OLE SUPER WILBERT 2,475 Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 ALAN THOMPSON has been sensationally axed as Celtic first team coach.The bombshell was delivered to Thommo in a phone call by gaffer Neil Lennon.Thompson was last night said to be devastated at the decision weeks after the 38-year-old had helped the Hoops win their first SPL title in three years.Thompson was cherry-picked from the Newcastle United academy by Lennon when the Northern Irishman was confirmed full-time in the Celtic manager’s role in 2010.The pair had been team-mates under Martin O’Neill and Thompson was seen as a key coaching asset with Garry Parker and Johan Mjallby.It’s as yet unclear if the move was dictated by the Parkhead board or if Lennon felt the time was right to part company.Tarrriers reckon Steve Clarke will be his replacement.

RFC55 108,936 Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 This is to do with Thomson and Mjalby not joining his "conspiracy" is it not? Im positive both never joined in TLB's shite. Infact is Mjalby not going back to Sweden? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
barcelonabear 23 Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 steve clarke could work with the best teams in england, not a fucking prayer he will come up here He's been wanting to move back up here for a while now, even applied for the St. Mirren job before Danny Lennon took it. So wouldn't completely rule it out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RFC55 108,936 Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 I've heard things along these lines more than once, but I expected Mjalby to go before Thomson did.I do also know you can usually find Thompson in the Corinthian casino out of his tits and not just on drink _________________________________ Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HG5 11,113 Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 Raman on twitter confirms this.Rumours that Steve Clarke to replace him? He'd be mad to work under that monkey.The Liverpool 'experiment' dispelled the notion that Clarke had been the brains of the outfit at Chelsea, as was put about for a while.

TheKingObv 10,646 Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 'First title in THREE years'?By my reckoning it's 4 since 2008......Technically, they had the title until May 2009.So it's 3 years, but 4 seasons.
