    I argued Celtic were still spending money.

    Surely your constant referral to "Eighty MiLlIoN £ rUnNiNg CoStS" supports this.

    You can't be that dumb.

    I've supported Celtic since the Kellys and the Whites days and those guys were squeaky clean compared to this cancerous collection of cowards we call a "board". In all that time I've gone through some tremendous highs and some fairly awful lows watching the team I love, but now? I just feel scunnered and I've never felt like that before towards my team so, to the board - thanks for that


    Wow!

    The Kelly's and the Whites were squeaky clean compared to the current board!

    They really have a big massive bout of selective amnesia at what went on at their club during the era of Kelly and White and McGinn. There hasn't been a football boardroom as bad as that lot in the history of football .

    Not unless Pol Pot was on the board of Phnom Phen Wanderers.

    Even this season.

    Celtic spend 25 mill on bringing players in.

    Recouped 20 mill in transfer window last minute business.

    The Compliant MSM bum up Angeball and the happy clappers lap it all up. Is Starfault an upgrade on Ajer? Is McCarthy an upgrade on Brown? Is Abeda an upgrade on Christie?

    7 games in and 6 points behind a Rangers team that has barely got out of 1st gear.

    Domestically things were fine.

    Celtic followed the same pattern as they did for about 15years. Rodgers being a blip like the Keane signings.

    We used our extensive scouting network and uncovered a few diamonds that heaped success. We are still using it but not finding as many diamonds.

    We've dominated for 20 years by taking few risks and that's unlikely to change with the board we have before the appearance of Rang3rs.

    Was Ajer an upgrade when he was loaned out to Killie?

    Christie when loaned out to Aberdeen?

    Mccarthy is the token irish buy.

    We mostly buy potential, you should know this by now.

    Domestically things were fine!

    And there in lies the problem!

    You're business model is the exact same as Rangers. It is largely dependent on European money. Not qualifying for the CL through your boards refusal to invest in players before qualification was got was always going to come back and bite you on the arse. As I said Russian roulette!

    You shot yourselves in the head over and over again but Domestically it was fine because you had no competition.

    Happy days!

    No you used to mainly buy potential. Now you spend 5 million on dross like Ajeti and the Greek statue.

    We know this. We have always known this. We complained about this since at least the Steven Fletcher debacle.

    When did you realise it and think you had a scoop?
