Just checked him out on the web and he looks promising. Develops players which would, given our budget be a huge asset. Saw a pic of him stripping off all his track gear and throwing it to the crowd. He'll do. Might fail spectacularly, but surely new ideas is what we need.

At least it's a new name and not the same ****s we've had linked with the job for years. If nothing else it shows the board may actually have a proper plan in place.
The teams from Gulskogen and it a wee town the size of Eaglesham, Imagine Eaglesham winning the SPL get him signed up.
http://www.eveningtimes.co.uk/celti...idate-for-parkhead-manager-vacancy.1401873690 There was a time when Celtic were considered a pretty big club, but I guess these days getting an unknown coach from the Norwegian league is the best we can hope for. Long gone are the days in which decent managers would have walked barefoot over glass for the chance to manage us, we've now instead entered the dark years of the board using the bastard hun omni-shambles as an excuse to not spend any money on anything, ever again.
He's a ****. I want Laudrup. Plus, my sources tell me, he could well be protestant. It's a no-no for this Taig.
Laudrup is the Danish equivalent of Alex McLeish. Takes over good teams, enjoys short-term success then as he signs his own players the team goes backwards. He's a ****ing pish manager.
On the face of it this guy looks like a decent option, certainly better than anyone else mentioned except Mick McCarthy.
Getting a bit sick of you always trying to pick fights with me ST. You'd be best to back the **** off. PS: Laudrup is a good manager, ST wanted Coyle
All of that sounds good to me and he seems madder than Klopp. Better than some dour bastard like Lambert, Moyes or Clarke as well.
"He is also one of the game’s intellectuals, a former teacher –" made sense up until then
To be fair, he probably is an intellectual. In footballing terms anyway. They let Jamie Redknapp and Alan Shearer on TV to give opinions FFS.
Aye , but this norweedgie might develop players an`huv a track record an` tactics n` tha` but he isnae irish fae ireland is i` ? Rats juice loast us ra league
I did pause to consider the issue of relative terms just after posting. Actually he sounds interesting, like Garcia. We need a change. As the old song goes " If youre Irish come into the parlour .. and manage celtic while youre at it "
