Celtic Blames UEFA, Media, and Brendan Rodgers, but Michael Gannon Sees the Board as the Main Culprit
Previously, it was a routine for the Rangers to issue strange statements during their controversial years, leading fans to wonder about the motives behind them. Now, it’s Celtic’s turn to make headlines during late-night releases.
Recently, they released an extensive statement that felt more like a script from a chaotic drama than a clarification for fans. Supporters were left dissatisfied, seeking clear communication about the club’s ambitions.
Instead of fostering understanding, the response seemed to add fuel to the fire, with hints that manager Brendan Rodgers was partially to blame for the transfer window troubles, which many found perplexing given his contractual situation.
Critics pointed out that the club’s leadership appeared out of touch with fan sentiments, not grasping why supporters were upset despite the team’s dominance in Scotland. The board’s mismanagement and defensive excuses failed to resonate positively.
Many fans perceive that the growing financial reserves should translate into better team performance, particularly in crucial tournaments like the Champions League qualification. They aren’t necessarily demanding extravagant spending but wish to see meaningful investments in talent.
Overall, the recent events serve as a stark reminder that good communication and accountability are essential. The board’s tendency to shift blame rather than accept their role in the current issues has only deepened the frustrations among the Celtic fanbase.
