Wilfried Nancy is apparently set to be Celtic's new manager, he won the MLS with Columbus Crew in 2023 and the Leagues Cup last season despite having a bottom-third salary spend in the MLS. Interested to see how he'll do at Celtic, I really like his style of play. https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/wilfried-nancy-brink-celtic-manager-36249152

" One appointment has already been made with Kamonthip Netthanomsak joining from King Power as interim managing director. She will focus on commercial and operational aspects of the club and assist chairman Aiyawatt ‘Top’ Srivaddhanaprabha while he acts as interim chief executive."

Of course 😂

Ayew trying to get a second yellow?

Daka and Mavs having good chemistry right now

if Daka scores we're on the pitch

Boro commentators calling him Caleb Okeelay 😂 Heard them say Carransie earlier too

Wouldn't be out of place on a wheelchair basketball court and the players in wheelchairs would still beat him for jumping reach

NELSON IS FREED

4 shots on target, 4 goals and not even 1 xG 😂

Two things to take home from today: Honesty flag from the seat next to you Complimentary crispy coconut roll, larb-flavoured biscuit sticks and coconut drink

starting vs Juventus

There are still people clapping the players ffs

Didn't realise you could do this in FM24 I want to try it in 26 if it's still in the game 😂 https://www.reddit.com/r/footballmanagergames/comments/1oii6n9/going_back_to_my_long_term_fm24_save_and_being/

I don't doubt at all that Rodgers has once again proven to be a first class tosser (divisive, misleading and self-serving are perfect words to describe him) who deserves all the flak he gets, but for what it's worth, Celtic fans distrust their board (Desmond and the CEO Michael Nicholson) as much as we distrust the Aiyawatt and Rudkin calamity duo. Desmond is a control freak who fancies himself as a Billy Bean-style moneyball savant, and, despite being non-executive director and a minority shareholder, required that their board individually approve each transfer decision. Nicholson is inexperienced with it being his first CEO role, and has reportedly been absent in crucial times in the transfer market not answering his phone. They've been messing around with chronically lowballing other clubs when bidding for players until they finally pay the asking price on deadline day. They haven't signed a right winger because although Brendan (with his dreadful record of talent identification and all) had a final yes/no say on signings, the board didn't allow his input into who is on their list of targets to begin with and only go for who they think can be "good value for money". They ended up signing left wingers to play out of position after giving Brendan an "we buy these players or we buy nobody" ultimatum, while the South Korean winger who looks hopeless even in the Scottish league they signed a couple of years ago is somehow still one of their best options. All the while, only a fraction of the income generated from selling their good players and the CL run has been reinvested. I think it just finally clicked for Brodge that he had a perfect opportunity to preserve Brand Brendan™, because the board aren't suddenly going to develop a new-found competence when the Lawell/Desmond regime remains, they've just been flattered tremendously by Rangers' self-destruction.

I think he'll be dusting off his Spanish Learners' edition of How to Win Friends and Influence People and aiming for a job in La Liga

I'll give him another chance if he plays Nelson, Aluko and Evans with Page on the bench against Blackburn But I'm not holding out hope

Harrison Miles from Man City is supposed to be quite the talent too

15 touches in the opposition box to their 23 touches in ours embarrassing!

Thomas

Thinks he's at Welford Road with that conversion kick/drop goal attempt

Ricky already booked, oh dear

Fat Frank does what he wants mate winning 6-0 with 0.48 xG or being held goalless with 5.27 xG and there's no in between

The BLM movement pre-existed George Floyd (started in 2013, and in 2014 there were protests in Ferguson and New York against two people killed by police) – his death was just the straw that broke the camel's back in terms of it sparking massive protests and getting so much media attention, probably made easier by the fact so many people were furloughed/laid off during the early covid months.

Danny Röhl withdrew from the Rangers job interest too, I hope that wasn't because he saw the writing on the wall for Ange
