    That’s not legal and couldn’t think who would deserve a hypothetical cut based on last years performances

    Gordon & Sinclair for a start. Compper if you can include lack of performance

    It's a fair point to be honest. But still, sviatchenko, Armstrong and Roberts are all off the payroll. I'd imagine neither of them were low end earners in comparison to the rest of the squad.

    Fed up now Peter Liewell they always say they will support the manager, which you can tell from Brendan this isn’t happening.
    We are in a position of strength and should be building on this.

    Just can't get enough
    We have always bought late we do our research have a valuation and wage structure of said player we also live withing our means, I don't know were this * about lawell has come from, we broke our transfare record this year, broke our wage bracket for the past 2, laid 2m pitch have got the walk way investing in our future and we miss out on mcginn and now lawell is to blame he's a money grabber with no ambition, common to *, I'm old enough to remember the kellys, coming 3rd/4th in the league * team and mayhem behind the scenes, and for me lawell has and is doing a great job since day one till today,

    Walkways, Hotels, Light systems and pitches are all great but investing in them shouldn't be to the detriment of the playing squad.

    While we've broken our transfer record this summer, our net spend is still only £1 million (surplus of £6.5 million if you include our sell-on fee for Van Dijk)

    Bringing up the Whites and Kellys serves no purpose in this debate. No rational supporter is asking for £10 million signings in every position that would lead us to financial ruin; we're simply asking for modest investment in key areas of the team that our Double-Treble winning manager sees as necessary to ensure we don't regress. It's not unreasonable and it's well within our capabilities.

    I know Sinclair was poor compared to season previous but he did still finish topscorer.

    Gordon conceded least goals in the league

    I don’t think it’s legal to reduce someone’s pay whos on the sick either but you’d make a great CEO with that attitude m8 :57:

    Thanks for the legal advice but I wasn't thinking of applying for a CEO job. I prefer to make lighthearted comments on forums than go around with a stick up my * hobnobing with fellow tories

    Lawwell is a spineless * who sat on his hands and did nothing about RES12 and the corrupt SFA.

    If Brendan resigns then lawwell should go and take some of your tory board members with you.

    This is how it feels to be Celtic , Penny Pinchers again as you know.
    Peter Lawwell * up 10 in a row , 10 in a row.

    This could happen and the Celtic support would never forgive the board for * up 10 in a row.

    He has arguably got the easiest job in Scottish football.
    We have the best stadium, merchandise, training facilities, team and Fans.
    Why * about over 2/3 decent signings in the right areas? I would understand if we had been spending over the last few seasons but we haven’t.
    We are giving they * hope and we should be light years from that.

    He's done a lot of good things for the club, no doubt we're in a very good place as a club/ business. However I will never forgive Lawell for not getting Fletcher in that January. We couldn't buy a goal with the strikers we had and it cost us the league. Fletcher might not have made a difference but it was a glaring problem at the time that Lawell failed to act on. As long as he is here he will always put the business first before what's on the park, needs to learn to compromise .

    He’s done great but right now deserves criticism.

    If we theoretically lose the league he’s need to walk due to the revenue which has gone elsewhere but the team

    A quick review of what’s gone on here...

    A fortnight ago we were all happy campers. Broke our transfer record in the window and extended Tam Rogic’s contract.

    All is peachy - bring on the Huns - we’re going to walk the league - easy!

    Yet here we are! A decent AEK Athens team snatched a goal against the run of play and drew the match. We missed out on McGinn (let that sink in... Niall * McGinn - none of wanted the *!). And yesterday we got beat in a close encounter at Tyncastle by a Hearts team who were right up for it.

    And it’s the * apocalypse. Apparently!

    Wise the * up ya bunch of greetin’ faced weans and stop bringing me down with your whining PISH!

    The response here is incredible. Like something from a Monty Python parody sketch! Peter Lawell? Burn him - he’s a witch!

    Just get tae * ya prawn munching roasters!
