Ange Postecoglou’s Celtic crashed out of the Champions League last night, and it wasn’t very pretty.

The tie against Midtjylland was one that always felt in our control, until the Danes equalised in the MCH Arena.

From there, Celtic crumbled under the pressure. It was a movie we saw many times last season.

Another familiar sight from the horror 2020/2021 campaign, was the way the club dealt with setbacks, saying literally nothing.

Days passed after the disastrous defeats to St. Mirren, Ross County and Sparta Prague, with supporters irate at the lack of accountability on show.

Dom McKay made some big promises to the Celtic support

When Dom McKay finally spoke to the Celtic support over the course of June, he made some big promises about the future of the club.

He detailed his vision to make Celtic a “modern club” (Daily Record) – now it’s time to see if we’ll deal with adversity in a modern way.

The Celtic fans don’t want the walls of silence again.

We can’t bear the thought of having to wait until Friday to hear from the club, and getting quotes from a first-team player about “wanting to make amends.”

This season has to be different. There has to be accountability.

So keep your eyes focussed in on the Celtic social media channels today. Let’s see if they really have changed under our new chief executive.
