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. Dani Alves again the weak link in the Barca team, giving cheap possession away up the field. You’ll notice that Messi hardly ever passes to him, even though he’s often the easiest pass.

    Fassreifen – care to clarify that? They have come out in the past complaining about the Spanish clubs not paying their taxes. A bit hypocritical if they have been doing the same!

  3. How on earth can the official behind the goal not see that latent foul which led to Bayern’s 3rd?

  4. Never thought I would see Barca @300/1 with 20mins to go.

     

     

    Think Barca have been outplayed but looks to me as if they’ve been on the wrong side of 2 decisions that led to goals against them.

    Ah, right…..not Barca / Messi’s night…

  6. What’s the point in the officials at the side of the goals , don’t think I have ever seen them give a decision .

     

    Second goal offside and now ignoring an obvious foul to allow the third to stand , shocking .

  7. Yet again Platini’s men behind the goal show themselves to be a useless waste of space.

  8. T4, their President arrested and bailed earlier today for tax evasion on a large scale, rumours that other key members of club were also involved.

  9. At 2-0…… I thought Barca where still right in it

     

     

    3-0… Cannae see them coming back from this

     

     

    Btw…I don’t think Munich will bully RM as easily

    Absolutely….it was a blatant block…

  11. Can’t believe Villanova hasn’t made a sub. Pedro & Sanchez have been dreadful and Messi is playing on one leg. Nearly 80 minutes and Plan A most definitely isn’t working

    Fassreifen – interesting! They have painted themselves as squeaky clean.
