Anyone take him as manager? Red Star Belgrade manager. Has been pretty consistent over the past few years.

When the old club won 8 iar Celtic only lost 1 league game that season and we still didn't win the title but you could see we were in touching distance and we eventually just won the league 2 years later.
When we win 8 iar Celtic are more than 2 years ahead of sevco, so unless something drastic happens we will win 10 in a row.
The list of things that can go wrong for Celtic to prevent us making history would be if sevco get bank rolled to the extreme that they would overtake us or if we bring in a foreign coach who has no knowledge of scottish football.
We can't at this stage when we have them on their knees, give them any encouragement of getting back up.
At this stage keep it simple and give Lenny the job for the next 2 years, let him finish what he started.

They will do everything possible to stop us but so would we do that. Win Sunday win our next league game. If all this goes to plan our lads who have won eight wil be emotionally knackered as the amount of games. Rodgers put so much pressure on these when he left it was unbelievable honestly who leaves a team who are winning everything. For us to win nine will be so tough they will trying to stop us including refs media the usual lot. We need a few buzzing players w could be ready HH.

Some very Naive statements in there LeonBhoy. The fact is we have been on the decline since our first season under Rodgers. It’s clear he wanted out before he couldn’t cope with the decline in quality any longer. We need a lot of investment in our squad especially in defence. There is nothing new in there. We need freshness. With a real manager. Don’t give me the drivel that someone can’t cope because of the league. Rodgers comes with the league compared to any other manager since Jock Stein and he was new to it all. Your points are invalid and make no sense. Celtic Da comes to mind.

Basically it comes down to us investing properly how comfortable or not 10 in a row will be.

Where’s the ‘away and don’t talk pish’ button when you need it. We have a huge squad which is miles ahead of Sevco and we’ll hopefully add another few in the summer but we don’t ‘need a lot of investment in our squad’.

Agree we're ahead of sevco but the gap should be bigger we be we seem to really push the boat out and strengthen from a position of dominance just a couple of quality signings that are here for 2 or 3 years and we're there.

Ken LikeEh, you should always listen to your Celtic Da.
I do agree we have been in decline but we have still won the league easily.
I also agree we need to push the boat out next season and invest heavily on players.
I was quite happy for the money to sit in the bank for emergencies but the time has come to spend big and blow away our title rivals.
I would trust Lenny with a big transfer budget, he deserves great credit after the job he done with recruitment first time around. The team he took over from Mowbray was a total shambles and Lenny built a fantastic team.
If we did bring in a manager from Serbia, there is a good chance he would probably bring in a couple or a few of players from that country because he knows the players.
Sevco done something similar last season when they brought in and paid good money for 3 players who played in Croatia last season and they have all struggled to get a regular game and now look a total waste of money.
I don't see why at this stage Celtic should take the chance of messing up 10 in a row.
Give Lenny 2 years and then the young team can then bring in their foreign coach to take us into a more modern football world.

I think the gap is what it is because of our lack of form and injuries. Add another 4 or 5 players this summer and a new manager and we should run away with the league. Our form before Christmas is what's made the league tighter than it should have been.
11 Apr 2019 21:57:46
If we’re in decline, I’d like to know what players we had two years ago that were better than what we’ve got now.

You can't beat an invincible season, so the only way is down, but to be fair to the bhoys they have continued to bring the trophies home.
Its amazing to think that when we beat hearts 5-0 away to win the league that year it was still Ronnies team apart from Sinclair that started that day.
Brendan was a good coach but Ronnie left him the tools to work with.

The current squad will look a lot different come July. Boyata, Benkovic, Compper, Hendry, Doris, Benyu, Alan, Gamboa, Mulumbu all certs to leave. Burke, Weha, Toljan loans are over. Izzy, Lustig, Sinclair Biton and Gordon are are maybes. Gutman, Perez, Shved, Morgan, Johnston, Henderson, Dembele, Armstrong Okoflex are all young and raring to go so hopefully we will see them throughout next season.
