“Just give us a chance to do this and to do it properly…” Brian Wilson With a few days left of the window, we are 14 players down, have 5 injuries, and only have 20 available first-team players.

Spitting at fans, bleating about red cards, and demanding VAR audio. Maybe try losing the game fair & square with a bit of dignity? 🤷🏻‍♂️

It doesn’t matter what Brian Wilson says here, not one person at the club will stand up to someone with a shareholding of 34.7%. The Chief Executive Officer is the chief of nothing at Celtic. He bows at the altar of the moustachioed one and has to seek permission to spend anything above a certain low-bar threshold. We’ve brought in 5 loanees during this window and failed to spend a single penny in transfer fees, making a net profit on transfers this season of circa £13m. Michael Nicholson has presided over failure after failure, but tonight should be his final act. His position, along with Chris McKay’s, is untenable.

Thank you to all my Rangers-supporting followers on here for their messages yesterday. As I haven’t had time to respond to you all individually, here’s a wee video in celebration of Fergus McCann’s takeover 30 years ago today, which ensured Celtic’s unbroken history 💚

Maeda is a one-off. CCV’s diagonal ball to him instantly put Rangers on the back foot. It was similar in that respect to Hart’s assist at Ibrox. Maeda’s superhuman return from injury has been huge to our title push.

🇩🇪 If Celtic bring Nicolas Kühn in, this will make us top-heavy in that area with Maeda, Palma, Johnston, Abada, Yang, Tilio & Forrest already on the books (and Haksabanovic out on loan). 🗣️ It begs the question, which of these wingers will leave?

If a 20-year-old came in from the academy, contributed 10 goals & 12 assists, played 50 games, broke into the international team, won half-a-dozen MOTM awards, & was pivotal in our European progress & push for the treble, we’d all be rating him at £25m.

If O’Neill wants Maswanhise and Motherwell want £4m, then the deal should already have been done. £4m is peanuts - We paid the same amount for Alan Stubbs 30 years ago. Stop acting like amateurs and get the player signed.

“All he does is score penalties.” What a contribution Engels made when he returned from injury. If we do lose him this summer, it will be for a record Scottish football fee.

Banned for five months and generally taken for granted by the Blazerati at our football club. But as a great man once iconically said, “They’re there and they’re always there. And God bless every one of them.”

Like Tony Mowbray after Love Street, and John Barnes after Inverness Caley, Wilfried Nancy should be called into Celtic Park this morning and relieved of his duties. Paul Tisdale has to go as well. This isn’t personal, it’s about salvaging this season.

In 1975, one of Celtic's most iconic stars suddenly and inexplicably vanished… 50 years on, he returns to answer the question that has mystified fans for generations: Whatever happened to George Connelly? A truly indie film. By the fans, for the fans. Link in the comments.

We will probably only see this man 5 more times in a Celtic jersey. He looks like the Daizen of old. If he keeps that up, he could be the difference-maker.

Earlier this week, I took a trip down the Barras to visit the Kitback pop-up shop. Over 1,000 shirts all in immaculate condition and looking for new homes. Check the collection out during the World Cup - it’s all for a wonderful cause 💚

Farewell to Daizen Maeda. He completed Scottish football and we can’t grudge him his move. I hope the Ipswich fans get a glimpse of what the wee man gave us 💚🩷 Celtic now have to get their finger out and announce Kasper Høgh.

Rangers are the form team. Hearts have been the most consistent across the season. Celtic are still in it due to Martin O’Neill.

At a club riddled with self-harm, chaos & dysfunction, Martin O’Neill has emerged as a unifying force of nature. No other figure could have dragged us kicking & screaming back into this title race - twice! Never underestimate the Martin O’Neill Effect.

We failed to attack John Souttar, preferring to pass the ball about between Kasper, CCV, Scales and McGregor (to find the point of attack, apparently). Nygren is a central midfielder all day long and is wasted on the wing. Engels needs to take more responsibility. Not once has he grabbed a game by the bollocks and orchestrated play. McGregor passes the ball back to where it came from, rather than turn and pick out a forward pass. He’s undroppable but wouldn’t be in the team based solely on performance. Brendan’s style is tedious and easy to set up against. We have poor energy and no tempo. Everything is too precise and we never try the unexpected to create a bit of chaos. Too many players are passive. Where are our leaders? KT not finishing any games is a major concern. Scales was our best player.

I’ve been asked several times this season what the Martin O’Neill Effect is. Winning 83% of the available points despite all the chaos and dysfunction surrounding the club. He’s kept us in this title fight. It’s that simple.
