    A. You added that quote in after.

    B. Not even close to what I said.

    This country is now out of recession but you think for some strange reason that this is the main reason for the drop in attendances.

    As for the CL excuse, you still haven't told us what the price difference is.

    Come on now, time to be a man once again and admit that Rangers absence from the SPL is the main reason

    That's not what you said, you said it was the only reason and therefore by inference you have said "the recession was not a factor". I have already shown evidence that the recession is a factor, now you show me the evidence that it's all down to Rangers' absence from the SPL, but you will not simply because you cannot.

    I'm not going to allow you to change the subject what you said is clear as crystal and now you are being hung out to dry - as usual. <ok>

    I don't care what you or Lawell say on the matter. You or no-one else will change my mind so why bother?

    By using the words "simply put", surely that could mean "the main reason"? As in, he didn't want to go into any other contributing factors, so just stating the reason that carried the lion's share?

    Did he give any other reasons? Any at all?

    No, I thought not.

    He's trying to backtrack is all.

    No, he didn't that is what I mean, he was putting it simply, i.e. stating the main reason crowds have fallen.

    He never said it was the main reason, he never gave any other reasons.

    Simply put means - In truth.

    And where did I say it was the only reason?

    But for the sake of, lets smash your theory into pieces.

    - The UK is now out of recession. People have now more money to spend than 1,2 or even 3 years ago.

    - Celtic have played European football for the past 2/3 seasons. So during the worst economic climate the fans were still buying European and domestic tickets. This is where you can help out Dev and tell me the price difference between Europa & CL tickets.

    But na it's just a coincidence that as soon as Savco's biggest rivals are kicked out of the SPL that attendances drop. The team that gave Savco their highest domestic attendances for the past few decades.

    I think his own silence speaks volumes about exactly what he said.
