Not as simple as that either Murph - Other side of the coin is keeping some quality in the team more times than not we would be pocketing £20m + a season minimum in the CL and have won the league each season at a canter. |

As I said I have no time for Lawwell and Co but in my view it's simply not true to say that the difference between Celtic 2003 and the Celtic of today is the board's downsizing. The major difference is the rise in wages and transfer fees - Crystal Palace paid the same transfer fee and wage for James McArthur as we paid for Chris Sutton. That's not to say the board haven't been too cautious and wasteful - they have - but the major difference between 2003 and today is market forces. |

Unfortunately this is true. As I understand it the bottom club in the EPL will be bringing in about £80 million more fv money than us next year. And given that tv money nearly all converts to disposable income that is a massive gap. No ceo of celtic will bridge that gap. |

Irrespective of who they appoint, there has to be changes in the boardroom. Yet again the directors have sat on their hands when it was glaringly obvious at the end of last year Ronnie was struggling. In 2008/9 we did the exact same when th strikers couldn't buy a goal and we didn't strengthen. Until the likes of Lawwell, Allison, and Bankier go with Dermot reappraising how involved he wants to be at Parkhead, I remain unconvinced about the long term future. |

Don't know enough about Bankier to pass comment but Allison and PL are both Celtic fans. However they are both getting on, as we all are and the time has come for new ideas. Long term we have to be able to live within our means, anything else is just inviting trouble. However the last three years have been poor and more than the hapless Ronny should carry the can. We really need DD and O'Brien to decide to spend either more time on the club or invest more more over the short term to allow others to get on and do the necessary things! 1. Appoint an experienced manager, coaching team and back room staff. 2. Clear out the dead wood among the playing staff and not allow some to hang about like a bad smell. 3. Recruit some new players, RB, CH, LB(probably), 2 DM, CF Al that will take money and lots of hard word on and off the park! Edited by jbj712, 24 Apr 2016, 01:05 PM.

The banners that were unveiled by the GB were beautiful. The message was perfectly clear for all to see.

Lawwell (sic) and Desmond's legacy: empty jerseys, empty hearts, empty dreams, empty stands From boardroom to dressing room you've embarrassed yourselves. The Celtic jersey has shrunk to fit inferior players. |
