Straight after the League Cup Final defeat to St Mirren this site called for Nancy, Tisdale and Nicholson to be sacked there and then. In the four disasters since they have only added more evidence to the cases for dismissal.
At half time Nancy replaced Tierney, Maeda and Paolo Bernardo. Celtic should have replaced Nancy and his ridiculous 3-4-3 system. There is barely a player being used in a position that they find natural.
And still, their floor has kept them level with Hearts’ ceiling. I am not being arrogant. It’s history, data, and lived reality. Even when Celtic aren’t right, they’re relentless in a way no one else in this league can sustain.
Strangely, or maybe not the Daily Record, Sun and STV have yet to highlight the attack on a young fan who was man-handled by three stewards after James Forrest scored against Aberdeen.
No-one knows the dynamics of the relationship but the Tisdale and Nicholson dynamic looks like every manager’s nightmare.
Getting the Police media team to issue that farcical statement explains exactly why Celtic recruited Mark Hargreaves and his contact book.
With the blade terror story taken apart Gaddi wasn’t deterred. On Saturday the Record carried it as a page lead, any excuse to put the boot into Celtic fans goes down well with their ageing Army of Readers.
A fan when it’s handy, a fan when it makes him look good, a fan when it protects his little kingdom. But step out of line? Question what he’s saying? Criticize what he’s doing? Suddenly, the fan disappears. And the man, untouchable, remains.
Anyone with a knowledge of football crowds and stadium security in 2025 would instantly dismiss the story.
Just another false accusation of violence levelled at every single Celtic fan. A board big on statements and updates but light on evidence.
