I remember when we signed Darren Jackson and loads of fans turned up at his unveiling just to boo him.
I expect the exact same thing to happen if Keane is our new manager. The only saving grace may be C.V. restrictions.
26 Mar 2021 10:26:11
No one will be booing him. If people are ****ed off take it out on the board. He doesn't appoint himself. If he is picked get him in now and get the massive job started and don't leave it too late for the CL qualifiers. He wouldn't be my first choice but if it's him he will get my full support. If players are too fragile to work with him they are too fragile to wear our jersey. We need guys who will fight for us. Not spoiled pussies.
26 Mar 2021 10:33:56
Get a grip he might no be everyone's cup of tea, but you can't be booing the man before he's even started the job. The club can do without that type of support we need to all be pulling in same direction.
26 Mar 2021 10:39:04
I have went down and got myself a couple of dozen eggs and a megaphone. Will be down at the stadium for the unveiling and letting my feelings be known.
26 Mar 2021 10:42:56
what a terrible attitude to have mate. keep it away please booing people who are joining our club as gar1888 states we do not need it we all have to get behind who ever comes in.
26 Mar 2021 10:51:03
I won't be getting behind Roy Keane, that is a fact.
26 Mar 2021 10:57:24
i won't be booing him but i don't want a bully or someone with a thugish temper as manager of celtic and although he was a very good player its a toss up to see who was the biggest bully him or duncan ferguson.
{Ed007's Note - Jesus wept! 🤦â€â™‚ï¸
26 Mar 2021 10:58:47
Sh$t post shocking, if that's what some fans would do . not celtic fans stay away. support whoever gets it.
26 Mar 2021 11:03:25
Why would you turn up and boo Keane? He is only wanting a job and our club, an amazing club. Your gripe is with who appoints him, not him. What’s your reasons for applying for jobs? Wages, good company, fits with family, whatever they are I am sure you would not be happy with folk booing you on your 1st day.
26 Mar 2021 11:09:05
You're never going to please all of the people all of the time.
With so many against Celtic why would you take their side?
26 Mar 2021 11:27:44
Laudate Dominum.
26 Mar 2021 11:28:24
Well Keane wouldn’t be in my top 5 preferred choices to be manager, but if it is Keane I’m 100% behind him, yes he maybe a hot head, but he definitely isn’t a yes man (Delia, Lennon) bein close to DD is also a good thing as he will be 100% backed. I thought at times with Lennon not bein on the same football level as slippy (not that it really matters) may have been intimidated. Keane was on a level and won’t be intimidated. Actually he’ll thrive on getting 1 over him. Also Keane needs to make this work to build his profile up again. Yes it’s a gamble, yes he’s know ones No1 choice. But if it happens let’s get 100% behind him and help him put the sevvies back in their place. HH.
26 Mar 2021 11:31:46
If anybody actually believed our board would get in a top proven manager, like all the names the bookies floated to fleece mugs, you really haven't been paying attention. There was zero chance if that happening. I'm not happy with their attitude and lack of ambition and balls, but I knew It would never happen and so should everybody else who had the first clue about our board.
26 Mar 2021 11:42:52
you can jesus wept all you like ed but some of his tackles when he lost the plot were career wrecking, go on and google or youtube his and fergusons, i also said i won't be booing him but i really hope its not him as going by his comments as a pundit and his abrasive manner half the team will be scared to play for him in case he stars on them. entitled to my opinion.
{Ed007's Note - So who's career did his tackle's wreck and who did he bully apart from opposition players on the park just like Brown done for years for us?}
26 Mar 2021 11:53:35
Throwing eggs lol. I hope you never worked with someone that didn't rate you LAW🤣🤣.
26 Mar 2021 11:54:25
How many if us would of wanted someone like keane in during this season just to give the players a kick they need, if he is the manager and is working with a dof and different coaching team then im sure the players that get recruited will be ones that give everything, at the moment there's very few players id want to keep so if he did come in and upset the slackers so be it and get rid. Players are paid a fortune to play a game we all would love to do for a living if they can't handle a winner coming in telling them to get there arse in gear because they want to be talked to nicely then leave. Keane wouldn't be my first choice but would back him! Plus if it is Desmonds choice he's going to want to be proved right so hopefully money gets spent.
26 Mar 2021 12:06:05
Hope Keane catches you after you throw your eggs lol. The one good thing about Keane coming in if it is him am sure he will manage to get Desmond to part with serious funds to back him.
26 Mar 2021 12:06:48
Dillits half the players have not turned up to play when they have been mollycoddled. They are clearly not fit so training prob a mess about game of 5 aside, obviously not working on set pieces. What we need is a headliner that creates a professional manner about the place, they are there to do their best and be their best. Technically I worry about Keane but managing the players then it might be what’s required. Plus it’s not bullying if your telling them the truth. Man up and play for the right to wear our jersey or leave. Simple.
26 Mar 2021 12:11:45
lennonatwork. if roy is the next manager and you won't be getting behind him what will you be doing then. he will be managing the team we support so how will you support the team in this way. who ever is in that dug out needs our full support and deserves the chance to be successful.
{Ed007's Note - If LAW tries it I'll hunt him down and tan his windaes! I've had to sit here for years with folk talking about their love for Neil Lennon and all the birthday card pish while biting my tongue (well fingers lol) so I'll take an egg for Keano - just think Kevin Costner in The Bodyguard 😂
🎶I will always love yoooooooooooouuuuuuu 🎶
26 Mar 2021 12:12:18
The panty wetters on here would have hated 70s and 80s football then, you know when tackling was aloud. keane ai t my first choice bur some of the reasons for not having him on here are a joke, because he liked a tackle because he might shout at some prima Donna. feck off with that bollocks.
{Ed007's Note - I don't particularly want Keane either, I've said it a million times but you're spot on, we all moaned about players not trying a leg this season and that wouldn't happen under Keane, being intense and competitive doesn't make you a bully. If it's him then the coaches will be crucial appointments, if they get that right it could turn out to be a masterstroke. I said the other week what about Harkin as DOF, Keane as manager/head coach and Maresca & Duff as his assistants?
Is being No.2 at Celtic a step up from managing City's Under-23s? I really fear that if Maresca gets the main job it will chew him up and spit him out.}
26 Mar 2021 12:37:21
@Ed007 - I don't think they realised I was being flippant when I said I was heading down with my eggs and megaphone. lol
Obviously, I will still support the team as it is in my blood. However, I won't be giving the club any money and will be even more annoyed with the board than I am already.
I also do not think I am alone in feeling let down by the board and appointing Keane would be a major kick in the gonads to us all.
{Ed007's Note - I'm trying to look at the bigger picture, Keane's only a cog in the machine and with the right people around him it could work out well. People forget that even though he's been out of management 10 years Keane's spent a lot of time that time as an assistant to MON so he must be better than a lot of people - including me - think on the training ground.}
26 Mar 2021 12:57:13
I would be happy to be proven wrong but Keane's possible appointment is filling me with more dread than Lennon's appointment did.
In all honesty I do not see what Keane is bringing to the table.
He has a mediocre record in management.
Does not have a track record of developing players.
Has a reputation for upsetting dressing rooms.
Bad record in the transfer department.
{Ed007's Note - It won't be his job to develop players or sign them, that'll be the youth coaches and the DOF and signings will be down to a Head Scout and the DOF, and CEO although Keane will have an input.
He was doing well at Sunderland until the behind the scenes politics wrecked the club and they've still never really recovered from that and oh boo hoo players don't like being shouted at when they're playing badly or not working hard enough.}
26 Mar 2021 13:06:16
Exactly ed he must have something and like I keep banging in about we need players to give everything and want to, feel privileged to play for Celtic. To know that all is mad men would take an egg for the club 😂. Keane can bring a demand for professional responsibility and dedication. I also fear maresca might rubbish the bed when the pressure gets turned on.
{Ed007's Note - Even if we are doing well Maresca has had no experience of dealing with the press let alone the pressure of being a manager let alone managing Celtic and everything that goes with that.
The pressure would be on him the minute he's announced with every facet of his life splashed all over the media, how would his family cope with all of it?}
26 Mar 2021 13:13:40
Seems even more pointless appointing him now as he won't be doing anything other than shouting at people.
{Ed007's Note - 🤦â€â™‚ï¸ Whoever comes in as manager/head coach will be in the same boat, it's how modern football clubs are - and should be - ran.
For the love of all that is good on God's green earth let's not get back into all that ðŸ˜ðŸ˜
26 Mar 2021 13:28:09
I'm sure that has already been happening since Rodgers left.
