It has been a strange and weird week at Celtic. With the Eddie Howe announcement still not finalised like many supporters expected after Bournemouth’s elimination from the Championship play off, we are now at Thursday and all we have had from the Celtic board is a slap in the face. Twice. In one week!

Firstly they told the fans that they already had “value” on last season’s season ticket as they refuted the Celtic Trust’s suggestion of shares for season book holders. And don’t get me started on yesterdays announcement. Ah why not……… The board then had the temerity to ask the fans for more money by issuing a statement regarding season ticket renewals without the new manager in place.

A circus doesn’t even cut it. At least the circus has a ringleader to keep the clowns in check.

Former Celtic star Davie Provan was just as scathing in his criticism of the handling of the new managerial appointment when he appeared on The Go Radio Football Show“This is now become a circus. And I really don’t understand if there was a reason or financial reason for Eddie Howe to be in a position where couldn’t take the job at the moment. If there was a financial inducement that was due from from Bournemouth.

Who would you rather see return to Paradise?

“With Dermot Desmond, given his astronomic wealth, why not have just squared Eddie Howe up and get him up here to Glasgow?

“Because it’s just become ridiculous, and I really don’t know how the club can ask the supporters for more money for season tickets. They’ve already paid for a season where they didn’t get into a game. And here we go again. I mean where is Eddie Howe?! What what is the hold up?”

As the clock ticks to the supposed date of 1st June, which is rumoured to be the “big day”, it seems pundits are getting tetchy and impatient and fans are being taken for granted by the board. But here’s a thought. Has anyone thought about if it’s NOT Howe? Imagine.
