Celtic this afternoon released their interim accounts for the six-month period to 31 December 2016, the figures are as rewarding as expected.
Income was up an incredible 94% on the corresponding period in 2015 to £61.2m (2015: £31.4m). Profit from operations reached £21.4m (2015: £1.6m), although profit on player transfers fell to £2.0, (2015: £12.6m).
Investment in player registrations for the period was £9.5m, not that much higher than 2015’s £6.1m.
To put some perspective on these figures, income for the whole of last season was £52.0m, £9m less than we earned in the first six months of this season. Results against Lincoln Red Imps, Astana and Hapoel Be’er Shiva in the summer have had a huge impact on the club.
The lack of Champions League football during the second half of the campaign will see income drop off, but these figures provide the first solid evidence that income will to £80m this season for the first time, comfortably £50m more than any other Scottish club will earn.
The figures also reflect a significant uplift in sponsorship deals, which kicked-in this season – well done to all concerned. The post-Brexit vote battering of the pound didn’t do any harm either for a club earning so many euros…….

Are you an irate loose cannon? You seriously need to calm down son. If this is the way you respond to banter on the net, you should take a break from it.
Good night, I don’t and won’t engage with foul mouthed aggressive hooligans.
Over and OUT.
Big Peat don’t get drawn in by the Aussie drunk as he reverts to tho by his threats of violence.
That other crack heed awe naw is the identical in fact I think they are both the same people. Celtic fans my &&ss
Emilio is the Unluckiest Man @ Celtic.
What a Brilliant backup left back.
Macjay:
You found the response what?
CELTIC CHAMPS ELECT on 7TH FEBRUARY 2017 11:53 AM
Aye he obviously needs time away from the keyboard. Moderators should ban him or give him a wee holiday.
There is absolutely NO excuse for making threats.
Disgraceful behaviour.
Emilio could have left, he decided to stay.
Something is really Burning within the Hearts and the Minds.

BIG PEAT OF ISLAY✝::
You try to deflect with your link… pathetic.
You resort to the hun mantra of it was only ‘banter’ pathetic.
You call me foul mouthed???
Your prerogative.
Wait till you meet me.
Celtic is incredibly Powerful.
KITALBA on 7TH FEBRUARY 2017 11:58 AM
Listen son. You’ve had your chance.
Why don’t you post your address so I can pass on your threats to the Aussie polis?
You are an aggressive foul mouthed hooligan.
Don’t bother responding unless you supply me with your contact details so I can pass on your threats of violence.
And in jumps the Scottish xenophobic who is proud to call himself a racist. God help us.
Backed up by TD who when got out thought, and out talked, by an university educated teacher, had nothing to offer other than to swing his fists. Hypocrite, chancer, loser.
BIG PEAT OF ISLAY✝:
You coward, you are all mouth. PAUL67 has my permission to give you my phone number.
I don’t think you live in Brisbane. I think you are full of shit.
Abandon ship. I blame the slump.
Night night all. :-)
Sorry Bhoys, but Im still offline and using my local library computer to post on here just now. I hope to have broadband in my new home next month ?
In the meantime I have heard that possibly CQN is asking for supporters to provide any stories of Lisbon 1967 for publication in the near future ?
I should point out that maybe the guy who told me, did say that it may not be CQN but some other Celtic site ?
Can any member on here who I have met or have contact details for ( email but especially mobile numbers etc), could text me to let me know 2 things ?
Firstly if not CQN who are asking for the Lisbon stories, but what site is it ?
Secondly, what I have is a great newspaper page from April 30th 1967, in which there are photos and stories from some Celtic fans ( including my dad ), describing how they intend to travel to Lisbon.
If any CQN member who knows my mobile etc, can text me, about this as I would like to provide a copy of this newspaper page as a wee contribution ?
I would also need advise on who to send a copy to by post ?
cHEERS.
I do hope to be a regular again fairly soon, hopefully next month ( March P) ?
Hail Hail
BIG PEAT OF ISLAY✝:
So you slink stage left after your revolting post and attempts at deflection
Somehow I did not expect anything less from a fascist slug such as you.

I’ve made plenty of inappropriate responses to remarks,on here and in real life.
Most of us have at one time or another.
Yours was just wrong. To continue to needle KITALBA is even worse
Your conscience is your own,but I would not be happy with the original comment had I made it. And I’ve made some right crackers over the years!
It’s your shout,and my last comment on the subject.
In Sri Lanka on a holiday/charity mission, found some time to relax and came to CQN after a lapse. It has been depressing to find this argument going on with the quick and stupid recourse to such abusive language. The Celtic Community? This kind of thing gives ammunition to those who hate us. It’s depressing especially when the club and its followers should all be revelling in this season’s success.
Celtic have a Manager, that first and foremost, is Humble.
There is no amount of Money that can Buy that.
So get Working harder Leighser, a lot harder. ;))
THE VERY BEST YOU CAN BE, Leigh.
Go for World Class.
Brendan Believes in you.

What does that mean?
Have you not read All of my comments over the years, followed all of my links?
Hey I don’t blame you.
To be honest, and excuse my ignorance, I needed you to interpret that remark. I would like to think that, though angry, I would not rise to such bait and, in losing my rag, possibly lose the upper ground. What does violence or the threat of violence bring except for some reflexs satisfaction? But it’s possible I would react in a way closer to yours.
