Oh ffs. It would be so nice to manage to hold onto a lead instead of conceding yet again in the last minute. Not that I wouldn't have taken 2-2 at Arsenal if you'd offered it beforehand, but our inability to play out a match is leaving us too close to the bottom three for comfort.

So I'm watching the replay (yes, I can't justify it either) and we're pretty bad. Like, we play like a team who were just introduced to each other.

I always thought the Europa League was the Thursday Cup. Celtic playing at 3:30pm on a Tuesday is at least something different.
The home and away legs against Ferencvaros got switched because of COP26.

Can't play on Thursday because we're playing that night and have priority as we're champions.

Can't play on Tuesday or Wednesday between half 5 and 10 because you can't televise football at the same time as the Champions League.

So Tuesday at 3:30 it is.

Any reason why Rangers couldn't have the late kickoff and Celtic the early one? Not enough cops?

Steve Bruce departs by “mutual consent”. That usually means a six million quid pay off with a clause preventing you being critical in the media.

Why would they care if he was critical in the media? If anything they'll want him to talk **** about the previous administration.

They probably just paid him off in full.

It’s very obvious that Bruce didn’t want to leave. A massive pay off slated as mutual consent with privacy clauses is what regularly happens with sackings.

Ole has got to go now hasn't he?

Unless of course a big comeback, but they're regressing fast.

No he’s here another couple of months at least. Our board are excruciatingly bad at reading writing on walls.

It’s not even a good time to sack him, there’s no obvious replacement. If we want a safe pair of hands to see us through the season while we look for a permanent replacement, well that’s exactly what it says on Ole’s business card.

There's an ex captain just on the market...
