From Pollok to Postecoglou.
BBC Radio Scotland have begun with a 45 minute discussion on the merits of Eddie Howe and revealed none of them know anything about Ange Postecoglou. Pollok is so last week, but the narrative remains the same. Big Dick is posted missing, another Dandy, Liam McLeaod seamlessly slips in to Host. The contributors are Tom English, Michael Stewart, Pat Bonner, Leanne Crichton and, Billy Dodds. BBC Scotland's Sports News Correspondent, Chris McLaughlin starts with a Sellik update, "I can confirm Celtic are involved in advance stage talks with Ange Postecoglou reference becoming the next manager of the club". I was disappointed, I wanted to know if his sister, Creepy Connie was continuing to oversee the mental health/strength at Sellik? Her 'Inner Buzz' has worked so well this last season.
Anyways, Tom and Michael launched into the demonisation of Eddie Howe. Michael raged, "two Bournemouth coaches have held Celtic to ransom on a maybe" and the former Sellik TV employee finished, "Celtic should have parked Eddie Howe several weeks ago. Celtic are enormous and shouldn't be dependent upon Howe's prevarication". Tom emotes even more, "Howe's late, late decision shows him to be a weak character". I was wondering if anyone else thought Michael and Tom were trying too hard to get comfortable with Yokohama time?
Liam finished with a flourish, played Chris Sutton's contribution from last evening's Sportsound, "I am hearing Howe's backroom staff having seen recent events in George Square and the fire at Peter Lawwell's house, they have decided they don't need Glasgow life". Tom reinforces it immediately, "I am hearing what Chris says and it's a good theory". Finding himself on comfortable ground, Tom bangs on about thuggery and anti-Irish racism. Scotland's premier Historian, Tom Devine took to today's Herald to dismiss current anti-Irish racism, but as we know the national broadcaster does not do awkward and inconvenient when dealing with matters Rangers.
As for Postecoglou, the paucity of comment equates to Humza's knowledge of Pollok.
In mitigation for Eddie, maybe his refusal of ra Sellik job e-mail has been residing in Dundee Chair, John Nelms spam folder for five weeks? Since Dundee have won promotion back to the Premiership, no one has asked if ra Sellik - Dundee fixture is still going ahead in the USA? John was happy being Peter's puppet, he would be even happier if Peter finally organised Sellik's post season tour of Japan. Imagine, how delighted all at PQ would be too? Tom, Pat, Chris, Michael, ................ etc could travel faithfully, pop into Yokohama and find out a smidgen about ....... what's his name, ....... him from Pollok.
