Absolutely agree £10m was a fair price and if Celtic got more elsewhere then good luck to them. There has to be restraint and we know from old the pitfalls of throwing good money after bad.

That said I don't think VT is the 20th poorest club owner in the Premier League because however successful Swansea Supporters Trust have been they don't have membership which adds up to $1.3b :lol:

And he wants to keep his $1.3bn and add to it, so hes only prepared to lend your club a certain amount. I don't think hes the bottomless pit of money that many of your fans believe he is ;)

We absolutely strolled the championship, and took our foot off the gas toward the end of the season, and unlike a lot of people saying we strolled it because the league standard was poor last season, I lean more towards the idea that we won it so easy because our squad and manager were head and shoulders above the rest in an otherwise very competitive league. Me personally think we already have a squad good enough to survive.. I don't think the gap between the bottom end of the premier league and the top end of the championship is that big. I'm probably wrong but that's what I believe.


If tan and Malky are thinking along those lines you are dead certs to go back down, the differences are big as you will find out shortly


When you inbreds went up I thought your squad would come straight back down.

Just because it's an opinion, doesn't make it fact son.
