At the aborted 2025 Celtic AGM shareholders were ‘treated’ to pre-recorded interviews from Nicholson and Lawwell. In a clearly agreed ploy both admitted that mistakes had been made during the summer transfer window.
With nobody left to blame, Wilson has called for the support of the fans. He does so at a time when disillusionment within the fan base is at an all time high.
Since the dismissal of Nancy there has been no word from the Celtic Board as to how they plan to identify a permanent successor to the hapless Wilf and his band of assistants.
Jim Orr recently said on the ACSOM podcast that we have a Board which never misses an opportunity to miss an opportunity. Time and again the Board have demonstrated an inability to build from a position of strength.
Well there is one easy move Wilson could make to signal the end of the boards war on Celtic fans and boost the atmosphere massively – bring back the Green Brigade.
The arrogance that’s been shown since he walked in is staggering for me. And I don’t mean in terms of, you know, behaviour.

The big question is just how on earth Tisdale managed to charm Desmond to the point that he trusted Tisdale more than Rodgers and Kennedy to build a winning Celtic team.
