The Offical Glasgow Celtic thread

[MoChara]

Borussia look like they are going to be missing Thorgan Hazard and Raffael, which is great news for the celts.

Dunno much about Borussia. Aye they their top players?

Hectic summed it up better than I could, they seem to be their main scoring threat from what I gather

Southderryman,I have been at more Celtic games than you will ever see.

Tony or SDM

Do any of you follow a local team regularly rather than bragging about who going the see the footballing wing of a British Plc the most often .

[Hectic]

No.You are an ordinary punter that we shareholders value deeply.

Haha as long as we turn up and keep your shares solid job done

Which I assume is the cause of your angst at the high salaries you complain that some of our employees are earning?

[T Fearon]

On the contrary I am bemused by heated arguments from the floor in recent years at the AGM,led by one or two academics,that the club should pay the living wage to all employees at Celtic Park,while never once alluding to the fact that other employees are grotesquely earning hundreds of thousands and in one or two cases,millions,annually.

Fair enough though relatively speaking I do not mind the idea that the living wage would be a good start however I am not brutally passionate about it to push it to the forefront of my concerns. I suppose in that sense there is a going rate for different sections of the industry but ultimately the majority of us are concerned primarily with the entertainment value on the pitch and the associated success that comes with it.

[T Fearon]

Yes.But the people who are so passionate about the living wage for some employees would be celebrating if the club could afford Messi and give him a £600k weekly contract! I believe the advocates of the minimum wage view themselves as socialists!

[tonto1888]

I think we should pay the living  wage if we don't already. As for footballer wages and the wages at others at the club and football clubs in general, it's a disgrace that people are being paid that much.

How did we play today. Didn't see the game as I was at a crossfit competition.

This is a ridiculous comment. And not just that its from you. I see posts like this on various forums. How do you know?

[T Fearon]

Well I've seen Lennox,Dalglish,Mc Grain wear the Celtic jersey in the flesh.

I bet few enough people on this thread can go back that far,or have regularly caught buses at 4am in the morning to head up to Larne,pre high speed ferries,to sail across on a raft in stormy seas,stumbling off in Stranraer or Cairnryan with the stomach churning and legs about to give way.

So you're older. Good for you. I'm assuming we played well today as you I've t been giving off about Rodgers?

[T Fearon]

No point in giving off.Once again,with an important Champions League game coming up in midweek,it might have been better to have put mighty Motherwell to bed by half time today,so that key players could have been withdrawn and properly rested before midweek.
