I don’t know what the commercial value of our summer games against Barcelona, Leicester City and Inter Milan are, but those three games are sure to dwarf the earnings we make from domestic media and prize money for the whole of next season.
TV rights for English Premier League football from next season will average just above £7m per game, that’s for each of the 10 games on the weekly card – Sweet Georgia Brown! The actual value of these varies enormously: Watford v Bournemouth has practically no commercial value, all the real value is added by games between big clubs – even the likes of Newcastle, who are a poor team, but one which many colours of football fans still want to watch.
In a different environment, TV rights for Celtic games would be north of that £7m per game figure (the increased exposure would also geometrically improve commercial rights values). Think what we could do with that kind of money…….. more paper towels in the gents, maybe, the possibilities are limitless!
Our position is far from unique, there are a dozen or so European teams of similar size who have been marginalised from what was once a meritocratic game, so change must (always) remain on our agenda. But for now, we have to make what we can from our role as the Celtic Globetrotters.

I like squirrels. Especially red ones that can be seen in abundance in the highlands. I’ve even mastered the art of looking at one without being distracted from everything else going on in my life..
I also like sitting at the back of the bus. There’s more leg room, and I learned at school the front of the bus cannae sing.
That said. This metaphorical bus were all supposed to be sitting at the back off. Well not me. I decide where I sit on the bus and always have done. Occasionally some numpty has suggested there might be a better place for me to sit than where I want to, but they have lasted a nano second in my life story.
That’s why I find it hard to accept that the action, or inaction, of any other person(s) has any impact on me/us or where I sit. I choose my seat. I always have and always will.
The Celtic board will do what they believe is best for the club. I’ll accept that or not depending on the circumstances and my own value set, but in no way will it determine where I park my behind.
I don’t understand why other think they don’t choose their own seat.
Lurkintim – nah Robin….just like those bassas!

Having met Delaneys I can confirm he could empty a pub.
But only cos he’d be taking every man, woman and fixtures n fittings to some mentol rave or similar gig where all and sundry may lose their minds and find some soul!

God bless & goodnight ;-))
I respect most peoples opinions on here but sorry, guys that come on here that don’t attend games but want to stick the boot in to my club don’t deserve respect.
Amazingly some who come on day after day without 1 good thing to say about us are astonishingly looking forward to going to SC semi finale.
You couldn’t mark their necks with a,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Its personal enrichment that is the problem.
[Not for me it isn’t. if the additional income all found its way into the Board’s pockets then that would be a problem, but most of the addition income would, as it does now be spent on players and other improvements. ]
Certain people are rather more worried about their own bank balances, than sporting integrity.
[Then putting a good entertaining team on the park with any extra income is a win win for everyone surely as that is reflected in rewards or are those working to do so not entitled to any reward if successful?]
I already pointed to the subtext of DD’s wonderful glorification of the cheats and bigots.
[His glorification was before the extent of cheating was realised as I heard it. Are you saying DD is a Rangers supporter or wants them as opponents because that is good for business? The former is absurd and the latter if that is what you think then has to consider that standing up to cheating is also good for business. That’s the cognitive dissonance point unless you really think DD is a Bluenose.]
We all know where DD stands.
[No you have your view although I’m not sure if its he’s a bluenose or a greedy bassa].
As for the rest of them….Do they even support Celtic?
I have my doubts. [Clearly]
As for Cognative Dissonance, im sure you realise that can be applied elsewhere…..Like at Celtic Park.
I seem to recall Prof Devine having to remind PL of the history of Celtic.
Does that count?
[Did I say anywhere Celtic were immune?]

Who is looking forward to the SC semi that doesn’t have a good word to say about us?
That is a scandal.

Auldheid. How about cos Celtic backed the corruption from the start. They backed the wrong horse.
And personal gain from cushy jobs at the sfa?
Or if not that then why the silence?

One word answer.
Provenance.
it has dictated the course taken, it has dictated the pace.
Whatever the outcome for Res12 even if it itself has been corrupted, the reason for the silence always was provenance.
When that veil is lifted it will all become clear.
Is DD Delaneys Dunky or Dermot Desmond….we demand to know ;-))

Why do you think our board are not taking this to UEFA.?
Remember Reagan said that Celtic had been given all the answers from the SFA.

As far as DD goes…id say Money is the prime motivator.
And can we dispense with the cognitive dissonance spiel please.
Its not really accurate.
Lets speak in real terms….not in conceptual frippery.
