Reckons he is in with a chance at Celtic if his mate gets in.

I like his comments about the Scottish league "you have a 50% chance of winning something up there". So your saying Tony that you should get this job even though you were crap in your last jobs, because basically it's only a two team league? So even you can 't stuff that up? Wonderful comment

If the guy had any humility he would go and get a lower league job as an assistant coach, conference something like that and actually earn the right to manager teams.

That'd be Whisky without the 'e' for Scotland my good sir.  Careful where ye tread!!
 
I've done the math and the chances of winning the domestic treble in Scotland are:
 
1/2*1/2*1/2 = 12.5%
 
Right, I'm off to the bookies for a fiver each way!!
 

How old is Leggy?  Is he 12 or 72?

brilliant story - Jansen has denied it and Celtic have denied it.
 
You know when you have those dreams that seem like they really happened........

All I do is make the stuff I would've liked
Reference things I wanna watch, reference girls I wanna bite
Now I'm firefly like a burning kite
And yousa fake fuck like a fleshlight

Adams is quickly becoming the new Souness. Not with a barge pole if any club in the land has any sense.

Thing that Mr Adams seems to have forgotten is that, becuase you have a 50% shout of winning the lot, there is a lot more pressure on you to actually do it. Celtic and Rangers fans aren't really renowned for the tolerant attitude to not winning things.
 
Adams is a mug, no way he'll get the Celtic job.

Apparently I'm apathetic, but I couldn't care less.

Unfair on Souness, he actually had some success as a manager. He took Blackburn up for example.

Souness:

A bit cheap i think. considering the way he turned his career around and what he has done for sports people with drinking/drug problems, he deserves more credit than that.
