    Tit ... <laugh>

    We just spent more on our new training facility than Celtic's transfer budget for the next 10 years ...

    We are competing for a CL spot in the most competitive league in the world for the second season running, having won the title in 2015/16 ... avoiding relegation is now for other clubs, our fans expect much more.

    The economic reality is that we could buy any of Celtic's best players ... in contrast Celtic would need to look to our academy lads to afford any of ours ... just as Rangers did with Calvin Bassey... good prospect by the way, but was well down our pecking order in terms of breaking into the first team squad.

    Nowt personal ... but them's the facts.<cheers>

    Yet you have one National trophy and zero European trophies in the cabinet.

    This is true ... but then again we do have much more than one team to beat each season.

    Can't knock the European trophies won, but both Glasgow clubs are lagging behind Nottingham Forest on that front .. both in the number and relevance to the modern game ... and Forest are currently mid-table in the English Championship... Indeed Fulham have been in a European final more recently than either Celtic or Rangers ... and they'll be playing Forest next season.<laugh>

    No need for abuse if you're only delivering facts, so on that note, this is how you deliver facts:

    Failing to reach the CL will bring no pressure on Leicester.

    Spending multi millions on failed ****e players will bring no pressure on Leicester.

    Failing to win a single trophy will bring no pressure on Leicester.

    Spending 100 million for EPL mediocrity and still being employed is a lot of breathing space for a manager.

    Big jobs don't get that kind of room.

    Fact.

    Go well.

    Nice facts.

    All the best in attracting a top manager btw ... and keeping him if a job with better prospects comes up <whistle>

    Mindy and Fosse are two of the same. These paragraphs could go on for a long time, yet.

    I really hope it is a pop because if it isn't then I may have to rethink about liking Mindy. Anyway, for the time being...


    I like Mindy.
