What a difference a week makes. Credit the board for coming round to the managers way of thinking. Hopefully a sign of things to come. Quality over quantity at last!
The Board has always backed Rodgers ever since he returned .. don't take my word for it just listen to Rodgers himself. He also publicly thanked the Board for going the extra mile in signing Idah. Long past time to ditch the 'received wisdom' of the media and some fans of a division between Board and Manager. Let's now consign that false narrative to the garbage bin once and for all.
Back in Aus, after trip to paradise on Sunday. Thanks Tino for taking the time for a photo with me, which i totally messed up 😂. Love watching these podcasts when im home from work here..Keep the brill content coming along HH🍀
Why do folk continually state that the Board and the Manager are at odds with each other? Brendan was Dermot's chosen one and he would not have come back if he had not been confident of getting support. The time frame was of some concern but that appeared to affect more clubs than Celtic. That is why many teams were doing business right up to the wire.
Just read this after posting my own. The false Rodgers v Board narrative has now become thoroughly tiresome and only plays into the hands of our envious 'rivals' across the city. Let's all move forward wholly united as a club. If we do the future looks bright indeed.👍💚🏴
Excellent show. Delighted for myself as Luke McCowan on Saturday. I ran about the park soaking it all in for 20 odd minutes, then it was back to picking up the old yin from the supermarket and cooking a celebratory chilli con carne in the evening. What can Celtic do with the money: Upgrade for supporters with disability.
Ever since DAIZAN maeda grew his hair looked better only joking love the guy sprinting on the attack and back defending glad fellow bhoys appreciate him now
Tino James Paddy , I so agree we should be spending that type of Money every year , Lets see what happens if we could get too the last 16 in the champions league , would the board wake up too the to the fact it would be a win win situation , Just keep upgrading the squad , i also think the teams we face in the group stage make it possible , ( lol Famous last words ) i am going for 12 points . Great show guys still look forward too them every week , and cant get the smile aff ma face from Sunday Hail Hail 🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀
Well said Paddy. We should have had players in much earlier so the manager could have time working with them. By the way 2 players much aligned by a lot of the fans Taylor and Scales were excellent yesterday.
Great show guys... As always. Loved the chat about the upgrading needed around Paradise to entice early arrivals on match days. Better quality food and drink options, other than the burger van would be great. HH.
Great points as usual from the panel. Im with james . We should spend on the stadium both in capacity and overall refurbishment. As for end of window. Turned out good. Without being churlish it should have been done earlier . But have to give credit where its due. Both with players in and also out
The recruitment gives a chance for Celtic to properly rotate the squad, injury permitting, which will be crucial for the European campaign. Right from pre season,the tempo on and off the ball has been really effective in imposing our game on other teams. If we want to compete at the highest level? We need to be 'right on it'. IMO Hail Hail 🍀🍀
We need a Jamesy Forrest special from the fan channels. Rather than just a passing mention. He’s going to be the most decorated player in our entire history. Maybe. Yet will be lucky to get a pie named after him let alone a stand on a statue. (Of course the Lions have their distinction) I just don’t have any idea what that would involve when you don’t have access to video content and his family aren’t about to turn up like This is your life.
Good show bhoys and some great points raised. As a supporter living in Australia now and paying a lot for a Celtic tv subscription to watch games the club need to be offering more on that platform too. We don’t get much for our money.
The Board eventually caved into Rodgers calling them out at various times. We should have signed Bernardo and Idah early on and had them on the USA tour. We overpaid for Engels in the end but at least he's here. We messed up the Bogusz transfer and ended up with McCowan. We need a permanent LB in, not a loan with no option to buy. Taylor is out of contract next summer
Still think the fact we've made a 20mil profit from march in player trading is baffling. I don't think we are totally tooled up for Europe. Another cb and forward type player and were properly ready. The credit so far is to the manager and players because the structure of the window was a shambles and I still think we're 2 short
We are in the business of playing football matches and buying and selling players. The last window looked chaotic from those of us outside the club. We fired the last team and failed to get a recruitment structure in place with months of warning. That is a failure. We must not allow the last minute scrambling to hide this failure.
If Celtic announced a stadium expansion the lesser half of Glasgow would hit rock bottom and it would secure our financial dominance for decades to come.
Atalanta have just won European silverware - On the plus side most teams will underestimate us and consider us points in the bag, come at us and we will do what we did against them on Saturday Rip up the park and score 12 points is a reasonable target
A level we should be aiming for too, George? i think this is where we need to be aiming for. be that foce to be reckoned with again. Thanks for listening mate👍
@@PaddyTCE great content - next level , love it. Its gona be a great season this year, just hope we can avoid the injuries and batter some teams in the CL 😂
The board purchased 7M worth of defenders last year and still bought another 6M defender who stayed on the bench cos Scales hit a 9/10 in a derby, so I think the board have done well, don't hate me!
If Celtic are 7 in the first half of the C league can we get 10 or 11 points give the players the goal money and encourage the team that can get them 4 wins
Agree fav goal from we james forrest shaktar k. Top bin stadium was rocking to the core probs only time a have thought what if this collapsed could feel full stadium moving with us. Probs because i was sober, 💩what a night be 4 of they nights coming soon and many more. Been saving for a rainy day its starts here and now 30 mill added to the team probs 20 mill more in jan rinse and repeat till the big cup is back in paradise. Bernardo will be next 25 mill player to go pave the way then arnie next 35mil you know the plan goes
@@TheCelticExchange I am surprised with the level of exposure Canada had over the summer and AJ's performance levels, that someone did not come in for him. 💪☘️🙏
Ask and you shall receive lol thanks tino I ask you on twitter for some guess the scorer from back in day with some classic commentary from the likes of jock brown or gerry mcknee. They were the first commentators i remember. Jorge cadete
The fact that Rodgers had to call out the board for quality players over multiple windows gives the impression they have capitulated eventually after dragging their feet.
@@TheCelticExchange Indeed. I am still waiting on the second installment of the Jorge Cadete fan club to come in the post. 27 years but any day now fine fellow, any day now. My Jorge Cadete pen is almost out of ink!
Disagree James. Lawwell has his hand on everything that happens at the club. Yeh give credit to the board for backing the manager but we need to kick on and realise it's European football that's going to bring the revenue in so we really need the board to back the manager to achieve this.
Dont understand this theory. Should we just have spent an extra £8 - £9M to ensure we had spent more than we brought in?! Sign guys for the sake of it?
My dislike for Lawwell is entrenched, but that's just a perception at worst anyway. His time came and went, and he shouldn't be there because of perception. And let's not forgot.....more has been brought in on transfers than has been spent. So that wad a cash has actually got bigger 🤷♂️
Idea of the super league is a joke. The clubs involved will make no money and go bankrupt. England will develop a new Manchester United, Spain will develop a new Real Madrid and Barcelona. Why are these top clubs at the top, because they are top of a monstrous pyramid. Take them out of that and the super league is nothing more than a silly exhibition league. I hope FIFA insist that any players who play within shall receive life bans in the real world of football. Remove this silly mirage from your minds.
My understanding is that cash in the business, even generated from player sales, once droment for 1 year is then unable to be used (in line with FFP to buy players). FFP dictates that only 70% of revenue + player sales can be used for player acquisitions, agents fees, players wages. If it's true that historic cash surpplus cannot be used for players then this window, in my opinion is another whiff from a board who admit that cash building is inefficient. There has been no investment of revenue. Only investment of the cash generated from sales. The likely 8 figure profit then becomes more cash which cannot be put on the park. This is unacceptable. Talk of musuems, infrastructure blah blah is great but the oppurtunity for the team to reach the Benfica's, Ajax's, even Club Brugge's of the world that should of been invested. Wondering if anyone has an opinion of this which might illuminate my own perspective?

Definitely @TM - the board DID spend money last summer, but in all the wrong ways. This is much more like it.
@@gezobel I wouldn't be convinced that BR signed off on the likes of Lagerbielke, Tilio, Nawrocki etc @gez
Highlight of the week wis the calmness of.......
Kris Boyd in his post match summary.
A BAFTA award must be due.
KB lost the plot eh! I admire his honesty tbh! Some harsh home truths going on over the way just now
Seeing Luke McCowan put the hoops on and the joy in his face was a highlight this week.
I bet he gets regular playing time and will even start a fair number of games.
I agree. He has a very similar running style to Calmac. Very clever on the ball as well. Excited to see what he can do.
I don't get the snobbery of some supporters. He's a superb footballer and he'll keep Hatate on his toes.
@@garymelrose9727Agreed .. no reason Luke cannot force himself into first spot under the guidance of Brendan.
He's living the dream @TM!
