Celtic fans have been reacting to comments made by defender Stephen Welsh following the game against Aberdeen, although.
The Bhoys managed to win the game 1-0 after an early goal from Odsonne Edouard in John Kennedy’s first game in charge, and speaking to the club website after the game, the defender spoke on a number of issues, including the game itself. He also took a moment to talk about former boss Neil Lennon and the job that he did in coaching him up and giving him his chance in the Celtic team.
And that was the point that the fans on social media decided to pick up on. Given the anger that has surrounded Lennon in recent times, they felt that it was rather weird that he still gets a mention despite the fact he resigned last week:
“Can the club stop talking about our former manager?”
Can Welsh be Celtic first-team captain one day?
Yes
No
Which you can kind of understand, his ‘era’ is over, so it’s time to move on. And especially seeing as he didn’t leave in the best of circumstances, the less his name is mentioned the better it would seem.
