Another stupid message on frimpongs social media post. ( I dreamed the dream blah blah you wil see. Does he not under stand if he does not get the big move which is huge and an overly amount of money gd for him. If it falls through your not welcome imo as you want to leave when we need all hands on deck and fight for everything (oh my days) are gone,

Most players in their career want to leave and try something different I don't blame him for having ambition I wish him the best of luck. And I don't blame any other player for wanting a move. Not because Lennon is manager or how the club is run just now But we all have to except that there are far better leagues than ours far more teams willing to pay a lot more money what ever the reason I wish them luck.

Don't blame him for wanting out.

I’ve absolutely no problems with frimpong leaving, the money being mentioned if true is great business for Celtic. I don’t think the lad was a good RB and his final cross in the main was dreadful, but he is raw and has a lot to learn. Obviously lennon wanted to keep him so I can u sweat and Lennons frustration to a degree as Celtic gave the boy a chance and after 16 months he walks away? On the other hand I feel it’s just symptomatic of how things are at the club right now and I do believe these players want out and lennon is a huge factor in that.

Agree0 Disagree0

27 Jan 2021 07:29:32
I think Frimpong is making the right decision, he has struggled this season and we haven't exactly improved our squad tempting him to stay.
He like most have had a poor season, and I'm sure the lure of playing in the Bundesliga, and probably tripling his wages, was simply too much to turn down. They have good players and ambition, unlike us at the moment.
The price tag is inflated but a great piece of business for us. that's the boards bonus sorted, probably Nick Hammond will get a pay rise, and NL will likely keep his job, and if we are lucky we might get a player on loan 😂🤣.

Agree0 Disagree0

27 Jan 2021 07:34:25
All hands on deck to fight for what? A Scottish Cup that might well get binned any day now? Frimpong has no allegiance to Celtic. He doesn't owe us anything. He got his move here off the back of his own talent and potential which is also what's earned him his move to one of the top teams in one of the world's top leagues. I wish him success and look forward to seeing how we adapt and replace him.

Agree0 Disagree0

27 Jan 2021 08:24:53
It's the Celtic business model so why does Lenny talk about being let down by Frimpong, every young player we buy is there to be sold on for a profit, talk about being a disconnect at the club!

Agree2 Disagree0

26 Jan 2021 21:22:39
i don't see how its surprise to some supporters lennon saying today more players want away he told us in the summer this was and got hounded for it the mistake was not getting them out in the summer.

You’re right liam, he should have named, shamed and sold in August/ sept, I’m sure there was more than the 4 regulars.

26 Jan 2021 23:44:08
I agree with you in hindsight but can u imagine the situation we’re in now but with some top players from last season sold. There would be protests, fence flinging and the likes 😂😂😂.

I'm thinking his agent has set up a cracking contract conditions for all parties. His highlight reel would involve. running. running. getting lost. running. Not a bad player. but £10mill is too good for us. Now who will we waste it on.

26 Jan 2021 20:23:28
All the best all yir days Frimpong.

26 Jan 2021 21:04:34
I’m really disappointed he’s gone, I thought he’d have a promising future with us. Obviously hasn’t worked out unfortunately. £11 Million transfer but 30% to man city.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Jan 2021 22:02:22
I am disappointed as well that he has gone, i think he is a real talent, that just needs to be used and developed in the right way, his future might not be at right back, but whatever position he ends up playing I am sure he will have a good career in the game, its a pity it's not going to be with us.

Fifer, you beat me to it. Was just looking at results and Shved has scored the winner in that game tonight. Begs the question, do Shved, Bayo and Hendry deserve another crack with Celtic or do folk think their time is over?!

I'd agree with that Liam, his attitude has been poor but he's a young guy.

I think under Lennon it’s over for them but IF we get a new manager then he’d be daft not to look at all his options.

The way it's going these guys may be all that's left.

26 Jan 2021 20:26:28
Think hendry has a clause in his loan that means he will be gone. Bayo not for me. Shved is a talent.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Jan 2021 20:54:28
Fifer this is the thing I’m not sure of if they’ve an option to buy but as the parent club surely we retain the option to say naw you’re no buying?

26 Jan 2021 21:06:46
Shved scored the winner.

26 Jan 2021 22:34:51
I think the option to buy thing is just a pre arranged fee so it’s just a matter of dotting the i’s type situation.

Shocking response from Neil Lennon at press conference when asked by a fan if he could understand why supporters are calling for change to which he reportedly responded after a significant pause 'No. '

Neill might not agree-we're all entitled to an opinion. But the fact he doesn't 'understand' beggars belief and is concerning.

Either delusional or toeing the Pravda political party line.

Believable1 Unbelievable0

26 Jan 2021 17:54:48
I agree with you JFP But I think its more concerning that the board are doing nothing about it. They are fans also they must have feelings for the club they must see the results have been farcical the decision making on the pitch as equally farcical yet the sound of silence and non action from the board is really a joke now. And now according to Lennon we are looking at 2 players coming in does not look like he is going anywhere soon.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Jan 2021 18:04:01
The bad attitude has been rife from players, management team and Board since the start of the season since we started to falter.
I am disgusted with the way the support has been let down and I suspect NL is still a tad miffed at the protest after Ross County?

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Jan 2021 18:25:57
Wonder what the boards take on the fans opinions come the season ticket renewals? Wonder if they’ll have the same contempt for the fans then as they do now.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Jan 2021 19:07:19
Difficult to understand why the angry, disrespectful attitude to the fans continues and is allowed to continue
Whatever happened to the customer is always right, might not agree with what is being said but a little empathy would help the fans who are struggling through the C.V. crisis with their only contact to normality going down the tubes and the guy mostly responsible doesn’t understand why people are upset
Beggars belief.

26 Jan 2021 20:44:12
If he's a Celtic "fan" he'd be saying the exact same as everyone else if he was on the outside looking in.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Jan 2021 17:03:52
Was Lennon wearing an ear piece during that interview?

Pretty sure he was asked if others had asked to leave and answered yes.

Later in the interview he states it was the summer that others asked to leave.

Its totally contradictive stuff here. Frimpong won't sign a new deal and asks to leave so he is sold.

Other have asked to leave and are kept.

Edouard clearly has no intention of signing a new deal, same with Ajer, Christie and Ntcham. Why are they not being sold like Frimpong?

Believable0 Unbelievable0

26 Jan 2021 17:22:01
Has anyone made an offer for them?

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Jan 2021 19:14:15
He did contradict himself and yes, need a buyer before being sold.
Looks like they are trying to patch things up for the rest of the season.
As there has been very little from the board I wouldn’t be surprised if the team did a good run from now one NL will be kept with maybe a DOF.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Jan 2021 20:18:06
I don't think players would ask to leave unless there was another club expressed interest through their agents.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Jan 2021 15:36:58
If this move has been in the works then why was frimpong still being selected for squads?

Believable2 Unbelievable0

26 Jan 2021 16:01:05
A good question Kev but to be fair, the same could be asked of several players NL has continued to select.

Agree2 Disagree0

26 Jan 2021 16:27:22
The unrest and discontent was revealed as far back as August 2020, but may have spread through the squad including the development guys.
Possibly a reflection on the manager and his methods, or just simply a reality check on the SPL and our deterioration in Europe?
I remember back in the late 80's we had a mass exodus, including Brian McClair, Alan McInally and Judas Johnston and this could be a similar water-shed - hopefully with better players coming in?

Agree1 Disagree0

26 Jan 2021 16:28:22
Probably that many players wanting to go that you can’t make a squad with the ones that want to stay.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Jan 2021 16:44:50
Apparently young Karamoko Dembele is wanting away.

Agree1 Disagree0

26 Jan 2021 16:47:58
OAB2. Loved mc Clair. Wit a player. I think it's bit of a result frimpong going if that's the fee (11.5) his defensive abilities very poor and has been stated final ball shocking. He never a right back Caught out positionally too easily IMO Taylor never going to cut it either . Laxalt for me not a left back. Positionally weak also. Possibly left midfield? What i would give for a malby valgaaren type on either flank. Added to Duffys shenanigans and aajer not turning up for 4 months (I'd sell him too ) Is it any wonder we have been leaking goals.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Jan 2021 16:50:33
For me the more pertinent question is why has it got to the stage that so many want out at the same time? Obviously players move on we all get that but is it me it is it too coincidental so many want out at the same time? I’ve said before on here along with many others, what a job the manager has next season building a team up. How from absolute sheer dominance to where we will be sitting come this summer has been allowed to happen is beyond belief. Of course every window more so summer we should be looking to new signings but for us to be practically looking to build a whole new starting 11 next season with the exception of one or two is unbelievable.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Jan 2021 17:01:16
Just seen lennon saying two signings on the way so its sooty and sweep on loan. my faith in him has diminished.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Jan 2021 19:21:26
Seen it at work before everyone settled then one guy goes for a bit more money, before long it’s 2/ 3/ 4 etc
These guys talk and will bitch to each other
The bus issue with fans won’t have helped either, nobody wants that for just going to their work.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Jan 2021 20:52:51
If Elhamed was fit why hasn't he been playing over Frimpong? He's a much better RB especially if Frimpong been making it clear he doesn't want to be here. Brought in as one for the future to go in to the development squad he ended up a first team regular pretty quickly and he's wanting out a season and a bit later. Something isn't right behind the scenes.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Jan 2021 15:30:51
Just listened to Lennons interview with The Cynic. He asked him about the huge discontent with the support being out of the title race at this point in a monumental season. Can you understand why the fans are demanding huge changes to the football club? A short pause them Lennon says NO! Then comes out with what we have won over 9 years. The management team and Board are on a different planet from the fans. Trying to live holding into the past. That answer NO had me scunnerd. Just roll up and give us your cash in a few weeks for renewals.

Listen mate, desmond had better have a monumental plan up his sleeve going forward. Business man like he is, he surely must know nothing short of a box office name as manager with big plans will do. How can lawwell desmond etc expect fans to go into their pockets again come the summer and fork out on season tickets for let’s be honest the possibility of not getting inside the ground for most if not all of next season again, that on top of this disaster of a season. Lennon ( and I can’t say I’m surprised) said beginning of this window “ we need a CB to cover for jullien”. Now it’s the 26th of January, over 3 weeks into this window and as yet nothing, then today we’ve got frimpong off and young dembele refusing a new contract? I’m all for players going if that’s what they want but my god this on top of this disaster of a season, and Lennons still there?

Agree2 Disagree0

26 Jan 2021 15:59:23
He also said a few others want to go.

If these players want to leave fine no player is bigger than the club Celtic will still go on we ruin a dip right now but we will be back it may take a year or two depending on who they bring in as manager, only thing is what have the fans got to put up with till it does happen.

Michael how bad is his final ball? Jeezo looking back, did we notice how bad frimpong crossing was last season or did we not notice it because forrest was providing action from right flank?

Its as if he bullets down wing and forgets what to do.

26 Jan 2021 15:36:27
Phil i noticed it straight away. Got pelters on the game chat for saying he was on of the most ineffective players in the team. Flatters to deceive big time. Laxalt the exact same.

Seen the rumours that Frimpong is away for 10mill. People saying if coached better he will go onto be a "baller"? In my experience of playing football if you can't cross a ball or even have any forum of decent defending or awareness by the age of 20 i don't think its looking good? people are not going to tell me that you still need time to learn they basics at the age of 20. Like a few have said on here, Does he need a lift? And also With Eddy looking like it is possible he may be away it won't make any difference for players coming in. No Money will be spent until a new Manager and coaching staff are in place. No chance Lennon will get £££. Just my opinion. Hope everyone is well. HH.

26 Jan 2021 18:00:52
Kev T2 how can you judge the youth players on the amount of time they have had in limited appearances and the pressure on them playing with seasoned pros who who appeared to have downed tools. Very harsh criticism on young players.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Jan 2021 18:32:48
Funny it’s harsh on the young Scots but your all slating Frimpong saying he can’t do the basics

All I said was you’d be better punting them all then if they can’t do the basics by age 20 as per the post above

Coaching makes players better regardless of age - our coaching staff are rotten and is shown in the collapse from champions to fighting for 2nd place.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Jan 2021 20:25:59
Kev I never mentioned Frimpong, I was saying when things are not going well during a game it’s a big ask to put youngsters on to try and salvage something from a game with 10/ 15 minutes left then you don’t see them again for a couple of months.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Jan 2021 14:27:47
Well nobody saw that coming frimpong off.
I'm Shocked him and ajer whete starting to work great. much to late tho as he was never a defender why do Celtic play players out of position constantly.
Are we Gona have a clear out lads. We have bought no better players than the ones we have so zero progress.
Dumbelle leaving
On the season for us to get 10 it's the worst it's been if the board really wanted 10 this would never have happened self destruct mode.
Who else is leaving are the Celtic board going to have a fire sale before they chuck and take as much as they can as this is how it feel to me all players brought in for the ten in a row cheap options so tons off money saved. Are the board going to do a Celtic heist take everything they cam as well as every ascett and do a runner. Sounds like a gd plan maybe that's what they have been planning who knows but they are up to there necks in it.

Believable1 Unbelievable0

26 Jan 2021 14:58:09
I think it is very worrying what has been allowed to happen this season and I won't bore you all with the chronological calamities.
Seems the club have thrown it the towel weeks ago and the 9 points dropped in the last three games has all but put the tin hat on it.
So now what? We sell-off as many players as possible for profit and complete the season with what's left for pride and a cup?
Any cash brought in during this last week of the 'window' will ensure bonuses will be secure for the major share holders, when the accounts are audited and the bank manager is appeased.
Personally, I would have much preferred a huge shake-up after the Sevco game and subsequent Dubai disaster showing a statement of intent and proper preparation for next season.
However, I suppose we now wait until the summer and hope lessons have been learned and amends will be made for gross mismanagement.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Jan 2021 15:02:03

Just reading that Livingston manager Martindale has passed the SFA fit and proper criteria. In Neil Lennon's much criticised interview last week he accused the SFA of hypocrisy he was correct. Martindale was convicted of drug trafficking, Dave King convicted on 44 charges of tax evasion both passed the fit and proper criteria, Craig White cleared of all charges and was deemed not to fit the criteria and banned from any future roles in Scottish football, Michael Gardyne cleared of any wrongdoing due to insufficient evidence yet Alexander Tonev gets an eleven match ban when there was no clear evidence of what he was alleged to have said to Aberdeen player Logan. Neil Lennon you are 100% correct.

Believable2 Unbelievable0

26 Jan 2021 14:27:13
Paul Murray also passed the SFA fit and proper test.
He was a director of Rangers FC when they entered Liquidation.
That should’ve meant a 5 year ban from being a director of another football club.
Yet he was a director of Sevco Scotland FC.
Another example of the SFA not implementing their own rules.

mate we will pull in a good amount of money in transfer fees with players leaving. strong manger and nice war chest and its business as usual.

Our players are all trying to drive moves out of our club. You can look at that as a positive if u want but its just simply not.

Correct ui get the money and use it wisely would rather buy 3 or 4 class players than our usual 8 average . And I've no idea how they haven't pulled the trigger on lenny it's baffling. maybe they tbink we'll win the league and the league cup. ooops.

If the transfer goes through, I wish wee Frimpong all the best.
He has the potential to be a top class International player, with good coaching and experience.

dk that's just how it is these days. we will only keep players for 2 or 3 seasons then will look for a big money move. takes a very loyal humble and happy player to stay these days who understands what its like to play for a club like celtic and is no swayed by the big bucks and hyped up pub league.

Players will come and go. We are a selling club and he is another example of us getting it right. Time to find the next one. The boy from Man U, O'Connor? came with a reputation. Anyone know what's happening with him?

I understand that however he has only been in the side about 1 year and lennon is saying he's been wanting to leave for some time. Its worrying. We all know there is a few others who also want to leave. What are we going to be left with next season.

I don't see this as a positive in anyway other than its a decent enough fee however with no champions league footy next year (probably) we will likely not re-invest more than 1 or 2 million of this in the squad.

Is this the start off a mass exodus from paradise. the wrong person is leaving. if we can't keep a hold off players what manager is going to come if it costs money to rebuild.

Agree1 Disagree0

26 Jan 2021 15:14:36
Players have ambitions beyond the Tony macaroni. He is going to the club currently 3rd in the Bundesliga. I would think it was worrying if the young foreign players didn't have ambition. We are what we are- a stepping stone to the money leagues.

From all accounts from pole asked away, possibly touted around by his agent
A bit concerned that others won’t come if they feel players don’t want to stay if they have a choice elsewhere.

He will be the first of many in next wee while, seemingly dembele won't sign on again either. We will need a complete new team by summer, that's manager and chief exec too.

Anyone think players want to leave because of our management team style of play and training methods.

Having fans with short memories turning on them viciously doesn’t exactly encourage players to stay.

It's quite worrying when the manager if a second division French team says that's bayo just fit after arriving in poor condition. get a move on Celtic this stalling is doing No one any favours.

Believable5 Unbelievable0

It's even more worrying how ALL the players fitness levels will fall even further after another five months of this management team.

Agree2 Disagree0

26 Jan 2021 11:10:22
Good shout lads, personal fitness inc diet, lifestyle etc should first be the responsibility of any professional athlete.

Having said that, the football club should undoubtedly, in the 21st Century, have fitness standards that the players should be achieving/ working at which should be supported by diet, training, testing etc

This has been standard in France, Spain, Italy etc since the 50's/ 60's.

For Celtic to have players that are unfit (LG is a good example earlier in the season) due to them not working at the correct level, is unacceptable.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Jan 2021 12:00:47
Its clear to see that its a major issue under Lennon. Didn't delia say that when he came in. Look at the team are gone after 60 to 65 mins in games. Plus ajeti still not fit and griffs just fit. Just not good enough and also a major cause for a lot of injuries.

Rogers noted the other night how fit his Leicester team is, and how many late goals they score. We used to be like that, absolute opposite now. It's the first thing a new manager will say, guaranteed. I do continue to wonder what the board are actually looking at and seeing.
