There has never been a more boring time to support Celtic.
Out of the league cup. MORTONIFIED!
Out of Europe. PRETTY WICK CAMPAIGN.
Already won the league. ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.
It's only really the Scottish Cup that throws up any interest.
All this from a club with a roller-coaster existence, with even the earliest press records of Celtic's playing style making comment about the attacking flair of the club and the romance of its underdog position and challenges within Scottish football.
Hard to adjust to.
I think last season wasn't so bad interest wise as we made the last 16 of Europe and stayed in the league cup longer [Congrats St. Mirren!], and even having a break from Rangers felt nice/holidayish [due to the negatives by association they sometimes create 'ie Old Firm tag, both as bad as each other etc] for us.
Thoughts?
[ps I would say though that I've been happy with the way the team remain unbeaten in the league and the performances of Kris Commons have been outstanding].
But are we being STIMULATED enough!

I'm auld and remember the mid 60's and the 90's.
These days we are in just now are fine by comparison
Looking at the thread more closely, some over 25's also expect it.
I aspire to flashing cavalier football and CL success.
I don't expect it.

Ethel.
There's a correlation between the fast food explosion and managers being sacked.
People have no patience these days.
Nae wunner I fvk aff to the Western Isles whenever I can.
BTW. Over 33% of the EPL managers in place in August are gone.

I remember an era when a manager got the sack it was Newsflash ' Kennedy Shot' stuff.

TMQ - the WI ypu can keep - I hate it there with a passion
They say it's a results driven business - it is
But 6 months in the job when in economic and political terms they have for the most part been getting it wrong for centuries - Eton Rifles eh - goodnight sir x

Curly - honest & earnest comments there.
IMO Scottish football is often now about 'When We Were Kings'.
The memories, triumphs, and the outstanding world class individuals loads of Scottish clubs had should be revered and not used as some kinda chib to attack the present.
We need acceptance now of realities, and get back to our instinctive love of 11 v 11.
