    a world class club!

    only difference is finance,man u barca etc blow us away cos of television rights and other sponsorships,and also we are in a dead end league where th set up needs to be changed asap.

    i said world class because we have just as good foundation throughout our exsistance with the name,and the fans being interegiul part of this .the same as these team.

    celtic a world class club?

    your * right we are and dont forget that,

    Take the sky sports revenue away from the premiership and most of their clubs would be in administration. Then you would see how big their clubs really are .

    We are a massive club with no money. We are in one of the worst leagues but have a massive fanbase and worldwide appeal but we'll always struggle as the EPL, La Liga and Serie A are all well richer and the smaller clubs in they leagues have more money. We cannot compete with the teams from the big leagues.

    fanbase is world class

    celtic are bigger than man utd id say we are up there with the milans, real madrids, liverpools, only thing is they have plenty of money generated from league sponsorships etc and we don't give us the same money as them and celtic would be a dominating force i have no doubt about it the fan base we have is one of the biggest in the world.

    I see where you are coming from but the fact we have no money means we aren't a big club. We were a big club when money didn't matter, but modern football is money driven. If for instance, Celtic, Fulham, Everton and Valencia went in for a player, do you honestly think we would win that race? I don't.

    Roy Keane turned down Juventus, Real Madrid and just about every other club in Europe to join Celtic. Which is a fact.

    How big a club is isn't dependant on who would sign for you anyway.
