Barton is a troll, that's all. The more Celtic fans waste their energy talking about him, rather than our top class manager and our team taking a huge step towards the Champions League, the more Barton's comments retain an ounce of relevance. Forget Sevco. Forget 'Warbiola'. Forget Barton. Just focus on Celtic. |

I take it you are not being serious. Who cares what his name is. He is as irrelevant as his line of questioning. No offence but it sounds like our manager made him squirm just fine without your help. |

The big difference with Rodgers is his flexibility. RD was almost completely the opposite and seemed to set up a team to win the game but had absolutely no contingency for reacting to how the game flows. Even with a two nil lead, you never quite felt any game was in the bag and time and time again we threw away a lead by panicking when we found ourselves under the cosh From listening to BR, he seems very aware that there will be points in the game when you need to react Either losing a goal or even killing off a game when we get the lead, he seems determined to get the players to deal with this much better than last year. Rather than crumble as we did last year, we seem to make adjustments and get on with the game BR always seems to keep something in reserve, he has made a number of excellent substitutions since he came which have either rescued a game or kept us in it. Last night I actually believed we could score more than three and I think the players did too - that's the main difference so far. Splendid |

Oh the AWKWARD silence when that eejit asked about Barton! What's the wee lapel badge that he wears, it's purple with a red heart on it? |

I'm not surprised that he wouldn't entertain questions about those comments. Barton is the Arsehole's Arsehole after all. |

Exactly. ![]() There's accountability for the fact that you can dominate a game for 50-odd minutes and still end up losing two daft goals on the counter-attack. |

I love how we are hunting like a pack of wolves. The minute we lose the ball. Everyone is after it. Minute we get it. Fast, flowing, pace , power. Straight through the opposition. And playing with courage and a heart. So many teams will be coming off severe beatings from us this season. It's such a joy to watch us. He's a brilliant manager . Absolutely brilliant. Love how in a few games this year, hanging in the balance , he's made subs that has changed the games on the head and we go on on to win. Probably the best I've felt about Celtic in a long long time. He's brought Celtic back. Who have been missing for a long long time |

Lenny “I was really pleased for Scott scoring his goal. Look, these players – Scott Brown, James Forrest, as well as the likes of Kris Commons and Charlie Mulgrew, who didn’t figure – have had a lot of criticism over the last two years. “They’re not bad players and what Brendan has done is just tapped into them again. He looks like he’s getting the best out of them again. “For a long time they were getting a lot of criticism from Celtic supporters which I don’t think was down to the players. “Who’s fault was it? Well, who do you think? One day I will talk about it but I don’t think you need to be a rocket scientist to work it out.” |

I really hope Lenny isn't coming out with this kind of pish. Ignoring the fact that, Commons aside, these players and others were pretty crap in his last season, you don't need to be a Rocket scientist to see that the club from the top down was putting itself in to a deep financial freeze until the Huns were back in some form. Assuming he isn't venting at Lawwell, which he clearly isn't, he would be as well getting his own career back to a decent standard again, rather than bitching about a cheapo project coach who was given the job to pass the time. Everything that we are doing now seems very different to how it's been over the last 3,4 or even 5 years. No talk of John Park or players being picked for the manager, Money being made available before CL qualification. You would think that Brendan was just getting the team back to the level that we saw in Lennys last season reading this crap. In reality it's a huge step up from the previous two coaches we have employed, but that's what happens if you employ an actual manager and do things properly. |

You wouldn't think he was the manager of Hibs. He does love a good chat with his media chums, the same ones who were quick to label him all sorts when he played and managed us. |

Whilst there's no doubt Lennon will have some interesting insights and probably kept contact with these players during Ronny's time, he needs to learn to shut up. Deila's gone. We've moved on. Same with Chris Sutton the other night. I don't know why a public free for all on Ronny is deemed acceptable now. There was no need for Lennon to say that at all, it's totally disrepectful - he's effectively trying to publicly humiliate the guy. He comes across as extremely bitter. |
