Michel Platini’s Financial Fair Play initiative at Uefa has been one of the more inspiring developments at the top of our game for decades. It brought spending into line with income throughout the English game and punished what Platini called financial doping.
It has been so effective, Platini now promises to relax the rules. The blame does not all sit with Platini. Uefa are dealing with 10 legal challenges to the rules, with complainant clubs citing European Law in their defence. The big football powers are split. The English appear in favour of FPP (Manchester City aside), while many stressed clubs across Europe are in opposition.
The concept of living within your means is still resisted in our game, not just in barred hold-outs in Scotland.

That’s the final straw for this 50 year old Celtic man.
The silence from Celtic was just too much.
I won’t pay the charade that is Celtic these days. In years gone by the extra hurdles they conspired to place in our way actually made us stronger.
Not now, Celtic’s custodians are part of a pantomime, partners in a charade, that many fail to act on despite the continued, repeated and incredible evidence before you.

Ernie, on the contrary.
It was a heartfelt, committed statement.

It misrepresented the argument, intentionally or otherwise.

Really? Read your post again and see where it contradicts itself.

Bhrutus, The Show us the deed clubs deeds I believe.
Not the daft as a hairbrush variety.
Someone who heard it may correct me, but I think I got the gist.

And you thought the SFA and uefa were corrupt.
Jobo becomes the predictor number cruncher at the start of the year.
By May he’s only gone and ein the Champions’ League of Predictions!
Blinkin flip as bobbio would say – even Campbell Ogilvie might have blushed at that one!

Dd – tried one of them once.
I know why it’s,called a bong.
I took it and went ‘bong’
Unable to move from the chair for hours…..
Deary me……
Dena
That would be brilliant thank you.
Ernie, CRC,
I disagree.
Again.
But interpretation is all.
The custodians are not Celtic, only custodians.
In the same way those in charge in times gone by were, and they will leave.
Whether forced to, or not.
Tom’s intent, I believe, was that he will support his club come hell or high water.
Whether any injury is caused externally or internally.
By the SFA or those charged with looking after the club.
CRC, emotional commitment causes contradiction.

Copper red is what the ladies in my family call their hair colour.
The bhoys are all brown or fair strangely. :)
Celtic never got me a pay rise. Ever. FACT.
I’m done with them. Complicit iny pay suppression. Basturts…..
DD….
Hope you enjoyed the bong ;) the thing is, the bassas are going to creep back in and proclaim it was just a blip in their history.
I have been hearing this p**h from them since day one and it’s growing arms and legs now.
The more we ignore it or even welcome it, the more it will be accepted.
No more, they need to be outed for all that has went on and is going on. Enough is Enough. HH

It is ok to disagree, partuclatly when you suffer from Amidobaldeitis

Celtic have not stood up for fans shafted by PPI schemes. Disgraceful. I won’t be back.

An international footballer by all accounts now:-)
True story btw.
I am pretty convinced that two englishmen were placed up here before this debacle kicked off-Doncaster n Regan-have you ever seen such a pair of ideal ,compliant patsies-a clueless duo-or more likely-just paid yesmen-lining pockets that their hands are permanently stuck in-as for Campbell Ogilvie!!-im on the brink of cutting scottish football out my days-its become so unhealthy-they were never interested in football in the 1st place-Celtic are to be proud of-but this countries rewriting history
Did dodgy Dave find £50 million to steady the ship?
Friday, will make CP, not before.
Not work btw, Nephews birthday, couple of good Tims, so not missing going to see them.
Will be there for the start, which is more than you will!

Dave King says his Rangers investment was dependent on fit and proper clearance. Different to what he said in March:
http://t.co/hbQLyuKxXC
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Asked to confirm whether Rangers had the funds to pay Ashley back his £5m if shareholders required the club to do so, King replied: “Of course we do. It’s always been part of the plan, but it’s just a question of whether it’s an appropriate thing to do.”
so paying back a loan may not be an appropriate thing to do……….nothing changes down govan way

If I dont make the corner before kick off(traffic dependant) I’ll be there after match and get the sheets from you
HH
Big Cup Winners,
Nothing has changed. They robbed the Treble. Sorry to say they will do the same with 10 in a Row.
Honest Mistakes.
Given King’s antecedents, he wouldn’t get a job in a bank or even the Sky Call Centre in Livingston…credit checks etc.
I don’t know how he would get a Visa for the US given his criminal past.
And yet we are supposed to believe he is a Fit and Proper Person.
Only in Scotland.

I dislike them intensely. ;)
To hate is to sin.
Hail Hail bro.
Away for a bubble. Paul Weller on XFM is good.

A huge wave of entitlement….50 ft high, is heading our way.
Rainjurz ur back…..God and St Francis save me….and im an atheist.
I cannot stand the prospect of those bigot rats turning up at CP.
The damned haunt the world, there is no stopping them..
After today’s shameless verdict from the SFA my anger towards them was out of character for me, had to calm down. So I watched a movie, which I enjoyed until Mrs franco07 said.. You do know you have just watched………rise of the planet of the apes! Doh. Hail Caesar. Chimpion of the world.

I have your ticket, so don’t think so :-)
