Return flight to Madrid £200. Ticket to the match £40. Hotel £180. Listening to Atletico Madrid fans sing Glasgow Rangers champions. PRICELESS
Bazza

Pi55 off back to your rock. Anyone called bazza obviously has issues. {Ed007's Note - Big Issues?}

Do you think cause you changed the prices that gives you the right to put your name to It, at least be original YA MUPPET

Ed why do you let posts like this on the Celtic page. {Ed007's Note - Why shouldn't I? The site isn't exclusive to CFC fans, that would defeat the whole purpose of a banter site. Strange question!!}

Thing is celtic will still make 4-5M from gate receipts and Tv rights! And lennon will receive funds in january due to this bonus.....AS

Is that what you paid to get there just to sing your wee song ? Should have given the money to the tax man silly billy

I'd rather lose in spain than lose in court to bain

What hotel you staying at for £1800! You could stay at Ipox for weeks for £180!

I think most Celtic fans were realistic about what they thought would be the outcome of lasts nights game. A draw would've been great for the club but Athletico are a class side.

However, the people of snake mountain choose to be unrealistic about the impending tax case, believing that if they continue to say 3 in a row and we are the people that the tax case will disappear.

Rangers FC not in Europe and on its knees financially. PRICELESS just doesn't sum up how we Celtic fans feel right now.

To the person who said Celtic will get between £4m-£5m in gate receipts, is that supposed to annoy Rangers fans ? at least we get to watch a comedy show every Thursday when Celtic are playing. BTW DO NOT start going on about the tax man etc, do you honestly think Whyte wouldn't have known all about the accounts records before he took over ? that's why it took so long to complete.

It would have to be PRICELESS as yous dont exactly have the funds to pay them:0) MACCA

Surely its a compliment for these cretins to be on OUR (glorious Tims) page and watching OUR European Campaign because they must be bored reading about how their miden of a club is going into insolvency. "for every £5 Celtic spend, we'll spend.......eh, eh, well nothing cause we're skint!"

It's not a compliment, it's banter & btw, there are a lot of Celtic fans on the champions page but hey it's all good banter.
I have family members who are Rangers & Celtic fans, we hate each other for 90 mins but will have a beer & a laugh with each other after the game.

Might be banter but its s**te banter! Regurgitated carlsberg jokes.

I'm thinking he/she just wanted to post the joke and have no reply...didums. There's no doubt CW had a plan but does he have a plan B & what is it ? Administration, as the main creditor he would possibly benefit from this ! Buy the club back from the Administrator debt free however, does he have the football acumen to rebuild it after what will defo be a major setback. {Ed007's Note - It is doubtful that Whyte would be the main creditor.}

Other than the business with HMRC..I think he is {Ed007's Note - It is not clear who controls the floating-charge on Rangers assets. It is Whyte or Lloyds, no statement has been released to determine which.}

Got to laugh at you Celtic fans, you seem to think you know everything about Rangers finances, tell you what, stick to worrying about your own team, especially for Sunday, 3-0 Rangers. {Ed007's Note - Another Rangers fans that has a very jovial outlook. Why do they feel a need to tell us they 'got to laugh'? It's not Twitter where people tell everyone what they are doing. Just laugh away, you don't need to let everyone know.}

Like it ED007. "GOT TO SAY" i highly doubt that this guy is a rangers fan because there is nothing to laugh about from maison de manky mob Ibrox so he cant be laughing. Just stick to your own page ya tumshy!

I know this should be an the banter page but i have to say. rangers have been skint for 3 years and outperformed celtic. lennon has less money this year than last year so no problem at this end. as far as the tax bill that everone is going on about not even the tax man has a total so people are only ever saying it could be up to blablabla. not a worried rangers fan -__- looking forward to sunday should be a good game.

To the orc posters on this site why bother. unlike the poster who said it was a "hate" thing for 90mins I'm afraid for the majority it goes way beyond that and I have absolutely no interest in what drivel uve to post. Its banal, idiotic, mumbling, cringe worthy diatribe. Toddle off back to ure own site while uve still got a team to talk about.

Rangers on their knees you say. I believe that has been the case since Smith came back. Honestly, makes celtics pitiful achievements since then, look even worse. Face facts guys, we have been poor for years, yet have won 3 titles in a row. Reality check.

dear oh dear this is what happens when scottish teams try to play a little bit of football against quality

You said it your self. quality.

they are a top european club, not many better - even though there in the EL - and our performance has been assured except for two slips and celtics pool away run shouldnt last much longer imo

kev88

I thought we gave a good performance. Athletico are a team that would give anybody in Europe a game and I think we done Scotland proud.

Quality you call that quality no chance atletico Madrid were quality Celtic weren't and commons was a disgrace when he came on bangura a thought larrson recommended bangura to Celtic a player who was very good player for yous has recommended bangura well am quite happy with that because he doesn't look the buy yous all thought he was samaras dreadful Hooper didn't look great today ki am not gonna lie he did look not bad today kayal was OK

ref

We're in by default mate but its 5mil in the bank. Far as im concerned thats buyin us a striker or creative midfielder in Jan to help us win the league.

Drew

you must be on drugs drew if you think Celtic will pay anywhere near 5 million for any player those days have gone i think the last time you paid anywhere near that was way back in 2007 for scot brown im afraid you will be digging around the bargin basement looking for Bosmans like Rangers

Tony {Ed007's Note - £2.2 million on Bangura Tony?}

You hardly get £5m for winning the thing - take it you're one of the financial advisors that like commenting on Rangers - you know feck all about it but just comment anyway. Comical really. {Ed007's Note - Enlighten us then and tell us how much it is worth? Include TV rights, sponsorships etc. Remember Sion are looking for £3.5-4 million compensation for lose of revenue from UEFA. Come on Einstein, give us all a laugh.}

1st qualifying round: 90,000
2nd qualifying round: 90,000
3rd qualifying round: 90,000
Playoffs: 90,000
Group stage: 1,000,000
Group match victory: 120,000
Group match draw: 60,000
1st knock out round: 180,000
2nd knock out round: 270,000
Quarter-finals: 360,000
Semi-finals: 630,000
Losing Finalist: 2,000,000
Winning the Final: 3,000,000

You have ticket sales - but operating costs have to come out of that,
Obviously you have tv money too - find it hard to see where £5m comes from. {Ed007's Note - I didn't say £5 million, add on TV money, match day income, sponsorship bonuses for being in Europe, it all mounts up.}

Oh - and sion thought they could play inelligable players so i wouldnt worry too much about what they think . . . {Ed007's Note - Don't be so blatantly ignorant. To come to a figure it needs to be justified with figures, did you not read about Martin Bain?}

Of course it all adds up, my simple point is not to the tune of £5m. And really is there any need for the insults? Or just a natural defence mechanism because someone doesn't agree with ye? {Ed007's Note - Well is there any need to come out of nowhere and insult a fellow poster's knowledge 'You know feck all about it' without even having the common decency to leave a name? It's a defence mechanism against anonymous people with double standards. You insulted one of my regular posters and then moan about being insulted back. Deal with it.}

Well considering we had a bid of £4.5 million accepted for diawara it means we can afford it, go away back to the tax dodging page

It wont be far off the £5million especially after 3 large home gates. I think lenny will get a few quid in january. Not 5 million for one player but maybe 2 or 3 million. I'd rather be in our position financially than most teams in Scotland.

Commons bulked up during the summer to withstand some of the tackling up here. Think he needs to get to a more natural shape though cause he cant get on with his game the way he is.

Just been reading the dribble this guys been coming out with lol cracks me up, due to rangers not being in Europe Celtic receive all monies from any sponsorships ie tennents, Audi and so on, the tickets are being sold at a price of £69 for three matches, at parkhead it will be near sell out if you break that down that works out at roughly £23.33 a ticket, but some ppl will buy individual tickets at a higher cost round the £35 mark, so being the nice guy I am I will use the lowest figure which is 69 x 55000 which equals 3,795,000, nearly £4 million itself, then u got the sponsor money, the revenue from selling food and programmes also merchandise, plus winning games or drawing, the money getting through to group stages in the first place.

Yes there is going to be a cost to Celtic fc but due to rangers not being in europe we getting more money and it will easily be around the £5 million mark, so away back to your page n worry about your debt that whyte is bouncing between companies, the two tax cases you got and the fact your team are s**t, see for beach ball Sunday.

I think some of our visitors are in the wrong job, as they seem to be good with figures why dont they apply their competencies dealing with their own money problems at home. The real bottom line nobody knows until the final credits and debit figures are available but we do know whatever it is will be invested in the team and with any luck a new centre back may be bought to generate some competition for places in that area.

does anyone know how early I'll have to show up at Failte in Glasgow on Sunday to make sure I get in, normally go elsewhere but heard in there is good for a game but you need to show up early.

Thanks in advance.

No later than 11.00 mate sounds daft but they usually let in 160. If the que is round the corner then try else where. Lenny

You will need to be there about an hour early. It gets to busy otherwise and regulars come first.

Cheers bhoys. Will head down for about 11 then.

Not really a Celtic rumour but thought I'd post it all the same. Supposedly the new Scotland home and away shirts. Can't see the away one selling many in govan.

Why would the away one not sell many in "govan"
