Sell fans a ticket, you owe them a game of football. Whether the standard or result it good or bad, it’s a relatively easy commitment to keep. That’s what fans get in return for spending money on a ticket.
Sell people shares, you owe them a share certificate. That’s what shareholders get in return for coughing up for shares.
Borrow money from fans and you owe them much more than a game of football or a share certificate. In many instances that money will have come from people who had to forgo things to provide you with the loan. You owe them a duty of care that their loan will be repaid, or converted with their agreement.
It beggars belief that an unsecured loan has been offered to Rangers International by fans group, Rangers First. If, as claimed, the obligations to Sports Direct have been met, the club will have both the ability and the incentive to pass the securities previously held by Sports Direct to the fans group. The club’s IP, training ground and ancillary assets should now be unencumbered, who better to have security over these critical parts of the club than a fans group?
Unless, of course, the obligations to Sports Direct have not been met. Or someone else has their eye on the assets.
The claim that Dave King would match Rangers First’s loan took me by surprise. This was counter to everything I knew and expected of him. His swift denial was more consistent with expectations.
There is an axiom in football: Any club who has enriched a PR individual to the tune of £500k in the last year is making a serious attempt to divert it’s fans attention. Celtic’s PR machine deals with the efficient communication of football information and financial reports. Nothing whatsoever is spend attempting to lead the news agenda. This often leaves us on the receiving end of that agenda, but we have nothing to hide. Which is the way it should be.
Few sights in business or football can be more alarming than when purportedly wealthy people borrow money from poorer people. The warning signs are writ as tall as the Ibrox stands. This time there is no hidden Ticketus deal people can claim they didn’t know about.

Yeah hopefully Pablo is at David Bowie´s reception.
His favourite Bowie Song although not a Bowie composition
Love me, love me, love me, say you do
Let me fly away with you
For my love is like the wind, and wild is the wind
Wild is the wind
Give me more than one caress, satisfy this hungriness
Let the wind blow through your heart
For wild is the wind, wild is the wind
[CHORUS]
You touch me,
I hear the sound of mandolins
You kiss me
With your kiss my life begins
You’re spring to me, all things to me
Don’t you know, you’re life itself!
Like the leaf clings to the tree,
Oh, my darling, cling to me
For we’re like creatures of the wind, and wild is the wind
Wild is the wind
[CHORUS]
Like the leaf clings to the tree,
Oh, my darling, cling to me
For we’re like creatures in the wind, and wild is the wind
Wild is the wind
Hail HAil
DD – saw you had a good time in company mate, and that’s great. But I’m seeing more beligerent behaviour from groups of fans than ever before. Confrontational, threatening and abusive – seing it more often, and hearing about it more from others too (e.g. the two examples from fans who were in Turkey).
Our support’s reputation has been taking a tanking over the past few years – not all of it is made up.
Glad you had a great day, though, and delighted we won – HH
BGFC
Hero RIP
Yeez have been told, told, and, repeatedly told that….Celtic will, ‘never’ be Celtic whilst the current swivel-eyed-kowtowing-back-seat-occupants who run the club today…easily…relieve all of you of yer money…put yeez back out side…lock the doors on you….then, look the other way when the big-bad-evil-ugly-mibbery-assisted-rioting-hun-orcs come back and resume their old ways….no Celtic there to tackle the corner of the underdog community. That is, no Celtic who will be driven by a boardroom full of rebellious Celtic supporters who won’t bend over for the hun establishment. It’s over!
The huns have won!
4 years away to avoid paying £140 million back – result!
The very nature of their return, dripping in a theme of – Get It Right Up Ye Timmy! – result!
The sickening effect that this will have on the bemused, confused, sickened Celtic supporters will, empty Celtic Park in disgust. – result!
The if only effect….on the Celtic support.
If only we had stood up to the board / PL when they announced that, all aspects of the club were to be subject to downsizing….all aspects except…Executive bonuses and, fan admission prices(Although this was done later as, more empty seats appeared and yet, PL dressed the discount up as a loyalty bonus to fans ?)…If ye were taken-in by that spin….well…
If only we had waited until the ‘job’ on Rangers FC was seen through to the bitter end before hunnishly gluttoning on – Jelly & ice cream.
If only we had been more vociferous in our protests to the, look the other way Celtic hierarchy when they were, ‘surprised’ by LNS’s whitewashing all the hun cheating.
If only we had called out the Celtic hierarchy for their meek acceptance of ‘equal’ punishment for the shame-game were, Celtic had 3 players booked.
If only we had backed Neil Lennon by, walking out the door with him coz of, continual downsizing the product on the pitch…if, we’d put the tools away when our ex-manager flagged up the alarm sign of, where Celtic were going under the hierarchy’s directive.
If only there was a Jungle….the board woudn’t have fluked wi yeez!
Rebels replaced by snobs.
Jungle replaced by 200 magnificent wee bhoys & ghirls.
Rangers FC didny die….Celtic hierarchy, looked the other way as the died(LOL) huns sneaked in the back door.
When Turbull Hutton died…so did the war against Rangers and their cheating establishment.
Only a Celtic board full of rebellious Celtic supporters can save all of this.
You have one last chance….Season Book renewal time.
I’ve been telling yeez almost on a daily basis since all of this carry-on started…4 / 5 years ago….only Celtic can put ‘them’ away.
As it stands just now….the vengeful-resurgent-mibbery-assisted-evil-rioting-huns will be back to resume their normal service next season…..it’ll take, 1?….maybe 2? years of this and….Celtic FC will die.
Wonder how good all yer jelly & ice cream will taste then ?
RIP Ziggy, true legend.
So Bowie arrives at the table seating Marley, entwistle, moon, Hendrix, Lennon and Harrison, wit a session that’s gonna be, and I don’t mean the music.
“Waghorn and Mackay …the wing wizards”……hahahahahahaha

Answer? As soon as the political mob got in joined by the student brigade, and Ultra’s , and the Celtic this, and the Celtic that, it was game , in all probability none of these groups where to blame, but they are attracting hangers on we don’t need, time they started policing they’r own outfits, you’s started it, you’s control it, but,! It probably wouldent suit your agenda right?

Yesterday was a joke, standing on the perimeter wall with a huge banner hiding the ones setting off the pyros , they knew what they were doing, it was pre-orchestrated, you know the big guy from the brazen I posted about , he confronted them and got treated like a leper the entire game, this is going to come to blows that guarateed
I have to agree with THE CLUMPANY on the pyro situation.
It’s damaging to the club and to the reputation of our fans. A reputation which goes back to Day One of our existence.
Additionally,they are illegal at football matches.
Like it or lump it,dump it. It’s not amusing anymore.

This text thingymibob is murder,
That should read ” that’s guaranteed”
Farewell Genius R.I.P.
As a very good Tim friend of mine posted on Facebook …….
That caption says, What’s on your mind. How long must the celtic family have to endure the antics, embarrassment and unacceptable behaviour that happened today at the Match . You do not represent the Celtic support, you drag us down to a level of an Orc culture. Anyone. Who condones this is not worthy of this inclusive family.
If the football authorities are so concerned about pyrotechnic devices in grounds why do they have huge displays at cup finals and league title celebrations?
Ffs Ernie , listen to yourself, the pyros at cup finals are health and safety organised not some feckin cretin holding up a squib, are you saying your ok with them doing this?
The Celtic Family ?
That’s oot the same book that the old board used to brainwash, George Delaney….wi stuff like – “We have the best fans in the world at Celtic Park.”
Does that include them that, Livingstone and, Bankier called racists ?
What a pile of p#sh!
And to add,
It’s , us, the support that has the problem, they are setting these flares off in the vicinity of kids and people with disabilities, not that they give a feck
Anyway…..as the one and only King Kojo would have said…
….”If Commons dizny score…whit diz he dae ?”

Nasty
As I posted, the ones who started These break away groups need to get they’r houses in order, I predicted it years ago that this was trouble, organised and orchestrated by people with agendas, using Celtic as a rung in they’r ladder to success, storm trooper methods are in use here, and it needs to be nipped in the bud, and sooner rather than later, the SMSM hate the great name our away fans have, and will not hesitate to put the boot in (even if they have to make it up) all they are doing is what the Huns, SPFL, SFA SFL, and the SMSM want them to do, tarnish our good name, and laugh at us, we rip into the Huns all week in our social media, and these clowns do this? Get them out.
King Kojo didny need tae ask twice…
“The roakits an’ bangers in the stauns ur a wee sneak preview o’ wit it wud be like if they rebilious millenials wur gie’n the keys tae the boredroom an’ alout……………. tae dae wit they liked…..”
Which of-course is why the daily sneaky sleekit is such an eloquent advocate of fan-ciful…………..rebelution.

Is it perhaps because there’s a massive difference between pyrotechnics set off by professionals at safe distances from punters and those set off by wee dicks (excuse my language).
