For this weeks free podcast, Harry is joined by Matthew & Keith to pick through the aftermath of Celtic’s extraordinary European collapse against LASK and the response at Celtic Park in the weekend win over Falkirk. Despite the anger surrounding the Champions League exit, the backing for the team provides a reminder of the difference between supporting Celtic and being satisfied with how the club is being run. The guys assess the Falkirk performance, the early impressions of Celtic’s new arrivals and where the squad remains worryingly short, with left-back, defensive midfield and goalkeeper among the areas discussed as the transfer deadline approaches.The conversation then widens to the bigger question of what Celtic do next. With Europa League football now the reality, should the club reset and set an ambitious target for the competition rather than dwell on Champions League failure? There’s discussion of recruitment, Martin O’Neill, the coming games with Rangers and the continuing frustration at a club sitting on considerable resources while investment is needed both on and off the pitch. From the ageing Celtic Park experience to the inadequate facilities currently provided for Celtic Women, the question running through the episode is less about one disastrous European night and more about whether Celtic have the ambition and strategy to make the most of the position they are in.Enjoy…Apple podcastsSpotifyAmazonPlayer.fmSpreakerAudioboomYoutube
