Distraught Sir Rod Stewart admits Wilfried Nancy is breaking his HEART and giving him sleepless nights with his beloved Celtic in freefall.
The superstar rock singer, 80, watched in agony as the toiling champions were pummelled by Motherwell at Fir Park – blowing the chance to move level on points with league leaders Hearts.
Rock icon Rod branded the 2-0 defeat a “humiliation” as he took to Instagram to vent his frustrations.
Nancy is now just two losses shy of matching John Barnes’ miserable record in charge at Parkhead after just 29 days at the helm.
And sickened Sir Rod – who will be at Parkhead for Saturday’s Glasgow derby – hinted he wants Nancy sacked.
Filming from inside his Celtic decorated gym, he said: “I didn’t sleep last night, and I’ll tell you why. We were beaten – Celtic, that is, and I love the Celtic, as you can see – by a very, very good Motherwell team who play, in my opinion, very modern, advanced football.
“They just kept attacking and attacking, and it was made easy by our backline that didn’t seem to exist. We were humiliated – really humiliated. Now, where is this all going to end?
Celtic manager Wilfried Nancy looks dejected
“Is Nancy going to go? Is he going to be sacked, like Russell Martin, maybe? Or is he going to continue, and we’re going to keep losing?
“He has now won two games out of seven, and apparently, the worst manager we’ve ever had was sacked after eight (seven) losses in 29 (26) games. John Barnes.
“It looks like this guy’s going to continue, so it breaks my heart. Should we give him a chance in January? I don’t know, but it looks like he’s going to stay.
“I come from a footballing family. We all love football. I remember my mum once said, ‘Football has caused more distress and arguments in the Stewart family than Adolf Hitler.’
“So, with that thought in mind, I’ll be up there on Saturday to watch the Celtic, and good luck, Rangers!”
