Investment

Are our kits going to be designed by GAP next year. I don't care what this guy owns..if this is true and he wants to invest money into the club then more power to him.

 

Who is the name you heard??

 

I dont know if he means John Fisher or Eddie Jordan or if hes just * with all of us

Edit: After reading each of the names mentioned Wiki page I really hope it's Denis O'Brien, the man helped pay for Trappatoni's wages and is worth an estimated 2.2 billion dollars, obviously a football fan and proud of being Irish...now he's just chilling in Malta cuz he doesnt have to pay taxes. So get him and Desmond to put there money together and actually put it to good use and the sky is the limit.

 

Mate, the club advertise themselves for investment 24/7

Call it begging or good business, falls under the same umbrella, and we are a club in shear desperation for an injection into the club.

 

Another thing, I would be skeptical of any of these rumours.

Why would anyone want to invest in Celtic, Rangers or any other Scottish club.... ???

To invest, you would be looking to gain profitable financial returns through interest. this cant be done in Scottish football. The guys fore mentioned, are businessmen, successful businessmen, I dont see why they would be looking to invest in Celtic. Does Desmond heavily invest year in year at Celtic, billionaire or not.... ??? the answer is no!

Is Eddie Jordan not involved in QPR....!?!?!

 

I'll invest £10 get lickinggggggg lol ko mate.

We do need investment DD will never put a good amount of cash into Celtic he should sell his shares if this being the case and let someone who will invest and be proactive into the club.

 

i know we fork out for books,merchandise etc ,but if the fans donated a tenner to go towards new signings then that would generate a few quid cant suffer watching the blue noses winning every year

 

You must be joking mate.....!!!

I think we donate enough don't you bro?

 

yes we need to get the new manager in as soon as the seasons finished to prepare for the qualifiers

 

BBC SPORT | Football | My Club | Celtic | GAP man buys share in Celtic plc

John J Fisher, the son of GAP Clothing founder Donald George Fisher has purchased a 3.24% share in Celtic.

That was 3 years ago though. As we are a PLC, a public limited company, any fresh investment would have been reported in the media

 

I heard John Fisher the guy who owns gap and also owns an airline company aswell if this is true then its good news all round i would say this possibly would mean we would have more funding in the summer for players. I hope Lennon gets the job a she team are now winning.

 

If you dont post something to back up what you are rambling on about then I'm going to lock this thread

 

Thtas fine you will see when it actually comes out mate.

think we do need some investment though to get us out of this hole
Celtic suffer from lack of investment - Telegraph

 

Im not so sure. Of course i would love for some billionaire to come and give us a huge investment, but the reality of it is kind of limited.. I know theres not too much money to be won in the SPL, and the domestic cups, so if he wants a return on any investment, then he would be looking at serious competition in Europe, as well as winning everything in scotland!

The thought of it is very interesting and exciting, but unlikely. However, il definatly accept it if it comes along!

About everyone donating a tenner for a transfer kitty.. well, if you get 60k ( CP Capacity ), then for talks sake add another 60k on top of that, thats 120k. So if everyone chips in a tenner, that would be £1.2M to spend... And as if we dont already pay enough for merch, we have a Celtic shop located all round scotland ( not sure about England ), so Celtic must be making mega bucks as a buisness!

 

someone could be daft enough to invest...they got it at man city.and theres no chance there making there money back.

 

Ones in the EPL, the others in the SPL mate

Again, a world of difference.

 

Te papers would know first about it , never mind anyone else

 

Dosnt really matter what country or league it is you aint going to make your money back by spending the amount of cash Man City do

 

Billionaires willing to invest that amount of money in a team they have no real emotional attachment are only doing so as it is fashionable right now. Why, then, would someone plump for an SPL team when they could buy an EPL team? To be honest i would rather continue the prudent spending than have some billionaire fling money at us and rip the soul out of our traditions e.g Glazers at Man Utd
