Tony Mowbray sacked
- Thread starter McRod
- Start date
Sad day for Rangers fans everywhere.
We were just beginning to enjoy his Barecelona-esque style of play.
Whats not civil in that?
Confirmed on BBC: http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/c/celtic/8586352.stm.
No surprise given last nights result and the reaction of the fans after the game at Parkhead. He's been given plenty of chances and the team kept failing to pick the points needed in "must win" games.
Other sources saying Neil Lennon is in charge until the end of the season.

Calm down Cheets.
I don't quite understand, he has the worst record for a Celtic manager seen in years, I dont think 'civil' has anything to do with it. It seems pretty black and white to me.
Although quite sad to see him leave, Rangers and Celtic are the only two teams that we have that can even minutely hold their own in Europe. To avoid complacency on either part, both teams need to constantly be at their strongest...
...Mowbray could not achieve this.
Question is who will they get to replace him?
We will gladly offer you McGhee
..just as long as they stay away from Brown
On about a Rangers fan posting about it, we all know how the SPL thread went.
Not exactly had a great record managing clubs has he? Certainly doesn't have the experience Celtic will need to be get the title from Rangers.
You for real?
Have you never seen some of the banter between Liverpool and Man Utd fans?, some of the words and arguments that ensue?
Do you understand how football rivalry works?
It might come as a bit of a shock to you but football rivalry isn`t all about singing kumbaya around the campfire with hippie love ins.

I would actually dread that.
Seriously.
I`m looking forward the uber "shellick minded" canditate to appear from behind a 4 leaved clover.
Neil Lennon, come on down.
I take it you missed Rangers exploits against those giants of European Soccer - Unirea Urziceni
I'd rather watch a team managed by Mowbray than one playing the 'hoofball' exemplified by the likes of Stoke. Alas, good football isn't always winning football and vice versa. Unfortunetly for Tony, Celtic were'nt doing either.

cheets64 does have a point although at the stage of your first post I don't know if it was necessary, if we don't drop the pointless namecalling, baiting and other assorted pettiness then we'll be allowed no threads at all on SPL football. There is a rough outline of potential rules in this thread that I thought up quickly which it looks like the Dons would be happy with. I was/am planning to start up another SPL thread for next season with those rules in place.
As for Tony Mowbray - I don't think he's a bad manager but he didn't get the results needed and he's out, Old Firm managers don't get much leeway to make mistakes.
