Hello CT, I can only speak for myself when I say there's always hope, even in the darkest of times. Thing is, we also need to face the reality of a very difficult situation; all of our own making. For the past two or three years, maybe a bit more, I've not been too impressed with the running of the club, Sadly my worries seem to have been vindicated. Like everyone else I was happy to see us keep winning, at least in domestic football. As for my hope, well, if we learn lessons, ditch the "work in progress" mentality, and accept the fact that the new club across the city have actually improved, then that would be a good place to start. I still completely believe we can come back from this catastrophe of a season if our powerbrokers have the ambition to do so.Can anyone give me some reason to believe in a brighter Celtic future? I've totally lost faith for the first time ever. A lot of people saying it's like the early 90s again but, truth is, I believed it could change then and I don't now. Today's Pravda-like editorial on CQN sounded like the board were briefing us through their favoured blog-son to "get real" i.e. have zero expectations. Is the appointment of someone like Jack Ross as manager in the summer, with Lawwell remaining in de facto charge, really the best we can hope for? No CL preparation. No exciting signings. More managed decline. Bleak.
