Record Sports Hotline

 

GARY RALSTON answered your calls as Hoops fans were furious at their team's Norwegian humbling in the Europa League.

 

 

 

CELTIC next play Molde on Guy Fawkes night and fireworks are already being set off around Parkhead in the aftermath of another Euro drubbing.

 

If Alexander Graham Bell knew his most famous invention would be used by Hoops fans to call the Hotline yesterday morning, he would surely have patented ear protectors to go with his telephone.

 

Marty McFly has been spotted out and about with his De Lorean this week - Ronny Deila should hitch a lift back to the more innocent days of 1985.

 

He has been told in no uncertain terms his time as Celtic manager is up and supporters rushed to unanimously back Kris Commons for venting his spleen at John Collins following his substitution in the 3-1 defeat at the Aker Stadium.

 

He has now apologised for his actions but things are far from rosy in Paradise at the moment...

 

Willie West, by email said: “That shambolic display against a team who are currently seventh in their league proves Celtic are going backwards under Deila. It’s time to walk, Ronny - and take the rest of your staff with you.”

 

Ronniebhoy, also by email, wrote: “Deila has had his chance and blew it. In Europe he's nothing and this can’t go on as it’s getting totally embarrassing.

 

"If Commons is unjustly fined for losing the plot I really hope they use the money to send the manager back home, with enough left for a taxi fare to take John Collins out of Parkhead as well.”

 

Lawrie McCall, Dennistoun, called in to say: “Deila has a worse record in Europe than Napoleon. Winning the league is a formality, the only yardstick to measure progress is in Europe and he has failed miserably. His defence is too naive and he can’t alter tactics. He’s an idealist, a Scandinavian Tony Mowbray.”

 

Bill Finlay, Falkirk said: “I’ve followed Celtic since the Scottish Cup final in 1965 and this is the worst team I’ve seen in all this time. Celtic are minnows now, the laughing stock of European football. Deila must go and I back Commons for his reaction - he was the only player who looked like doing anything at all.”

 

Pat Thompson, Parkhead: “I don’t blame Commons for his reaction as he was the only man who could have caused them any damage. Why was he subbed? Deila is being shown up as a nove in European terms.”

 

Michael Sheerin, Liverpool: “I’m raging almost as much as Kris Commons. It’s time those eejits on the coaching staff were told a few home truths. Deila has not got it and our defence is a shambles. The whole set-up is a farce. I can’t see us qualifying now.”

 

Terry Russell, Kilsyth: “I’ve never been a Deila fan. He was a cheap appointment. He always said he’d be judged in Europe and his record there is proving to be abominable.

 

"Teams attacking Celtic on the counter are like Christmas - you know it’s coming. I back Commons 100 per cent. He showed more passion in his tirade against Collins than the rest of the team in the entire match.”

 

Paul Trainer, Drumchapel: “Enough is enough, it’s time to get rid of Deila and his coaching team. His decision to take his best player off the pitch just summed it all up.”

 

Ian Stuart, Aberdeen: “That was an absolute sickener of a performance. It’s time Deila and his backroom staff cleared out of the club. They’re rotten in the Champions League, rotten in the Europa League and rotten in the SPFL.

 

"I can’t blame Commons for throwing a wobbler because he was our best player on the pitch. I can’t see any progress at all. We’re worse this season than last.”

 

Michael Polockus, Blantyre: “Commons should do himself a favour and get out of Parkhead now. It must gall him so to see him scoring goals at one end only for them to be conceded so cheaply at the other. Celtic fans should set up a fund and offer to buy out the contract of Efe Ambrose.”

 

Frank McFarlane, Tollcross: “We’re now the whipping boys of Europe. Deila and his two amigos on the coaching team should vacate the premises immediately.”

 

Bryce Wilson, via email wrote: “No wonder Commons was raging, I fully support his rant. Once again Deila’s lack of tactics and blind loyalty to certain players costs us big time in Europe. He should have been left in Norway with that defence. Give us a manager who knows what he is doing.”

 

Unsurprisingly, the club hierarchy also got it in the neck and Pat McKessick, Dalkeith, said: “Peter Lawwell took just under £1 million in salary from Celtic last season. he is responsible for appointing the management team and should go along with Deila and his two coaches.”

 

Ian Wylie, Paisley: “I’m a St Mirren fan but even I can see the three coaches at Celtic have been promoted way beyond their abilities. Lawwell and Dermot Desmond should have binned them after the Malmo defeat. They’re so far out of their depth they need rubber rings.”
