Agree with you that Doig is a work in progress and he will turn out a top player and needs to stay with us for fine tuning. Unfortunately he will not get the amount of play time he needs because Celtic fans demand instant results and that is probably going to go against him. Look at the Leigh Griffiths for example, he never got a run in the first team and was used mainly as a sub. That may well have contributed to his mental issues,it most certainly didn't help them.
You mention Pat Stanton but he was signed as a stop gap to help bring some stability to their struggling mid field. Celtic could have signed him when he was in his prime but chose not to. At least he got a Scottish cup medal there to go with the losers medals he got with us.
