Not all of them but one or two aren't looking great. Here's a photo - any ideas?

I'm not sure what the dark spots are from. Maybe from insect eggs? I found small green deposits inside the leaf fold which looked like either poo or eggs of some sort.

I think its poo myself too, strip the yellow leaves as well though.  It could be a disease, and yellow leaves on brassicas should always be got rid of

Do you mean the greyhound type Celery with the pointed hearts ?
Or is it a name of a cabbage variety, It's my first year growing.
