Paul Lambert rules himself out the celtic job

[uneasydaz]

Paul Lambert has ruled himself out of the vacant Celtic job.

The Hoops legend says he doesn’t want to tarnish his reputation with the club's support.

The Ipswich Town manager has been tipped with the post, and has been previously interviewed for the No.1 role at Parkhead.

He told Sky Sports: "I played for eight years, but I left the Glasgow scene a long time ago.

"That's not my life anymore. I don't want to tarnish the good feelings I have with the Celtic fans.

“We won a hell of a lot, stopping Rangers winning Ten In A Row in 1998. That was an incredible achievement."

 

[WinkieWATP]

I rule myself out aswell.

 

[Blue Phoenix]

I put on the record I'm ruling myself out too. Has Billy Davies ruled himself out yet?

 

[Craigie]

"The Hoops legend says he doesn’t want to tarnish his reputation with the club's support."

Basically admitting he is a shite manager and not up to the task. Can't beat positivity.

 

[S English]

I'd like to formally request I am considered for the role, I feel I would have a lot to bring to the downfall that Neic started

 

[Corkinator]

I’ve just ruled myself out of the Celtic, Southampton, Real Madrid and Netherlands jobs

 

[BillySimpson]

I'm getting worried that Gerrard hasn't ruled himself out yet

 

[Rangerscoverboy]

haha...I have a client willing to drive him to Glasgow

 

[der_hammer10]

I’ve ruled myself out of porking Scarlett Johannson tonight.

I know it’s not really news, but I’d like to tell you all anyway.

 

[dcbear]

Finally some good news for Celtic fans after a hard week.

 

[lwl]

Ha Ha Ha

Doesn't want anything to do with the cloven-hoofed bheasts, more like. When it all went pear shaped with Lambert at the helm (which wouldn't take long, I would imagine), he would be ran out of town even quicker than Lennon was, before you could say "not sellik-minded".

Larsson will be along soon, with the same kind of excuse.

As a nice footnote, it's hilarious that Lambert's best memory from his 8 years at the piggery is all about Rangers.

 

[flootbon]

It's most gratifying to know Lambert was on the bench at Fir Park during Helicopter Sunday.

 

[stein and johnston]

Gerrard will sleep easy tonight knowing that.

 

[Sron Gorm]

Please, please, please reconsider.

 

[KensingtonBlue]

Disappointing. He's the most miserable man in the world. Would have loved him to end up there.

 

[Salamanca]

He's ruled himself out as he is shit scared of gerrard not to mention a shit manager

 

[Salamanca]

Disappointing. He's the most miserable man in the world. Would have loved him to end up there.

Steve Clarke will fight him for that title

 

[BucksBear]

Who wants to sip from the poison chalice?

 

[AlohaBear]

Ipswich has always been my 'English team' since I was a kid.

I'm absolutely gutted he's ruled himself out! Him going to Celtic would have been a dream outcome for both us and Ipswich.

 

[cammyranger]

I’ve just ruled myself out from shagging Dua Lipa.

 

[Leopold]

I can’t decide whether he’s admitting he’s a shite manager or giving a diplomatic answer because he wouldn’t touch the job with a barge pole

 

[UlsterScotGer]

He’ll stick to tarnishing his reputation with the Ipswich fans.

 

[Dave Angell]

Somewhere, a few miles from the East end of Glasgow, Mark McGhee is sitting in his car, waiting, patiently waiting, and has just punched the air in delight at hearing this news ........

Shitebag mumbling twat!

 

[Paulie Walnuts]

What a shame.
Genuinely, he would have been great at the tims - for us!

Johnny Mumble - nobody has a clue what he's saying.
His teams play exactly like his personality.

Hopefully they can convince him to change his mind.

 

[isawthat]

I have been told in confidence that Mark McGhee has applied for the job, but I promised not to tell anybody.

 

[Jase]

I rule myself out aswell.

I'd love the job.

 

[Blue Phoenix]

Pity. He's missed the opportunity to find his missing teeth.

 

[RFCStu]

It would have been a job he could have gotten his teeth into if he had any.

 

[Macdonsj]

damn
that would have been funny

worried about his reputation with Yahoos
whilst simultaneously breaking their party line of "us winning the league is no big deal"

 

[WinkieWATP]

I'd love the job.

I just don’t believe as hard as I’d try I’d make as much of an arse of it as the last guy.

 

[Johnny Yen]

Give it Giggsy to the end of season.

 

[DoubleWhopper]

Cowardice of the highest order. Clearly it would be a step up from Ipswich but he's scared of the challenge.

There is, however, another manager in the same league who would jump the chance.

Steve Evans, come on down.

 

[Ambiorix]

Ipswich fans distraught.

 

[vinnie]

oh Paul, that's real shame. In other words he couldn't hack it!

If anyone sees a job advert for Neic's old role, let me know. I think I could do a really good job there I would consider doing it for free too as long as my backroom staff were brought in with me.

 

[Don Vito]

Ipswich Town fans hopes dashed. Local taxi firm misses out on huge fare. Norwich goes wild.

 

[Russ H]

I would like to go on record and rule myself out as well - 'After playing pub league football in the 80's and '90s and a bit of football manager I feel I would be ideally placed to manage Celtc but due to me not giving 2 fecks about them I feel I do not want to tarnish my reputation with my mates so whoever their next head honcho is you can ram your offer if you were going to headhunt me'

 

[ChrisWoods]

Really interesting comment about not wanting to tarnish his reputation with fans, could be read 2 ways. a) he's worried he's not a good manager and will fail or, b) he's got some insight into the setup and doesn't see any possibility to be successful, regardless of manager talent.

Either way, I find it a strange thing to divulge to the press.

 

[Don Vito]

Somewhere, a much loved German rubs his knee and smiles.

 

[Cobbler Bob]

I'm not ruling myself out. I reckon I could surpass TLB in how shit I could be at the job. Only thing I'd probably do better would be winding up the yahoo hordes.

 

[Clicker]

Another mumbling jump-the-dyke.

 

[AndyWebsterLoyal]

Wee Jay also rules himself out

 

[Barnster Bear]

Toothless...

 

[AppleBear]

I hope they don't give it to anyone like him. I'm seriously glad Neil is away - he is an absolutely toxic figure and I expended far too much negative energy whenever he opened his bigoted face.

I actually hope they get someone low key and non-controversial.

 

[Mexi]

I rule myself out aswell.

For the record, I'll give it a go

I'll have the bastards in the relegation zone by Christmas

 

[rossgers]

Came on to point out that Mark McGhoo hasn't ruled himself out yet.

 

[insanicdrunk]

I'll rule myself in, I'll be a shite manager so all good!

 

[Jase]

I just don’t believe as hard as I’d try I’d make as much of an arse of it as the last guy.

I agree it would be a challenge but I'd have a fcukin' good go.

 

[Brother Crockett]

It's a job he could get his teeth into.

 

[portproddyboysfb]

I happen to hate/despise that rancid excuse of a football club so for that reason I'm out
