Celtic go into HIBERNation, as 12 point gap all but ends title hopes.

Wednesday night around 8pm,many of you,as I was, were probably sitting thinking that we were about to be on the end of another embarrassing and damaging result for the club, against it must be said an underachieving hibs side.
They flew out the traps and got what they deserved within a few mins and it didn’t look to be our night. Had a glorious chance to go 2 nil up proved fruitful,it would have been over.
But the glorious game of two halves proved to be just that. A dogged Celtic came out the traps in the second half and left hibs wondering what the he’ll had just happened,as a 25 mins blitz put the Edinburgh side well out of the running.
So fast forward to the game today, many would expect the game to be a formality,and given the turnaround in midweek,few people would have bet against Celtic completing the job today….well wrong,it didn’t happen did it.
Celtic had a few chances but again as we have seen a lot this season,chances were not taken. This cost us the league last year if I’m not mistaken….too many draws and dropped points.
For me,you can say what you like,but I will always back our manager until his last game,win lose or draw,but that doesn’t mean I can’t be critical of his position at the club.
Does Neil Lennon deserve to manage this club, yes. But have recent results proven to be too much for the park head faithful…undoubtedly yes. So outweigh the good and bad, and to me I stand by my opinion that he cannot prolong this underachieving for much longer. We could be so far behind by Xmas that it would be deemed laughable to even believe right now we still have the best chance to win the league. Never mind winning the league…win bloody games first.
Yes many of you will disagree, but we have really only one of two options. 1) stick with a manager and board that have underachieved in recent seasons,accepting second best as a success. In the hope that in TIME we can turn it round and sail of into the sunset next may with the league title…or 2)change the management team,give them time from now till jan transfer window to sort things out. Bring in new blood to get the job done,or at least retain some ground on the already serious battering we have taken in terms of league trophies is concerned. And hope the worst,most skint rangers team in history has the legs of davie weir at the end of the season and buckles dramatically only for us to snap the title away it the dying games.
In whatever shape or form, this cannot continue, Celtic are in a mess right now, and the irony is, we are all wrapped up in hoping the blue half of Glasgow go to the wall,yet we seem to be the ones getting buried deeper and deeper down the spl table…just a thought.
Personally I would like Lennon to stay and turn it round,but in reality I cannot see how this is possible anymore,even after 18 months or so in charge,we seemed to hit a little high point but haven’t been anywhere near it for long enough. Time for new blood in again. Neil Lennon promised thunder,and god we have it,with the big rain cloud above it. Time for some drastic action before his thunder floods paradise and leaves it in a state that can’t be repaired in time to win the league back.
Like I say will defend him to the end,but surely now the end is near.
