Strachan must go

Hysteria or stupidity but one or Two Celtic fans aren't too happy with wee Gordon at the moment. This weekend is the start of the season proper and we are backing the team,the manager, and the whole club to the hilt and remain as always faithful through and through but what if?



If you had been on a desert island for a few months and just got back to earth and switched on the teletext to catch up with all the Celtic news you would be forgiven for thinking that the world had gone mad. Someone or something has put the bhoys into meltdown and its not pretty. While we are far from having a cracked crest and we are sure to pull our socks up at the start of the season just what would you be thinking if you were trying to catch up on the last few months Celtic news?. you would be reading the following

Celtic fan running onto the pitch and throwing down his scarf.
club ripping off fans by not having a half time windfall draw because of low crowds.
Celtic playing piles of crazy pre season games.

Celtic going to Japan AFTER the season starts and 3 days before a Hearts game.

Manchester United reserves making us look stupid.

"Celtic dont play friendlies" well we do now and we dont care if we get beaten.

Celtic Ultras protesting at Kilmarnock about "political flags and leaflets not being allowed"

Manager thinking about Signing Dionne Dublin again.

Petrov wanting away and manager hanging onto him.

Season books for sale and Celtic spamming web users to try to get rid of them.

switching on your video and seeing an empty Celtic park when playing Manchester United

would you be thinking your world had fallen apart? You might be forgiven for thinking exactly that. It might have been even worse if instead of being on that desert island you were actually at the home game and saw that the catering is now run by a company who employ people who cannot understand you and who take seven minutes to work out that you want a packet of cheese and onion crisps and who run out of food and drinks before half time. You could be standing in a manky paradise or sitting down and having to clean your seat with a towel because its covered with pigeon shit and having to watch Adam Virgo making a complete backside of himself and your team an national telly.

Who would you blame for the state of your team? would it be the wee ginger haired guy who has never ever liked Celtic in the first place and who looks as if he doesn't care what happens next? maybe?

OR would you be quite happy with whats been happening and know in your heart of hearts that it will all come good and its still better to watch a struggling Celtic than to be anywhere else in the world? after all its STILL paradise and its always still great to be a Celt?


what do you think though? thats the important thing. our messageboards are open
