I try to avoid those who really should be avoided but I caught the report of Peter Lawwell’s Sky TV interview on their website yesterday. The “No summer sales” headline was misleading in itself as our chief exec actually said “there is no real necessity to sell players now”.
We are a solvent and well-run football club, there is no real, or imagined, necessity to sell, but there is an enormous leap between this status and “no summer sales”. All clubs, not just Celtic, sell when an offer exceeds their valuation for a player and they believe the money could be more productively redeployed elsewhere. There is no necessity for Manchester City to sell players, not until the oil runs out in the Middle East, anyway, but they may still sell.
Best part of the article was from Charlie Nicholas, “I’m a bitter idiot. Listen, I’ll prove it…..”
I’ve translated that quote from the vernacular.
Loved newco Rangers accounts. £3.5m in the bank on 31 December, £1.5m loan since, so they have £5m to operate until the season ticket money comes in, which will just be enough, but cash burn is running at over £1m per month; close to £15m a year.
£30m-£50m is not enough.

Outstanding post. The general idea that the author is trying to get at, you could apply and compare the running of deidco and Celtic over the last few decades.

I welcome more informed CQNers, well, informing me BUT
am I correct to continually point out TO Sevcovians that Sir Minty via MIH etc at one point when things were going belly up, owed , via borrowings, loans etc close to £800 MILLION pounds.. ?
I often tell this and Sevco mob don’t like it. But I recall reading how BOS chums lent minty huge amounts in a short space of time..
SMSM forget the origins of the liquiDation..
Lovin every day being a Celtic fan..

Thank you for all the nice comments about my wee mam she’s resting with my father about twenty yards away from wee Jinky which is a nice comforting thought for me and my brother thank you once again for your kind thoughts
Jinky will be bouncing that ball and up to all sorts of nonsense!
HH jamesgang
Boab1888, my condolences on the passing of your Mam.
Keep the good times in your mind.
I know what you mean, but if I told my wife it was porn rather than CQN she’d cut something off, and I don’t mean internet access:-)
