Bogus issues and a Good Old Celtic debate

1020

I’ve not spent a lot of time online this week (work sometimes creeps in) but can’t believe the amount of traction that notion that Sevco would somehow be able to acquire SFA membership of a dead club, with all associated benefits, but be in a position to dictate set terms on how past misdeeds of Rangers would be recorded.

This is a bogus debate which serves only to deflect from the more serious issues facing Sevco, namely, do they have circa £25m to pay their way this season?  If not, their pedantic views of disciplinary matters are moot, although they may be used as a principled excuse to fold a football club.

On more positive matters……….

Tony Hamilton asked me into the Celtic TV to discuss various issues surrounding the club.  We spoke about how recent events elsewhere have had a galvanising impact on supporters of Celtic and other clubs, where Celtic’s future should be.  I also gave a breakdown of what the death of Rangers would mean financially to Celtic, with or without Champions League group stage qualification, talked about how it would benefit the entire Scottish game if we found a new league to play in, and the great atmosphere we have at Celtic Park these days – which you can experience if you buy a season ticket, which you absolutely-without-a-doubt-should!

Do it now.  The video is below:

    Peak debt is the maximum the debt hits at any period in the year.

     

    It can include bank overdraft and bank loans.

    You can wear what you want as long as nobody has paid you to wear the clothes you have on

     

     

    Is this a free democratic country still?

    Of course-it includes ALL debts.

     

     

    I was trying to explain how the club,which in general terms is fairly debt-free,can nevertheless have such a huge debt on paper,and that the reason is advance sales,which amount effectively to money lent to the club and repaid in kind by the club with every applicable game.

     

     

    It ISN’T money borrowed from a bank,or similar,which has to be repaid with interest.

  7. Ron Bacardi,

     

    cheers pal,my brother would have been early 80s,

     

    after your time am afraid

  8. seen pl was attibuted as saying that season ticket sales are down on this time last year, on stv, think he might be telling lies, would he?

     

     

    i guess if he showed a little ambition fans might have more faith and might be more likely to buy more season tickets, just saying like

    I watched your interview. Fantastic!

     

     

    Here’s an idea: for some of our responsibilities towards Scotland, howsabout we leave an U21 team or similar in the league whilst we ply our trade down South?

    What you are talking about is deferred income, where season tickets are received in the bank in advance of games played. This is classified as a creditor. The club owe you and me 21 games for our up front payment of their season ticket which is sitting pretty in the clubs bank account.

     

     

    Im afraid debt does include money borrowed from the bank and is normally classified as net debt.

     

     

    Trust me on this, been brainwashed in it for a lot of years.

    Not sure what it’s like back in Scotland, but over here Sky Italia have dedicated 12 channels to cover EVERY sport represented! Will watch some athletics, football, boxing and, ahem, the female beach volleyball! Apart from that, forget it

    Have we really got so little respect for the people running the club that we think they would tell lies about the actual numbers of ticket sales ?

     

     

    Do we really believe they are so dishonest ?

     

     

    If so, we are in a bad place.

  15. Seems the malign influence of Scotland’s MIBs is everywhere.

     

    According to Prime Minister David Cameron, Korean flag cock up was an ‘Honest mistake.

    If I remember correctly it is not so long ago that match day attendance figures issued by Celtic were based on numbers of season tickets and not actual bodies in attendance.

    Quonno,

     

    That is a perfectly reasonable way to give the number of people who have paid to attend that event.

     

    I am at a loss to see how that is being untruthful.

  21. Jobo posted the number of ST sold around about June and the feeling at the time was that it looked healthy enough, if I remember correct there was a mini comp to guess who was nearest the actual figure, perhaps Jobo can oblige again?
