Was speaking to a pal of Yogi's who was saying that Yogi couldn't work to Roy McGregor the Ross Co Chairman any more as he was a complete bampot. That's coming from Yogi as well

Paulo Fonseca next Spurs manager apparently.

Strange choice of contract. Will they be handing out a big sum of cash to the guy for a rebuild if they’ve only got the confidence to hand him a 12 month rolling contract

That’s a poor appointment on paper imo.

He’s the kind of guy I’d expect us to be looking at. When your aim is to win the league and get into the champions league groups I’d be expecting a higher calibre than that.

Another title for rangers next year!

Agreed. Very odd.

I think he’s a better fit than Eddie Howe though. He’s actually won stuff, for a start, and he sounds like a tough character.

I’m sure Martin O’Neill was on a 12 month rolling contract. Seems short term - but can work in favour of either the club or the manager.

Seems to be a recurring theme with their appointments. Lennon and Rodgers got 12 month rolling contracts too.

Car crash waiting to happen. Celtic are a complete shambles. Second place up for grabs next season!

Have you seen his record? It’s very decent.

He would be way beyond our budget.

Australian football is a poor level though. Not as good as the Scottish Premiership.

How about his record as international manager or in the J League?

***Jim44*** · 10-06-2021 10:09 AM

Rangers will be quaking in their shoes. Doldrums years for Celtic.

Is he a worse appointment on paper that Gerrard was?

We've really no idea how he'll do. Way too early to be making predictions.

Not trying to be a smart*** but can you back up that statement? How much football do you watch from over there?

Jamie Maclaren going from not bad at us to top scorer two seasons in a row over there

That’s all I’ve got though

Thing is, there is no way be will get 2 years winning zero trophies, like Gerrard did.

I’ve actually watched a decent amount of games since working from home. BillyHibs on here adds to the thread quite often when they’re on.

As someone else said, throw in the fact Maclaren has about a goal a game over there over numerous seasons and it’s really a poor standard.

12 month rolling contract highlighting that Celtc know this is a gamble.

Could be great - I don't know much about him in truth - but could easily see Celtc fall further behind.

I think they put all their eggs in one basket with Howe and ended up with this guy. A young, highly rated British manager who has managed at the top level in Howe to a 55 year old Australian who has only ever managed in his homeland and Japan.. Seems a strange appointment. Plenty singing his praises but that part of the world to Glasgow is very different. At least Gerrard had a bit of an aura about him from his playing career. I'm not convinced it will go well.

It could be Postecoglou that wanted it to make it easier for any club coming in for him.

Every Celtic manager has this type of contract apparently.

Or perhaps that moving so far away from home for him might be a jarring readjustment.

Fair point, it could easily have been him that suggested this. I suspect the former though, personally.

Me too, but you never know.

**CloudSquall** · 10-06-2021 02:27 PM

"I know Celtic is a true way of life for so many people and I know the demands which come with this position," said Postecoglou.

When I was growing up I had Kenny Dalglish posters all over my wall.

Another lifelong "Celtic minded" manager from the other side of the globe, who would have guessed..

***weecounty hibby*** · 10-06-2021 02:33 PM

Apparently when being interviewed for the celtic job the board misheard him when they asked him where he was from. " Athens" he said "I'm Athenian". Gave him the job on the spot!

Celtic regularly use the rolling contract, pretty sure Lennon's first stint was on that contract.
