wearethepeople1 3,897 Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 I thought we were banned for 3 years.Hence no europe until we are back in spfl, assuming we get promoted at the first time of asking.But if we were to make the sc final against them next season win or lose we should have a euro place in the bag. The euro campaign would start the next season which would be our 4th season out of Europe so we should be able to play?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CalvinC 1,414 Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 Ambrose is an utter bomb-scare. Wilson was pretty shit, yet he was so much better than him. That Muyokolo looks equally as bad. Haven't seen Van Dijk. Certainly Lennon weak spot, identifiying a Centre HalfAnd who the fuck have we had in the last 14 months that has been a solid reliable centre back? We've had some right dodgy centre halts.Do agree though, that is their weakness. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingKirk 25,643 Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 He doesn't need to spend that's the point.The damage is done now, an easy 10 million.They will spend when we are back as they have no competition just now.No need to spend the CL money weather we are there or not. When we get back to that level. A 5million spending spree would allow us to easily challenge for the title. At the first attempt. People that think they will have a war chest at the ready for when we are back are being daft. If they do go out n spunk 10million on our return. They will be bust quicker than hearts Pepe 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's bizarre!Aye, we have had some dodgy centre halfs, never said we hadn't!Was just stating that Celtic's are not very good, certainly can be got at. Get the feeling they might well get exposed this year in the Champions League Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inigo 32,526 Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 I seriously wonder about some of the fans on here.Absolutely deluded if you think we will win the league at the first, second or even third time of asking.We will honestly be lucky if we stop them doing 9 in a row.We are already skint after one season, while they have banked close to £40 million already.This, sadly. Unless something unexpected happens and there is significant team investment. Can't see where that will come from. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marco Negri's Beard 1,423 Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 This, sadly. Unless something unexpected happens and there is significant team investment. Can't see where that will come from.Frankly I couldn't even begin to imagine. If you'd asked me 2 years ago if we'd be in the Scottish 3rd tier I woulda laughed in your face. Who knows, perhaps we can weed out the cancers in our club and actually begin to function as a proper business within the next 2 years. Bloody hope so!

Can't see where that will come from.Once back In top div league money and sponsorship money will increase as will st prices but it won't be majorly significant. Involvement in Europe is vital for decent sponsors to come in and throw money about. A decent run in the Europa league would help massively in first/second season back and we can build from there Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They made a fair whack in last seasons CL and league and SC cashThis season they have sold hooper and wanyama for 17mil apparently and have just made well over 10mil tonight by beating some sheep killers So they are nearly 30mill up this season already And it's still August We need our own house In order pronto Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CottonRunt 978 Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 They have also adapted their transfer policy, and are no longer signing the Graverson's and Keane's (both of 'em!) of this world. No longer spunking money on 30k a week wages etc. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingKirk 25,643 Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 Celtic doing 9iar get a grip n stop listening to the tims ffs. They are 10x weaker than last season..

Jimfanciesthedude 24,540 Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 25million were are U getting that from?they made a cool 20mill last season from the CL alonethis season they have made close to 20mill in player sales and have now banked a tidy 17mill in the CL again57mill in extra revenue, say they have spent 10mill max by time the window closes, thats 47mill extra they have earned, even if they are running at a loss of 15mill in a regular season, that would still give them a 17mill profit to fanny about withby the time we get back to the SPL they will be so far out of our sight that we'd need a shit ton of money just to stay competitive with them, and thats not including any additional euro incomes within the next two seasons Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

N even without taking out the players that left they were not very good.All that true. Still a fair bit ahead of anyone else in the country too. Resources that nobody can get near. Impossible to say what will happen til we get to the top league and hopefully sort our shit out, but don't think 9 in a row, albeit a version never anywhere near as valid as either their previous or ours, is outwith the realms of possibility Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CottonRunt 978 Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 Point is, they have everyone, including authorities like the sfa pulling in the same direction.We can't even get our own board to pull in the same direction.Plus, they have scouting networks etc in place, how long will it take us to get any of that sort of thing set up.
