after that f***ing pathetic performance lets get rid and give ourselves a chance. may only have been a friendly but at home against youngsters being tried out for next season, that was unacceptable.
and before anyone says we don't have much money , Man u have spent a penny in the transfer market this summer

Never seen the game [as you might have guessed ], but after reading the reports do you not think that you are exagerating the severity of this defeat? Sack him for losing some freindlies after he won the Scottish Cup and league at a canter??

I think everyone needs to calm down, remember Artme......:

saw it on channel 5. made me laugh. they won the SPL???. good thing Man U rested 11 1st team picks. Van nistelrooy would have scored 6. nuff said

I think its time that 'tic fans started asking questions about the spending policies at Parkhead. I agree that its to early to start asking for sackings but all summer we have been told that the club has no money to spend, yet the players have been whored about the world playing to many friendlies for cash, we've got our most prolific striker off of the wage bill (love him or loathe him, Hartson was good for 30 goals a year), we won the spl and the Scottish cup andf we're straight into the champions leaugue! As well as this we've just released a new third kit and the dvd from last year. All this and so far we have spent around £1million. Where is all the money going? when are we going to see some investment in this team? You have to speculate to accumulate, and if Celtic dont get at least 2 new players in i think we could be the whipping boys in the champions league.

i'm assuming you all know i was just venting earlier and wanted to get the debate going.obviously we are not going to sack the ginger one (yet) but questions need to be asked. after a successful season how is it possible to put in such an inept display like the one against Man U?Is it possible for a team to go backwards?
Why were Man U's youngsters light years ahead of what was essentially our 1st team?
Why should we trust Strachan's transfer credentials when he brings in the likes of Camara (a Burnley reject) and Du Wei and then squanders over £2m (i thought money was tight Strachan?) on the diddy that is Virgo?

Under O'Neill , Celtic didn't just rely on skill there was also a collective mental steel and determination about the team. we had winners on the park . i fear we have lost that under Strachan.

I agree, spending pitence on players like Du Wei and Virgo is foley. We need to invest in some real competitors otherwise the team won't be able to compete. This will really give us financial problems.
