Wish we'd get some more coaches who were attackers, Kennedy, O'Dea, McManus, and Mulgrew. Need someone to work with the forwards like Kewell and Duff did

[@DavidByrne85]

Good point

[@GraemeTyrrell.]

Personality is very important in a coach and mulgrew is very likable

[@btgsyphon1722]

I really like how Mulgrew talks about the game. I feel he has in his head a really good idea of how he would want his teams to play. He certainly talks a good game and deserves a chance to work his way up the ladder.

[@jimmyjohnstone5878]

Mulgrew would be a good appointment. Scottish referees have been seen fairly regularly duck it up. That's why they didn't get a trip to Germany.

[@sonofscotland67]

Morning Hamish I just hope we get a better showing on Sunday and come away with the 3pts no slip ups ☘️HH

[@francisgreen8925]

Heard Charlie talking on another pod. Sounds a prospect in coaching. 👍

[@jeffray7494]

Remember being at Hampden in 1990 in the Aberdeen end with 5 thousand other celtic supporters the fighting that day was mental and lasted all the way home along the motorways was the craziest game i had been to .. #HH

[@Rasputin3158]

World class in every department??? Our worldwide search for the best coaches available has led us to....Mulgrew, Odea, Mcmanus, Kennedy, Strachan. Real tinpot stuff.

[@chrisd3211]

You got a point it’s the cheap option….everytime

[@theLowestPointInMyLife]

the tinpotness permeates everything we do at every level, and it will continue to do so until Desmond and Lawwell are removed

[@user-dg6hs7cg2r]

Searching through elite European clubs academy structures and ending up with untried Charlie Mulgrew.

[@btgsyphon1722]

Part of me is very cynical and thinks in some ways what’s the point cos anytime we do bring a good player through the youth system (Ben Doak) Liverpool or someone comes and snatches them off us before we can get them in the team or even get them to a level where we can get a good value for them. We should be putting stuff in their contracts where they have a certain value a team has to pay to buy them, say 5 million or something, or Celtic should be seeing their value and who’s coming in for them and make sure they always get what they think the player will be worth and not sell them for buttons and regret it further down the line. Another thing is put a clause in contract so we get sell on value.

[@lakhwinderpall9822]

Celtic need to show up Sunday.....Cheaton Beaton will do his best .....yikes

[@chrisd3211]

Might have known he will be desperate to help us drop them 3 points so they can all get back to talking about rangers but even if it happens rangers are in for a doin at Celtic park

[@williamotoole1210]

I would argue that some form of sporting director is needed. A coherent strategy ,from first team to the youngest youths is necessary,in my opinion. Hail Hail 🍀🍀

[@paddymitchell4995]

We need the best man for the job , not ex players, no wonder we get nowhere in our strategy going forward.

[@danielhenderson1744]

Got to love the imagination when it comes to giving people jobs by the way! Is this the big revamp and taking the club forward? O’dea and mulgrew! Very uninspiring, but I expect nothing less! The old bowling club mentality going strong as ever! Just watch who they bring in as head of recruitment! One of Strachan or lawells nephews no doubt.

[@padraigmcmahon6970]

Jobs for the boys, should be headhunting the best guys across the world within our budget but instead it’s ex players and family members being appointed, no wonder our youth teams and recruitment are shocking

[@justacotin]

🍀🍀--Hail-Hail--🍀🍀

[@gaddafis566]

No excuses hamish really poor stuff

[@greengo-sv2hi]

John Beaton should never be anywhere near a Celtic or The Rangers games due to him being one of The Rangers supporters. Also, Beaton the referee having one of The Rangers Supporters clubs named after him as well, could clowed his judgement when officiating? It is human nature to show bias towards the club that you support without even knowing your doing it and when viewing incidents? We all look to look for grounds to support the calls that would favour the clubs we supported. Again, its human nature to do this! And be unaware that we have made bad calls in regards to incidents that occur during match games, that favour the clubs that we support! The SFA and the Scottish Referee Association are aware of Beatons love for The Rangers. It's unfair on Beaton who will at some point slip up and make a call with his heart and not his head, again it's human nature as we all at times view with tainted glass on. We have seen the Everton V Forest game???????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Yeah, bais! Though the SFA and the Scottish Referee Associaction seem to think that placing Beaton ,The Rangers man, in charge of Dundee V Celtic? With The Rangers needing someone to take points off Celtic or a referee mistake that causes Celtic to drop points which would aid The Rangers, chances of winning the League. The SFA and Referee Association actually think this is okay? Well it's fucking far from okay! This is actually backwards and dose not help Scottish Football, SFA or the Referee Association in anyway way shape or form. It's fucking back wards! Every single person who puts Beaton near a Celtic or one of The Rangers games from now to the end of the season is at risk of being implimented in causing a team to lose or gain points from Beaton officiating viewing games with tainted glasses causing him to rule with the heart and not the head. Where is the risk management from the Referee Association as well as the SFA? Have they are gone on holiday and the Referee's are choosing there own games to officiate. As it dose seem as the SFA and the Referee Association have left there building and know-one is at the helm? It's not just Celtic at risk here the top 6 teams have it all to play for with the new European Football leagues in place. With every point for every team who are looking for a European Football place next season can be now at risk of a referee making calls unware that the match offical has ruled by the heart and not the head. Causing teams to lose a fourtune in revenue due to not gaining a European place in Europe due to a dodgy referee call? Why is the referee put in that position and who ruled in favour of that aoffical being apointed for high risk management games? These people should be asked by media outlays why they have made that choice.....This is shocking to risk a 80 million pound CL bounty for the league winners in the hands of a offical who supports The Rangers? As well as the other teams who are playing in hope of a European place ,but could be playing in vain, which would cause them finacial hardship. Due to tainted referees being granted highrisk management games. Were a ref gets to referee his boy hood heros football team or archrivals? Questions need to be asked? Shocking is it not! This is how bigotray gains oxygen and the governing bodies actually allowing this to happen. Is it just me or is the Fucked up?

[@marknugent9851]

I take your point, our officials are a bit :poop: however, World Cup? Brah, there are like 200 sovereign nations and 80 officials. Occams Razor, hear hooves? Think 'Horses' not 'Zebras!'.

[@xocsm_]

Our recruitment for staff is absolutely pathetic. Just pure jobs for mates, no wonder our youth players cannot develop

[@lubo25]

If there were no familiar-sounding surnames in the staff, people would say there's a lack of "real" Celtic fans behind the scenes. Club cannot win.

[@Mario101-rd2bq]

Celtic FC ekip tradhtar 🤣

[@bazzzzz6175]

Are beaton, robertson and dickinson the only refs left, aye?

[@lakhwinderpall9822]

Hail hail Hamish hows Aussie land..... Never been

[@davidmck78]

We're turning into a care home for ex.players.

[@lf67hh28]

I would only want those who have done it to be teaching our youth...no respect for anyone who never achieved on the pitch.

[@davidmck78]

@lf67hh28 I agree. But surely there are better options outwith ex players?

[@lf67hh28]

@@davidmck78 Not in our price range.

[@chrisd3211]

Scottish referees get their badges from Kellogg’s Beaton and Dallas this Sunday 🤔🤦‍♂️ One dodgy decision against us an we Celtic supports to drop everything an move to get these two removed they should already be gone from our game they both are biased they an onto of that they both are horrible referees even when not in charge of Celtic
