Look, ive come here tonight, after much thought, just to say how sad all todays events have made me feel. I'm sad about the result, I'm sad about how this season is going, but most of all, I'm sad about what ive witnessed tonight outside Celtic Park. I was not there, ive just seen what you've seen on social media. I can understand the feelings behind it. Most of those attending have probably grown up with us winning everything in sight. Like most of you, I remember when we weren't. I grew up in an age without the internet or its bastard offspring, social media. If we wern't at a game we had to wait till we got the high(or low) lights later on that night on the tv. We had to wait to see how bad it actually was (or wasn't) call it a cooling off period.
However, we are where we are and everything is instant now, images, streams, emotions. I was truly shock by the scenes outside Celtic Park tonight. I thought we were better than that. Although I really think the situation we all find ourselves in with the lockdown and restrictions are a major factor in what we witnessed tonight. Young people, starved of their normal activities with no outlet for their pent up frustrations venting their anger at the ones they love the most. I'm not clever or a psychologist but thats a thing people do isnt it.
Obviously the SMSM will make a huge deal of it, and i'm not saying it was right, but just imagine you're 20 something again, and maybe a wee bit fucking pissed off. You can't go out, you can't go to a game. All you can do watch it on TV from an empty stadium from a dodgy stream cos you've no job and cant afford a 'virtual' season ticket. These kids have had enough.
Now to the matter at hand. For quite a while now it has been obvious to me all is not well between the management and players. The body language, the interviews, the whole shit show we have all witnessed on the park tell a different story. There has been a building chasm between the get rid of Lenny's, get rid of Lawwells, get rid of Kennedy's and the keep it all togethers, and its going to clicks. Well i don't think it's going to click. A change is needed, and i mean soon. Whoever decides to take on the challenge will be a brave man, he's on a hiding to nothing, but the situation is NOT irretrievable. The league can still be won. IF we can get the right backroom team in. The players we have, have not become bad players overnight, obviously ALL players in every team, are having to deal with Covid like the rest of us. Ross County seem able to deal with it, so its not that. The lack of desire and miscommunication between our players is the stand out factor to me. We're not reading the same book, never mind being on the same page.
I cant see NFL riding this one out. Thank you for all your efforts Neil, and I have no idea whats gone wrong, but there is something. Its sad its ended this way. you have my gratitude and best wishes. HH.
Over to you DD.
