Re: Where would Celtic with current team finish in other lea

The current Celtic team is rubbish, no doubt about it.

However, if they came to England, with their fanbase and the TV money here - I think they would be a threat.

If you look at their budget compared to the lower Premiership sides, it's quite incredible that they've beaten Barcelona in the Champion's League in the last few years.

While Sunderland are bidding £14 million for average strikers, Celtic are going into the Champion's League with a team full of £2 million players.

wigan have beaten us, twice, but they are leagues away. one off games mean fuck all.

I agree, I said the current Celtic team are very poor.

But surely you agree if they were in the Premiership getting the TV money along with their fanbase they would be pretty strong?

Celtic are a massive club, reguarly getting 60,000 attendances, but there's no money in Scottish football.

Celtic's highest wage earner is on £20k a week - the same as some of Stoke's reserve players.

Celtic are as big a club as at least 50% of the Premiership. Nobody can say the likes of Burnley and QPR are bigger clubs than Celtic, just in a finicially stronger league.

People who want them (and the other half of the old sectarian bastards firm) in the PL keep saying they'd take 15,000 to every away game. Given they'd get a maximum of around 3,000 tickets what would the other 12,000 be doing?
They'd do very well once the sponsorship money came in, but only if they avoided relegation which is by no means certain.

Who is their manager? What is his background or is he just the cheapest option?
