have achieved. Thank u and good night.

Any idea why NL was at the aberdeen motherwell game, ed?

Believable0 Unbelievable0

{Ed007's Note - Probably because it was the biggest game in the country and we play Aberdeen in a couple of weeks time in the cup.}

How many penalties have been awarded this season to sevco?

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Especially when required.
When they're walking a game against professional car mechanics the penalties don't come. When they need them its a foregone conclusion. Keep betting on it.

Big jig might think not a lot between the players in div one but one thing for sure the refs are still the same class eh a late pen for the dark side

On the subject of referees, after what i witnessed at celtic park last w/end by Bobby Madden, (can only describe his performance as total incompetence) i couldn't believe he has been given one of the league cup semi-finals.Was no one from the powers that be watching that performance, if they were then its time they had a good look at themselves. Sorry its scotland silly me.jimbhoy

Agree0 Disagree0

Their former sacked colleague is back as a senior coach. I'm sure he's happy with ref performances.

I'm not one for believing any rumour I hear until the guy is in the paper inside parkhead with a jersey and a scarf. However since last January transfer window this place changed my life and turned me into a need to know updates now kinda guy. Please can we get a list of actual known targets likely to be signed if any? Do u think there will be any more? Are we best waiting for summer?

Believable0 Unbelievable0

From what I can gather Andy, any player who has had a decent run of goal scoring form in the Scottish Premiership is a target.

That seems to be the jist of it.

Agree0 Disagree0

Yeah seems that way but again I can't believe it until the guy's face is seen in a jersey. I'm sick of being lied to. Anyway I'm going for my Saturday bottle of wine. Enough of these lies. :-)

hi ed you think celtic will sign 2 players before the january transfer shuts

Believable0 Unbelievable0

{Ed007's Note - I'd be surprised if they do.}

I'd be delighted if we sign one - as long as it is a quality addition.
If we don't sign anyone and fail to qualify for the CL - 'I predict a riot' will be my new ring-tone.

JJ

Agree0 Disagree0

Its almost as if someone or something is deliberately ensuring or trying to ensure we don't qualify for the CL this time. Oops its that crazy conspiracy theorist Sopotcelt again!Sopotcelt.

foster efe, vvd, mulgrew. fisher, brown, biton, commons, izzy. balde, stokes. Henderson, pukki, johanson, forest, derk, fridge, fraser my preferred lineup for sunday will never happen of course, but have just been shown how to do these list type layouts by my cousins wean hence putting this team up,,,,, deep river bhoy,,, never taught me well enough the wee fud how do I keep the last word on the same line as the rest of the sentence???

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Definitely never taught me well enough (it didn't show as a list /formation as I tried) or maybe i'm just a computer illiterate fud and pressed a wrong button. in my defence when I was at school (74-78 ) the only computers I saw where on star trek, I was feeling pleased with myself too,,,, deep river bhoy

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed007's Note - I find if you are putting a team in formation use ------ to keep it looking right. Was this what you meant?

-----------------Forster-------------
-------Ambrose--van Dijk--Mulgrew---
---------------------------------------
Fisher---Brown---Biton---Commons--Izaguirre
----------------------------------------
-------------Balde---Stokes------

Yes,,,, deep river bhoy

DRB It's not going to happen mate . NL will play one man up top as he wants to keep this unbeaten record going in his quest to be the first manager to go through the. League unbeaten . I fear for the likes of Rogic, Watt, Atajic, Irvine and Mcgregor as I can't really remember players who've went out on loan then come back and are successful and as much as I've got nothing against Morton I wouldn't even consider helping Shiels out with my worst enemy . Only last season our best performance in the league was against ICT when we blooded youngsters and tore them apart . Our signing targets don't exactly fill me excitement either although there's still a week to go . C'mon Neil be a devil and play big Amido or young Henderson before we have no young prospects left .

Hiya. I check this a lot. Like the banter. Just signed up. Hiya! Question not rumour - Is Jermaine Pennant worth a punt d'ye reckon? Do you think at 31 he could maybe knuckle down? In Glesga? He seems to have that working class hero syndrome thing. Came from a poor background etc. Do you think he could be a good signing? Do you not think Glasgow (and Celtic Park's atmosphere) might do him justice. He's been a bit of a d*ck his whole life. But he's on a free and there's not many clubs after him; wages wise I think he's possible. Personally? I'd be glad if Celtic sniffed around at least.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Please no no no, another Freddie lungburg(wrong spelling I think)
pointless signing.

Did he not leave a Ferrari or such like at the club he was at in spain and forget about having left it there, too much money!

Would rather just stick with Forrest, he's not going to be wanting 30 odd grand a week

Agree0 Disagree0

Would've liked to know what player we were after that nl said talks broke down, seeing how he was a top of the list player to know what kind/quality player we tried for
