Having watched and listened to Ange today after the match I've no doubt in my mind he is at the very least considering any offer that may be on offer from Spurs.
I am not in the school of of thought of many on here who are accepting of the school of thought that we should thank him and wish him well no matter what he decides.
I am gonna be honest and say yes I am thankful for his contribution to date but I have to say any ship jump from him at this early stage reeks of self ambition and not the message he has sold us over the last few years re his connection to our club.
I should be on top of the world today and to an extent I am but Ange has deflated that somewhat with his lack of commitment I'm afraid.
Enjoy your hols Ange but please don't fuck with us .....disrespectful imo.
We’ve all seen this movie before. Ange is someone who I think genuinely has a great affection for everything Celtic.
We are one of the true giant football clubs in the world but the fact remains we are a massive club in a piss poor second/third rate league.
I spent a small fortune to take my old bhoy to see roger waters tonight but he spent most of it checking his phone for any fecking quote from the manager.
All this has the old yin on edge.
So I had to give him a shake.
Celtic will still be here tomorrow with or without Ange. We follow a football team but we know if your a Celtic supporter it’s much more than just a team. It’s a club which has a history and an identity to be proud of.
What make us ain’t a manager or a player, as long as there’s air to breathe, these guys will come and go. We are the sum of our parts and the parts are the supporters and none of us are going anywhere.
So what is there to fear?
The fucking freebie huns.
My take in it all is this…..
This guy ain’t the snake.
It’s well documented that he grew up watching English football with his dad and their team was Liverpool.
His ambition will always have been to get to the EPL.
if this was a shite English team like palace/Southampton then I don’t think this would be an issue.
We can all call Spurs whatever we want but the facts are, outside the top4/5 they offer him the best path to a top job. He ain’t going to the top teams straight from Scotland no matter what he does up here.
Spurs have possibly the best stadium and facilities in the world.
One if the worst atmospheres too.
I think this is one of the few jobs that will make him have a serious think.
He’s won 5 trophies out of 6 here and he has the CL if he wants another crack at it. But 6 games sandwiched in between plastic pitches and a weekly staple of facing up to anti football teams. Sure, there’s a load of dross in EPL but it’s the place to be.
All things considered, an ambitious and driven manger will likely take the next step in his career if it’s presented on favourable terms.
As for Anges antics over the last few days, I think the guys just giving us supporters respect by not saying something which doesn’t ring true. If Spurs are interested then he may have talks and he has a decision to make.
He’ll only be missed if the next appointment is shite.
He’s given us a team to be proud of and a raft of ‘assets’. If he does go, he leaves us in good shape.
But we will go on and who knows, the next guy may be a step up again.
Only time will tell ..
