The myth that 9IAR is to blame


Recommended Posts

Guidi and a Snyde caller trying to pedal it there.

Absolute balls. Let me explain please.

Also allowed a caller to say we spent £130 to win 9IAR.

88/89 £1.5m out £700k in = net spend £800k

89/90 £3.6m out £1.3m in = net spend £2.3m

90/91 £2.3m out £1.3m in = net spend £1m

91/92 £7.2m out £10.1m in = profit of £2.9m

92/93 £3.7m out £1.5m in = net spend £2.2m

93/94 £5.2m out £1.5m in = net spend £3.7m

94/95 £7.5m out £5.9m in = net spend £1.6m

95/96 £11.5m out £2.3m in = net spend £9.2m

96/97 £9.5m out £0 in = net spend £9.5m

Less than £4m per year net spending. Genius!

Meaning to win 9 in a row the club spent around £33m net over 9 seasons give or take a few grand. Those bastards on Radio Snyde allowed that caller to say we spent £130m to win 9IAR without questioning it and Slug Guidi went even further and stated 9IAR was to blame for where we are today! doh:lol: Incredible stupidity.

9IAR has nothing to do with where we are today. Our current problems all started after Walter left first time round. When Walters squad was ripped apart and the proper big spending begun! Enter Wee Dick and the chaos began.

Rant over. :blush::uk:

:21:

*If any of the figures are out i apologise, i wrote this up pretty quickly in a rage! :) *

Agree with all that, except you have missed the main expenditure. Players wages.

the problem was that 9iar built up the fans expectations that we, as a club, would always buy the best to dominate scottish football, but unfortunately for us scottish football on a whole has declined in value

remember the money we were getting fron NTL when it was around, now look at the tennents deal

The motive is simple. They want to discredit, or even revoke, NIAR.

It hurts them.

Just like they hurt over the Mark Walters Affair. Hence their desire to have TFIO labelled, falsely and incorrectly, racist. Since then, they've had all sorts of "Love Celtic, Hate Racism." and "Celtic against Fascism" slogans and initiatives. Funny how they weren't such liberal lefties previously. If TFIO is anti-Irish and therefore racist, so are all the IRA and rebel songs since, by their new precedent, anti-British sentiment must also therefore be racist. If they deny that the British deserve the same rights and protection as the Irish, then they are doubly racist for their standard is prejudicial against the British.

Hypocrisy and irony in their identity and conduct were never phenomena they were ever going to be aware of. They really are that delusional.

Speaking of TFIO, Is the wee traitor from Castlemilk Ray Houghton?

It was the Advocaat era that killed us. All the money spent in that period without recouping anywhere near the figures spent.

shocking thing to me about the advocaat era is we actually got more money in than people think.

2.5m for bjorklund & 4m for gattuso right away,

8.5m for gio,

4m for reyna,

3m for albertz,

3.5m for johannsen,

4m for amato,

3.5m for guivarch,

3m for miller,

plus millions for guys like tugay, hendry, gayle etc.

of course this isn't as much as we spent but we still got more money in than people think too.

50 million in at least just over those couple of seasons.

Not sure about the rest of them but didn't Gattuso leave us for £1m to Salernitana then something like £7m the following summer to AC Milan?

I'd be interested to know just how that could be done.
