Chick Young suggests the "perfect fit" to replace Lennon

[Humbug]

Hughes would not have been the worst candidate.

Chic is correct, a perfect fit for Celtc. I have often wondered if this has or will be taken further?



McCafferty on former footballer and coach John ‘Yogi’ Hughes:

“I was helping out at Hibs at the time and Big Yogi, John Hughes, who was the manager and Yogi was a bugger for, you know he was into this devilment, sort of a laugh and a joke.

“He would say to me: ‘Right come on Jim, let’s get the bastards.’ And the point is he would go in and turn the lights out and start you know, the shenanigans, you know, a bit of kidology with them sort of thing, horseplay.

“It went too far. It didn’t involve myself because he was my pal big Yogi. It happened. He got carried away with himself one day and one of the younger boys - about 21, 22 at the particular time, Yogi had given him a right ripping and he came to me.

“He said, ‘Jim, I think I’ve made a blunder.’ I said, ‘Right, what’s up?’

“He said ‘I can’t remember the boy’s name now. I just had a right go at him and I’ve maybe gone a wee bit too far.’ He was concerned about how the parents and supporters would have thought about that.”

[Weesam]

Well done cheeko ho ho ho

 

[Blue 9]

I take my hat off to the man.
It canny be easy tae be an absolute wanker for all those years.
Well in Dung.

 

[Johnny Yen]

Actually, it's more like us appointing Terry Butcher.

Na, Hughes is a good manager who has won some trophy’s, Butcher is a dud.

 

[cvfbman]

How this auld yin is still in the game i dont know.. chick i mean and not yogi

 

[Cooper Forever]

Chick away doon tae Largs and sail of on yer wee boat, you are totally irrelevant and absolutely no one would miss you. Now F@ck off.

 

[DougieJones]

I forgot Chick Young still actually exists.

Its like discovering an old Wimpy they forgot to close down.

 

[bloodandfire]

I'm being serious when I say they could do a lot worse than Jim Goodwin.

 

[148bear]

I thought he died years ago.

 

[Gary]

Hughes would actually admit they were shite if they were shite and that wouldn't go down well with the tramps who need to blame it on outside sources every time.

Who says Chick is clueless?


Pundit Chick Young has claimed Celtic should have appointed John Hughes as manager before he was snapped up by Ross County.

Current boss Neil Lennon is under pressure after a run of poor results, with suggestions that the likes of Eddie Howe could replace him.

But Young feels Peter Lawwell and the board should have looked a lot closer to home for the ideal man to take the club forward.

He insisted on BBC Radio Scotland : "If we take Neil out of the equation for a moment the one man who would have been salvation for Celtic I think was staring them in the face.

"And the work he's doing at Ross County has proven that. " John Hughes, where Celtic are at the moment, would have been an absolutely perfect fit."

Hearts striker Steven Naismith was a guest on the programme and seemed rather baffled by the suggestion. He responded: "If I'm honest I don't think the fans would have been happy with that.
"I just think on the back of Brendan Rodgers, the success they've had, the signings they've made... that's what Celtic have seen.

"They've enjoyed the football, winning the trophies, arguably not in Europe but that's where they've been.
"For me if they're moving on the manager they need to move back to that level.

"That's what's going to appease the fans.

"If you then go to a manager who has mainly managed in Scotland and been out of work for a while, I think they wouldn't have been happy."

Chick Young was only tolerated for so long because he gave the mentally challenged majority of presenters on various radio shows a token Rangers fan to mock. The more he protested he was a St Mirren fan the more they piled it on.
I recall one show him bemoaning the case of Rangers and celtc hoovering up all the young Scottish talent but not getting them into the first team, then the very next week wailing that the supposed whizz kid Barry Lavety going down to england was a disgrace and Rangers or celtc should have snapped him up to keep him in Scotland.

 

[Arkanoid]

Brilliaaaaaaant
They thought they were getting Mourinho or Benitez and got the Lurgan Bigot, they don't even seem to want Howe and will end up with Steve Clarke. Know your place!

John Hughes, get him signed!! In fact Mowbray is doing well again!

 

[android]

The monkeys would have wrecked the zoo had they appointed Hughes.

TBF, Hughes was a good pal of Jim McCafferty so at least he would have known what was expected of him at the Pedodome

 

[roffey]

Poor Yogi just became their Tommy Wright, if I was him I’d lamp the wee shitehawk.

 

[Realger34]

F.uck sake chic, think of the sharks.

 

[alba73]

Surely mark mcghee or Stuart Baxter

The John Hughes FF fan club won’t be liking you right now. You’re sullying their favourite ’Tim’.

They’ll have to go back to feltching Brian Rice

 

[Kowloon72]

Going against the grain, but I agree. It wouldn't be the worst appointment. Hughes seems to be a good communicator. I have no idea how good it would be. You can never tell for sure.

It would obviously go down like a lead balloon with the Rhabids.

If theyd appointed him the day after county beat them, they'd be a lot closer to us now.

 

[chosen few]

I think John Hughes is a perfect fit for a club of that size and ambition.

And now we're just taking McCafferty's word as gospel?

 

[TPB90]

So out of touch its unreal. Yogi is no doubt a decent manager for bottom half SPFL sides but the bheggars would be rioting outside the stadium if he was appointed.

 

[gersin008]

I think they'll go down the Scott Brown route but I know little to nothing, though that is probably more than Young

 

[android]

And now we're just taking McCafferty's word as gospel?

The justice system did when he pled guilty.

Are you suggesting we take his word for gospel only on certain subjects?

 

[granda bob]

Thick dung always has been and always will be a dick.

 

[Carson's Cat]

This place would be a riot if he was ever appointed their manager, there's a strange love-in with Huges on this board.

Of course there is and, frankly, had Ra Sellick had a team of guid honest laddies who prefered fish suppers from the lang toon rather than a break in Dubai they'd not be in the pickle they're in now.

 

[Recoba]

Just imagine the wrath of the scum if they appointed Yogi Hughes

 

[Ambiorix]

I have a large collection of butt-plugs.

 

[TCWNS1872]

I clicked on the thread expecting Yerda Selzavon’s name to be everywhere.

 

[AlbyD]

Hughes is a reasonable manager and a decent guy, but he hasn’t achieved anything in his career that makes him deserving of a big job.

Yogi would be the cheap option which will suit the celtc money men.

 

[Ciro]

A John Hughes or a Mick McCarthy should be their next manager. Or they should just keep Lennon because they won’t get better than him.

They’ve no money for a rebuild.

 

[Humbug]

Tough keech on a doo's leg, he's obviously been brought up in the "Celtc way" and should be investigated.

 

[Humbug]

And now we're just taking McCafferty's word as gospel?

Give yourself a shake.

 

[Kowloon72]

The justice system did when he pled guilty.

Are you suggesting we take his word for gospel only on certain subjects?

Yeah. That's exaclty what I'm suggesting. Do you take the word of every convicted criminal that pled guilty on everything else they say? Are you suggesting it's impossible, or even improbable, for someone to plead guilty to a crime but lie about something else?

 

[Kowloon72]

Give yourself a shake.

Didn't realise you were so cosy with a 19th Century Terrorist peado. Apologies.

 

[oldblueeyes]

Chick Young is as knowledgeable as Gordon Dalziel . That’s the level of presenters in the Scottish game . Washed up non personalities who should have been replaced years ago .

 

[edwardcarson]

Fukin hell they would torch the house.
Chic really is as thick and about as relevant as a dog turd

 

[insanicdrunk]

Surprised he didn’t suggest Eoin Jess!

He's signing for us soon!

 

[Krissie]

Chuck Dung is an attention seeking has-been. Spotted County have had a couple results and used all the hindsight he could muster in suggesting JH should have gone to Celtic despite Celtic seemingly standing by TLB. An empty vessel of a 'journo'. Anyone seen Eoinn Jess ?

 

[android]

Yeah. That's exaclty what I'm suggesting. Do you take the word of every convicted criminal that pled guilty on everything else they say? Are you suggesting it's impossible, or even improbable, for someone to plead guilty to a crime but lie about something else?

It certainly would be a strange thing to lie about but I suppose you have to come up with some sort of mental gymnastics to ensure that FF’s favourite ex-Celtc players name is not tarnished

I’m sure if it was untrue the Hughes would have taken legal action as surely these allegations could ruin one’s reputation. Maybe I missed his lawyers getting involved. Did you?

 

[temperance]

“After the work he has done at Ross County” What 3 or 4 games?

 

[Speminalium8]

They could do a lot worse than Hughes. His playing career and his articulacy would suggest otherwise but he always gets his teams playing good football. For a non foreigner I doubt he has the required levels of bitterness demanded by their support.

Get it done! Season ticket sales would go off a cliff. That said Hughes actually comes across as a decent bloke with a solid work ethic and the kind of manager players would want to play for...more than can be said for a certain snarling snus abuser.

A dinosaur. He's woeful on radio, always has been.

A name dropper that every time he's on still squeezes in "what a night that was in xxxxxx, but that's another story", as if anyone listening has the slightest interest in him. Notice that he never finishes any sentence that he starts, as he jumps from point to point going down dead end after dead end.

It's truly remarkable that he's made a living out of it for so many years.

Totally agree.
If you were a young aspiring journalist in Scotland you must be wondering what the hell you need do to get a gig .
They are talentless clowns and when I say clowns they enjoy being laughed at , that’s the limit if their ability.
What I can’t understand with the equality laws as they stand just now at the BBC how is it still full of long serving , white, talentless low grade hacks .

McCarthy is Cardiff manager so that’s not happening.

 

[Beer Belly Loyal]

 

[psykal]

Not the worst suggestion.

 

[Krissie]

McCarthy is Cardiff manager so that’s not happening.

That must be hot off the press, he was only sacked from Apoel last week!

 

[Ciro]

McCarthy is Cardiff manager so that’s not happening.

Maybe they can get Tony Mowbray back. Or what’s John Barnes up to these days ?

 

[KensingtonBlue]

Reckon they will go for Mark Hughes.
