Personally I'm of the opinion that a merchandise boycott is not the way to go, yet. My reasons for this are that supporters are not all on the same page, yet. Some are angry with lenny some at the board some with both some with the players etc. This is not the same as the celts for change and not even close. We have to remember that the board have backed lenny, generously and the past 2 windows have seen the board spend more on recruitment than any other time in my lifetime. While this whole thing has been simmering away , leading to the ugly scenes at CP, I think that we have maybye lost focus on what we are angry about. We are angry ( I am , I should say) with the apparent lack of tactical nous and team selections displayed by the manager and the shocking results that have followed. I was, for one, actually quite happy with the board in the last windows, we kept our big players and added to the squad, whilst we also cut down the size of a bloated squad. No one was calling for lennys or anyones head then. So things have changed since then in that the players have underperformed big time. Quite how much the performance levels have dropped off, no one could have foreseen that coming. I'm as unhappy with this season as anyone but let's hold off on killing ourselves completely in a time of uncertainty. The 10 hasnt gone yet, granted it's looking further away than ever but it is not the be all and end all of Glasgow Celtic. Boycotting Adidas in their 1st season of partnership with the club will be a bad idea imo. It will damage the reputation and strength of the club in future negotiations with other brand sponsors. I dont want that. I want a manager who is tactically astute. Now I honestly have to say that I didnt see lenny as tactically inept as weve seen this season. Only last year he was delivering the clubs first ever win on Italian soil in Rome and the clubs first European group win. Who was saying lenny is tactically inept at that time? I wasnt , like us all I was haiing him rightly so. We must get a unity of type before hampden , theres nothing like a trophy for changing bad moods. For now though I will not be boycotting the merchandise , I will be behind lenny as long as hes manager and if ( and only if) we lost the final v hearts and fall further behind in the title race I might look at protests then. Until then I'm behind the manager, club and players. Something has to change yes. Our players I have a feeling will turn up for hampden and win the quadreble. We dont have the right to win every game and that we have been doing so for so many years is incredible and I think that is being forgotten here a bit. Every supporter has always known our run would come to an end at sometime. Just not so disastrously. We are stronger together and united rather than at war and divided. The season is still in its early stages and the league cup and Europe have gone by us. That might even help us in the title race as we catch up with our games ( let's also not forget that the scottish government handed the incentive to the rangers in the first place) but I would call for unity at this time , anything else is giving our rivals and enemies exactly what they want and there are many. A united Celtic is a powerful force a divided one at war will damage the club for years to come, I'm not taking part in that HH ☘
),so I'm not going to stop my relatives from shopping with Celtic.
