Celtic are in the position because they got rid of their only decent managers in donkeys years .WGS who wisnae selic minded enough for them
They then signed Mogga and relatively speaking backed him financially and when it went tats up they crumbled and brought in the selic minded manager they had been greeting about for ages. However this only hid the fact that when they were interviewing every man and their dug turned them down for the post. Im sure i even seen stig o the dump walking through the front doors at CP, although that might have been Samaras .Lennon was not their first choice manager not by a long shot.
Now they are stuck in exactly the same situation again, they have a useless manager but the board want the cheapest option so who do they turn to?
No CL footie on the horizon, no spending bebond their means so who really truly would want the job

Timinator, I agree but I was talking about the board because it was mentioned before in the article.
Lennon sees the player six hours for training per day, yet when we step onto the field no one knows what to do. It is embarrassing.

sorry mate i don't agree, i think lennon was offered the job because you tried for quite a while to get someone else in and no one wanted the job. Anyone else say yes to it ? im willing to be proved wrong and apologise Truth is Lennon was the cheap option. Thats the only reason he was apointed

the whole seasons turned out to be an embarrassment,from sion and the europa league to sitting third in the league.The players are just going through the motions like they dont have a care in the world, it's extremely frustrating and i agree the board deserve all the flak the get it's as much their fault as anyones,unfortunatly i don't think they give a fook

your totally correct they pick up a nice bonus when you turn a profit. Don't get me wrong your good at that part . I just can't help but think if you had spent some decent money and perhaps kept kenny you would have torn us a new wan.

I don't really have a problem with the amount of money the board have spent in recent years. What I would like to know is how many players have they signed compared to how many of the manager's targets they have delivered during last three seasons. Apart from a few months in early 2011, we haven't looked like a 'team' since we won our own 3iar. I think our board have to take their share of the blame, but when you are dropping points regularly to teams with a fraction of our budget then you have to put it down to poor management.

absolutely if the board had backed wgs and got a striker in we probably would have got 4iar and maybe more, but true to form the board being a bunch eh greedy cants now look where we are,an absolote shambles, looking likely our rivals are going for 4iar.

Exactly, Harvey.
What annoyed me was how they treated WGS financially. If they had the ambition, he could have done much more with the club in my opinion.

We should be gunning for seven in a row just now, yet the Bears have all but sealed four?

---------------------------------
I think the board have looked at some of the expensive flops in recent years and considered it too financially reckless. Instead, the club's policy is to buy young promising players with a view to making a profit down the line. This is actually a good policy as long as it isn't eating into the manager's budget to bring in his own players which now seems to be the case with the signings of Wanyama and Bangura instead of fixing that defence.
