Super_Ally 0 Posted July 20, 2007 Share Posted July 20, 2007 Noticed a quote in the bbc online report from strachan saying their preparation was wrong, it took the players a long time to warm up and maybe they should have trained that morning. Seems to be making comments about poor preparation a lot this pre-season. That's pretty poor imo. How long have him and his backroom staff been at Celtic and how long have they been working in football. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
craig 5,199 Posted July 20, 2007 Share Posted July 20, 2007 The result won't make a difference to them - they get more exposure once more by being over there playing in a "glamour" friendly. Commercially they are MILES ahead of us ! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazza_8 233 Posted July 20, 2007 Share Posted July 20, 2007 Aye but they're going over there and being pumped. I watched the highlights on YouTube and every bit of action was in the Celtic half. I'm pretty sure the Americans were having a wee chuckle at just how poor Celtic were and how easy the MLS Select team won. Not the kind of exposure they want! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They won't give a shit if it sells merchandise. In Bermuda we get an American "soccer" channel - Celtic are advertised along with Man U, Chelsea, Barca etc - Rangers ? Have never seen them advertised at all. So they still won't care as long as shirts are sold. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankly it's laughable. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They make money on selling goods - and commercially they ARE streets ahead in the US market. They are financially more stable than us too, no matter what way you try to sugar coat it. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
