Many Celtic fans have been talking about the latest tweet that the club recently relayed on social media.
The club’s tweet concerned Celtic assistant manager John Kennedy and it carried some quotes from an interview that Kennedy had given to the Celtic View (via Celticfc.net).
In the interview, Kennedy said that Celtic’s win over Motherwell was a ‘good response’ following a ‘disappointing’ defeat to Sparta Prague in the Europa League. He hailed the attitude of the players in the game at Fir Park and believes that the 4-1 result was a ‘convincing’ win for the Bhoys.
The tweet carried these comments from Kennedy and it caught the attention of many Celtic fans. They made their opinion clear about the quotes from Kennedy.
What did Celtic fans make of this tweet involving John Kennedy?
This is what makes me laugh. And cry. If JK believes that was a convincing victory then he needs to be educated as to what the standards should be at Celtic.

Are Celtic fans right to be angry at John Kennedy?
Yes
No
an absolute joke.
Kennedy needs to follow Lenny out the door asap.— Dea (@deanmccann) November 12, 2020
Aye, if only it was a one off disappointing performance and not 3 months of horrendous attitude, management, performances as a team and individually and absolutely honking defensive moments.
One would be okay with one off, but 3mths? you and the guys need to look closer to home.— PeejPrime (@PeejPrime) November 12, 2020
Think Kennedy was watching a different game from me, at 2-1 we were on the ropes. What exactly does Kennedy do at Celtic ?

Kennedy has been the club’s assistant manager since February 2019 and in the past, he has been the club’s manager but managed just six games for the Bhoys (as per Transfermarkt).
Celtic have conceded 11 Premiership goals this season – as many as third-placed Aberdeen. They have let in a total of nine goals in the group stages of the UEFA Europa League. Some other Celtic supporters also made their frustration clear about Kennedy.
Job for life Kennedy should be out the door , would rather see Lennon with his own choice for number 2 https://t.co/HD8AmJx7oE

Some of these Celtic fans believe that the club’s win over Motherwell wasn’t convincing. The Hoops had picked up a rating of 7.22 in the game, while Motherwell had a rating of only 6.33. This might be enough to suggest that it was indeed a convincing win.
Having said that, the Hoops are nine points behind the Gers in the table and because of that, it is understandable why fans are frustrated.
