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.

    Barcelona 10/1 to win this game with bet365 according to their half time advert.

    24 goals were scored over the 4 semi-final ties with one (now defunct) team conceding 50% of the total.

    Media talking death penalty for young lad it seems they framed for Boston bombing, trial by media on behalf of government disgusting

  10. All the signs are Thems are in serious difficulties, why would anyone offer or promise to buy challs shares when there’s no great certainty the current company is even going to survive?

     

     

    Is laundering the same as cleansing?

  11. Bayern have chosen a very attacking team and the forwards are working so hard . Verging on awesome!

    Puma = Poor man’s Adidas.

    ‘Soap’ was regarded as so subversive that Ronnie Raygun’s first act in office was to have it taken off the air. No kidding. The crazy world we live in.

     

    The thing I remember most about the show was the flying baby.

     

    As far as I could tell it was all just nuts.

     

    Obviously RR was seeing someting deeper and more dangerous than the rest of us.

    Does anyone know what improved “family stand area” means? Genuine question.

  17. Back to Basics - Glass Half Full on

    Genuinely terrific gesture by the club. I’ll be buying an ST for my kids.

     

     

    In other news I see another fit and proper person is joining another club.

     

     

    What a shower. An organisation without shame.

     

     

    PS – tonight’s ref is a homer.

     

     

    Hail Hail

  18. Strikes me that since we beat Barca they have become unnerved, not an accusation I would ever have put against such a great team before.

     

     

    In addition to us exploiting their weakness in the air, I have also noted that they have changed their style of play since our game, and that they are far more willing to pump a ball into the box. Prior to playing us (and during the game at CP ) they were extremely reticent to the high ball being played into their forwards preferring to play neat one twos to create an opening n the deck.

     

     

    Watching tonight’s game and also the game against PSG I don’t believe the change in tactics has benefitted them.

     

     

    About 2 minutes after I post this Barca will score a goal from a cross ball :))
