Hi everyone, I think we all agree the two CHs are horrendous all round terrible. For me Butland needs telling too. I mean your 6ft 4, start dominating your area. Also the midfield aren't contributing at all. assists and goals not happening. Start shooting guys. Hopefully the manager can do some good work in the window and try and rectify this.

{Ed's Note - Weejoe has posted a new article entitled, Celtic's Decline Was Years in the Making

He's of no interest to me🤡.

Don't like talking tic but if wee Joe tip iceberg tic in worse place originally thought. His honesty centres around tic board/lack player replacement causing BR jump ship sharpish only to be replaced untried/untested nobody. Sure some diehards going to equates Ange, but he had form, albeit totally different league. If WJ to be believed, strategically there in far deeper #### than we are.

Yes the three strikers we have will struggle to match Dessers numbers for G/A combined.
But the continuing big problem is that we have no goals coming from the middle of the park.

13 Dec 2025 06:11:15
Ac this has been a problem for many years. It was the same with Dessers an why his 52 goals over two seasons wasn't enough for some people. Not many goals from elsewhere. You need midfielders one or two too get 10 plus a season and wingers to get goals and assists like sima and Cerny previous years.

13 Dec 2025 07:20:29
Storm, yourself, me and a good few others on here did continually say that we should keep Dessers and should never have sold a striker who was proven and had scored 52 goals in 2 seasons 🤔Some just continued/wanted to constantly hit on the chances he missed, instead of focusing on the goals he scored for us 🤔God if he'd scored the ones he did miss big CD9 wouldn't have been playing with Rangers and would be playing in one of Europe's best leagues with a big club 🤔 He's a big loss for us, as of course is cerny and igamane ☹️.

13 Dec 2025 07:39:24
Completely agree with you both Strom and SWS. Dessers being kept this season would have had us a lot closer to Hearts and Celtic.
Who was our last midfielder with over 10 goals in a season, Arfield in title winning season probably.

Aye and Super Ally talking on TV midweek saying we should have taken a punt on Shankland for ZERO outlay - that's coming from Rangers record goalscorer too 🤔basically his dig at Thelwell and his major buy in Chemiti
It was a no brainer- but those up on high felt that Chermiti was the guy to take us to the promised land - - think its easy to see who had the "No brains" in player selection - but mucho brains in getting a nice thick brown envelope😉.

13 Dec 2025 07:55:22
It's a pity then that the board didn't decide to come onto this site and read your opinions on the matter then coops otherwise I'm sure Dessers would still be a Rangers player ☹️🙏🏻.

Blue Floyd McCoist also said he thinks that the manager should decide on signings despite knowing how that went with Martin and letting him make the decisions. not just on signings it seems but on deciding who to get rid of as he didn't want Iga or Dessers it seems.
Re shankland how many managers is it now who have decided against him. were they all getting brown envelopes when they signed the alternative striker?
problem with rumours (well libel actually) like that is that it gets repeated and people think it is true. I am sure the club would love to see the evidence of that. won't hold my breath.

Daylam Meddah linked on X. A 6 playing in ligue 2 at Pau FC. Can also play as a CB and Monza also reportedly interested.

Lads not been on for a while so maybe already been mentioned but just read an article saying we are interested in Aribo is there any truth in this? Better than anything we have, I know some say never go back but we have went backwards so far in such a brief period I'd take big joe back no probs.
0
12 Dec 2025 22:31:12
Personally can't see it mcmillst, but I'd take aribo back. He's got goals in him, can find a killer pass, good for getting the ball to him and being able to get up the park, something we're in dire need of.
0
13 Dec 2025 00:48:45
Please don't take this as an insult or a go but why do we always look backwards. Kent, Barasic, aribo, Morelos,. Find the next one not the old one.
5
13 Dec 2025 06:46:08
i agree ayrshire to some extent but you also want to have experienced players, Davis and McGregor came back in their 30s as experienced players and both had a positive impact.
Aribo has experience winning trophies and in Europe, each time i see it mentioned on here the more i think it'll be a good signing if true.

Welcome back mcmillst 👍.

Just watched the 3 2 Celtic game from last season and its noticeable how further up the pitch has deteriorated. Cerny iga Dessers we had at the end of thst game compared to chermito miovsky and Gassama. Wow just wow.
1
12 Dec 2025 21:24:55
I wonder when looking at affordable options if a player like Maswanhise would be an option? Or a player similar. Pace to burn, often looks a direct player who seems adept as a winger or even in a striker role.
1
12 Dec 2025 21:32:19
For me, the defence is our biggest issue.
You're right, the striker situation has deteriorated.
4
12 Dec 2025 21:58:21
Yep and to think we chased big Dessers and Iga out the door and Cerny got it tight for a ropey start before he found his form.
3
12 Dec 2025 22:00:59
do you mean Dessers who the fans thought wasn't good enough; Cerny who the fans initially thought was poor and Iga who the fans moaned wasn't getting played early in season after we had paid £2M for and why we had bought him. is the saying not be careful what you wish for 😉.
6
12 Dec 2025 22:25:46
The defence is main issue, get rid of loans and bring in at least LB and CB in jan, another two starters up top could give us a chance but if we crumble the next 7 league games it won't matter what we do as season will be away from us.
0
12 Dec 2025 22:51:51
You mean who SOME fans thought wasn't good enough. Fed up with this tarring everyone with same brush. Most fans I know wanted to keep dessers. This myth that majority wanted him out is exactly that. A myth.
7
12 Dec 2025 22:59:13
We are only 2 goals away from lowest goals conceded in the league this season, so it is not just defence hurting us, failure to score enough is also a problem. I think 2 or 3 quality players in the right positions will improve us considerably.
1
12 Dec 2025 23:10:58
I have to agree OT while some still slagged him off the majority I know last season were saying he'd won them over and didn't want him to go.
1
12 Dec 2025 23:18:41
Overall, were struggling because we don't score enough goals. The defense is fairly poor, but it has been for years. I'm not sure Cerny or even Dessers wanted to stay, and i'm sure Iga didn't.
The only way we'd have kept them would have been not chasing Clement and Koppen out the door when working under unbelievable circumstances.
But that's done now, I like Rohl and trust him to move us forward. Celtic are in free fall so we're after Hearts.
2
13 Dec 2025 01:42:22
Igamane worked his move and we got a decent fee, Dessers I was told was looking for a move also and Cerny was a loan that was always unlikely to be permanent,
1
13 Dec 2025 02:53:51
All great teams are built from the back here lies the problem. This defence is a shambles.
1
13 Dec 2025 03:28:29
A decent fee for Igamane? sorry, we got robbed in the Igamane deal.

13 Dec 2025 06:13:22
No Angus not all fans did want them out the door so the generalisation of your comments is wrong.
1
13 Dec 2025 06:14:20
Rosevale do you blame Dessers for wanting a move for the stick he got from some fans? Need to be context with the comments.
1
13 Dec 2025 09:13:23
The thingbis Angus, on a forum, it is very rare a person will start a post with praising a player as generally a post is created because something is annoying someone. So the majority of original posts about Dessers on here would have been wanting him gone, or complaining about him, but then posters would argue against that.
Problem is people only remember the original post instead of the numerous fans backing the big man.

I think last night that was the first time i had seen Danny Rohl annoyed, not in the sense he's cracking, but just in the sense he's starting to realise how poor of a squad he has. I really feel for him and can't believe some fans are starting to ask questions already.
There's not a manager on earth that would do much better with that squad, it's by far the worst squad I can remember apart from when we were down the league's. Sadly I think it'll take a long time to fix, as not even one player is cutting it right now.
5
12 Dec 2025 19:18:48
Boy blue, agreed.
I actually think we're lucky to have Rohl.
Here's hoping we have a good January window.

12 Dec 2025 19:58:52
We were really unlucky to get the two plonkers and Russell Martin!

12 Dec 2025 20:02:53
It's scary the damage that has been done to the club over the summer Bb.
2
12 Dec 2025 20:18:04
Totally agree. Some fans need to remejmber that we are so bad that in last few weeks we have sacked a manager, sporting director and CEO. Our whole management structure booted because they had failed utterly.
There is no single person who can fix that overnight. We are a project, I understand the frustration and seeking easy answers but that's what Thewell done in the summer and look where we are.
We need to get the right guys in to replace the failures and for me Danny Rohl is one of the right guys. He may not end up being the guy who takes us the whole way to where we need to be but I believe he will have a positive impact in getting there.
1
12 Dec 2025 20:51:42
There is no quick fix for this IMO will take a few windows as we tried to do too much in the summer an it never went well.
1
12 Dec 2025 21:06:42
Boyblue Danny will bring pressure on himself if he continues to play the likes of Aasgaard or Chermiti and not give Curtis a run. Last night gasama didn't take on the outside the fullback once yet Curtis done it twice creating decent chances also do we not have a young defender who can defend better than the 2 we. play atm.
2
12 Dec 2025 21:21:19
I actually spoke to a Sheffield Wednesday fan in Belfast yesterday. He couldn't speak more highly about Mr Rohl and he also said Gassama was lazy!
2
12 Dec 2025 21:54:45
Ows! Can agree with you to an extent, BUT what alternatives does he have?
0
12 Dec 2025 22:04:45
OWS could it be that he is he not playing these young lads to protect them a little from the carp that is going around. also Curtis was carrying a knock similar to Cameron was as well. the pressure comes form. media and fans and if we choose not to place it on him he will get time. #️⃣wasting my time😜.
1
12 Dec 2025 22:40:25
Agree re the boy from Balfron ows, that could possibly fix one position, what about the other 10? He's absolutely hamstrung rite now with injuries and poor players. Who would you have brought on instead of Chermiti and Aasgaard? I agree they are both poor, but we don't have anyone else, that was the point of my post ows.
I'm as frustrated as you mate, but Danny needs his own players in, then he'll be judged, from me personally anyway.
1
12 Dec 2025 17:05:11
Does anyone know why Cameron isn't getting a shout. He seems a very level headed young guy surely he has to be a better option than Aasgaard who has shown very little.
8
12 Dec 2025 17:15:45
Rohl said this week he's been injured. Assessed again before the game but obviously still not right. Don't know what wrong though.
1
12 Dec 2025 17:35:33
He's injured. Only on bench to keep involved.
3
12 Dec 2025 18:23:42
Kaiser allegedly calf muscle, he tore it just before we started back training, then tore it again in Europe.
3
12 Dec 2025 18:56:22
Thanks for that John as it's been really annoying me wondering why.
3
12 Dec 2025 19:07:54
The boy attempted to get match fit in June by training himself but over done it,

12 Dec 2025 19:48:32

So, Rohl is on his honeymoon period. Think he's going to get a long one. I get it, we like him. Getting credit for grinding out some results against Scottish cross who raise their game
You know Clement got results from a similar group of very ordinary players. Mistake losing him but.
we did and move on. How do we get shot of most of this dress to allow Rohl to get his players in. Every player on that park last night from Rutland to Miovski were not good enough and. I include Raskin. It's a shambles. It shows how poor we are in Europe. God I'm unhappy.
2
12 Dec 2025 16:43:22
At least we can now concentrate on the league.
This squad isn't good enough to compete in Europe and domestic fixtures.
I'd play fringe players for the remaining European fixtures.
0
12 Dec 2025 17:46:01
Id say Butland and Miovski are good enough, and a few others. Get some injured ones back, bring 3 or 4 or maybe 5 in and see how we go, the hard bit will be moving players on.
0
12 Dec 2025 18:50:21
although we were poor and we can't now qualify realistically the players will benefit from the experience for next year. also Rohl's first attempt as manager at that level so a free hot so to speak.
1
12 Dec 2025 19:01:39
Be absolutely crazy to judge Rohl with this squad of players. Let's see how January goes and go from there.
2
12 Dec 2025 19:49:51
U would think with Butlands age he would have learned how to kick the ball by now. Astonishing how bad he is with ball at his feet.
3
12 Dec 2025 21:12:34
Clement inherited a far better bunch of ordinary players than this lot.
0
12 Dec 2025 22:13:04
It is also ridiculous that at a goal kick we continue o pass the ball to him then he has to launch it under pressure. Surely better to get our shape, launch from the kick and if he can't be relied on to kick it out then get an outfield player to kick it up the park for him.
It can be worse than drawing the pressure onto an already dodgy and dithering back line by passing it to a keeper with two left feet.
