In a football world where Australian managers are looked down upon and considered not good enough to manage in Europe, Ange has done a marvellous job at Celtic. Yet history now beckons him to be the first Australian manager to represent in the EPL. Give the man your best wishes and remember where Celtic were before he graced this wonderful club.
never thought i would say this, bring Brendan Rogers back, As a man i criticized him for what he did last time at the club, As a coach I could not fault him, and the players that are at Celtic just now, are a lot better quality than what he had as a coach, I think he would improve them just as much as Ange would, cheers for the good times Ange and good luck in the future🙂
One of my concerns is that if we went for a manager such as Moyes (not that he'd leave West Ham for us) or someone of that ilk. It'd be a total departure from Ange's style of play. So if it's a "I like my fullbacks hitting the byeline and getting in crosses..." type of manager, well that's Greg Taylor rendered useless! Ange spent 4 transfer windows bringing his style of player and shipping out guys who don't fit his style.... Going for a completely different style of manager now would mean that we'll have another huge turnover of players. If Brendan Rodgers hadn't done the dirty on us in 2019, then he'd be an absolute shoe-in for the job. He has a similar playing philosophy to Ange so most of the current squad would suit his style. We wouldn't need to ship out/ship in dozens of players. 2-3 quality signings and we'd be good to go.
Ange has done miracles at Celtic I’m gutted if he leaves but look at as his opportunity as a manager He’s got one chance at Spurs Like Eminen If he fails then he fails but he gave it his best shot He will never feel like he did at Celtic HH
Agree Anthony. He rooted out the debris, bought players in from a brilliant market from Japan (is going to make at least 50 million with eventual sales of Kyogo and Hatate, allowing real funds for four or five additional players, which we need if we're to improve in Europe. He restructured the playing style in a highly innovative way, creating a great "ride" for us all over two years. Seen off a european finalist manager, and destroyed Beale in all of the games that mattered. Left a team in brilliant sporting health, with some top assets. Not to forget his introduction of the most modern way of playing with inverted full backs and goals & performances galore. This is a team that has had an attaking, front foot, excessive pressing, ingrained by habit into the players! They only need a minimum of four quality players ( and the club certainly has the money) Striker, established creative midfield player, winger to compliment Jota, and a a powerful and pacey defender for Europe, then we have a chance to qualify from the GS. This is a fantastic gig for the incoming manager of choice; thanks to Ange.
I had a feeling something was happening, when Celtic announced there would be no extension to the Season Ticket purchase, so I think his Departure has been known for some time, the meeting with DD some weeks ago was probably the telling point.
Why? People like you are worth watching. He lied to the club and supporters, then left at the first opportunity he could. I have zero interest in this charlatan
Think the fact Rodgers gets on with lawelll and Desmond...he would get the job...the other side apart from his departure he has done great job at Celtic 😊
I’m fine with things …Knutson I feel would be an upgrade and think he would continue with similar style but with more physicality. Postecoglou a wee bit disingenuous but that’s business , feel there are better times ahead
Replacing him puts us back to where we were before he came.. No matter who comes in.. I was looking forward to seeing his plans going forward in Europe..
Does Ange go with my good wishes? Of course he does, the man won us five domestic trophies out of six. Would I welcome Brendan Rodgers back? Of course I would. The man was exceptional last time with us. 🍀
Three top four choices in order of preference: 1. Steve Clarke (if he can be persuaded to leave the Scotland job). 2. Bodo Glimpt manager (if he can be persuaded on the move). 3. Jesse March; who is available. 4. Graham Potter.
We as Celtic fans are fical AF Nobody knew him before being appointed He copped pelters from every corner He has left the club in a better position then when he came in Good luck to him The animosity is unbelievable when he has rebuilt this team from scratch
Steve Clarke for me -- all day! He's proved it with extremely limited club resources at Kilmarnock. However, more significantly, he's done it on the international stage. And all the payers in the Scottish squad have a huge respect for him! They have to approach him and ask the question?
Thanks for giving a Greek lady a very early Christmas Prezzie as I think Ange is the real Deal love his style of football ⚽️ love his passion and he’s left you guys with a great Treble Feeling!!!!!
He's also left us with a squad that is highly specialised for his system, the several of which arrived in January off the strength of his reputation in Asia. Every Celtic fan treated him like a surrogate father. He's quoted our all time greats in a recent cup speech, spoke of building a legacy & yet he's fucked off at the first opportunity to a shambles of a club like spurs who don't offer prestige but have the riches of the EPL & an incredible platform to jump off. Ange was incredible for us & I adored him but he's not the man of integrity we believed. So I'm done giving my heart to managers. They're getting paid to do a job and that's it.
If he has gone, and so often deals fall through. He has done a great job/is doing a great job, and we all move on if we can. The only hope for Ange, I hope he is not going to a poisoned chalice. And Celtic get someone in earlier. Feel it is to early for S. Brown, would be happy for Scott to come in as assistant manager. Hopefully Ange does not come back for a raid on some of the team.
I think I thought to fast and the Kennedy app would be wishful thinking and the romance of it but aye we need a Graham Potter or Big Ruddy would be interesting 🍀🇮🇪🍀🇮🇪🍀🇮🇪❤🙏
Ange going feels the same as Wim Jan leaving sort of but we move on give Kennedy the job or Graham Potter I never even thought of him till yous mentioned it but I think he would be great for us in Europe but leauge has tae be a must for champions league qualifying HH 🍀🇮🇪🍀🇮🇪🍀🇮🇪❤🙏
It has to be Rodgers, hes the best man for it... Forget what he done, sure ange done something the same , he'd be the safest option and still a decent draw..
Knutsen in for Postecogleu (really dissapointed he didn't stay for another year to try and make an impact in the CL) .And if we can't get him in then Moyes with Scott Brown as assistant.
Anyone wanting Moyes needs their head examined. Hes obviously a better than decent manager but he's not won very much which i can forgive but his style of play is dire percentage, physical hoofball. Getting Moyes means a complete squad rebuild & anorher squandered opportunity in Europe.
Pumping the Celtic badge whilst holding the trophy, then out the door a few days later. Gutted. Conflicting feelings about this, appreciate all he did but I think we're going to be back on a rebuilding stage if he takes players with him. Onwards we go regardless.
Horrible feeling today despite winning the Treble. Disappointed in Ange believed all his guff .legacy and dynasty crap. Only true Celtic people are us the support. The board better have a good man lined up
How often do assistants make for good managers? John Kennedy is a highly regarded coach Neil Lennon (twice) Rony Delia, Rodgers & Ange all worked with him and all rate him. So why on earth would we even contemplate John Kennedy moving out of that role? If it aint broke don't fix it. We're looking for a new 1st team coach, let's not add "Looking for a new assistant" to the list.
People keep saying onwards and upwards, I don’t see anything other than onwards and backwards unless we hit the jackpot twice in a row. The ‘gap’ would be no more
Anyone mentioned there apart from Rodgers need to move forward not backwards like we did before. He be there for a year and go as soon as another club comes sniffing
Isn't that the case with every manager though? I think Rodgers would likely come in and do a good job for two seasons and then leave for the West Ham job or something, which is pretty much what Ange has done and it's pretty much what [insert name] will do if they're given the job. That's just the way football has gone now sadly. The only way it wouldn't pan out like that would be if the new manager was a disaster and didn't last 2 seasons.
Couldn't have put it any better,we are celtic fans.not big ange fans..onwards to the champions league we go...as long as its not davie moyes..he'd destroy the way we play..potter maybe would fit..regardless were 8x treble winners for now..HH🍀👌
I would give John Kennedy the job the experience he has gained from all the other mangers and could keep the current players still happy and in love with celtic I think he would be great it's his time now he deserves it HH 🍀🇮🇪🍀🇮🇪🍀🇮🇪❤🙏
get Rodgers back would be a seamless transition. Don't blame Brendan for his European record...that's just a reality of the economy of the times... the disparity between what the board are prepared to pay for players and what English and European clubs are prepared to pay for players. As for being an attractive proposition...any manager who knows Celtic will know they won't break the bank to strengthen the squad. We didn't strengthen it one bit last summer. Spent all the money on 2 loan players we already had...Mooy on a free was a dud, only played 2 months of decent football and now broken...and Bernabei who any incoming manager will see out the door shortly after arriving. Siegrist never played.
Spurs want to take Kyogo, John Kennedy and Gavin Strachan with Ange. Whoever comes in must keep the We never stop approach and recruit wisely. That means Knutson or Potter for me and they must improve our European form…
If this is all but sealed my next question is who is Ange going to try and take with him and what price tag? KYOGO? CCV back to Spurs for 20 mill would be hilarious.
Our success always follows with bad news,these English clubs need to do one an keep their hands off our managers.. ah well the management may come an go,but us true to the heart fans will always be here,,thanks ange but if you need to go then good luck..hh🏴🇮🇪🏴🇮🇪🏴🇮🇪
I honestly do not see Potter being successful at Celtic. I could be wrong but something telling me he'd be a failure as he was at Chelsea. Brendan Rodgers would be the best replacement for me.
BREAKING NEWS: All the Johnny come lately plastic Australian fans who suddenly became celtic fans when Ange joined have now left the building. They'll put the key through the letterbox.
This team he has built might have a treble but they have done jack shit in europe. Being left with an untested team for europa/cl games isnt exactly something im buzzing about.
Only when you're dealing with women Mary. What makes great players is the desire to prove yourself at the highest level, it's the same with managers, who also have a career lifespan. He could have stayed and been comfortable till he was 60, but it would have been too late to test himself in the twilight of his career. The right opportunity arrived, and who knows when the next may arrive. He has never just turned his back and walked away, he is still connected to all the clubs he's coached at. There's a bit of Anges heart left where ever he's been.
You joking? I love JK but he has zero managerial experience & you want to give him the keys when the club has been on the ascendancy & we have guaranteed CL football. He needs to go and earn his stripes then come back.
Who? Another chest thumper. Nothing unique about treble. Good taken out of it by Postecoglu. ONeills treble in 00/01 best since Lions. Huns had a decent team. ONeill got to UEFA Cup final. Postecoglu could have built something great.

Ange has done miracles at Celtic
I’m gutted if he leaves but look at as his opportunity as a manager
He’s got one chance at Spurs
Like Eminen
If he fails then he fails but he gave it his best shot
He will never feel like he did at Celtic HH
What miracles?? it's our 5th treble in 7 years and didn't win a game in Europe where are these miracles ???

knutsen watched his side yesterday very impressive
Yeah the other painful in this thing is that I don't want to be supporting spurs but I want Ange to do well.
Why? People like you are worth watching. He lied to the club and supporters, then left at the first opportunity he could. I have zero interest in this charlatan
Think the fact Rodgers gets on with lawelll and Desmond...he would get the job...the other side apart from his departure he has done great job at Celtic 😊
He fell out with the board massively, blaming them (correctly) for not backing him in the transfer market
I’m fine with things …Knutson I feel would be an upgrade and think he would continue with similar style but with more physicality. Postecoglou a wee bit disingenuous but that’s business , feel there are better times ahead

Ange came across as an honourable and decent honest person, that went out the window when he started Skulking around White Hart Lane several weeks ago
We as Celtic fans are fical AF
Nobody knew him before being appointed
He copped pelters from every corner
He has left the club in a better position then when he came in
Good luck to him
The animosity is unbelievable when he has rebuilt this team from scratch
@@anthonypoole6507 People are upset that he blatantly lied on several occasions
Steve Clarke for me -- all day! He's proved it with extremely limited club resources at Kilmarnock. However, more significantly, he's done it on the international stage. And all the payers in the Scottish squad have a huge respect for him! They have to approach him and ask the question?
Thanks for giving a Greek lady a very early Christmas Prezzie as I think Ange is the real Deal love his style of football ⚽️ love his passion and he’s left you guys with a great Treble Feeling!!!!!
It was fun while it lasted…I’m in Greece enjoying the sun, enjoying bein a Celtic fan too🏆🏆🏆💚😘
He's also left us with a squad that is highly specialised for his system, the several of which arrived in January off the strength of his reputation in Asia.

media: how do feel about ange leaving?
celtics NEW manager: im bitterly disappointed! what a team!
I think I thought to fast and the Kennedy app would be wishful thinking and the romance of it but aye we need a Graham Potter or Big Ruddy would be interesting 🍀🇮🇪🍀🇮🇪🍀🇮🇪❤🙏
Ange going feels the same as Wim Jan leaving sort of but we move on give Kennedy the job or Graham Potter I never even thought of him till yous mentioned it but I think he would be great for us in Europe but leauge has tae be a must for champions league qualifying HH 🍀🇮🇪🍀🇮🇪🍀🇮🇪❤🙏
I don’t think Dermott Desmond would look the ground Rogers walked on after his back door departure
Ange has left but Ryan is happy he has something to talk about 😂😂😂
It has to be Rodgers, hes the best man for it... Forget what he done, sure ange done something the same , he'd be the safest option and still a decent draw..
celtic are a bigger club than spurs but are in a much smaller league
Knutsen in for Postecogleu (really dissapointed he didn't stay for another year to try and make an impact in the CL) .And if we can't get him in then Moyes with Scott Brown as assistant.
Anyone wanting Moyes needs their head examined.

You've done jack schitt in Europe since 1967. What makes you think that'll change now ffs?
Rogers is a certainty
Pumping the Celtic badge whilst holding the trophy, then out the door a few days later. Gutted.
Conflicting feelings about this, appreciate all he did but I think we're going to be back on a rebuilding stage if he takes players with him.
Onwards we go regardless.
Yeah, this really feels like watching an extra beautiful toddler full of so much potential getting hit by a Brinks truck.
First time I have heard of a rat deserting a Floating ship
Horrible feeling today despite winning the Treble. Disappointed in Ange believed all his guff .legacy and dynasty crap. Only true Celtic people are us the support. The board better have a good man lined up

We're looking for a new 1st team coach, let's not add "Looking for a new assistant" to the list.
Kevin Muscat knows Angeball inside and out.
People keep saying onwards and upwards, I don’t see anything other than onwards and backwards unless we hit the jackpot twice in a row. The ‘gap’ would be no more
question will he take some players with him including kennedy others from the background staff😢
They're saying Kennedy & Strachan will join him and Kyogo for £30M or so.
At this moment in time it's looking like BR long as we get manager in quick dont want another Howe saga
has anyone considered who Th man from Dublin wants?
Give Kennedy the job he's the one that's been here and always here
Amen
Anyone mentioned there apart from Rodgers need to move forward not backwards like we did before. He be there for a year and go as soon as another club comes sniffing

Reading Kyogo for £30m is almost guaranteed. Ange also wants John Kennedy & Gordon Strachan to join him, all of which require Spurs to compensate.
If Ange takes Kyogo this summer he's dead to me
Harry Kewell
Wish you well Ange, but jeez mate! Knutsen best fit.
CalMac for manager. Continue from where Ange left off.
Scott Brown is bookie favourite. Surely Rogers is a dead rubber
Can we just put it out there that kjetil Knutson is out there as a manager, the only manager that out witted Ange at Celtic.
Also been consistently good in all competitions
Nobody is bigger than the club, we move on like always
Celtic is finished now that Ange has gone.
@johntate5050 only starting a new domination again bro
Our success always follows with bad news,these English clubs need to do one an keep their hands off our managers.. ah well the management may come an go,but us true to the heart fans will always be here,,thanks ange but if you need to go then good luck..hh🏴🇮🇪🏴🇮🇪🏴🇮🇪
ange could be another nuno would not want levy as my boss sacked mourinho and he got them to a cup final
It’s silly not to consider a Rogers return, he knows the league & would be the least disruptive option
Luis Enrique !?!
I honestly do not see Potter being successful at Celtic. I could be wrong but something telling me he'd be a failure as he was at Chelsea. Brendan Rodgers would be the best replacement for me.
Marcelo Biesla ...
How about Van Bratwurst, revenge on the huns 😂
BREAKING NEWS: All the Johnny come lately plastic Australian fans who suddenly became celtic fans when Ange joined have now left the building. They'll put the key through the letterbox.
I think we're all missing the obvious choice here, bhoys n ghirls.
ZLATAN! 😂
does Ange realize that Spurs usually only win when the year is 01?
Graham Potter for me plays gd football never giving a chance a Chelsea, has done well in Europe with smaller team
Celtic want a experienced manager to do well in europe
Still delusional about Europe 🤣
All this moral fibre patter and made his own bed patter.
The most entitled fan base in the world man.
This team he has built might have a treble but they have done jack shit in europe. Being left with an untested team for europa/cl games isnt exactly something im buzzing about.
Why are you surprised money always win
Also ambition
Only when you're dealing with women Mary. What makes great players is the desire to prove yourself at the highest level, it's the same with managers, who also have a career lifespan.

There's a bit of Anges heart left where ever he's been.
pmsl @ bitter celtic fans who claim Ange just left for money.
except for henrik larsson
Then don’t lie to the club and supporters. Ange is no better than Rogers, absolute scumbag.
Have you checked the showers,maybe lawell is in there interviewing,you just dont know,hahahahajahaha.
The Assistant Kennedy should be given a chance before he is snapped up. Also ANGE POSTECOGLOU will say to the club who has the best chance of success.
I'd love Kennedy to get a shot & add continuity.
You joking? I love JK but he has zero managerial experience & you want to give him the keys when the club has been on the ascendancy & we have guaranteed CL football.
He needs to go and earn his stripes then come back.
Who? Another chest thumper. Nothing unique about treble. Good taken out of it by Postecoglu. ONeills treble in 00/01 best since Lions. Huns had a decent team. ONeill got to UEFA Cup final. Postecoglu could have built something great.
Time to stop singing about mangers. Very disappointed because we were building something. How many players will go as well ? .
Used Celtic as a stepping stone , wish him well ? Naaaa
he left us like the rangers rat that he is. like gerard and rodgers
Ange the rat , sacked after 6 months of new season at spuds
Hey guys sorry that spurs has stolen your Angie off you guys
Not such a happy monday today ,Potter or Knudsen for me
Ange is just as big of a snake as Brendan Rodgers
