Its time to put the cat amongst the budgies. what exactly are the expectations and desires of Celtic fans? are we happy to win trebles or doubles in Scotland? are we happy to qualify for cl football and be triumphant if we finish 3rd in a group? for the past few years it sickens me when diddy teams from outer Mongolia or such, come to glasgow and out-play us on our own patch. where or when did it all go wrong? In the hierarchy of Celtic fc where is the desire the vision to re-visit past glories? sadly in my humble opinion the present day supporters seem to be completely happy if Celtic put one or two over satan's disciples in the course of a season.

Scottish Football will continue to struggle due to the difference in finances, with TV deals from other European countries.
We are playing with one hand tied firmly behind our backs.
I can remember Scottish clubs used to hammer the Scandinavian clubs but now they receive double the money we receive.
Also Scottish Football, only gets a fraction of what the big European countries get.
Another Quadruple Treble will do in the meantime ?.

We are where we are, buzz is bang on its all about the finances, sure we should be beating teams like Copenhagen and ferenzvaros but these games home early and apart from this season we're usually ill prepared, Al take a treble and finishing 3rd in cl group all day and a decent run in the europa, apart from ajax the other year getting to a cl semi when was the last time the cl was won outside the top 5 countries.

There have been 13 winners of the CL from clubs outside the 'big five' leagues. 12 of these came before the year 2000. Porto in 2004 are the most recent team to do it.

With what is likely to be accepted from Sly, why can’t we do what Sevco did with Cinch and opt out and do our own thing. Precedent has been set, if the rest won’t fight fora better deal, **** em.

18 years since the cl left the big 5,its a closed shop, the Glasgow clubs are huge like ajax psv Porto benfica thw turns but the finance beats them, efa are a disgrace the way they've made it a closed shop.
{Ed007's Note - It isn't all UEFA's fault, the Big 5 leagues basically bully and threaten UEFA until they get their own way, remember UEFA is made up of the national FAs.}

37 years since the Scottish league has left Glasgow though so I suppose we can't have it both ways.
I wonder what will happen first, a team outside of Glasgow winning the league or a team outside the big 5 winning the CL. Neither look like happening any time soon.
