Celts Crash Out of League Cup at Ibrox with Pathetic Performance

It’s another miserable afternoon at Ibrox for Celtic as the Hoops crash out of the League Cup in humiliating fashion, going down 3-0 to Derek McInnes’ Rangers side in a performance that leaves far more questions than answers.Darren, Tony, Danny and Andy get stuck into the shambles from start to finish — from the baffling team selection to another big-game capitulation. Why was Sebastian Tounekti handed a starting place despite a string of uninspiring performances this season, while big-money signing Haissem Hassam was left on the bench amid reports he had barely slept?And in a performance where almost nobody covered themselves in glory, was young right-back Colby Donovan the only Celtic player who could walk off that pitch with anything approaching pass marks?But the biggest question is the one Celtic fans are asking: who is actually to blame?Is it manager Martin O’Neill? Is the coaching setup failing the team? Are the players simply not good enough when the pressure is on — with captain Callum McGregor once again struggling to make an impact in a major game? Or does the ultimate responsibility sit with the Celtic Board Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

4 Tims and a Podcast | Comeback Kings in Paisley! 🍀Darren and Tony are back to dissect a dramatic evening in Paisley as Martin O’Neill’s Celtic side came from behind to beat St Mirren 2-1 and stretch their lead at the top of the table!We start with the nightmare moment that put the Celts on the back foot — Liam Scales’ inexcusable handball gifting St Mirren a penalty, which the hosts duly converted. But was that the only controversial decision of the evening? We also examine the VAR call that ruled out a Camilo Duran equaliser and ask whether Celtic were on the wrong end of another questionable decision.Then came the second-half turnaround. Scales redeemed himself in style, rising highest to power home a header from a corner and restore parity. And with Celtic pushing for the winner, star man Camilo Duran produced another moment of quality, slipping a superb pass through to the impressive Yang, who coolly finished to complete the comeback!But with Yang now heading off on international duty with South Korea for the next month, just how big a miss will the Korean star be? Who steps up in his absence — and who has what it takes to fill his boots?Finally, we look ahead to the midweek trip to Perth to face newly promoted St Johnstone. Can the Celts maintain their 100% league record, make it another three points and keep the rest of the pack chasing their tails?🎙️ On this episode:St Mirren 1-2 Celtic — breaking down the comebackLiam Scales’ costly handball and penaltyThe controversial VAR decision to rule out Duran’s equaliserScales’ redemption with a crucial headerCamilo Duran’s brilliance and Yang’s winning finishHow big a miss will Yang be for Celtic?Who can replace the Korean star?Previewing Celtic’s trip to St JohnstoneCan the Celts maintain their 100% league record?Another comeback.

It looked like Celtic had one foot firmly in the Champions League proper. Leading 1-0 on the night and 4-0 on aggregate with just an hour to play, surely there was no way back for Austrian champions LASK Linz?Somehow, Celtic found one and handed it to them.In one of the most astonishing collapses in the club's European history, Celtic completely capitulated as LASK tore them apart, eventually winning 5-1 on the night and 5-4 on aggregate after extra time.On this episode of 4 Tims and a Podcast, we dissect one of Celtic's worst-ever results. How did a team that looked completely in control suddenly fall apart so spectacularly? Was it individual errors, a failure of the management team to react, or deeper problems within the Celtic boardroom?We discuss the players, the tactics, the substitutions, the mentality and the decisions from the touchline — before asking the biggest question of all:Who is ultimately to blame for one of the most humiliating nights in Celtic's European history?A night that began with Champions League dreams ended in complete and utter disaster.

Tony is joined by Danny and Andy to look back on a statement 5-1 victory for Celtic away at Kilmarnock — a result made even sweeter by a sensational hat-trick from new club-record signing Kasper Høgh.We discuss Høgh’s flying start to life at Celtic, the impact he has already had on the team, and why his early form only serves to highlight the frustration surrounding the club’s lack of transfer activity at a crucial stage of the window.With the squad set to face an Austrian side LASK Linz in a Champions League qualifier, we ask whether Celtic have enough depth and quality to cope with the demands ahead — and whether the board are once again taking an unnecessary gamble by leaving key areas of the squad short.We also take a closer look at the recently released minutes from a meeting between Celtic board members and a fan association group, examining what was said and what it tells us about the club’s current direction.And, of course, we finish by looking ahead to Saturday’s League Cup tie against Dundee United at Tannadice and give our predictions for what could be another important test for Martin O'Neill's side.5-1, a new record signing finding his feet, Champions League football looming and plenty to discuss — it’s another packed episode of 4 Tims and a Podcast!
