    Not a single Club in Scotland has laid a glove on us across 9 separate and distinct competitions ran across 3 full seasons. During a period of unparalleled dominance in any era.

    If this is below par, * is par and above?

    In relation to the rest of the clubs in these lists we keep seeing, you know matched up with European clubs.

    There's more than one way to * up a football club. We came within hours of the same fate in 94 and unlike them it certainly wasn't from over-investing in the playing squad. Swap Craig Whyte and Fergus McCann around and we'd be the Newco.

    Not that I think we are in financial trouble from underinvestment in the playing squad, obviously; but hopefully Lawwell et al know the last 3 windows were disasters and we rectify that this summer.

    In a game that has become about nothing but money for the uber elite teams, I suppose it's good to see our name in the top 30.

    It otherwise means * all and serves no purpose and possibly highlights that we are the best run business in European football and are seriously * over big time by our location.

    Meh.

    I grew up the late 80’s & 90’s as a Celtic fan I know plenty about it, I even went and bought some grass off the pitch and put it on the grass on Williamson street (across fae Celtic Park) where I lived as a wean as a penalty spot for good luck. I digress...... (sick of people using the 90’s and they died stuff)

    It’s been more like 4/5 windows to be fair and I’m just going by what Lawwell and co have done in the past, never, ever strengthen from a position of strength.

    I would love them to back Lennon to the hilt this coming summer but I’m going with my head in this one and not my heart.
