We don’t need to spend money to bring in quality, we do need to pay good money for their services, prob wages that Pedro won’t sanction, but we can get quality for free, and they will come to scotland for the right wages.
Teams like Malmo, Maribor, Leiga didn’t spend anything like we did, thing is, they didn’t waste what the spent.
They bought in enough quality to beat the likes of us, and get their hands on the honey pot.
While we wasted millions on projects and pish, but the bonus is secure.
Change the policy of jam and gems tomorrow, bring in old heads, pay them a decent wage, let the kids learn from them.
They are out there, Malmo and Maribor have them.

I fear for VVD in EPL……it won’t happen at Lawwell’s valuation.
Another Boumsong anyone?…….didn’t he get horribly exposed in EPL.
I think we might be stuck with him until the end of his contract and someone then might take a punt on a Bosman deal……
Unless Lawwell sells him for an ‘undisclosed ‘ fee to a Nomark EPL team….

Characters like that don’t deserve support from Celtic fans.

Cults bhoy. Then estimated CL pot of gold this year was 30m. Last year was 20m
So as you say PL has taken about 2m out the club in salary and cost our club about 50m in income lost

Evening all.
Grim night , life however for this Tim has a different perspective these last few days.
Disappointment still prevails though.
As long as Celtic PLC and profit are more important than success on the playing field
then the balance is wrong.
The manager needs to be more pragmatic
when playing in Europe,no doubt.
The overall strategy is prepare to fail.
We reap what we sowed.
Opportunity lost.

Ghuys…..wise up….. Celtic work on a five year business plan….that plan is based on Europa league qualification. That’s fair enough……. Champions league qualification is looked on as a bonus…..Now……if we’d
Qualified……did you expect stellar signings?…… It wouldn’t have happened…….the extra dosh would have been put towards bonus’s, ground upkeep, directors dividends, etc. now we have the Europa league…….down goes bonus’s, ground upkeep and,…..believe it or not…..directors dividends. What we’ll probably get now…..is a couple of signings…that might get you interested……the sale of 1 or 2 big hitters…….and we start again…..that’s life……it’s the world we live in…..accept it or get tae….had we qualified….we’d still get “projects” or Aston Villa rejects…..I’m not saying I’m glad we didn’t qualify….but no chance now of an embarrassing beating at the hands of a team sponsored by a caring board
bmcd48 on
Gutted at the result tonight
Agree with Chris Sutton that Europa league is our level
Teams we could meet Tottenham, Ajax , Shalke , Liverpool, Monaco, Napoli, Marseille, Anderlecht
This is no minor league. Just undervalued by the CL. Bring it on

Don’t really know where to start tonight and as a result will probably come across as incoherent.
Team selection : couldn’t help thinking when I saw the team that Ronnie had given in to the boo boys. If izzy was your first choice lb last week what has changed since then? Likewise Efe has been first change at RB all season. Not blaming Janko btw he was what he is an exciting player going forward but as big Johann said not a RB.
Likewise with CF I hoped that Cifti would get the gig as he can win fre kicks hold the ball up and for 60-70 mins would have been my choice then bring Griff on to run the tired legs. Makes me think the pressure got to Ronnie, which in turn makes me think has he reached his limit?

Very depressing but very true nonetheless. One glimmer of hope will be next season when PL gets his much missed Sevco back and (smashed up toilets and seats aside) will welcome the new challenge by sanctioning another £5m plus to be stuck in the transfer kitty.
Big Georges Fan Club - Hail, Hail, Wee Oscar on
HT – good point. Don’t like Sunday fitba – doesn’t work for many supporters.
Been a big Ronny fan, and certainly gave him a pass on last year’s debacle, but this was very, very poor in terms of team selelection, performance, attitude and organisation. Very poor performance from all concerned (apart from Wee Jimmy and Gordon).
Boyata looks absolutely rotten, by the way. And Charlie at left back instead of Lizzie was a complete and utter disaster.
See where you are coming from but disagree that it is RD who is the bad fit. Blame should be shared by all – tonight was testament to that in my view.
Hail hail. Have a good one pal :)

Not posted in a few years but thought what the heck? First off, prayers for TCR – I was absolutely sickened by what happened to you and my thoughts are with you and your family. Stay strong brother, you are loved.
What can you say about the match? Disappointing but it’s only a game. I couldn’t help but notice a few posters seem particularly upset, namely rudicantfail and mickeybhoy amongst others.
Guys, don’t take it so bad. Look in the mirror.
You could be a fat friendless hun whose idea of fun is trying to wind up celtic fans after a champions league defeat – when your best hope of a trophy is the petrofac cup!
Look in the mirror and see those red piggy eyes staring back at you. When was the last time you had sex? Do you think you ever will? And sex with yourself doesn’t count!
Look in the mirror. Your mother is also your sister who looks like your brother.
Look in the mirror. Any genuine celtic fan on here is laughing at you – the more sensitive ones pity you as they see you as damaged human beings but they are the nice ones. Your club died. Mr Custard owns your ass. Warbs will leave at the first chance. We signed a boyhood rangers fan who you were desperate for. And we only did it for a giggle.
Look in the mirror. Is this really how you want to spend the precious few moments you have on earth? Pretending to be a celtic fan when your own club is about to implode? I was down after the game but seeing your posts has cheered me up – sevco will never win the scottish league ever agaian. We are on our way to 10 in a row, Thank you!
But guys, you’re obviously good looking celtic fans so none of that applies to you!

Interesting to see so many recalling fondly the days and achievements of Gordon Strachan as Celric manager
I and several others of my acquaintance remember being on here and being slaughtered for defending him. Some of you have short memories.
Ronny Deila is our manager now and is entitled to our support. More importantly he is entitled to the support of those who appointed him.
I don’t expect him to get much before the current transfer window closes. Maybe those in charge of our club are fed up with people singing the 10 in a row song and will be trying to create a more level playing field.

Ronny will win the SPL and if Celtic have any true ambitions to play at a higher level then we will see what Celtic do to rise to that challenge. I hope we have a plan B however right now I don’t see where that will come from. Gutted but not surprised and that’s not good. HH GMB

How would you propose we get rid of DD.
He is the majority shareholder and probably has the support of even more proxies.
Do we all want him to put his own money in to buy players?
That would further increase his majority holdings.
Whichever way you look at it, fortunately or unfortunately, we are structured to stand on our annual revenues from ST sales.
It’s the fans who support signings and salaries, not some sugar daddy.
Margaret McGill on
Couch it paint it any way you want
The current Hun loving custodians have hamstrung Celtic in Europe permanently. A club with Celtics EPL driven turnover should at least have handled Malmo
However the truth of the matter is that our custodians are really not interested in the same objectives as its fans
One wants success on the park the other wants to dmhance their pension before the whole shithouse goes up in flames
Dallas Dallas where the heck is Dallas on
Bourne, Basel/Basle, have looked really good in Europe the past two or three seasons. They play a style which I think Ronny wants us to do.
They manage to get players from all over the world and don’t seem to have problems with getting work permits for these players.
We appear to be stuck in a dead end the now with no sign of advancing in any direction. Stuck in a footballing environment that doesn’t want us and our board’s lack of ambition to make some impct on the pitch in Europe.
The board have managed the club sensibly in an off the pitch business sense but as football is our main business, they have to come up with a better plan or policy than they have at the moment.
Our main business appears not be their priority. A bit more investment in the team please.

KTF. BTW,,Mr. Pastry,when you were congratulating yourself on your ‘forecast’ of the game you forgot to mention your desire to have CM in place instead of Izzy! As I told you VP’s taxi’s turning circle is less than his and I think I might be faster than him and I am getting on to Sunset Strip age.Sorry,young lhads not loads.Why can’t the fn thing print what you press?

Margaret – we spent far more on our players than Malmo. If you want us to spend even more money, then please tell us where it comes from. Is it debt? Or perhaps you’d like to make a donation.

“Rony admits Celtic were scared.”
These are the headlines all over Celticnewsnow.
Interested in what Rony’s fans think of that?
Far too many conditioned that it’s about money.
We don’t need to spend money to bring in quality, we do need to pay good money for their services, prob wages that Pedro won’t sanction, but we can get quality for free, and they will come to scotland for the right wages.
Teams like Malmo, Maribor, Leiga didn’t spend anything like we did, thing is, they didn’t waste what the spent.
