I'd love to see the books. With income from sponsorship, TV rights, ticket sales, merchandise and most of all transfer sales, where is the money going? Fair enough people can point to the lack of rangers and the drop in attendances, but can someone please explain the fundamental difference between how we could spend £6m on a player during O'Neill's tenure, yet can't spend anywhere near that these days? Is it just a change in strategy? If so, why have we changed into a selling club? |

Now its time for them to show their cards, Forster and VVD will almost certainly be off with a few others likely to follow. They WILL spend this window but its a question of how much and how much do they trust RD. |

Well I am no Zombie and I don't know why people are blaming Lawwell. He is an employee and is doing his masters bidding. DD is the man calling the shots |

Is anyone worried that with this policy we are going to have a worse team when Sevco get into the top league than we had when the huns(IL) left? |

I'm more worried about the here and now than to speculate 5 or 10 years down the line. |

It's not a worry mate it is a fact. We will have dragged ourselves down close to their level. |

It would take a hell of a turn around for that not to be the case. As we stand today we are clearly weaker than we were two years ago. Of course, not that Rangers "left" as you put it. They went bust and died. A phoenix company, appealing to the same "fan" base is currently failing to dust itself of the ashes. |

We quite rightly rip the pish out of Sevco fans propping up a bunch of chancers in the boardroom of their new club and now realising theres eff all they can do to get rid of them. Our club is in a healthy financial state and no danger of ending up in the state Rangers did, but in a way our board is milking us every bit as much as Sevco is milking the berrs. ...And we have as much chance of doing anything about it as they have!! |

That Rangers team last night would beat our lot tonight. Thats how bad we have drifted. We cannot even bench mark ourselves to the new skint team Sevco, despite our wealth, prudence and supposedly professional board. How is that for executive negligence, a profitable business and a third rate football club. The board should hang their heads in shame at letting one man convince them that he knows best. Best about finance ( where are the new sponsorships and jersey deals Peter?), best about football ( where is your footballing partner, the manager who unlike some others was successful despite your interference). Our board may have come from successful businesses( well some of them) but they dont know how to develop and grow a successful business and take full advantage of the competitor's weakness'. And they dont know how to ensure the guilty get punished, negligence all round. Presiding over embarassment. Any of the board happy with such shortcomings, should rev up and feck off into the night, DD included. |

I would genuinely be interested in joining/getting involved in another Celts for Change campaign. I have an incredible amount of hatred for this current Celtic board. |

I'm secretly hoping that PL comes out tomorrow and says he was saving up our cash to pay for a £100m bond to play in the EPL. Only explanation that he is not a genuine carrot. But then I've drank two bottles of Vodka since that debacle. |

Lawell needs to GTF. He is poison for the playing side of the organisation. |

And Lawell has been in limbo mode for 2 years waiting on them. I've said before, the man doesn't have the imagination to operate out of the OF box. He wants their bastard offspring back and asap. |

Seriously, what does he'd do apart from hinder,obstruct and derail our progress. We should be building from strength and crushing any possible chance of effin sevco Ever getting a glimpse of effin recognition on this planet. |
