4-2-3-1 Ed? Or the midfielder up front thing again? Good to see Forrest back on the bench hopefully he gets a run out try build his fitness up for 2 weeks time.

{Ed007's Note - It'll be one of them but I'm hoping it's not 1 up front. Forrest was pencilled in to be on the bench against Aberdeen and to start today but he obviously didn't make it, hopefully he will get his fitness up over the next 2 weeks.}

07 Mar 2021 11:41:42
Still not going with two recognized strikers and sticking with the under-performing Christie; it's like NL is still picking the team.

07 Mar 2021 11:54:03
Elyounoussi gets his first start in 9 games.

06 Mar 2021 10:42:09
Clyde one last night one of the pundits he's a writer Mark Queedy spelling bad there. Claims that JK has a really good chance of being next manager but at this moment i think my gran has as much a chance as everyone has at this moment.

06 Mar 2021 11:43:36
It's the usual bollocks from reporters like during a transfer window, they have no clue and just use the scatter gun approach so if in a few weeks one of there names come up they can go with the old "As I exclusively broke the story on the ***"

06 Mar 2021 12:32:26
Sounds like wishful thinking from a Sevconian gloater.

06 Mar 2021 13:30:29
Narc guidi a think but I always thought he was a Tim, may be wrong, if Kennedy gets it look for st sales to plummet do the board really want that.

06 Mar 2021 17:05:43
I always thought Guidi was a Tim, anywhoo, agree with you all that the 'media' have no clue what's going on at CP and they don't like that.

06 Mar 2021 18:46:16
So are Nicholas, Walker, and keevins etc and they stick the knives in, just toeing the party line.

06 Mar 2021 20:42:34
Celtic just Kb'd a 14million bid for Eddy apparently seen it on another site.

04 Mar 2021 17:55:25
See Jack hendry being linked with Burnley, he's obviously doing something right.

04 Mar 2021 18:01:43
I've been as harsh on him as anybody and deservedly so in my opinion but if he's come on leaps and bounds, and a deal hasn't been agreed with another club yet, then I'd be happy enough for the new manager to run the rule over him in the summer.

04 Mar 2021 18:40:12
Don't know kev but all the reports are excellent. it took ajer to go on loan and learn the trade, who knows he might be worth keeping if we can.

04 Mar 2021 20:24:01
When I watched him before, he had all the attributes to be a good centre back, then a mistake comes and he loses it for the game and the crowd get on his back, putting more pressure on him.
If as he’s got a bit older, and a bit more experienced he may turn out a better player, hopefully under a new coach who improves players can have a look at him. With all the players going back or leaving, we may need him for the qualifiers .

04 Mar 2021 22:53:27
I might be wrong but I think our ship has sailed with Hendry. My understanding is that a fee has been agreed with Oostende as part of the original loan deal and if they want to sign him for that fee then the deal is done. They could sign him on day one of the Summer transfer window and sell him to another club for more the next day. HH.

05 Mar 2021 00:53:35
Still needs Hendry to agree personal terms though. If he knows he has a shot at Celtic he may want to come back.

05 Mar 2021 07:20:59
Always get the Benny hill tune in my head. When Jack Hendry is mentioned the night at Partick Thistle was hilarious 😂😂😂😂.

05 Mar 2021 12:06:00
This is a funny one for me. If it was reported we were siging one of the best CBs in Belgium we would all be quite happy with that but it being hendry fans are binning the idea straight away.
Was he thrown in to early then hung out to dry?

05 Mar 2021 12:40:58
Possibly kev but like ajer needs time, we expect our young players to hit levels they ain't ready, so by a accounts he's ripping up a far superior league to ours.

05 Mar 2021 20:07:50
I say get him back for sure, I thought he had decent attributes for someone untested playing for a club like Celtic. I always remember BR saying the plan was to bring him in and develop him over time, that sadly never happened due to our defensive troubles he was thrown in too early maybe.
Get him back and give him a chance.

{Ed007's Note - Thankfully Hendry doesn't want to return to Celtic, the fee and his contract is agreed with Oostende and it was the player that pushed for the option to buy as he is fed up moving around.
Even if Hendry could come back would you want the Club to give him an extended contract as he only has a year left on his current one?}

Steve Clarke said that he will be taking a long holiday after the Euros and wants to lead Scotland to the World Cup in 2022.
He'd look silly if he backtracks on such an adamant statement.
He won't be coming to Celtic however I never thought he would anyway after what he said about protecting himself and his family from the sectarian hatred in Glasgow. HH.

03 Mar 2021 10:38:57
Thank **** for that.

03 Mar 2021 10:58:24
I've seen people do a lot worse backtracking than that tbh besty.

03 Mar 2021 11:07:14
Reports are suggest Celtic have made contact with Eddie Howe.
I never felt Eddie Howe was a possible target because he’s been available since last August.
If that’s the Celtic boards first choice, then why have they delayed the approach.
He should’ve been appointed last November at the latest.

03 Mar 2021 11:37:20
Unless he wanted to come in at the start of a season rather than mid way through a shambolic one BB? Tbh I don't think think the board would have sacked NL in November anyway. I'd imagine around Jan though they might have approached possible targets.

03 Mar 2021 11:56:06
Buzz
Maybe he didn't want to take over a Cluster **** of a season.
He may also be the manager that was rumoured to have said that he would take the job but wouldn't work with Lawwell.
Personally I still think its Keane who will be announced in the next couple of weeks after Sevco win the title.

03 Mar 2021 12:04:50
Buzz they need to get a director of football in place befire or the exact same time as a head coach.

03 Mar 2021 12:34:50
Clarke also said later in the interview he’s looking forward to the Euros and then we’ll see what happens after that. He’s not going to come out in the press and say he’s interest in the Celtic job. I certainly didn’t take from his comments that he’s ruled himself out of the Celtic job.

03 Mar 2021 13:06:16
Steve Clarke would be a horrendous Celtic manager. His style of football is terrible. Aye we’d be able to defend, but no one would pay to watch it. Scotland have been pretty crap under him as well. Struggled in those groups and won penalty shootouts. Overlooked by the relief of finally reaching a finals.

03 Mar 2021 13:07:21
DoF will have to be in place before a new manager IF we are looking at bringing in a DoF that is.

03 Mar 2021 13:51:05
They backed lennon so how could they go for howe.

03 Mar 2021 14:00:24
How could they go for Howe? They phone his agent.

03 Mar 2021 14:33:02
I think Howe would be interested but I also think Howe will wait to see if there's a job (like the crystal palace one) comes up this season down south. Even a newly relegated team like sheffield utd etc.

03 Mar 2021 14:40:40
So you want celtic to phone about another manager when they have one.

03 Mar 2021 20:14:31
I just don't see Howe coming. I think it'll be someone like Keane and I think that's an awful appointment if I'm honest.

03 Mar 2021 20:20:07
Mally are you just trying to be argumentative or are you really that naive?
Football clubs will talk to other managers while they have a manager in place all the time.
Celtic even spoke to strachen to ask him to take us over till the end of the season at the end of November.

03 Mar 2021 23:00:17
If Clarke gets the Celtic job I’ll be looking for a new team. The guys football is the worst I’ve ever seen. He’s not doing a good job with Scotland despite the furore over the jammy qualification.

03 Mar 2021 23:02:19
It’s amazing how many Celtic fans have such a low opinion of Celtic that they think we can’t attract a decent manager.
They must have been asleep when we had MON and Rodgers.
Did Rafa go to China because it’s a footballing hotbed, or did he go for the money? If Celtic offered Rafa or Howe enough money they’ll come. If Celtic offered Slippy enough money he’d come.

03 Mar 2021 23:51:33
What manager do we have Mally? Are you suggesting Kennedy should get the job?

03 Mar 2021 23:54:44
Celtic never spoke to Strachan about taking over until the end of the season. That’s a fact.

04 Mar 2021 00:35:37
Says you my god pot kettle . so celtic are phoning other managers while we have one. if so why hasn't it been leaked . there must be a name . who kev.

04 Mar 2021 08:00:52
Degsy76. I think some managers won't come to Glasgow because of the abuse and the sectarianism, which in this day and age I don't blame them. Scotland is recognised all over the world for bigotry.

04 Mar 2021 08:03:21
Maybe the DOF could be MON and new coach Keane.

04 Mar 2021 20:34:30
That’s would be horrific Aussie ray.

04 Mar 2021 22:57:02
Guys, your guessing games are making you all sound ridiculous. I don't know what's gonnae happen, you don't know, no-one knows for sure so it may be better to stop being self appointed experts until the facts are known. HH.
