Michael Nicholson

And we could make 40 million just from Jota. Crazy good model.

 

Undoubtedly Mick deserves massive credit but how much is this change being pushed by Ange? Will this remain the norm going forward outwith Ange? I * hope so

 

We have brought in £35m in transfer fees since Ange took over(add ons not included or loan fees)

We have spent £45m.

We also have about 6 or 7 players at least who we could sell for £10m plus and that's the main thing for me.

 

Think we’re more of a net loss but even then it’s at most £10M which is still outstanding given the overhaul and the valued assets we now have.

From what we’ve seen I don’t think he worries about the margins for the transfers too much as the money in Europe will more than make up for it and then player sales down the road.

 

Can’t be at a loss mate not a chance. Mind we got money from ajer/Edouard/Christie as survival clauses from the deals that took them down south

 

if you do the addons it’s £44m mate and loan fees.

got £38m from Eddie, ajer and Christie alone. Add in £1m for jullien, £1m for bolingoli and £1.5m for bayo, loan fees plus sold shved and any loan fees received

we haven’t spent more than that not a chance

 

For me, this is part of what we need to be a little bit cautious with.

Is this the force of Ange, or is Nicholson fully in this mode as well?

Things under Rodgers first 12 months seemed good as well.

Time will tell, but for the early stages of his tenure, things look really * good right now.

Less ego *, more just get the job done. This club doesn't go anywhere if the squad on the pitch isn't capable of putting on a show, performances and getting results.

I’m just going by Transfermarkt which is missing a few a right enough, imagine we’d of spent a bit of money to pay off Rogic and Bittons last year of their contracts. Even then though being around the break even mark is sensational business.

 

They asked to have their contracts ripped up mate ange confirmed they came to us and asked to leave so imagine it was a mutual termination

 

Fair play to him. He has allowed the manager to build an utterly ridiculous squad.

Can’t wait to see what January has in store for us.

 

Hink oor Michael is a mad rebel. Maybe not a provo, he is a suit after all

I don’t think Lawwell would’ve have had that live Grace sesh on flag day

 

Delivering yet again for Ange..

 

Proving he's a Celtic supporter and not just a balancesheet man.

Yes, all of our transfer dealings have made financial sense but he's hardly focused on finances alone.

Need to start kicking on though. Start taking purchases up a level.

 

Wouldn't be completely shocked if our purchases start going up come Summer.

Get guaranteed CL football again, sell a few players (O'Riley, Giakoumakis, Juranovic will all be gone, and I think we'll lose one of Abada/Jota) and I genuinely could see us spending a fair amount of dosh.

Exciting times with ze specky one at our helm.

 

im reluctant to shower too much praise on board members for doing their jobs but here it is nicholson is doing his job well ,i have no doubt he has been helped massively by having a manager who knows what he is doing and his knowledge of cheaper markets. signing players from a position of strength or having replacement players in before one is sold is the right way to run a football club id guess its coming from ange but nicholson is backing him.what i like the most is you never hear a peep from him just gets on with it

 

It’s actually quite good news just having a CEO that quietly and effectively works away in the background. Nicolson has done VERY WELL so far.

 

He doesn't seem to have the ego Lawwell has at least for now

 

i think they have reviewed the set up that was under LAwwell, and created two roles out of Lawwell’s old role. Now CEO Nicolson and CFO Chris McKay. They are smart to leave the front man stuff to the popular manager/DoF.

 

That’s exactly what happened

 

Ange directly praising him for the Oh signing.. little does he know it's actually Lawwell behind the scenes.
