    Id take just winning the SPL now and avoiding being humiliated in Europa.

    Anything better looks a stretch now.

    This is going to be a challenging season and the squads character will be put to the test. They will be caught in the cross fire.

    Now that fans can come to games, they won't be able to simply ignore everything, unlike that bizzarre season.

    Thats not reason. The reason is that these clubs sell their young players for millions to other Premier league clubs in dodgy deals. If one came here and had a good season in Europe they would look for £15m+.

    Remember when we turned our nose up at Adam Idah, 30 goals in 70 games gone from the squad.

    I think the bigger issue is the amount of goals gone from last season
    Idah 20
    Kuhn 21

    Not gonna lie, there are times over the years where I completely fall away from Celtic and football altogether. Happened in 2019 and I didn't get back into it until Ange's first season, and it was just a complete fluke of a YouTube video being suggested, some fan channel "who is Ange Postecoglou?" thing. Drew me in and before i knew it I was watching every game again... Up until some random international break earlier this year in the second half of last season. I just couldn't be * again. Haven't watched a single game of football since then. Been keeping half an eye on Celtic's transfer business and * what is happening.

    There is not a top flight club in relative terms in Europe who has had a worse window than us

    What a way to run a football club scurrying around to get last minute panic buys. * show and this is what we pay our season ticket for. Nicholson is the main man he's in charge and therefore should be sacked ASAP..

    I feel so * bad for Yang, Idah and Tillio on a personal level moving country is a massive decision they may have family living situations ect to sort and we have * them over big time on a personal level this seriously could land us in an employment tribunal

    Ita genuinely embarrassing. Feel for the players. Also completely trashes our reputation in the market if we are sending players to clubs to agree terms only to pull them back.

    I hate it when players force a teansfer but in this instance I would have no issue with it.

    ...not sure we would notice if Idah downed tools to be fair...

    Heads need to roll regardless of who we end up signing tonight. The club is dysfunctional. We're a laughing stock in the transfer market.

    Considering a just seen a stat of the idah and Yang transfers go through along with other fees received adding in the sell ons we have made exactly what champions league qualification would have got us

    Lack of ambition

    This is bad as it gets..

    Cash rich
    Laughed out by clubs for penny pinching
    Guys walking about with passports we end up swerving
    Dilly dally
    Sit til last day and miss out on our main striker
    Leave our players sitting about after completing medicals and their deals fall through
    Players rejecting us all over the gaff

    It's incredible, you'd think we were broke. We're a laughing stock..

    Our tax bill to HMRC will be higher than what we have spent on transfers this window
