We shouldn't be surprised by this - the clubs support of doncaster and regan/ogilvie amidst the huns despicable cheating should tell you all you need to know.

It's along with the money, been about getting the OF back and running again, and it's seems that they have achieved their goal.
Aye a few will walk away, but many many more will take their place.
To coin a phrase, not another thin dime will the club get from me or my family as long as the current board are in situ, they are worse than huns imo, huns do what they do cos they are huns.
I don't think they will.
Absolutely they will. Attendances will improve quite a bit on the back of a rangers being there and any home games against them will be the only ones to be a sell out. Sad as it is

"Hitting them in the pocket" doesn't work. This will be put down to the "difficult environment the club operates in" and in fact probably make the failed conveyor belt policy go into overdrive.

If people are hitting them in the pocket, it has to be done as a message, such as the Liverpool fans walking out recently. Otherwise, a low attendance can be put down to the economic climate, Mothers' Day, playstations, the weather, no competition (ahem), no zombies, and so on.

A few thousand people don't go because of the board hoping this issue runs out of time? Add them to the list, then sell another player to make up for it, and replace him with three pish ones.

There is a game coming up which would dramatically say to the board and the SFA to "GTF" if there was a vast reduction buying tickets for the semi final. How will our CEO spin the sight on national TV if there is a near empty Celtic end at the only game worthwhile in Scotland (courtesy on SMSM)?

If the fans are so outraged don't buy the tickets, double whammy to our board and the SFA.

Shouldn't be a problem as we are so fooked off, otherwise the outrage is all just wind and pish.

The home games against them will certainly be sellouts, but I don't think you'll see any great increase in attendances at other games. Why would there be? No doubt there'll be a few odd people who buy season tickets just so they can watch us play Sevco, but I doubt that'll be enough to counter the number of current ST holders who won't renew.

We as a support are doing exactly what the board want - nothing. We've laughed and mocked the zombies for waiting to see everything panned out as their board did as they pleased but when it comes down to the crunch, we're the exact same.

Fans need to show support for the team, that's obvious, but as an absolute minimum
we need to show that we support Resolution 12 ..... with 'The Huns Cheated' banners
'What you going to do about it?' unfurled at the 12th minute of EVERY game ....

According to the boys involved in Res 12, the board are stalling them.
There is a time bar which ends at the end of the month if the club are to inform UEFA, and it's looking like they board have no intention of doing so.
Seems like they are well and truly in bed with the sfa to cover this up.
Sad, but they give not a jot for the support, they only care about your money.
The guys have to speak out then, they can't let Lawwell get away with this. It's something that affects all of us - all of Scottish football - and not just to address the cheating of the past but to lay down a marker for the future. If Celtic capitulate now it will send a message to the SFA it can get away with any skullduggery it chooses within Scottish football.
Yep they should be given a platform to make the support en masse aware. I'm sure many don't even know of resolution 12.

Should paste a message across forums and blogs at least.

The huns did cheat, it's what huns do.
Res 12 is about the SFA and their misgovernance, not about the huns.
It's 2016 and we still dream of a level playing field, it's supposed to be sport after all :ffs:

Again, I plead with the GB to take anti-board banners to every game and direct chants at them throughout.

The irony is that us (the fans) are getting aerated about the fact that the dead-huns were illegally licensed by the SFA in 2011/12 and therefore did us (the club) out of that seasons CL money. :nono:

When we ourselves (the board) have done a damn fine job, of missing out on the CL monies, oftentimes since :brickwall:

Doubt they'd be too happy fighting battles on behalf of many fans that have vilified them over the years.

I said a long time ago the board had parked this by getting well meaning, but ultimately powerless, fans to do this. Removed from an agm so it wasn't discussed openly. This had to come from the board. They are failing us and have no idea of the supporters' feelings on this.
Excellent summary. They've shafted some very hard-working and well-meaning people in doing so though.

Our board have been playing a war of attrition generally on this. They won't do a damned thing re making sure justice justice is done.

How can these ***** be so blind? The shampooe on the park, the falling attendances, the harassment by the cops and now this?

Can they not see that fans(or paying customers to these arseholes) are being driven away, with a good chance that some may never return?
They're Tories to a man, ergo they give not one single eff about anyone else as long as they're getting paid.
They think a club playing out of Ibrox will bring back our unique "rivalry" and the fans and interest with it. That's been their playbook since 2012. Nothing I've seen since then has convinced me we're not complicit in allowing the biggest sporting scandal in recent UK history to go unpunished at our expense.

Our board can't not do Old firm. That would take managers with vision and skill. Bigot pound is easy money.
