@Kevin_19_67 Translate his comments to: "once player see what we're willing to pay them now we're in the EL, they look elsewhere. It's not them. If just our budget/appetite has changed".
@raisedonceltic7 The reality is, we will likely move the goalposts. If they were due to get ยฃ20k a week, we'll go back and say, "sorry, we didn't get UCL football, so best we can do is ยฃ15k a week"
@AGCeltic__ Could be right re a different outcome but look at the alternative you're proposing for potentially our biggest game of the season. We should have brought on a young striker that's barely kicked a ball for us and a new winger who is not match fit. We should be better prepared.
@CelticBoyh1888 Two things can be true. One - the team/dugout had an absolute nightmare from the moment Nygren assisted their first. Weak, pathetic performance.
Two - this team is a pale imitation of what it could be with proper investment by a competent board. Their ineptitude has led us here.
@Gastro_Celtic Only thing that makes this all ok is
- a domestic double (min)
- europa league run to quarters (min)
- Investment in the squad so that we are ready for UCL qualifiers next year.
@Selickpark D'you think there's any way we can arrange for the Cavanagh guy over at Rangers to go and laugh in DDs face, call him a wee fanny and tell him his team is shite? That might be the only way to get a reaction out of him.
@Paidallthebills Huge section of our support have accepted mediocrity. "We're a europa team". It doesn't have to be that way. It's absolutely a choice. The incompetence of the board leads to mediocrity on the pitch.
@TriviaTim We sell Maeda and Engels. We bring in Hogh and Duran. Where's the significant investment. We've made a net profit so far this window. Guys who helped us get over the line last season: Iheanacho, Saracchi, AJ, Engels, Maeda. All gone. Where are the replacements???
@erlsellick And it's not even his fault. You can't expect MCCowan to go and lift the midfield under those circumstances. He's just not that guy. He's fine when you're dominating a St Mirren at Celtic park and he's got time and space. But he just gets bullied in these games.
@geniusLubo We chose to be a Europa team. Incredulously, we have it in our gift to strengthen the team to the point that the qualifier should be a formality. An extra ยฃ25-30m each season and higher transfer fees for our players when sold but, nah, fuck that. Let's roll the dice.
@_CM_67_ No. They clearly weren't. Same as last fuckin year and the years before that. 7 out the last 10. We sell our best players and hope we make it to UCL. How many of those ties would we have won if we'd invested from a position of strength? You talking a ยฃ25m difference each season.
@_mjoneill67 Let's be honest...we were fuckin lucky to have a 4 goal lead. They were the better team over the two legs. Nae squad depth. Weak in midfield. No pace or power.
@_mjoneill67 Who the fuck else would you blame? The fact that we're starting Yang and bringing on McCowan, Tounekti, Murray, Ralston, Scales and Hatate (been checked out for at least a year) is absolutely the board's fault.
@_mjoneill67 This was the same shite last year. We can and will blame the board because we shouldn't be in a position where we're turning to McCowan, Scales, Tounekti and a checked out Hatate. We we're 4-0 up and the subs actually weakened the team.
@TheParkheadF Normally i jump to his defence cause he's an easy target. He's never had pace or power. But that was a shocking performance. He fucked up everything he touched.
