🔗 Share this article Unbowed Celtic's manager does not fear dismissal however supporters unleash anger following defeat. The under-pressure manager insisted he had no concerns about dismissal, maintaining, “We are extremely close to things turning around,” in the wake of edging perilously close to the chopping block with a convincing setback against their arch-rivals. A Second-Half Meltdown Results in Derby Loss Celtic were ahead the visitors at half-time but a disastrous second period enabled Danny Röhl’s team to pull level on points with the current league title holders. The former MLS manager, who was hired in December, has now overseen six defeats in his last eight games. “We are together at the club,” insisted the manager. Pressed on the speculation, he responded: “I don’t think about it. My focus is on finding ways to help my team to excel on details. Fan Fury On Display Celtic’s support voiced their fury – aimed at the board and manager – by protesting outside the stadium. Club directors are thought to be considering to bring back Martin O’Neill, who steered the club during a interim spell previously, if the Frenchman were sacked. “It’s the results [that leads to pressure]. And that’s the truth for the moment. Yet in stating this is the reality, it doesn’t mean that I am giving up. No. My point is we are on the cusp, really, really close to turn things around.” “Really, Really Close” The coach continues to cling to the fact the side show good levels for 45 minutes at a time. In fact, were it not for wastefulness in front of goal they might have been greater than 1-0 up. “There were positives except the fact that we haven’t scored a second goal,” he said. “I accept that we lost, but I must remain objective. “The standard we had at stages was exceptionally high. This is the reality. I wouldn't say that if it was different. Therefore, in terms of results, I mentioned we've seen this before. For that reason I said that we are nearly there to things turning around. Currently: details, details, details.” “There were many, many good things that we did, once more. The issue now is performing for 90 minutes. My outlook would not be if it was not the case. That’s why I am a big believer we will manage to turn things around.” The Rangers Boss Response Danny Röhl was cautious about a title charge despite what appeared to be a landmark win. “Step by step, and we can gradually build a challenge,” he said. “The belief in the team is immense.”
