    That window was a joke.

    Needed right wingers the most. Bought 2 left wingers.
    Did not replace our main striker ( again )
    * Yang off at a disrespectful level

    But they made sure we sold players for 40 million. That went FAST

    No right winger and no strikers. Unreal work.

    Not a surprise that players are turning us down as well now. Any reputation we did have is now away.

    Just none of that window made sense.
    Gives me a headache just trying to think of the logic behind it.

    Can’t believe we let Kyogo go without replacing him so put the burden on our 2nd choice striker then sold him without replacing him :56:


    It’s * bonkers and actually hard to believe.

    Like others have side we needed a right winger and didn’t get 1, we’ve got two left wingers instead for around 10 million.

    Rodgers wanted a forward and we sold another and didn’t get the two he needed in.

    it’s not two steps backwards we are so far down the road it’s * embarrassing.

    Clowns the lot of them. When the results do go to * they will hand Rodgers out to dry.

    Then they will appoint a Celtic Man in Kennedy and it will get worse.

    Also you still have * clowns online defending the boards actions quoting playbook pish they have come out with before, like at least we are not in administration, or we have to watch our spending etc.

    Honestly it’s sickening, * gut wrenching.

    I wish it didn't make sense to me but it panned out pretty much exactly how I expected. With Rodgers going into his final year and not signing an extension he was never going to be backed to bring in players he wanted. If we had a proper DoF and succession plan that wouldn't matter, we'd bring in players that would fit the system, regardless of the manager. But we don't.

    We also were always going to gamble on getting CL football before trying to buy anyone decent, as that is just what we do when we have qualifiers, they set the budget based on us not qualifying and then increase it if we do.

    What I didn't anticipate was us not even getting a few decent/good loan deals on deadline day to tide us over for the season. It takes off the scale incompetence, negligence, or deliberate self sabotage to somehow do worse than my rock bottom expectations from them.

    Absolutely Deflated, have that feeling of defeat with Celtic right now. We can't forgot what this board has done. I'm sorry but Tisdale needs to go his transfer strategy was the biggest Flop in history of any club. Need to get these dinosaurs in our club out & modernise our club with a competent board who understands the modern game & market.
