Charlie Nicholas has taken aim at Peter Lawwell in the wake of his return to Celtic, and is adamant that the majority of the Hoops fan base do not want him.
On Friday it was announced that Lawwell will take over as the new chairman at the club following Ian Bankier's decision to step down. Lawwell had previously served as Celtic's chief executive for a lengthy spell between 2003 and 2021, before retiring from the role.
But Nicholas, who won two league titles and a League Cup during his time as a player at Parkhead, insists Lawwell's return is a backwards move for the club, and also insisted that the 63-year old needs to shoulder a huge share of the blame for Celtic not winning 10 Premiership titles in a row.He told Scottish Express Sport : "I'm sure the majority of the Celtic supporters will not be welcoming him back. It is a negative in my opinion, although everyone will know I haven't been a Lawwell fan for a long time. He had too much of an ego and it is too much about him.
