    I’m not giving up seats I’ve had for nearly 30 years, I’d rather keep them in the family.

    I’m going to opt out of HCTS next year and won’t bother with CL packages or merchandise.

    Without coming across as a * here it is very easy to say you should give up a season book if you don't have one. I want the board gone as much as anyone else but there is a lot more worth in season books than money to people.

    I don't have a season ticket so I can't really tell anyone to give theirs up. I have however spent a * fortune on merch and tickets for home and away games and I'm not putting a single penny more in until this cartel are gone..

    I think and I'm not suggesting it's their responsibility but I think it's going to take one of the organised groups like the GB, Bhoys, supporters trust and the hundreds of supporters buses and clubs to start this movement.

    The problem is and as seen from some folk on here, they will not under any circumstances give up their ST, which for reasons I can understand too..

    Rock and a hard place

    Off of cliffs.....or jumping off of the stock exchange,,,,,, then upping the price of next season tickets.

    I am dismayed the way the team are playing,, the manager is in charge,, he is not doing a very good job at the moment.

    The team has to have 2 games that we cant be beaten ,, the team has to stick like glue for those games.

    Hart has to have glue stuck to his glovesss on both of those games.

    Ideally we go back to commanding games and Joe Hart doesnt need to get too much involved. I miss the games when we are 3-0 up at half time But yes it is now win at all costs.

    Although I would like to see the general performance of the team improving, I am agreeing with you that we simply must win the next 2 games. Even if we need to resort to boring the * out of people like 1990's George Graham Arsenal and start winning every game 1-0. We first and foremost need the points and must win.

    Are you not entertained?

    Really though, we need to resort to boring the * out of people?

    Well obviously I'd rather we were entertaining and not boring the * out of people. But thats not as important as picking up 3 points every game from now on regardless of how we play.

    I wonder if Juranovic and Giakoumakis had release clauses that the board thought were too low and that's one of the reasons McKay got the bullet.

    The transfer window where he was CEO was the best we've had in years.

    Correct me if I'm wrong but I think we got: Kyogo, GG, JJ, CCV, Starfelt and Jota.

    Fan engagement was class aswell as was his desire to reach out to similar sized clubs to learn how to modernise and get the best out of Celtic

    The fact he admitted to wanting to do that, reach out to learn how to modernise, tells you everything that we aren't a modern club.

    We are an insulated club ran by idiots.

    They've no desire to be modern and proactive. They are happy enough to let us be top dog and look the part in Scotland, but they've not a care about the wider world of football.

    Dom McKay was done dirty. Wonder if he's ever made comments since he left here.

    Even if they did there was hardly a queue of clubs waiting to take them was there? Plus both came in were good servants and we made a profit on them.

    Yeah all those mentioned plus Abada came in the one window but I see that as an anomaly as we had lost so many players from the season before and were basically on our knees because we waited so long on Howe to not come.

    I believe that window went so well despite the circumstances but luck had a lot to do with it. We were still woefully short going towards the end of the window with CCV, Jota and Giakoumakis landing in the last few days. It still left us without a real centre midfield to the point we bought 3 in January.

    That summer there was ripe for a window like Ange’s first window. We knew we had big money from two seasons of CL secured, Jota’s sale came through at the end of June so had boosted capital further, it was well known Starfelt wanted to go, Mooy was retiring, they had sorted out getting rid of Barkas and a few fringe players early on so there wasn’t a lot high earning deadwood.

    However, we proceeded to sign Holm, Tilio, Yang and Kwon so 4 prospect players unlikely to break straight in. Bought one player on the eve of the season starting who was likely meant for first team Nawrocki. Then done very little until near the end of the window, Lagerbielke came in as Starfelt went out, and Bernardo and Palma arrived. It was probably the most bizarre approach to a window and polar opposite than what was needed.

    Not renewing my season ticket but already have a few mates who want it from me. This will be same all over so regardless the * still get the money. I'll feel slightly better they are not stashing away the money I work hard to make.

    Woah, slow down there, Mr Hardball. :87:

    Won’t make the slightest bit difference in light of the fact that you’re handing them multiples of £600+ a year.
