Utter shambles of a club, with delusions of grandeur in europe who will get no where in either european competition.
Celtic are no more than an spl team who'll continue to con fans into believing otherwise.
We will continue to be led up the garden path by the powers that be and fleeced for every penny we have for more of the same sh*t every year.
The BR saga and the appointment of NL is all the proof you need to see the lack of ambition, guile, plan and direction the club have. They will continue to tell the fans what they want to hear and never deliver any of it.

Its the 'delusions of grandeur in Europe' bit that intrigues me. I was trying to explain it to my old man (a hibee) at the weekend. Europe is apparently not part of the business model, despite the ample direct and immediate cash incentives, and indirect benefits of the prestige that comes with it, which has in the recent past allowed us to recruit folks like BR and Moussa and Edouard and Ntcham. No, that's not part of the plan at all.

Its only the fans that have any feeling that Europe is essential to who the club are rather than incidental. Much more money is to be made elsewhere. For instance, in "producing" players like Tierney that go on to generate millions. That's the industry we're in: making these luxury packages for the luxury market of the EPL, mostly. As soon as they might be of serious use to us in other sporting pursuits they are punted (sooner, usually) . Its a factory, and the conveyer-belt mentality won't be interrupted by a more or a less appealing fixture list (except slowly, and indirectly) .
