Scottish Fitba'

With all the chaos around managers in Scotland, it’s great that StJ have felt able to offer their manager a contract extension to 2029 - congrats to Simo Valakari 👍

Contracts really mean very little, results will dictate how long he stays. A run of poor results he'll get sacked and if he does really well it won't stop a bigger club taking him off you.
 
Well done MON on your return..massive improvement all round.
It's mad to think how much difference a good man manager and other backroom staff with the tactics can make to a team. So much more comfortable not playing a back 3.
Couldn't help but notice the lack of celebration from maeda when he scored. Hopefully that was just frustration at his earlier missed chances. I hope we manage to hold onto him till the summer.
 
Is Maeda looking to leave?
He’s been after a move since the summer, and came close to joining Brentford and Wolfsburg. Latest word is he has decided to stay until the summer as a regular game at Celtic will help cement his place at the WC.

But that could all change if someone comes in with a big money offer. It would be hard to resist doubling or tripling his wages.

It was a very good performance, Engels and Tounetki in particular were excellent.
