In this week’s free podcast, Andrew, Matthew and Ross pull no punches as they dissect a dismal 2–0 defeat against Dundee United at Tannadice. On a pitch that looked closer to Prestwick Beach than a professional surface, Celtic somehow managed to be just as poor as the conditions. The performance lacked structure, urgency, and any clear game plan, prompting serious questions about tactics, leadership, and direction. As one comment neatly summed it up: “Where’s the strategy? Where’s the game plan?”

Beyond the immediate frustration, the discussion broadens into Celtic’s wider struggles this season… a team “living close to the edge” and relying too often on moments rather than method.

On a less depressing note, there is a reminder of the club’s deeper foundations, with attention turning to the upcoming Celtic history conference, a timely nod to a past built on clarity, innovation, and purpose. The contrast with the present could hardly be starker.
