surprised they wont spend at least 15 million of that to improve the team or is it the fact they are scared of the finacial fair play rules that we might get banned for spending as everyone else is skint in the league.

 

That's Lennon's fault no one else's.

Lennon should never have been near the job after seeing through last season , he's a disaster waiting to happen....we're * with him and Kennedy in charge.

 

Nothing to do with FFP and every one else!

Bankier said at the AGM when questioned about the £30m sitting in bank “it is in the bank and will be staying there it will be used for infrastructure and not spent on the team”

 

ok so for hotel then.

 

Aye or for a rainy day!

Hotel should be built on credit imo but hey ho!

 

Has he gone yet??

 

As long as he is still at the club we will not make the groups stages of the Champions League again

 

Yes that Boli. Lennon obviously felt he was worth a shot since we have no other LB in the squad. He left him out of our biggest game of the season and played McGregor in defence. Who sanctioned the Sinclair deal? Lennon barely played him from January nor since. So who sanctioned it? And yes we have a biscuit tin mentality. Risk averse. We are stuck in a vicious cycle. We are afraid to spend money incase we don't qualify for the Champions league and we don't qualify for the champions league because we don't spend money. People are still disrespecting Cluj by the way. A hard working streetwise team. Yeah we should have won- yes we should have shut up shop especially after 3-2 but we didn't and paid the price. That is on Lennon. But this is a systemic problem. Rodgers faced the same issues and it eventually caught up with him too. Not even making the play off round two years in a row is unacceptable for us. We have regressed badly in two years. Big games now against AIK. Make our break for our season. I like the Europa league.

 

I couldn't give two * about the Euro league, it will make our chances of making it 9 even less than it is now.

 

Does anyone know what our average success rate is when spending, like for every £10m we've spent how many Scepovic's and Derks to Virgils and Victors? Just wondering what the board are thinking.

 

Would kickstarting a petition to force Lawwell and Desmond out of the club work?

 

No why would they leave a cash cow ?????

 

We really are an * outfit. Over the last few seasons there have been some major embarrassments. How can we be expected to keep throwing hard earned money at a club who:

1. Offer our manager the job on a permanent basis in the showers after a game
2. Spend all summer haggling with hibs over John mcginn for a measly sum and watch his value sky rocket only a year later
3. Have recruitment documents leaked showing who we are trying to sign
4. Sign £10m worth of defenders and leave them on a bench yet play our best midfielder and smallest player at left back
5. Sell our top striker a few hours before the transfer window shuts
6. Sign Boli Bolingoli as a replacement for one of the best left backs scotland has ever produced
7. Gamble with our champions league participation by refusing to replace lost talent

The list could go on and on.

Based on last night, I think we are in for a long, hard season.

 

Yeah but but but 8 in a row, treble treble..

Wouldn’t surprise me in the slightest if Lawwell is buying the players

 

He does buy them- it's his job. The issue is that he's not looking for input from the manager. We have a CEO that's sabotaging managers.

 

I've always wondered who 'identifies' transfer targets.

I remember way back when Dedryck Boyata was linked with us back in 2013 when NL was in charge, he was then signed a year or so later by RD.

The club signed Maryan Shved when BR didn't want another winger, and he even said this in one of his press conferences, saying we have a million wingers.

It just seems to me that we are linked with a player when a manager is in place, even after the current manager leaves, we then get the same player(s) we are linked with. We are becoming a puppet club.

Dodgy Pete.

 

How many lives does this * get

 

There is big Pete gave the nod to the Celtic Twitter team to get those Europa league notifications out absolute Laughable! He’s better aff Stating bluntly “Geez yer money priks”.

 

Petitions...starting to sound like fukin Huns.

The only way to force change is empty seats and not buying season tickets.
