I'd be very surprised if Strachan is there next season, very very surprised.

If Strachan can pull back the league and win it, then it'll be one of the best achievements of a Celtic manager since Seville since he's behind and the team is playing so poorly against a Rangers team that's brimming with confidence.
If he doesn't win the league, I can see it being curtains for the wee fella. | |

Nah I think if he wins the league he's gonna walk and if he doesn't he'll walk with a friendly push to get him started. I think you can tell from his attitude and manner that he' s unhappy. He's always been about him and his team in a very insular way, with his comments to the press and the like you see he has an "us against the world" attitude which although brilliant for developing team spirit is a nightmare when one or two players break away, I think that's happened and he wants out.
He wants to go out winning but he's fed up with being manager of Glasgow Celtic.
It's my take on it, time will mock or vindicate me.

He should leave and try and find a set of fans that would appreciate him. Even if he wins the league I think he's sick of the fans on his back for every little thing.

He's taking Everton for consistently mediocre to pushing Liverpool all the way for a CL place. south in my book. He's changed Everton over the last two years from unattractive and difficult to beat to a real footballing side. On top of showing that players from the english leagues (Cahill, Lescott) can step up. I think those two would get in all but two or three teams in the prem week in week out. | |

The ball, it would appear, is in the Everton board's court, and with the television money, UEFA Cup money and revenue for finishing in the top ten in the EPL it doesn't look too good for him coming north.
It'd be fantastic for the SPL if we could attract a manager of his calibre up here though, supporters of every team would have to admit that. | |

Jim McInally's not on a contract at East Stirling. Please fucking take him Celtic. PLEASE!
I could do with a laugh. I could do with seeing Celtic get relegated too.
