This board are not fit for purpose, and there should be resignations submitted immediately. It’s the honourable thing to do after the transfer window fiasco that they have put us through and the weakened state that they have left Brendan Rodgers; squad in after a shambles of a summer…

Yet another transfer window has passed and we’ve all been left with that ever so familiar feeling of anger and disappointment, as we find our squad much weaker than when the window opened for business.
Those championing for the board will point to the fact we’ve brokered deals for no fewer than 11 new players but that doesn’t tell the whole entire sorry saga.
Only a fraction of those players can be considered first team ready players, and once again we were made to look like fools as we frantically scrambled around on the last day searching for much needed quality, and ended up scraping through the bargain shelf, despite raking in almost £25 million in transfer fees.

We failed to replace Kyogo in January, and once again failed to put that right, we even sold Adam Idah without replacing him! Nicolas Kuhn is also gone as the creativity and goal threat is ripped from the heart of our attack. You couldn’t make it up, we are a complete and utter shambles, and heads must roll.

It’s clear for anyone to see that our squad is weak and in need of urgent reinforcements, but once again those in charge turned a blind eye to what was needed.
Michael Nicholson, Chris McKay and our illustrious chairman Peter Lawwell are nothing more than incompetents, football has moved on and they have failed to keep up and to many they only seem interested in what they can accomplish for themselves by increasing yet again the Celtic PLC bank balance.

The Kasper Dolberg saga is a perfect example. Wait until the last minute and low ball the selling club and player, before another club ultimately swoops in. We were even turned down by a Chelsea fringe player in favour of Charlton Athletic! It’s certainly not a good look this morning. And poor old Yang! You have to feel for him.
It’s time for a change of direction, we need a complete overhaul of the board and bring in some much needed fresh faces who are not only competent, but are ambitious and will take the club forward.

We are currently a laughing stock, and understandably so. No Celtic supporters are laughing this morning. Change is badly needed, and those in charge if they have any shred of self respect, should be doing the honourable thing and resigning with immediate effect.
Just an Ordinary Bhoy

There isn’t a hope in hell that any of them will resign. They are all smug, arrogant and incompetent but know they couldn’t get a job anywhere else so they cling on. I include Desmond in all this. He is as much of the problem as Nicholson, Liewell and McKay. No doubt though over the next few days the apologists from mainly CQN will be sent out to tell us that things are nowhere near as bad as we think.
Nicholson, your time is up our mute CEO as is your right hand man Chris McKay. Lawwell you have taken more money out our club than any player or manager and your time was up a long time ago. As for the rest of you just go too you parasite’s stealing a wage.
Spot on Gordon.
It is interesting with Celtic’s low-ball technique, how other clubs let Celtic do the initial negotiating and then come in at the vital moment when they know the real asking price and sign the player right under our noses.
I doubt there is a more incompetent set of people anywhere than on the Celtic board.
How many times have we all read this the board the board the boared ,,,,,,,yet come the end of the season you’ll all be buying your season tickets your merch your euro tickets and the board will still do the same shitshow ,rinse and repeat
You all were on mute and let Lawwell back in the building ,voices are forever mute regarding Desmond same goes with elite plan b fraud
you reap what you sow ,,,,,,,you all became customers ,,,,,so deal with it
The Celtic support lost their balls after we got rid of the kellys ,now you the customers accept it ,,,,whitewash it ,,,, and in the end spin it as a good thing
atleast they manky ba*****s across the river raise a voice ,even a pished stained bed sheet
Yup, wishful thinking. I’m afraid the fans will do what they always do, nothing. Gave my season ticket up some years back, because of this stuff, have never regretted it. People go on about others waiting to snap up their season book if they give it up, poor excuse, for continuing to see something you professe to love, evicerated over the years, leaving a shell of what the team could be. Personally I’m glad I made a stand, unfortunately others won’t, putting themselves and a ghost team before running these charlatans out of town. That is the only thing they’d understand, or that might get them out, they don’t care about football, but as I say, once again the fans will do nothing. You deserve what you get, and are prepared to accept, a sub standard Celtic.
