If you could be Desmond???

Everyone else can overrule him, he has 42% not 50% + 1 share. If other people invested more in the share issues his stake would come down but they are not

 

It is complete fantasy to believe other people would overule him. He may not have voting control, but he controls the purse strings. As regards me investing my money, grab a hold of this.
My son will drive me to Milton Keynes on Friday night, I will catch a coach at midnight to take me to Glasgow arrivinf about 7am. I will grab a bite to eat, go down the Gallowgate, the Barras market etc and then head for Celtic Park, where I will visit the Celtic shop and buy two new strips, some videos, Celtic view and then take up my place in my newly acquired season seat. I will even eat a pie at half time. I'll pop back to the Brazen Head and meet other real Celtic fans, listen to CATB and head for Buchanan Bus Station to catch the 22.30 coach back home arriving at 6.30 on Sunday.
I also bought two small amounts of shares at the latest rights issue.
As a proportion of income and assets I guess its a grat deal more than Desmonds share.
If you think thats shitstirring, then you are deluded, what by the way do you contribute to Celtic apart from your know all attitude on a message board

 

Similar to you except i dont have a season book, i go through my Celtic Supporters Club for a ticket to matches. I cant get over to Glasgow regulary. I wish I could.

The fact is DD has invest more money that anyone in the history of the club, this club would have sinked without his input. He's investing out of his choice, not because he has to. If we had more people that would invest what he invests, we would be up there in the top 8 of europe.

I give my opinion based on what I've read, if I dont understand something, I read up on it.

 

Fair enough Dempsey, you're entitled to your opinion but the gist of this thread is WHAT WOULD YOU DO IF YOU COULD BE DESMOND??
I think you and the other DD defenders would count your billions and throw spare change at the club the same as DD but I feel we're really unlucky that we're the only billionaire related club who's sugar daddy gives us next to f@ck all.
Like I said, if I had a billion, we'd have half the world cup winning team in our ranks,
and the other half would be Brazil.

 

I know the thread has gotten side tracked but you keeping missing the point and I'm sick of trying to explain it.

 

I dont disagree that it is a collective duty being neglected by the suits in charge Dempsey.....But if Dermot's ties are 'emotional ones' as i have seen stated, then surely he must be the one to lead the rest by example as the major share-holder and self proclaimed fan of the club? Wanmadtim

 

He cannot lead by example. If he puts any more money into the club then he has to offer to take it over.... and I don't think anyone wants that. So until somebody else buys shares to dilute his standing, he can't do any more.

 

He doesn't need to put money in per se....He just has to use his considerable influence on the board to 'persuade' them to re-route funds already there to enable the manager not to embarrass himself or the club in any future transfer negotiations. Wanmadtim

 

don`t be kidded any money * desmond has put in you can be assured he will get it back one way or another. in my eyes he`s not a celtic fan . the only time you ever see him he`s playing golf or hanging out of rod stewart and billy connellys * and buy the way they dont even pay for there season books.............

 

and the poor dears have heating installed in their seats.

 

How else are they supposed to keep their heads warm? Wanmadtim

 

Somebody is jealous of the rich geezers...

 

4 pages and i am still laughing. Great Craic bhoys!
If i were DD i would send half my money to the Third World, but 4 Thai Brides, give wee GS £20million and replace all the housing around Celtic Park! (What an eyesore!)

 

No, just an observation mate . Wanmadtim

 

Derryduck i'm enjoying the craic myself in this thread so i hope you don't take this the wrong way..... Is it no time you changed your sig? Your DerryDuck and your sig Highlights the fact..... You are now 'ENTERING' Free Derry.......It could draw the wrong conclusions....If ye get ma drift! (lol) Wanmadtim

 

im not expecting players such as henry, shevchenko and ronaldinho etc to come to celtic but player like hesseling we should be able to say to psv (or whoever we are dealing with) to name their price
