    There is a process. You bhoys who have jumped to the option of last resort have done so in a manner that your absence can easily be attributed to other factors.

     

     

    I repeat – the Green Brigade achieved more in a matter of minutes yesterday than a years worth of CQN posts from NegAnon, yourself, TGM and his ineffective scatter gun posting style, Ernie etc etc

     

     

    Am I wrong?

    Like many in here it’s all negativity, not one positive thing do you post about CFC, not one, there are things that need sorted of course there are, but ffs, try and enjoy yourself for one day, your always in a bad dark place with agendas, sack him, stop this, don’t go to the gams, take your support away, hit them where it hurts, on and on and on and on, take a day off ffs mate.

  4. CultsBhoy can not relate to Celtic Board ambitions on or off the park on

    Deila cut a barely credible figure post match as he urged fans, players and management team to stick together… Meanwhile he is planning his departure. As I say barely credible.

     

     

    Someone posted yesterday it will be a strange celebration st the end of the season. Paul67 has urged us to delay the post mortem until the season’s end.

     

     

    Meanwhile fans are being expected to believe Moyes and Keane are being lined up.

     

    Best I can possibly see will be Stevie Clark with a ‘face’ as his no 2

  5. the glorious balance sheet on

    Tony Donnelly67-

     

     

    You say Peter Lawwell is doing a “grand job.”

     

     

    Can you please give me specific examples of achievements/ things he is doing that back up this assertion that he is doing a grand job. Even better if you have any examples that justify a £1 million per year remuneration package for a CEO of a business turning over £40 to 50 million a year.

     

     

    I’m thinking there will be lots of specific examples you’ll have where Mr Lawwell has specifically inspired or delivered –

     

     

    – rising turnover

     

    – rising attendances and matchday revenues

     

    – improved TV deals

     

    – sustained and progressive improvements in the first team and youth system

     

    – better governance and transparency in how the game is governed in Scotland

     

    – better engagement and improved supporter/ club relations

     

     

    These are all things within mr Lawwell’s control and sphere of influence as Celtic CEO and as a member of the SFA professional game board, so you’ll have lots of examples of how “big Peter” is doing a grand job, right?

     

     

    I’m all ears.

    I think it was either Colm Toibin (Catholic Tribes of Europe) or Tim Pat Coogan (Wherever Green is Worn) who wrote that tbe Irish emigrants who chose Scotland were the least likely to do well.

    The scenario you paint is not unrealistic. A good manager, serious investment, and I believe we can be a force again.

     

     

     

    The question is: will the board (ie, Dermot Desmond) sanction a deviation from the strategy of the last 4 years?

     

     

    Problem is that downsizing has been taking place for thirteen years.

  8. TGM,

     

     

    Gooooooood Morning,

     

     

    I thought you were an atheist. Why should any for or anti God believing concern remotely bother you ?

     

     

    Hail, Hail to you.

    Its, no Desmond, Lawwell or the board who are to blame.

     

    It’s the paying Celtic supporters who have, unwittingly financed

    I’m under no illusion that my non attendance will effect change at Celtic.

     

     

    But I won’t contribute to a Club that is prepared to go along with the same Club narrative.

     

     

    It’s not the Celtic I supported. If it ever was I would never have been a supporter.

     

     

    I’d rather spend my money on stuff like this.

    Always good to hear from you.

     

     

    Imo the only thing the GB will take from CQN will be our spelling.

     

     

    Hail, Hail to you.

  14. THE GLORIOUS BALANCE SHEET on 25TH APRIL 2016 10:34 AM

     

     

    Explain how TV deals are within PLs control? I’m interested because I thought they were collectively bargained by the SPFL.

  15. Yesterday, I went along looking for a reaction to last Sunday and got served up a drab, lethargic draw. In the midfield, we are second to every ball and there is a real lack of purpose and drive to our play. A performance typical of this season.

     

     

    I am not going to be disingenuous to Aberdeen, they operate at a fraction of our budget and for ¾ of season kept the pressure on, however, I am relieved they fallen away at this crucial point in the season. We should comfortably limp our way to 5 in a row. I for one, I am not going to be celebrating the league win with any gusto. It doesn’t feel like we are worthy champions, more like we are collecting it by default. Apart from being one nil down to Hearts, we haven’t shown any metal this season and been found wanting in most big games. Don’t get me wrong, I will be glad when its delivered, simply from the point of view of getting our ducks in a row for next season. I have essentially written this season off. This may seem overly negative to some but my positivity is in looking forward. I really feel this will be a turning point for us.

     

     

    The tribute act fans are all in fine voice and full of confidence, however, under the bonnet, they are a still basket case of a club. Our club may feel rudderless and shambolic right now, the one saving grace is we are in a very recoverable position. Get our house in order quick and we will easily see off any challenge from the bile. Dare I say, here we go to 10 in a row…..

    Ah Kev, took the easy way out there…

     

     

    For any boycott to work, it needs to be visible. Empty seats yesterday will still be attributed to other factors.

     

     

    You bhoys like to justify doing nothing by telling us that you don’t give money to the PLC.

     

     

    How about instead of telling us what you don’t do, tell us about what you do actually do?

     

     

    I’ll save you the hassle…NOTHING.

     

     

    Real change won’t be influenced by those who stay away and sit quietly at home hoping for things to get better,

    TD67

     

     

    Im not negative at all…we will win the league, of that ive no doubt.

     

    There will be changes.

     

    Change is inevitable….Celtic will be here when PL, you, and me are gone.

     

    So…Cheer up…once we get rid of Pedro, we might even be able to beat Sevco next time:)

    I’ll have you know I went to KFC yesterday. Bought a burrito.

     

     

    Please get on the hymn sheet.

     

     

    This is a conspiracy of left wing Celtic groups. The Trust, The GB and us bloggers you referenced. We meet underground once a week to plan the whole thing. We have banners to the dozen ready for any situation. Although we don’t have a dictionary.

     

     

    Cheers anyhoo.

  19. My friends in Celtic,

     

     

    Off oot now.

     

     

    Thanks for the civilised debate this morning. Be nice.

     

     

    We’re on the road againcsc.

    KEVJ

     

     

    In 1994,the board didn’t have the reserves of cash to outlast a boycott.

     

     

    This lot do,there is plenty of room for cost cutting to reduce expenditure to cope with it.

     

     

    This time,a boycott will hurt the club,and damage its future,before it can do the same to the board.

  21. Bobby

     

     

    It was good of the team to assist the fans in bhoycotting the final st Hampden. Did I forget to mention they to are on the underground CFC lefty crew.

     

     

    MWD :)

  22. BOBBY MURDOCH’S CURLED-UP WINKLEPICKERS on 25TH APRIL 2016 10:45 AM

     

     

    Agreed. If he’s minded too The Great Desmondo could survive any length of economic siege the fans could subject him too.

     

     

    What he probably wouldn’t be prepared to put up with is public embarrassment either from association with a desperately failing Club, or from fans dogging his steps demanding change on his public appearances at the golf course or race track.

    TRAD88

     

     

    I can see that nothing less than a full scale flan insurrection on the SFA, is going to satisfy you.

     

    Let me say this….you want to protest about the shambles at CP, i will be right there with you.

     

    Similarly….if you want to protest outside Hampden against the corruption in Scottish football, give me a shout, i will join you.

  26. SydneyTim says sack Lawell now on

    Small squad Keep costs low

     

     

    Backbone of team highly experienced and paid pros

     

    Backed up with 3 or 4 youths

     

     

    It’s something that paul67 and I agreed on about 7 years ago

     

     

    But Peter Lawell would not pay the going rate for experienced pros

     

    Instead we got a huge squad and players sitting in stands earning large salaries and money down drain looking for projects as the team suffered

  27. BOBBY MURDOCH’S CURLED-UP WINKLEPICKERS on 25TH APRIL 2016 10:53 AM

     

     

    It would be the quickest way to get something done.

    Doing nothing should not be an option.

     

     

    I hear this line occasionally – that Celtic are not the club they grew up supporting. Its the old nostalgia – things are not as good as they used to be.

     

     

    Yet things have rarely been perfect off field at Celtic, Ernie.

     

     

    Withdrawing support,and doing nothing about it, when the club is clearly important to you is an ineffective tactic. And that was my whole point – the Green Brigade got a staement across yesterday that some posters on here have been trying to for 1 year or more.

     

     

    Given the above, a re-evaluation of tactics may be in order.

     

     

    Action, any action, would be a start.

  29. GREEN PINTA 08.25…………….THE misspelling of LAWWELS name as highlighted by the daily retard was probably deliberate by the Green Brigade knowing that it would annoy him……..then again on the otherhand maybe it was an honest mistake……I was at the game and to be honest I couldn’t along with others give a toss on how he would wish his name spelt……maybe he should take the high road

    A cabal of communist/socialist/pacifists with a penchant for sewing machines, flags and banners, and world domination.

    Aye,mate. They did us proud.

     

     

    Seriously,I’m as p’d off as anyone at their displays for most of this season. All of them need to ask themselves whether they are proud of themselves this year,few can honestly answer yes.

     

     

    The others should be told to get a hold of their agent and find a new club.

     

     

    We have had poor management on and off the field,but the players should still have been good enough to provide much better performances than they have.

    Well,one thing would come out of it. Your mugshot.

  35. Have you heard one utterance from DD or Bankier that is likely to stem the negativity

     

     

    No I haven’t, same as I don’t hear any other clubs main share holders or board members , you think they guys not doing a good job? That’s up to you, me? I don’t see any problems at all, only agendas.
