Use our rumours form to send us celtic transfer rumours.
26 Oct 2020 20:57:43
All these rumours who knows what's true. One thing's for sure if there is anything in it the press won't be long in getting a hold of it.
But I'm any case, something isn't right within the walls of Celtic Park and Lennoxtown.
I wouldn't be surprised if it's Lennon, the coaching, tactics. 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔.

Does anyone think no Celtic fan other than Lawrie from Dennistoun should phone Clyde SSB. he only phones so he can listen later on a loop and marvel at his unorthodox unparalleled succinct use of succulent big words. seriously they hate us, always have and always will, Celtic are the most criticised club by far on the show, they routinely rubbish our players especially if the are foreign, they would have no show if it was only sevconuts that phoned although they would probably start using actors.
26 Oct 2020 18:50:55
Dont agree . it is not that biased
Equally, seems to be same celtic fans calling in however.
26 Oct 2020 19:53:32
Do what i do don't listen.
26 Oct 2020 21:35:03
Stopped listening to it a long long time ago can’t understand why fans bother with it.
26 Oct 2020 21:45:58
He has an opinion that's it the guys a fantasist his scripted bull is not what we want to hear he was begging for a season ticket few years back while saying he's a frequent visitor to see his son in LA. I don't know him but I know the CA Fremont CFC from Frisco to LA there's no Denny Bhoys that know him I'm sure Dom good coach he is will confirm HH.
{Ed007's Note - I'm not 100% sure what you're on about there buddy - no offence meant - but even when I did listen years ago I was convinced "Lawrie" was reading a script or prepared prose. I've never understood why Celtic supporters listen to it just to moan about the content - it is what it is - and even me and my dad argued over him listening to their pish for years. I used to accuse him of being Lawrie!}

There's always friends in journalism and I feel those two should have been outed many years ago. Anyone who can get Laurie's son in touch with me anytime this century I'll be impressed.
27 Oct 2020 10:52:16
The show is a joke now, I used to enjoy it but it's just sevco phone in and the wee idiot Gordon Duncan pretending he's not a sevco fan is embarrassing. Constantly bringing our club and players down but any Celtic fan making a valid point gets shut down or accused of being obsessed. So many times I want to call Gordon Duncan out on his one sided approach but fear I would just make an arse of myself on radio . Wish someone would call him out for what he is and what he's trying to do .
26 Oct 2020 18:24:27
Celtic have published our audited accounts today.
Surprisingly they are not as bad as I feared.
I think from what I read they broke even to June 2020.
The KT sale was ÂŁ24 million but we also paid ÂŁ20 million on new players.
The Celtic supporters definitely stood up when it was most needed with record season ticket sales.
Maybe that’s something the players should copy when they take to the field.
26 Oct 2020 18:35:41
If we’re just breaking even-who’s funding the liquidated loyal?
26 Oct 2020 18:54:27
JFP . does it mater? Someone who wants to stop the 10? .
The players should be reminded that we are PAYING and GENERATING record levels of revenue for their benefit
No cold Turkey for our very wealthy " stars "
The wantaway players should be chased away but of course we probably can't as they are " assets " even when they aren't committed
terrible state of affairs.
26 Oct 2020 19:54:43
We went from 11mill profit to 100.000 grand but not surprising in these times.
26 Oct 2020 19:43:59
Laxalt looked like the only player that gives 100%.
26 Oct 2020 19:57:05
Lubomir. I think we should be looking at why our players are wanting away. I know that obviously there is a lot of money to be made elsewhere but that is the case at most clubs and there doesn't seem to be as much unrest.
Over at Sevco Ryan Kent was linked with a big money move to Leeds, it never materialised but he seems to be just getting on with it and doesn't appear to be too unsettled.
Our players don't look to me as if they are enjoying their football, even the manager just sits there when we score a goal, the last time he was in charge he used to run up and down the line and show some passion.
Whatever or whoever is causing trouble behind the scenes need to be sorted out, there needs to be some confidence and belief instilled in the team.
26 Oct 2020 21:25:26
Cant disagree gerry
I hope that there is enough food players who want to stay and want to play
Equally, players that want to go, may well yet up their game and be convinced ( by lennon, coaches and lawell) that there exit will arrive a little quicker if they can push on again. a quid pro quo . that's the hope gerry
You are right though, over govan way they are more settled but I think that's because their team has very few players who think the club they play for is beneath them.
I don't quite know the answer to that.
26 Oct 2020 22:43:14
Griff must start pud the wee man gives a hundred percent every time. I think it’s unfair on Mgregor to say that wee man runs himself into the ground . Ajer needs to start driving at teams More as they don’t know what to do when he does .
26 Oct 2020 18:19:42
It's starting to make sense why we had to bring in a psychologist to talk to the players. That wasn't yesterday so it's obvious that issues have been ongoing for quite some time. Probably about the same time as our players were playing rubbish. Funny that, isn't it? If only football clubs had the power to tell players that they wouldn't get paid if they didn't show a bit of effort. It happens in any other job. HH.

26 Oct 2020 13:55:42
Hey all, looking from the outside in all doesn't look well withing Celtic Park.
Yes I know that's a bit of an obvious statement.
But we've went from free flowing blowing teams away 352 formation. To let's face it not being able to kick our own arses. We don't become a bad team in the space of 3 months.
Where's the hunting in packs to get the ball back mentality gone? We seem devoid of ideas on the park and no creative spark.
If I'm honest I don't like the set up of the coaching staff. Lennon has his limitations, maybe they are getting found out again. I don't think Kennedy bis ever an assistant manager. I don't know enough about Strachan but by all accounts has a decent reputation down south.
I just looking at the coaching staff and think, we're Celtic we should have so much better.
26 Oct 2020 16:28:03
Some would say that in a backwater league but with world renowned reputation and high profile, we can make up for the deficit by having a top class coaching cohort and sports science department to create a conveyor belt of hungry, fit, youthful talent where opportunities are plentiful . we want domestic dominance and european relative success.
A tough balance.
26 Oct 2020 13:08:34

26 Oct 2020 12:13:44
I think opinion is very divided on here regarding Neil Lennon, let's be as fair as possible and list some of the pros in his favour and the cons against.
Lennon CANNOT be blamed for our long injury list or our international players catching CV, he also cannot be blamed for players recent poor form including some of our recent signings. He will be hurting as much as us fans as he is Celtic through and through, he stepped in last season when we needed him and steadied the ship.
What we CAN blame the manager for is poor team set up, making same mistakes over and over again, playing players out of position and being poor/ naive tactically. Lennon also can be blamed for team's apparent lack of fitness, it is obvious to most fans that the players fitness levels have dropped since Rodgers left.
Everyone here could add more on both sides of this argument, but the main thing is, do Celtic and us the fans, stick with Lennon in the hope he comes good, or do we simply say Lennon's time is over and get a better tactically aware modern european coach.
In lookng at everything we must also aportion blame at the feet of Lawwell whose penny penching attitude has cost us Champions League qualification in 2 or more seasons ie McGinn and Toney and I am certain he could have done more to resign big Fraser also.
Also our absentee landlord over in Ireland who should be more pro active or sell his shares to a more interested party.
Let's hear everyone else's views.
26 Oct 2020 12:20:49
He's made mistakes with chopping and changing teams and there's no flow to our play plus every set piece is pumped into Duffy so the opposition are onto that. but he can't be blamed for moi missing a sitter against sevco or Duffy making a howler yesterday yes he picks them but they are all international players who are going through a rough patch.
26 Oct 2020 12:22:15
Get behind the team, a lot of misinformation, faux journalism. Never been his biggest fan for purely personal reasons. However, it's a big pressure season for us. If we don't win the mythical 10 in a row I won't be jumping off a bridge. But he has been a great player in our time. Like every company in the world the board makes the decisions. Some bad decisions made there. But with faith, anything is possible.
26 Oct 2020 12:25:32
All the cons you listed are the reason for the players poor formđź‘Ť.
26 Oct 2020 12:40:12
You can expect and even excuse form lapses or even mistakes (not as repetitive as we are unfortunately seeing) ; but there's no room for unfit, unprepared or disruptive players at Celtic.
The standards set at the club are legendary - Attacking, slick, entertaining football, flair players, team spirit and will to win, fighting qualities and even late goals.
The recruitment has been well below-par for a team supposedly going for a tenth consecutive title, a quadruple treble and building on a good EL campaign where we topped a very difficult (CL quality) group. Especially when your rivals are improving.
However, we have to use the players available and man-for-man we should be a lot better than we are at the minute.
Injuries and absences will subside, but the lacklustre body language and lack of direction and motivation from the management team was there before this difficult week and personally, I feel this pressure is doing NL potential harm and maybe all concerned would benefit from a change?
26 Oct 2020 12:46:13
I feared the worse when Lenny had his meltdown after our CL defeat.
That was unexceptionable behaviour because there is the danger the players will stop giving 100%. If that’s the case then he has to go.
Despite conceding a late equaliser yesterday, I actually felt worse at half time.
I was disappointed with the first half performance and felt the players weren’t playing for the manager.
I was gutted at half time because I thought his time was up.
But then the players gave everything in the second half and that will give Lenny more time to turn things around.
26 Oct 2020 13:07:59
You can expect or even excuse lapses in form, mistakes (as long as they're not serial repeats) and allow for injuries.
However, there's no room for unfit, disruptive, unprepared and half-hearted players in any Celtic team.
The standards set at the club are legendary:- Attacking, slick football, flair players, good team spirit, a winning mentality and a fighting attitude with even a reputation for late winners.
The recruitment - in my opinion - hasn't reflected the ambition of a club going for ten-in-a-row, a quadruple treble and building on an impressive EL, topping a very difficult group last term.
Unfortunately, I can see things taking their toll on NL already with lacklustre body language, no motivation or reaction and some of his decisions on selection and subs has caused great debate.
If I'm honest - and I know about these things - NL needs to look after his health first and foremost as the stress is constant in his job normally, without all the additional pressure building that has built-up since the CL exit - right to the Sevco defeat. Maybe a change would be the best thing for all concerned?
26 Oct 2020 13:11:06
Its true Lenny is as much a Celtic fan than the rest of us Its true he can't be blamed for individual mistakes and true he can't be blamed for C.V. issues. But what I think he can be blamed for is team selection team fitness playing players out of position the Cluj game the one off game for qualifying for the CL ( one off game without a striker) against not a Barcelona or AC Milan the really bad performances against Sevco recently the bad formation choices against other teams and if this question was asked 3 months from now I would add losing 10iar IMO we have far better players than any other team in the league we should be at least 5 points clear with a game in hand but we are not.
26 Oct 2020 13:16:30
There is more to this
This is not a happy camp and it is not all of NLs making.
26 Oct 2020 13:19:36
Also
Duffy wants to be here
He may be error prone, and he may deserve to be dropped for errors, but he WANTS to be here
Others meanwhile. do not and when deep seated resentment builds ( ie I don't want to be here ( dummies out) and so why am I still here ) , the fitness and standards drop
Check out Bayern Munich youtube . Fitness videos and what they did to countenance the effects of lock down . different world. world class. makes us look like an under 12s team . pampered spoiled brats that wouldn't know how to spell the word " professional "
26 Oct 2020 13:30:15
Buzz bomb, you say the players gave everything 2nd half . really? . watch players when we don't have the ball. watch players and the efforts they make to make it easier on the colleague
You talk a lot of sense . but players giving everything? .
I'm. sorry but I can't agree.
26 Oct 2020 13:42:27
I get players might not get along with lenny or have had a falling out, but to not give effort because of this is letting the fans down more than lenny, he will go and get a job somewhere else but its us who will be let down by the players. Regardless of what they think about a manager they should want to win games at all costs especially more so of they don't want to be here perform great get yourself in the shop window and go. As for fitness there can be no excuse why our players should be lacking anything like that, as professionals surely they want to be the best and they should be taking care of themselves regarding fitness. Abit of self pride, why be a great player but not as fit as someone inferior player wise. I don't get why a player thinks if they don't play well and don't keep in top shape that they will get the move they want, I think mistakes have been made by all, im positive it will all come good and we will go on a run soon.
26 Oct 2020 13:44:07
Lubo
I just thought there was a massive improvement in effort from the first half.
If the players aren’t giving 100% for Lenny then he has to go.
I’m not convinced the players have downed tools.
I think it’s a combination of cons that Tim mentioned.
26 Oct 2020 13:53:03
At the end of the day lads Lennon might want the best for Celtic we all know that. But clearly there are players who don't care. If a professional player can't keep themselves fit during these times with the wages they get paid then something is wrong. There are unfortunately more issue then guys not bring fit.
26 Oct 2020 15:13:57
Buzz and ter
I agree that when things are not right in a KEY season with transfer window closed, the only permissible change is the manager
HOWEVER
Player power is a fact
Not all players have downed tools
Many have
Many want to go and money won't solve it
Many want to go because they are either bored or think they can and should be playing at a higher level
Make no mistake, when players aren't " at it " it can be catastrophic
Yes players can and will still score and execute assists BUT a player " not at it" ( in our case its plural) this can be CATASTROPHIC in terms of a league challenge
These players know who they are
These things can happen, and a good analogy would be a Bush fire . a wee flame can suddenly engulf
We are engulfed by discontent. there are reliable sources having conversations who are saying this out loud
Dont be fooled by players having their hands on their heads or " yaaaaaaassssss (ing) " when a goal is scored. that's a bluff
Look for the level of commitment when the ball needs won back, or that selfless run that opens it up for someone else . or the chase back to stop the opponent picking an easy pass
We are not at it
Players are treating our manager and the fans with utter contempt
This is all but impossible to turn around
I will be siging off in terms of this narrative as my head is now turned based on others assertions .
We are in the mire and NL being chopped, whilst understandable, may not solve our short term malaise
We need a new identify
We need a new philosophy
We need a new personality
And for me none of it is possible until we move on
Eddy
Ntcham
Ajer
Christie
Jullien
Our highest value assets want out when we needed their respect and commitment and desire
Beyond that we need players that want to be here and who want to give us 3 good years at least. this 6 good games and I'm outta here needs to stop
I'm devastated to be writing this to be quite honest.
26 Oct 2020 16:03:02
Lubo
I was thinking maybe those 5 players who have between 7 and 12 years still to play as a professional footballer feel they aren’t being developed properly under the current regime and that’s the reason they’re wanting out.
I could forgive them for that any other season.
But they know how much this season means to everyone connected to the club,
Why wouldn’t they want to stay and be part of Celtic history.
Is it so bad to work there that they didn’t want to stay for another 9 months.
26 Oct 2020 16:15:37
I agree 100%
Anyone not playing for the Jersey should be removed from the squad instantly, I said the same after the Rangers game.
By playing players that want to play for the Jersey only then can we move on from this, NL has to have the balls to do this or move aside.
For me these are our only options to have any chance of getting the 10.
26 Oct 2020 16:20:15
You think eddy cares about 10? Come on buzz.
Christie and Ajer think they're better than tierney .
Ntcham would sign for a French rugby team if it meant Back to france, plus Jullien
The perfect storm. when we needed so much more.
How do we fix it?

26 Oct 2020 19:41:57
There us no chance he will be sacked. Yes his choice of players and tactics can leave you scratching your head at times. Having a calm demeanor doesn't mean he doesn't care. Forster made it perfectly clear he didn't want to stay. Who would you want as a manager? If a player isn't fit that's down to each individual. The bottom line is we are all hurting but keep the Faith as we will come good.
26 Oct 2020 00:16:21
Ed, what is the official hand ball foul rule? I'm confused today because at least twice we were penalized when the ball double hit the body to the natural hand level? So ball hand contact is an official foul oversees unintentionally contact?
{Ed007's Note - It confuses me as well buddy. Have a read at THIS.}
26 Oct 2020 12:26:14
I know I’m clutching at straws here but with a penalty kick being awarded in stoppage time and a goal celebration,
Should there not have been extra added time instead of blowing up early.
We were prevented from getting one last ball into a crowded box.
26 Oct 2020 12:43:54
The whole 'advantage' thing confused me before the last pen. Cosgrove had a point-blank unchallenged shot away. Is that not advantage enough or is it up to the ref? Can't complain about the result just not sure what more advantage could uave been had.
26 Oct 2020 12:54:24
Jim
Apparently the referees use a 2-3 second rule,
If a player can get an uncontested shot at goal and misses,
The referee can give a penalty for the earlier challenge.
If that’s the case then Collum has followed the rules correctly.
26 Oct 2020 14:31:34
Cheers Leon đź‘Ť.
26 Oct 2020 13:49:02
Thanks Ed, it seems it can be defined differently by an individual opinion!
{Ed007's Note - It's very confusing.}
26 Oct 2020 10:54:02
For me, with the players we have, we must revert back to the 4231 which won us everything and play our strongest 11.
GK - Bain. Better option than Barkas who has no presence about him, doesn't fill the goal and has had a few howlers against Sevco, Livi and Ferencvaros.
RB- Ajer/ Frimpong- Ajer was brought in as a CDM, he is never a defensive midfielder and he isn't a centre back either! For me his best performances in a Celtic shirt have came at RB. Frimpong is all legs so throw a dart between the two.
CB- Bitton. I'm fed up saying it but he is the best centre back at the club. There is no other centre back at the club anywhere near his level. You could keep your beers in his back pocket he is that cool, calm and composed. His distribution is also second to none.
CB- Elhamed. If we had a better option he'd be at RB no question.
LB. Laxalt. Good start. So far so good.
CDM - Brown. Every year we hear his legs are gone but yet every year he keeps lifting trophies.
CDM- Mcgregor. Real engine of the team. links up well and chips in with some crackers.
RAM- Forrest. Huge miss. Playing him on the left only upsets the balance of the team.
CAM- Rogic. By far the best playmaker at the club. As a No.10 there is no one at the club anywhere near his quality. He showed it yesterday and he showed it when he came on against St Johnstone and Milan. Christie and Ntcham couldn't lace his boots.
LAM- Edouard. A player of his ilk has to be in the team and this is the only position available for him. He played this positon well when he came on the 3-2 game against Sevco. Linking up well and scoring a beauty. There is no other alternatives to him for this position due to the lack of quality at the club.
ST. Griffiths. Who else? Oroved it time and time again. He also gives us a dead ball threat.
Players who have to go asap-
Christie- Too tippy tappy for me. Tries to be fancy. Awful delivery. Think he's a superstar when in realty he's a very poor player.
Ntcham- Very lazy, very poor.
Duffy- Probably the worst CB I've ever seen!
Ajer- Never understood his hype.
Jullien- Showed against Killie that he's too feart to be a CB.
Barkas- see above.
MOI- thank f@#k he's only on loan!
In January we must sign a top drawer CB as a priority.
# Lennon out.
26 Oct 2020 11:42:59
Thats the point I was trying to about the signings malky.
Your team only has one signing from the last 2 windows.
They have made literally no impact whatsoever.
Yes they might come good but it has to be sooner rather than later.
26 Oct 2020 12:00:38
Some good point malky. Definitely as we all know the defence is a real problem at the min. Bain deserves a chance now as l don't think there is much he can do against 2 pens but l thought he did ok yesterday. For me 3 of the back 4 are so bad. Frimpong is NOT and never will be a right back. He just can't defend simple. Duffy has been a huge disappointment all round and look out of his depth. Ajer has the odd good spell but also goes missing and is no where near physical for a CB. For me only laxalt has been good at the back.
We need fighters at the min for us and there are few of them on the pitch every time we play. How a guy like ntcham keeps starting l will never know. At the min we are carrying so many it's not funny.
26 Oct 2020 13:35:51
You had me malky up to eddy as a left mid/ left attack
You have taken an alleged 35m striker and made him an attacking left midfielder to make way for an unfit, unprofessional griffiths?
I sort of get it, but with a whole squad to choose from, even you found a square peg for a round hole!
Generally agree however with wider sentiment and back to front
Lol Bain as a 10iar keeper . scary stuff.
26 Oct 2020 19:25:07
Celtic are a better team with Griffiths on the park, that is a fact. The 3 5 2 formation worked because of Griffiths coming back into the fray, he made space for Eddy and scored goals. He also harassed and chased down lost causes which led to goals or chances and pushed the team further up the pitch. Many pundits are talking about how you need the right players for any formation and to make 3 5 2 work, we need Eddy and Griffiths at their best.
I know Griff let the team down in lockdown, he always seems to mess up in some way or other but we have to remember he is likely struggling with mental health again as are many people during this C.V. If he is fit, he'd be the second name on my team sheet every week. I wish we unleashed him against Sevco from the off last week, he wouldn't have missed the chance Moi did.
26 Oct 2020 22:25:28
Some really good points Malky.
Can't believe Griffiths is probably the only player who can take a free or corner kick, athough Eddy can hit a free kick.
Christie couldn't hit a decent dead ball if his life depended on it. Which begs the question; what do they practice at training?
26 Oct 2020 10:01:04
I didn't manage to catch all of the game yesterday but from what I did see it's more of the same defensively. What concerns me more than anything are the Lennon soundbites. I think they're stuck on repeat. "We'll improve" "We'll get better" "We lacked urgency". The question has to be when are these issues going to get sorted and how? I see he even dipped into the archives and had a go at the ref. I know he used to be a hothead to the point of embarrassment at times but he's gone completely the other way now and sits on the bench looking totally beaten. I want him to win the league more than anything but it's looking less likely by the day. It's only 3 points if we win our game in hand, of course, but I wouldn't bet on that the way we're playing. I'm hugely concerned but blindly hopeful.
26 Oct 2020 10:32:46
Agree, this blaming the ref for yesterday is embarrassing Kev. I know Scottish refs are bad but he never got much wrong yesterday apart from not sending McGregor off.
26 Oct 2020 11:04:24
Our equaliser was in the back if an bad Gollum decision foul to Aberdeen.
26 Oct 2020 12:06:09
Not sure when Lennon was going after the game either with the ref. How McGregor was not sent off for a series of fouls and then giving away the pen at the end too. Plus as has been said on here our second goal there was a clear push in the back on their player in the build up to our goal. Think he is simple trying to deflect away from himself and the team.
26 Oct 2020 17:28:39
On the subject of McGregor, the decline in his performances has been alarming. He flourished under BR but this season has looked more like the player he was under RD who a lot of our fans didn't even think would make it at Celtic. He took his goal brilliantly yesterday and has had good moments but if he ticks, we tick and he's been way off it this season. Most notably was against St Johnstone when Brown was left out. He looked completely lost without him at times.
26 Oct 2020 09:22:24
There is no doubt the environment we are currently playing in is having a huge effect on the way the season is panning out. TRIFC are thriving in the present climate and fair play to them, while we are struggling badly. Why is this?
IMO its glaringly obvious. Recent history shows that TRIFC have struggled badly when the pressure is on in front of a crowd. Hibs Scottish cup Final, last seasons collapse after the winter break, last seasons League cup final and various Semi Finals over the past few seasons are occasions their bottle has crashed under the expectations of the Klan. On the flip side Celtic have been thriving winning every trophy in front of full houses.
This pressure has been taken away this season and this makes it a totally different ball game. The proof is in the performances of Captain Courageous Tav. This man was made for playing in empty stadiums 🤣🤣
If playing in empty stadiums with no fan pressure continues for the rest of the season (which seems likely) I fear for the title this season.

Stevie, but its the same for all clubs. We can't hide behind that and try to use it as an excuse. HH.

As much as the fans help the team they also put the team under huge pressure. Can u imagine fans in Celtic park and travelling to away grounds having to watch the current rubbish. If they need fans in this season of all seasons then they shouldn't be out there. It's the same for both sides. They are playing well and we are playing rubbish.

I'm not making any excuses here besty and why would I. We all know what the script is in this climate. All I'm saying is TRIFC are adjusting better than us and the reason IMO is fan pressure during the 90 mins has been taken away.

I know Mikey Johnstone splits opinion on here but I have to say I'm a fan I think he has great potential and I love players that can go by a man there's not many left in the game. with him being out for a long time I was hoping he would do some upper body work and get himself stronger but going by his pictures from his training it doesn't look as though he's took advantage.

Still looks very small
I heard a while ago his attitude and in game intelligence has not improved. let's see how he lands visavis his return.
26 Oct 2020 09:52:55
Lubo I didn't realise his attitude wasn't on point that's something I've not heard before and don't like hearing.
26 Oct 2020 11:08:22
Who did you hear it from Lubo? A guy in the Bristol bar?

He’s a selfish individual who can’t see a pass, doesn’t play for the team, only interested in his own agenda, he needs to learn fast how to contribute to the team. It doesn’t surprise me with his attitude on the park that he’s offield attitude is being questioned. Big year for him if he gets back, needs to grow up, he’s not a child anymore.

I've watched the build up to their last penalty from yesterday and there's no way the Aberdeen winger is waltzing by Scott Brown if he's not one booking away from a suspension.
Scott getting all those needless bookings has come back to bite us.
26 Oct 2020 08:51:51
Aye Scott Brown getting booked is the reason we're single fish. The problem is Lennon, his woeful signings, his clueless tactics, playing players out of position and sticking with his favourites etc etc etc.

And you forgot
Inability to tackle properly
Inability to win personal battles
Poor in 2nd balls
Few 50 50 battles won
Poor passing
No cohesion
Limited evidence of teamwork from defence to middle to attack . watch rogic and Callum McGregor for inspiration ( but skip past Callum's tackling deficiencies)
We need a lift.
26 Oct 2020 09:55:03
That's true but also further up the park is the same. christies tackling is shocking and some want him playing deeper no thanks.
26 Oct 2020 12:16:50
Lads the fact is the Aberdeen lad went through a few players who made no attempt to tackle him. Sorry but the lad should have been levelled and a foul given at worst. Maybe buzz the fact brown did not put in an attempt to tackle might just tell us where we have got to with the team. Things are not right behind the scenes.
26 Oct 2020 13:24:00
Scott B lucky to stay on pitch also with a stupid elbow. This kind of stuff will cost us this year.

When we signed Duffy I thought it would add strength for our defence. he's starting to have a "Efe" moment every game now. Big Juliens return can't come quickly enough. Lile game on Thursday will be a watch through the crack of the fingers for 90 minutes. Then the semi final on Sunday which is a must win for Lennon.
Sevco will be 9 points ahead come next Sunday although we will have 2 games in hand. If we win them we will only be 3 points adrift which isn't that bad considering our poor run of form.
26 Oct 2020 07:30:41
I have heard Jullien doesn't want to be here - after a huge fall-out with the manager - preferring to be listed as 'injured'?
26 Oct 2020 08:06:48
That's the big problem pud " IF We Win "
26 Oct 2020 08:59:56
It's Bitton's return that can't come quickly enough!
26 Oct 2020 12:18:08
And el Ahmed too malky. We need a right back asap.
