I’m not sure if it has been posted elsewhere but if we qualify for the CL we will earn more than celtic at the start (outwith gates, points) with a minimum of €43 million euros. CL qualification is an absolute must. 

The other thing is if they went after a 20m player, that player is likely to have options in the mid-lower end of the EPL or abroad and will simply move there for even if it's not for more money. The options will be more appealing. So there's always a ceiling on the players you can buy. 

I disagree, I think he realises he can't talk shit to Usyk so he is trying to get into his head by other means. 

You could be right but the sickening thing is they'll have guaranteed champions league money coming in and top dollar for the likes of O'Reilly and Hatate if they both go. Not saying money guarantees you success as signings sometimes don't work out but they are in a far better shape than us

I think when we / they are talking about spending power, there’s a big bank balance but you’re limited in what you can buy a player for in Scotland without bursting your wage budget. They might have £70m to spend, but to sign a £20m player you need to pay £20m player wages - and no one is Scotland is getting £50k+ a week even if they’re Ronaldo. Theyve got a great model, but it’s always ‘buy low, develop, sell high’. Having money is one thing, but spending it well is another. We’ve spend the guts of £30m over the last 2 years and spend it horrendously. One great window aside, they been pretty pish as well.
