Donate all your old Whisky bottles - The Chinks are paying absurd $ for them http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/wor...apore-whisky-on-sale-for-125000-a-bottle.html
Dermot Desmond hasn't been to a board meeting since the move to take Celtic to the Premier League fell through - he didn't even go to the AGM in October http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/footba...ans-blast-no-show-at-club-agm-86908-23489980/
Please just admit you failed, I have been at a 2 day funeral and couldn't be bothered Celts are cash rich and English football isn't.
We're no more cash strapped than the bottom 50% of Premier League clubs. Clubs such as Everton only spend what money they have coming in, which means not buying megastars from other clubs and living on your means - this leads to them being constant mid-table over achievers. The likes of Wigan have even been buying players from the SPL that Celtic could easily afford but didn't actually want, like Conor Salmon or James McArthur - which leads to them struggling. So obviously frugal clubs are less successful, because clubs like Portsmouth or even Stoke will spend more than they earn trying to fund the wages of better players (Stoke's parent company Bet365 took a £5m loss on the club last year). But to the point, we're not cash strapped - we spend what money we earn and have a secure if not very exciting future doing so.
That's Chelsea fans they tried to emulate But your right I would love to be playing in your league instead of SPL Can you tell me though...what league do you play in?
Excellent thinking, TC. Not to blow my own trumpet, but I believe that I was the last marquee signing that Celtic made. I'll pass your idea on to my old mate Neil, who I believe has a large collection of Jameson's bottles he could cash in.
True JH - You were indeed the last Marquee signining they made. Makes you wonder how they can have all this money yet still only be able to sign players that can't get into Championship teams.
It's a good league, seriously. It's competitive, there are no easy games, no foregone conclusions, and every season there are at least half a dozen teams who start out with serious aspirations to win it. Doesn't sound much like the SPL does it? Must feel awesome thrashing the likes of Dunfermline every week.
That's the trouble with Jock football - Its so **** you have to watch American Football and you start using quotes like "awesome"
Just reading about Millwall on wiki A tradition at The Den is the playing of the official club song[75] "Let 'em Come", by Roy Green, as Millwall and the opposing team walk on to the pitch. It was specifically written for the club and the lyrics represent old London culture, such as eating jellied eels[76] and having a glass of beer before going to the game. The song ends with all home fans standing, arms raised singing the last line, "Let 'em all... come down.... to The Den!" A television drama about a Millwall supporter and ex-docker, starring David Jason, featured a lyric from the song in its title, Come Rain Come Shine. The song was played on repeat at Wembley Stadium after Millwall gained promotion to the Championship in 2010.[77] The song "Shoeshine Boy" by the Mills Blue Rhythm Band was played as the entrance song prior to "Let 'em Come". According to a survey conducted by the Football Fans Census, Millwall were listed eighth out of a list of ninety-two Football League clubs with the most rivals, with West Ham United, Crystal Palace, Charlton Athletic and Gillingham considering them a major rival Based on all results during the club's 84 seasons in the Football League from 1920–21 to 2010–11, Millwall are ranked as the fortieth most successful club in English football.[140] The following table details the club's major achievements:[141] Competition Achievement Year Trivia Football League One Play-off winners 2010 First ever promotion via the play-offs in sixth attempt.[142] Football League One Play-off finalists 2009 FA Cup Finalists 2004 Qualified for the UEFA Cup.[49] Football League Second Division Champions 2001 Finished with 93 points, a club record.[143] Football League Trophy Finalists 1999 First official appearance at Wembley in a recognised competition.[3] Football League Second Division Champions 1988 Promoted to the top flight for the first time in the club's history.[32] Football League Group Cup Champions 1983 FA Youth Cup Champions 1979, 1991 Football League Division Three Promoted 1976 Automatically promoted after finishing third.[144] Football League Division Three Runners-up 1966, 1985 Unbeaten at home for the second successive season in 1965–66.[21] Football League Fourth Division Runners-up 1965 Finished one point behind the champions.[145] Football League Fourth Division Champions 1962 Football League War Cup Finalists 1945 South final runners-up.[146] Football League Third Division South Champions 1928, 1938 Western Football League Champions 1908, 1909 London League Champions 1904 Unbeaten with 11 wins and 1 draw.[147] Southern Football League Champions 1895, 1896 United League Champions 1897, 1899 East London Senior Cup Winners 1887, 1888, 1889 East London FA Cup Joint-winners 1886
