    I've been calling for a financial boycott recently. All it needs is a push...

    Hope the board were watching the huns celebrating there...its gonna be 100 times worse if they win the league. George Square trashed Mk2.

    If they're happy with that, plus giving them £60m, then they're certainly doing their bit to help and can sleep easy.

    The sight of them winning the cup should make them angry with a promise to open the purse strings.

    Come February 1st, we'll know how they want to proceed as a club.

    What's more unacceptable from the board they are banning fan media from Celtic park who say anything wrong about them and just watched a fan giving them stick during the game getting removed by stewards that's not on that guy paid his money and is entitled to his opinion.
    Who do these * think they are the soviet committee where they don't allow free speech if you say anything wrong about them thats unacceptable from any football board .

    This will be the last of the automatic entry for a period?
    Handing them that windfall will sort them out for a good few years.
    Wipe out all their soft loan and debts, along with splashing 20m+ to spruce up their squad.

    It's madness we are sleep walking in to letting that happen.
    Our * inactivity to push the club forward is about to mean our only viable rival is about to get an adrenaline shot in the chest and blow us out the water.
    They do this once, they'll fuel themselves for the next season. Do it twice and suddenly they are title favourites again and we are in a fight every year.

    Imagine bragging about 70m in the bank, while knowing you're about to hand your rivals the same luxury and at that same time slowly wipe that balance out by having to cut accordingly.

    Mental logic from the board not to push forward.

    Trouble is the only way this mob will move is if performances continue to be bad and we stop winning things.

    * charlatans, the lot of them.

    Think they are untouchable and the happy clappers in our support have allowed them to get away with murder over the years.

    Look at the financial resources we have compared to the Huns yet they’ve outperformed us every year in Europe for the last 5/6 seasons.

    Domestic success has been great but we have been massive favourites for every trophy we have won in the last 12 years. They shouldn’t be measured on domestic success IMO.

    This board have no aspirations to make us better, only more profitable to appease the shareholders and protect their bonuses.

    The fella in the Main Stand at the weekend rightly had a go at them and was chucked out! That’s a very dangerous precedent to send. They ban fan podcasts for talking about them negatively too. Like I said, they think they are untouchable.

    It’s time for everyone else to stand up on Saturday and make themselves heard for the good of the football club. Let them know there is no hiding place.

    Lawwell needs to be first to go, he should never have been brought back. Lawwell Jnr to follow for 2 reasons - 1) to demonstrate jobs for the boys attitude is being ripped out the club and 2) because his recruitment in the summer was shocking. Banker, Allison etc need to go as well - just old Tory *.

    Genuinely need this to happen to show them but you'll have people that will go a long.

    We need a huge percentage of the stadium to be empty and protests outside the ground.

    I thoroughly enjoyed Ange's time here but it was just a blip of achievement in recruitment for the board. A complete fluke, too.

    This. No chance that happens again, we got so lucky with every signing turning out to be a good one.

    The common denominator is Lawwell. He is toxic. The Covid season and now this. Whilst there was calm in between when he wasn’t in a position of power. Then you have his son as head of recruitment. Jesus *. They are absolutely stinking the place out. Get the two of them chased and away to * along with Nicholson, who since Lawwell’s return seems to be taking a back seat. This jobs for the boys pish has to end. Lawwell is just too divisive a character.

    I don't think every signing being a success was a fluke. I think that was purely down to one man - Ange.

    I meant that it was a fluke that we hired him. No chance they knew what kind of man they had in Ange until he won the title.

    Keep thinking to myself where we could be the now without these * in charge. From 2012 onwards we could've made ourselves unstoppable. Nope, just as long as we're slightly better than the competition then thats fine apparently.

    What a * joke

    The worry for me is they have brought in a manager so far has got them winning and brought in a head of recruitment from psv edhovien so they might be getting things right off the pitch which could bring success on the pitch.
    Then you look at us everything turning to * on and off the park and having lawwell back as chairman and having his son as head of recruitment the nepotism at Celtic is * rife and needs to stop .
    We are all relaying on the transfer window in January but these * are so out of touch we will bring in two signings under £2 million and 2 loan signings.

    * joke mate mark lawwell must sit his office throwing darts at the map of Asia and decide who can we buy on the cheap .
    Big Ang was our recruitment when he was here and getting the players he knew in those areas .
    Now we have * novice and son of lawwell bringing in sub standard players who wouldn't get a game for Hibs never mind Celtic.

    before Mark Lawwell was appointed, we signed the following-
    Kyogo, Juranovic, O'Riley, Hatate, Maeda, Hart, Jota, CCV, Giakoumakis, Starfelt, Abada

    since his appointment everyone’s been a disaster

    They couldn't give a flying * about the huns winning the cup today. Their only concern is their annual bonus's and it always has been.

    This is why this nepotism must be stopped we should be bringing in the best available head of recruitment and not a * son of the chairman and giving him a job and going by the players that have been brought in he's a * disaster.
