Cash windfall for Celtic fans

998

Readers of Celtic Quick News will know that our club has not been out of debt since Fergus gathered up our cash in 1994 and set about building the new stadium.  19 years later, with the mad arms race which consumed Scottish football over, we stand on the verge of coming out of debt.

The full consequences of this will not be known for years to come but the first material benefit is the £100 discount per season ticket Celtic announced today.  We’re no longer in debt, we can team-build in a measured and sustainable manner, and with Champions League money in the bank, Celtic have cut prices.

I know season ticket holders who missed out on the Barcelona, Spartak and Benfica games as, on top of everything else, they could not afford Champions League tickets.  If we get back to the group stage next season, supporters will be able to buy their season tickets and Champions League group tickets for less money than they paid for SPL tickets this season.

The return of the £50 under-13 ticket is also very welcome, along with a tiered level for older children.  With so many competing distractions, it is important that we bring as many young people into our community as possible.

Peter Lawwell’s comments underline the importance of bums on seats to everything that happens at Celtic, “The backing of our fans has, as ever, been crucial.  Domestically and in Europe they have once again been right with us and we felt it important that we rewarded their commitment by making this gesture”.

More welcome good news for the Champions.

  1. !!Bada Bing!! on

    Barca playing today on St Jordi day. That’s like Celtic playing on St Paddys or Rangers on Halloween

  2. 3rd Div clubs led by Peterhead are about to go to court to block rangers promotion and get them thrown out the league. They will object on grounds that RFC have broken SFL’s rules on transparency of ownership and CW still being involved with RFC. A new vote will be proposed that allows RFC back into the SFL Div 3 only when all matters are cleared up . Twitter rumour…

  3. Celtic reduce SB prices today. Meanwhile, over at Sevco, pensioners will get a free pass.

    I agree that we’re due a return also for our support.

     

     

    On the other matter I know you’re a caring person and thought you should know.

     

     

    Mind you there were some strange looks when you hugged me in the lounge after the game:o)

    The intro ended with “Confused, you will be.” which is also fitting

     

    for the soap opera which is the The rangers

    A son of Dan It would be great if that happened but I dont see it.They have to many masonic friends throughout Scotland for that to happen but we can dream.H.H.

  9. Peterhead have hated them from the start as they were favourites to come up until Sevco appeared.

  10. And the goalfest begins.

     

     

    Does anyone happen to know the record aggregate score in a European Cup semi final. I’m sure a German team was involved but can’t for the life of me remember which wee diddy team they hammered?

  11. You wait half an hour for a bus – and then two come along at once.

     

     

    …and they both break down.

     

     

    HH!!

  12. Andy Townsend doing everything he can not to criticize Barca. Seems like he can’t bear the thought of a German team winning.

  15. At some point I expect some Cockernee chap to walk up to the Yorkshireman and shout – ‘You’re only suppose to blow the bloody doors off!’

     

     

    And isn’t there a bit with a bus at the end? And a precipice?

     

     

    And a song about the self-preservation society?

     

     

    Hee hee…

  16. Valentine's Day on

    Bus driver buying the hun………makes sense.

     

    white collar gangster, sell’s tae blue collar gangster.

  17. Just read Iniesta.

     

     

    “After Celtic I don’t fear anywhere, if you can go and play at a full Celtic Park on Champions League night then you can play anywhere. “The fans create a crazy atmosphere like nothing I have ever heard- I doubt even the Allianz Arena can compete with that.”

  18. Munich right up for this ….working soooo hard …Barca no getting a spare second on the ball

     

     

    I wonder , can Munich keep this up for 90 mins

  19. gene’s a bhoy’s name
