I'm as fucked off at all this as everyone else but it's the league we play in don't think they had any choice with the figures being touted £7m deficit? You mean the one from where we’ve since made £4m+ from Gerrard £11m from Patterson? £4m ticket sales from Dortmund and Red Star plus prize money? corbyloyal84 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get that mate honestly I think it's ridiculous this is happening but the figures being quoted I don't think they was ever gonna turn it down its the way football is nowadays unfortunately Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

EMRFC 4,853 Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 So how much money would this directly make us? Because I’m not sure it does anything except actually harm the Old Firm games and it’s reputation. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RDB14 2,810 Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 Find the response to this a bit OTT. We have played in kids tournaments before where celtic were involved, not sure what the issue is with doing the same with our reserves and being paid a fortune for it. Seen someone criticising Bisgrove for getting us too many sponsors in here too..... his job is literally to maximise our commercial income. As much as this is never a friendly, fans in Australia will be happy to see the team and we will get paid a load of money for a nothing game. Whilst many would rather we didn't play them, the reaction and hysteria is a bit over the top.... it's not like we are flush with cash either. This could give us the money to fund another signing or sign an extension for a key player. If we were coasting the league I doubt anyone would care too much about this.

SeparateEntityMyArse 54,482 Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 Is there a break down of who is playing who? I heard it was 2 games each, with 4 teams involved. Are they definitely proposing we play the scum rather than the 2 Oz teams? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prso's headband 35,988 Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 Double what we get absolutely incredible business from Bisgrove again. We’re bigger than them, and are champions and we’ve got less than half what they do. That man is an absolute cunt and needs to be removed from the club today Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

FWIW, I wouldn't be surprised if there are differing fees for the two clubs based on projected incomes, merch and various marketing stuff etc from the games but not sure it would be as big a gap as that.

Supersonic 4,658 Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 Incredible that the board are upset with the fans' reaction. As out of touch as can fucking be. If (and I stress, if) it's right they're getting double what we are, even more proof this board truly know their place. HG5 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sassaaaa 11,406 Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 This has came about because of where their manager is from , they are behind it and calling the shots and we do as we are told. Also the money part of the trip is just bullshit , we could have arranged a far more glamorous 4 team tournament at Ibrox as all the leagues are closed , that would have made more cash than this shit.
