Dermot Desmond is 67 years old, worth an alleged 2.04 billion.
He is, if i'm reliably informed, a Celtic fan.
Why oh why won't he invest more money in our team and buy us the defence we so badly need?
Every single one of us if in the same well earned position would pump millions into the team.

Is he allowed to just pump money into the side?

He could have atleast bought the disco lights JT 😂.

That might be allowed Stan, I'm not sure :-D I'm not saying the club doesn't have more to spend - in fact the opposite. But I thought the idea behind FFP was that the money had to be 'earned' by the club, and that people like DD couldn't just throw their own money at it. There might be ways around it (something fishy about Etihad and City for me) .

Why should he throw his money in Just because he's rich?
Why not ask every share holder to pump in their life saving?

Where did PSG get the 400 million for 2 players then?
{Ed007's Note - They didn't, remember Mbappe joined them on loan last summer because if they had bought him then they would have failed FFP.}

It's plain for all to see. Etihad are sponsoring City for ludicrous amounts as a way of bypassing FFP. It's the same with all these loan-to-buy deals for guys like Mbappe. Get him now but pay the mega fee later because you've already paid one mega fee this year.
{Ed007's Note - Spot on, Kev.}
