I didn't say you did - jumping to the wrong conclusion - the poster who mentioned it wasn't labelled whinny or asked to have faith by you tho.

Gonzo79 15,292 Posted August 12 Share Posted August 12 I think, in light of recent events, we just have to accept that things may get worse before they get better. Clement has alluded to this. As for Danilo, not much we can do other than hope he can make full recovery and is fit and raring to go soon. We don't have the money to go out and replace injured players. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CammyF 8,079 Posted August 12 Share Posted August 12 (edited) Can it get any worse than its been since 2012 to now? Hope not. Edited August 12 by CammyF 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm referring to the playing squad (thinking more about 55 than 2012). Short term pain and all that malarkey. We know we have a bloated squad. We know we're skint. We know we have injury problems. We know we need improvements. We know there's no quick and easy solution. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, but to use a soundbite from Bennet, it's just rinse and repeat. We've been saying the same since we won 55. It's worth re-reading the Clock Is Ticking editorial, we are slipping further behind and failure to get to CL will have catastrophic financial implications (ie they get all the CL money, we get none). Without CL money or significant investment we will be saying the same things every pre-season whilst Celtic rack up title after title. Our current financial plight is down to the current board, no-one else. Rinse and repeat? Bet your bottom dollar. Before I'm asked, I don't have the answers, that's up to those running the club. However, I hope I'm not the only one worried that 'short-term' pain will just lead to "medium" and "long" term pain. It's that me being whinny, then fine, but I prefer to think its being realistic. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post JohnMc 2,750 Posted August 13 Popular Post Share Posted August 13 It's worth pointing out that Celtic have reportedly spent over £15 million this summer to have the exact same squad as last season. The Irish forward and the Portuguese midfielder(?) were both there last season. That's a lot of money to stand still. They might well sign more players before the window shuts of course, but currently they're a changed veteran goalie away from the same team as last season. They weren't much better than us last season, they had more upfront and a stronger midfield, but a defence that wasn't anything special and a support ready to turn on an unpopular manager and board. I don't think we're stronger than last season, I can't yet tell if we've stood still or slipped back a bit. Tonight will tell us some more, and we can't judge the squad until the end of the window. Dessers has done enough to be our first choice no. 9, with better supporting players around him and some decent alternative(s) on the bench we might yet be chanting his name this season. 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
