Abysmal transfer market cost us. Do the board no longer trust the manager? He has had long enough to fix the defence and has failed miserably. Ok he didn't sign them all but he must have identified this as a weakness yet we are worse now than when he came in. Jozo and Boyata are total bombscares, Hendry sorry he will never be good enough, Ajer is a midfielder but might come good, Comper less said the better. Folk will say it costs millions to get good defenders, wonder what AEK paid for their CB's? Serious questions need to be asked.

We'll go out and spend now . shut the gate once the horse has bolted disgrace.

looks like PL was waiting to see if we qualified before they spend money unbelievable how we get ourselves in this state.

We, and by that I mean Lawell has just kissed £60m goodbye. Well done mate. If anybody is to leave Celtic it should be him. Defensive balls ups yet a feckin gain. No excuses, any CEO who just cost their company £60m would have their arse handed to them.

A shambles and goodbye to the quality we needed. Cheapskate rubbishebags.

We spent 9m on Edouard. Gave a five year (no doubt hugely expensive) contract to a bang average player that can't last more than 60 mins. Whilst we may have a bit of cash in the bank, the club must run to a budget, or you know what can happen. Brendan has had 5 (5) transfer windows to sort the defensive frailties out, and we keep signing midfielders. At the Athens home game, I sat behind the goal we were attacking for the second half, and it was like watching a really poor Arsenal. 90% of the ball, no idea in the final third. No change of strategy when they went to 10 men, and didn't really look like scoring, or, more importantly changing the game plan. Hearts game at the weekend was the same. We all know exactly what was coming, and no reaction whatsoever. Whilst I'm sure we have cash there, we CANNOT say the board are to blame. Too many piss poor signings, and not much changed, certainly European wise in the last 2 years. Maybe we have just found out level.
Oh and stop blaming Henry- at least he is working for his wage unlike some sitting on their arse in Glasgow. Treble treble would be lovely- feels like our level though, certainly under the current regime.

for the last god knows how long it’s been obvious that we need a keeper, a right back and a right good centre half. That’s just to attempt to sort the defence. We also need a number 10 that turns up more than half a dozen times a season when it suits &a genuine quality wife player. Oh and a scouting department that actually has a fecking clue what they’re doing. Or is it the board or the manager?

Neilbhoy wow, can't blame the board? hahah don't make us laugh.

yer comment about "you know what can happen" in regards to us spending?

What will happen? we won't go into administration by spending money we have.

5-10mil for a couple of defenders. we have 30 in the bank.

qualify for the CL and earn 40mil. you do the maths. We have lost £30 in order to save £10mil.

any business on the planet would sack their CEO for that level of loss.

Viking Tim, right now I would takes quality “wife “ player. Would do better than some of the mince on the park.

10m for a couple of defenders? Another 50k a week in wages, and for what? Wouldn't guarantee we qualify, and I'm curious, which defenders are they? Look at the wage bill for the last couple of years- there is spend, and there is investment- every club has a ceiling though, and if you can't guarantee the 30/ 40m from champs league then you are spending for nothing. I'm not saying the board are blameless, but there has been investment- not in the right areas of the pitch. Was pretty clear from the last few performances.

Telsa it £40m to qualify for the group

It’s, even on last years TV money of £13.5m

Tickets alone for three home games. £11m

It’s nearer £65m

If we had strengthened then any win £2.7m

We shat it to go an extra £750k for McGinn.

A possible £70m with just one win down the plug hole. . One feckin win. All gone because the board may have members, but it has no balls.

Neilbhoy how can u say we cannot blame the board. If they were given a list of players to help make the squad and team stronger and don't follow through and get a least some of them then who else is to blame. There is two years champions league money, season tickets sold out Again, God knows how many new shirts were sold and signing the biggest sponsor deal in Scottish history. The money they spent on French eddy was balanced off by Armstrong and Eric sales. To have the team weaker than last few years is total unacceptable.

14 Aug 2018 21:55:39
NEILBHOY, who is to blame for the lack of investment in the correct positions? Is it the Board or BR. Its one or the other or maybe both.

14 Aug 2018 22:11:40
I was about to reply Neilbhoy but it seems other posters already have their heads screwed on.

breath of fresh air tbh, people finally slaughtering the board for their mismanagement.
