Antonio Conte's former assistant at Chelsea, Juventus and Italy joins Kilmarnock ( I know how to spell their name) on a three-year deal, what a bold and adventurous signing that is for a team who made great strides last season and took enough points off Rangers last year to keep them even further behind Celtic than the previous season.
Time will tell of course if he can do as well there as Steve Clark but good on Killie for not sitting back and taking an easy and cheap option for the managerial post, good luck to them.
 

Is this the same Kilmarnock side, that finished 11 points behind Rangers last season?And what trophies did Steve Clarke win at Kilmarnock?Answers on a postcard please.If this is what some people see as success, then i'd hate to see what they would consider to be failure.

This post really shows how blinkered you are, take those bitter red,white and blue glasses off, put your snare drum down and see that Clark took them to their highest finish since 1966, or for 53 years whichever is the most acceptable to your ultra intelligence that can't fathom what success is to a small provincial club in a national premiership League, plus it got it's usual easy bite from you for bonus points.
You consider slippy's stint at Ibrox a success, what has he won? Has he shomanaged to narrow the gap on Celtic? Did he manage to prevent Celtic from a clean sweep of trophies again, did he manage to improve their shocking disciplinary record? answers on a postcard please, if this is success, then I would hate to see what you would consider as failure.:coffee:

Celtic's effort to sign McGinn last year was embarrassing, but I can't see what more they could do here, other than offer a player who had a good six months in the Scottish Premiership twenty grand a week.

From what I've heard, the player is a Motherwell fan, and would prefer to go down South. If his agent can get him more money in England, and I would be surprised if he couldn't, then it's best he goes to an English club, but it would be crazy for Celtic to make a young player, with only six good months in the SPFL, one of their to earners.

Clark took over at Killie when they were at the bottom of the league, with only 3 points. When he left they were 3rd in the league. I don't see how anyone could argue that he hasn't done a great job at Killie.

Was the Tweet really necessary though?

We all laughed at Rangers for "Concomitant" for instance

I just meant the tweet really. It looked like a 7 year old had written it in a strop. Can’t see how it could ever have helped the situation, or made Celtic look like a professional outfit.
