Hoops gaffer wants peace between fans and the board
THERE'S no such thing as a quiet international break in the world of Scottish football - or indeed Celtic.
Across the city, there's more upheaval after Russell Martin was sacked and crisis-hit Rangers launched yet another managerial hunt.
One minute Steven Gerrard was in the running. The next he was out and Kevin Muscat now looks poised to take over.
The comical nature of Gers' recruitment process has given Hoops fans plenty to laugh about in the absence of club football.
But there's still a storm brewing at Parkhead as tensions escalate between supporters and the boardroom.
A summit between the under-fire hierarchy and the Celtic Fan Collective failed to see peace break out - with CEO Michael Nicholson and finance chief Chris McKay accused of lacking "awareness, humility and accountability" after discussions collapsed.
That's seen fans launch a new anti-board campaign urging supporters to boycott the club's merchandise and matchday catering as they push for change at the top.

STINA TIME KEEPS GUNNS FIRING
ARSENAL cemented their grip on fifth with a comfortable 4-1 win at struggling LEICESTER Alessia Russo and two-goal Stina Blackstenius (inset) stood out in a third straight win for the Gunners. Kelly Gago grabbed a stoppage-time equaliser for EVERTON in an entertaining 3-3 draw at VILLA. France international striker Gago said: “It was great to get two goals and we have to thank the fans for their support.” LIVERPOOL are still searching for their first point after goals from Toko Koga and Bethany England helped fourth-placed TOTTENHAM seal a 2-1 comeback win in a game that had 22 minutes of stoppage time after Reds’ forward Mia Enderby was taken off on a stretcher before going to hospital with a suspected neck injury.
