Tony Mowbray has vowed to take full responsibility for coming up with excuses for Celtic’s crushing to St Mirren.
Mowbray said: “It is my job as manager to come up with the excuses and I am going to roll up my sleeves and absolutely do that. I will not shirk from that in any way.
“Quite clearly, when you lose 4-0 to a team who couldn’t beat your main rivals when they only had nine men, you need to take full responsibility and that is why I am blaming penguins, the weather, the wrong type of grass and Lord Lucan.
“At the end of the day, maybe I have got to look at this negative approach Rangers are taking whereby they win most games. Maybe I am just old fashioned but I thought I was here to entertain.
“I might have got it slightly wrong in that we are entertaining Rangers fans and other supporters rather than our own but you know what that is an easy mistake to make which of course I blame entirely on the Celtic board. They just said entertain.”
Mowbray went on: “I have brought expansive football to Celtic, you only have to look at the gaping gaps in our defence to see just how expansive we are.
“People like Tony Mowbray have to stand up and be counted and that is why I talk about myself in the third person. I will go on with my philosophy because I believe in losing in a humiliating fashion and I have a great agent who always gets me a great severance deal.”
