Hopeully he will have learned more from Jens than Malpas did from Butcher.

Know what you mean, still gives me the fear thinking about him but with this board I’d be happy to take the chance if they decide on Max.

Any time I think about an assistant manager taking over I remember Maurice Malpas and decide against it.

I think.ot all depends on what Jens wants. Hopefully the board can tempt him to stay with improved contract and transfer funds but realistically we can't compete with a club like toulouse financially. Fact fadinger signed extension makes me think maybe chance Jens could stay but we shall see

STV reporting we are in negotiations with Toulouse for JBA. If he goes do you think Max could step up? For me he’s got to be one of the contenders for the job full time. Would JBA take him to Toulouse? Other backroom staff? Feels like a big off season coming up to keep our momentum going. would also say I hope JBA realises he should stay here.

Hes like a Jens tribute act

Max Rogers?

Is the opportunity to get a large pay hike to live in the South of France really that appealing?* *yes

I'd need to care for it to be harsh 🤔😂

Yeah I think we all had a wee glimmer of hope he would stay but really we expected Jens to go. However pretty sure the board already had plans for this should this situation crop up i have nothing but faith in the club to get it right again.

Bit harsh, he was only sharing the story 🤪🤪

DOH!! I meant Whyte, sorry...Will amend

If MFC are in discussions with Toulouse can it be assumed the Club ie MFC have spoken to Jens to get his view on a potential move.

I did see stuff about Toulouse being interested in Jens but no mention that they had approached us. As mentioned though, we pretty much knew it would come. Might as well get it sorted out early as possible. Move to Toulouse or commit to Motherwell. However, perhaps he wants better offer than Toulouse and decide to stay here one more season. I know, ever the optimist! I hope the board might go above and beyond normal to keep Jens here 1 more season to give it our best shot in Europe. We only have 9 weeks till our first leg tie. Either way, as long as he doesn’t go to another Scottish club I can handle it.

The tweet might be new, but I thought the news about the approach was a few days old.

I think …. Hope… we do have a plan. When we’ve seen how sought after and praised Jens has been for the past 8 months really…. Surely they’ve thought we need to sort out a contingency plan. I’d hope that Jens may have played a part in this too and identify managers/coaches of a similar mindset to him. who knows

So, the clubs are currently in discussions. That means they're probably thrashing out compensation. We'll see what comes of that. If JBA is going to leave, then I'd prefer that he did so now. That gives us time to source a replacement in time for the new season starting. No doubt, the directors have a plan in place for this very eventuality.

That's my impression as well. We all know the behaviour of some Rangers fans has been unsavoury and menacing in the past, like the infamous riot at FP in 1978 because they were 2-0 down and looking at a hiding, and many other violent incidents over the years, including in Manchester after the UEFA Final in 2008. That said, the behaviour of a section of Celtic fans seems to have deteriorated the more they have dominated the Scottish game in the last 15 years and the growth of the Green Brigade is a toxic phenomenon which shows an arrogant sense of entitlement and sense of impunity which we can see transfers to the club itself with its recent desperate attempts to justify/deny the indefensible after last Wednesday and Saturday. Unfortunately, we're stuck with them both because to admit them to the English Premiership would be suicidal for it, even if it were possible. Until there is a real will shown by the police, SG and Scottish football authorities to restore order, fairness and sporting integrity to our game, nothing will change. I wonder also how many of our "new" supporters will have been put off by these recent events, despite the best efforts of our manager, players and club generally?

As much as I'll be gutted to see him go you an understand his ambitions and a decent European side fits that ambition however if he ended up with those East End tramps I'd wish him nothing but bad luck.

bit harsh!

If one was to read twitter comments, with no prior knowledge of the subject, you may actually think that Jens was potentially leaving Celtic to go to Toulouse.

Just googled Toulouse there and their captain is a Dane. There’s also a few Norwegian players there too. this has added to my disappointment

Arse!

In talks with Zander McAllister, hopefully he’ll sign as I think there’s a player there, didn’t look out of place in his appearances this season.

Looks like a wee but of weight to the Toulouse thing. If he does go…. And according to Halliday, he’s off. I’d 100% prefer he went to France than attach himself to either set if the Glasgow poison. you’d think the attraction of living and working in a stunning city in southern France would be a no brainer rather than stuck in a mauket, run down, every road dug up cesspit of a city like Glasgow. i don’t know his circumstances but id guess he speaks French as well…. He can do every fkn thing else.
