According to the former Celtic captain, these supporters reckon that they know more about running a football club than the Celtic Board.

Itâs a hardcore stance in favour of the likes of Michael Nicholson, Chris McKay and of course the puppet-master in chief, Dermot Desmond. The Celtic support, including those appearing on podcasts or posting on X, know enough about football to know that the season-on-season loss of 50 goals from out total has maybe got something to do with selling Kyogo in January 2025 and failing to replace him in THREE transfer windows.
Broony talks about supporters wanting to spend ÂŁ20m on a player, presumably a striker, when one could have been bought for less than half the figure the former Celtic skipper quotes. That imaginary ÂŁ20m player might not have been a success â and if Michael Nicholson and Paul Tisdale were making the selection he may have a point on that â but NOT having a Celtic quality replacement for Kyogo clearly cost Celtic the ÂŁ20m in lost Champions League revenue when we couldnât score against Kairat Almaty.

Nor did the Celtic podcasters or supporters on social media appoint Wilfried Nancy, spilling a dozen precious points and a League Cup along the way in 33 disastrous days in charge. That was Tisdale â Desmond and Nicholson who told us that the Frenchman was always their number one target.
Speaking to Daily Record Broony had his say and heâs clearly entitled to his opinion, as indeed is every Celtic supporter.
âItâs not been a perfect season, far from it, but the manager and the players have found a way to keep winning games of football. So itâs about keeping the faith,â Scott Brown said.
âIf they go and win this league after all the pressure and all of the criticism of the board, the players and managers coming in and leaving, it will be the best league win ever.

âThere are a lot of vultures out there on social media and podcasts who think they know how to run the club better. Itâs as if people think Celtic can just go out and spend ÂŁ20m on a player because the money is in the bank.
âBut if you do that and then you donât make the Champions League then what happens? The club starts going into the red.
âSo everyone has to come together because thatâs one of the biggest things in football â togetherness. The fans, the players and the board need to come together for whatâs left of the season and then some big decisions can be made in the summer on what direction they go in from there.â
