Garbage. There is only one thing that they loathe him for. Being a good professional for an opponent. To treat him this way is no different from the way the Hun fans are treating Kenny Miller. We welcomed Miller. We didn't care he once wore the blue jersey. We welcomed Beattie, Pressley, Mark Brown, Barry Robson. We are not like those idiots accross the city. There is one reason and one reason only they hate Miller. He wore the hoops and jhe kissed the badge. Don't be like them. We my friends, are Celtic. We are probably the biggest club on earth. It still beats me that MON was revered. He threw away two league titles. Threw them away when it was easier to win them and he had many times the budget the wee man has had to work with. If you compare apples to apples, Strachan comes out well on top. Claiming that Naka and Boruc were on the radar means nothing. How can we be sure the flops weren't on the radar too? You can't cherry pick just to try and justify a means to loathe Strachan. He arrived to a bunch of aging pros and has in the process created a team of winners on a fraction of MON's budget. We play better football. We score more goals. We lose less goals. We reach the latter stages of the Champions League. We have never failed to win the league under Strachan. What does this guy need to do?
Agree about him arriving to aging pros MON didn't do him any favors with the squad that was left to him.

He is more than willing to give youth a chance something MON didnt do enough IMO.

If he could shift some of the duds and bring in at least one more DECENT signing i'd be happy for the coming season.
