A lot of Celtic fans have flocked to a post from the Daily Record Sport, which has a link to a story on their site with comments made by John Barnes on Paul Lambert.

Celtic fans, can you get 8/8 on this quiz on forgotten players? First up: who is this?

Barnes, speaking to a site (via the Daily Record), claims that the Bhoys should forget about Eddie Howe and make a move for former Norwich City and Stoke City boss Lambert.

This suggestion has not gone down well with these Bhoys fans who are fuming.

John Barnes is a parody.”

What a numpty”

@GilfoyleDaniel

It’s not 2012. Lambert has no stock anymore”

@TheBhoyJM

Do you agree with Barnes?

No, not at all

No, not at all

Yes, he is right

Yes, he is right

Lambert most recently managed in League One but was sacked by Ipswich Town in the 2020/21 campaign, and the Tractor Boys ended up outside of the play-offs as a result of the poor spell before Lambert was sacked.

So, you can see why these Celtic fans are not keen on Lambert and are baffled by Barnes’ comments.

Key word claims John Barnes our clubs worst ever manager”

@Dunnomate77_

Please no”

@RlEoin

Eh?”

@Celtic67Fins72

Lambert did play for Celtic as a player, but it is pretty clear that not many of these fans want him back as their manager.
