Havent got me rattled, I dont do rattled.
 
Imagine if they hadn't won all the trophies the last decade. Place would be set on fire probably
 
Here's the thing. I know a lot of people dont understand or accept, why we have had enough of our board.

We have won a lot of trophy's and for supporters of other teams who go through life winning fuck all, your Rangers of this world, cant see what all the fuss is about. Their goals are aims are to stop us grinding them into a paste. Our ambitions are not just to catch them, or stay in front of them, thats easy. We want to use the resources we have, so we can compete in Europe better.

We haven't won a knockout game in Europe for 20 years.

In the last 9 attempts to qualify for the CL we have failed 7 times.

Until last season we havent got out of the group since Neil lennon over ten years ago.

Our recruitment isnt even remotely good. We have had too many players who just aren't good enough.

Our board have been publicly called out by other clubs for their lowballing shit re player values.

Over the last 15 years we have spent £70m on players who didnt get played because they were shit.

We are never prepared for qualifiers.

We didn't replace Kyogo in January and sold Idah, replacing neither. Johnny Kenny is now our No 1 striker. A player that was to be loaned out to Bolton..

We didn't replace Khun and have no right winger, relying on people playing out if position on 35 year old Forrest.

We have £80m in the bank.

We were £15m up on the last window.

We lost to the Kiarat Arms.

We were taken to the cleaners by The Midgies who have a stadium that couldn't hold our waiting list for a season book.

We want to be able to compete with clubs of similar resources, Bruges, Ajax, etc. We are nowhere near that.

We are controlled by a mad billionaire that is risk averse and a ****.

Our board are inept. Been there too long and are useless cunts.

We know if we get better at recruitment, actually have a net spend and get better in Europe, we will run a savvy domestically.

Our board are bombproof how the shares are divided. It us actually worse than the 90's because they had no money, as well as clue. Now we have money but still no clue.

We all have a desire to see our clubs do as well as they xan possibly do within the limits of our resources. We dont even touch the sides of that.

When your team are shit and win fuck all, it can seem hard to work out. But, because your team are shit, doesnt mean we have to accept being shit. When better managlement and strategy coukd change that.

That weasel **** there to read out his dad's note was a disgrace. Lawell was a disgrace. He was asked to move straight to questions, but refused to watch a video of how great they all are. I detest that bastsrd and will dance on his grave when the time comes.this is a battle we may nit win, bit it has to be fought and we will fight these cunts all the way. The Notcl A Penny more protest is killing our stores and online merch. Food and drink sold on the stadium has collapsed. They cunts squeeze every penny out of us. They dont spend it on the team anyway, so fuck them and keep it up. The zceltic stores are now selling stuff discounted. Its working. Its a long haul that as I said, we might never win, but sometimes you need to fight, even when you know that.

This whole affair is 20 years of judt being happy to be ahead of Rangers. That's not enough.

Celtic’s decline is a symptom of their success. Celtic’s constant success makes the SPL ever weaker all the time, which just makes Celtic ever weaker.

The worst thing that has ever happened to Celtic in their history was Rangers being liquidated and having to start a new club down the leagues. In the years before then - even though there still wasn’t even a large enough spread of success across teams then either - at least the bigger the competition with a closer in revenue and quality Celtic and Rangers saw three teams getting into CL qualifying rounds due to the league being higher up the rankings.

When one team takes in all the revenue from wining trophies and playing in the CL, it leaves everyone else lagging behind with a gap that cannot be bridged, which weakens the league as a whole. That’s ends up seeing that one team’s success mean less and less because there’s less interest in the league, fewer good players signing for other clubs, the quality of the league keeps on declining and the league falls down the rankings and there’s less European competition money coming into the league. It’s a cycle that the SPL won’t get out of until other teams start to be successful up there.

Celtic will only be competitive in Europe when the SPL balances out with success and money covering numerous teams.

It doesn’t matter if Celtic have £80m in the bank when not enough decent players fancy playing in a bobbins league with no competition. They’d rather play in top ten ranked leagues like the Championship or the Portuguese or Belgian leagues, not the 33rd ranked league in the world: https://globalfootballrankings.com/rankings/leagues/men

The best thing that could happen to Celtic would be for Hearts to win the SPL this season, then maybe Aberdeen and Rangers also winning one each of the next four after that, with Celtic wining the other two. Improving the spread of success is going to be only thing that will improve Celtic in the long term.

The board might have problems, they might be doing things wrong, but they aren’t the problem in the wider context.

Their board are doing nothing wrong.

It’s time it was called out.

They run Scottish football from the very top and gave done for years. The won one league on a zoom call FFS!
 
I hear Celtic scored an Own goal but it was disallowed for Off Side.

Surprised Kevin Clancy , Sean Carr and Mathew McDermid came to that decision. Shocked I say
