A new manager will be in soon enough. Idiots were thinking Ally would be here for a year a few days ago
Kenny McDowell is your new manager.

Celtic are averaging 2.23 points per match and are on course for 85 points which is more than what we got in 2012-13.

The main difference is other sides are doing so much better and showing much more consistency.

Unfortunately you aren't a big enough person to admit that.
It's an appalling league you've dropped points in 30% of the games. The top league in the country has no sponsor that wants to touch it because the quality is poor and the only drama in it is created when a pedestrian Celtic team loses to Hamilton or Inverness in front of half empty stadiums.

No point kidding yourself on that there is drama or intrigue there. Second place will finish well behind Celtic and get put out of Europe by the runners up from Belarus in July. Barry Hearn nailed the state of Scottish football sponsorship earlier this month.

On here laughing at Celtic while your board have pitched a tent in the middle of Ibrox and are making a fool of you and other supporters.

I assume you will be expecting a big name manager?

I don't even know if it is cost cutting. Salary will still be getting paid, so will Durrant and Clipboard may well get a rise seeing as he is now the gaffer.

The more it changes the more it stays the same. Just like with the board.

King Billy managing Rangers has a certain ring to it......

He's not a bad manager and has always been a name that came up when the job was looking to be available. Better than Delilah anyway.

Sorry I was speaking about a Super Ally's Replacement for next season when Kenny McDowall most likely steps down from being No1.

Did anyone get on video the bit where the badge fell off the front of the table as Easdale made his speech?

The Championship will be the best league to watch next year in Scotland by a mile. The TV companies know it. The Premiership is just a boring procession and now with no Edinburgh derby it has lost its biggest game.
Bumping an old post but it's now xmas and the SPFL Premiership is the tightest top league in Europe with 5 points splitting the top 4 teams.

How's the Championship coming along Frankie? Hearts 12 points clear now is it?

Dundee Utd had 12,000 fans there for 1st vs 2nd. No sponsor, fewer fans than a Hearts game vs part time Alloa and the only reason it is even close is the inept Celtic defence and a clueless manager. The easiest league to win in Europe and possibly the world being closer than it should be doesn't mean squat.

You all thought you were brilliant last season too qualifying for Europe and getting put out before the schools were back. There is more drama with Rangers chasing Hearts than seeing who will finish 20 points off Celtic.

That'll be why they have the best goals against record in the league and 3rd best in Britain.

The SFA tell Ashley to do one. More secured loans coming up or are they just going to come to their senses and call in the administrators.

6 goals shipped to Legia, 5 to Red Bull, 4 to Dinamo Zagreb. It's a porous defence even with this supposed best centre half in the world VvD in it. Rank teams in the Premiership only taking 12 goals off them in 17 games when third rate European teams can take 15 goals in 5 games tells you a lot about the standard of Scottish football.
