Don't worry.
Michael Nicholson assures us that lessons have been learned from that unfortunate episode.

There's more.
Glasgow Road in Garrowhill, across fae Bannerman school, puddles aboot 8 fkn feet deep. Don't get me started on the perma-puddle at Hamilton Road, Mount Vernon. Could rent oot oary boats on that fker.
Rant over.

For the avoidance of doubt, I wasn't making excuses for our incompetent Board! 😲
Just re-spouting the story doing the rounds last week on WhatsApp.

Aye, there was that option too, I guess.
Not sure how true the story is about it taking so long, as they had to wade through new, post-Brexshit Visa application rules?
I'm not an employment expert. Could it be true?

They're on their way out the door.
Might take a while, but they're going.

It's a sad indictment of our Academy system that we've never produced a goalscorer of note in over 40 years.
Criminal.

It's not difficult at all to conceive of an ideal structure. The difficult part would be getting him to sell, and for enough like minded Celtic fans to buy.
It's a heck of a lot of money.
Almost £60m for his 33m shares.

There hasn't been any new issue for over 20 years so I'd hope there's a whole generation with a thirst for it but I think if he was looking to sell, he'd do a deal with one person or institution.
That's what worries me, we swap one disinterested, absent owner for another who only looks at profit.

But didn't DD only get the large number of shares he has because the last share issue was undersubscribed and he took up the slack?

I back the campaign by the Fans Collective.
I'd like them to explain what the plan would be if DD actually did agree to sell up.
Much as I'd love it, I don't think the Celtic fanbase could come up with the money required.
We'd risk going from the frying pan into the fire.

We need a clear out, for sure. Fresh blood in the boardroom with modern approach and forward, innovative thinking.
The only thing no one has fully explained is-who, or what structure, would replace Dermot Desmond? Who has the wherewithal to invest that kind of money, other than Corporate monsters?

Gullane! Ffs

Huns went east to Hullane Sands.
Celtic used the CP terraces and Seamill hotel before big games/euro ties.

I'm waiting for someone to post screenshots of Dermot's private jet on flight tracker before I get excited.
I heard it was in Montreal at the weekend....

I don't disagree, I just think it's the least likely scenario, no matter what the fans collective say or do.
An interesting few months ahead.

There's a lot to get upset about with the way he seems to "run" Celtic, but I have a feeling the sacking and public flailing of BR is the start of his root and branch shake up at all levels of the club.
Lawwell "retired" and Nicholson the mute stooge booted out is hopefully next.

I still get the shivers over Artmedia Bratislava and Lincoln Red Imps.

I'd agree there's some sense in that but I'd dread the thought of a new manager coming in June/July and trying to sign/sell players whilst trying to impose his style on the team in time for euro qualifiers.
That has rarely, if ever, worked for us.
