Celtic Exchange: Celtic Football Club in Focus

Today delivered yet another incredible chapter in Celtic’s season of chaos, as Wilfried Nancy became the shortest-serving manager in the club’s history - lasting just 32 days after arriving from Columbus Crew. And if that wasn’t dramatic enough, news then broke DURING tonight’s recording that club legend Martin O’Neill is to return once again to steady the ship - for the second time this season. Add the removal of Head of Football Operations Paul Tisdale into the mix and it’s been a truly remarkable day in what’s already been an astonishing campaign. 🎙️ Join a full house of Tino, James, Paddy and Mif as they break down all the fallout in the latest episode of Celtic Exchange Weekly. --------------------------------- 🔗 Check out our Patreon for EXTRA content all throughout the week ⬇️ https://patreon.com/celticexchange Learn more about your ad choices.

The loss is his 5th in just 7 games at the helm and it now feels a very long way back for the Frenchman if he’s to somehow make a success of his time in Glasgow. Gone was the attacking intent that we’d seen glimpses of in recent games, replaced by a group of players who simply look lost under his guidance. The defeat rounds off a miserable year all round for the club, with the 17th defeat of the calendar year epitomising just where we find ourselves at this moment in time. 🎙️ Join Tino & Asim for this one as they rake over the coals of Celtic’s final outing of 2025!

Celtic head into a huge week with the chance to close out 2025 on a high - starting with a crucial win against Motherwell - before ushering in the New Year with a derby showdown against Rangers. Pulling off wins in both would be a major boost for Wilfried Nancy, as the Frenchman looks to rebuild belief among the support and guide us back to the top of the table after a challenging start to his reign. Off the pitch, the January transfer window looms large. It’s a golden opportunity for the club to correct mistakes from recent windows - and, just as importantly, to show genuine backing for Nancy. But will they act decisively? And will Paul Tisdale still be in place as Head of Football Operations to oversee what could be a defining month? These next few weeks promise to be pivotal for Celtic, on and off the park. 🎙️ Join a full house of Tino, James, Mif & Paddy as they tackle all of this and more in the final Celtic Exchange Weekly of 2025. --------------------- 🍀 Enjoy even more from Celtic Exchange - including this year's "Bag Of Cans" special - at https://patreon.com/celticexchange Learn more about your ad choices.
