Mondays Meeting

If that summary is true, you would think it should make it easier to keep the collective united?

Seems like the board are saying we tried telling you to f off nicely and now we are telling you to f off proper.

I thought the risk would be they put on a false front and make a few empty promises and pledge various reviews. And this would kind of divide the group.

But if they dont accept anything is wrong at all other than fan engagement then what is there to discuss?

The WhatsApp doing the rounds…

The only update is there's nae update to be honest. 2 and a half hours of not a lot of substance.
Not long out.
I can say that there are meant to be minutes shared pretty quickly over next day or so, they will be checked against our mins taken, and then a joint minute will be released. I would expect there will be arguments about the content, and that will lead to our own minutes being released separately, but we'll see.
The board do not accept the club is not moving forward, they don't accept that the transfer windows over a number of years have been a failure, the dont accept that how we do our business in the transfer windows needs to be overhauled, saying they will be reviewing anyway as part of their normal process.
They don't accept that the club appears to lack ambition, referring to moving past the group stages last year and the domestic success.
They don't accept that they wont soend money and spend just enough to win in Scotland.
They did say that the non executive board have to be asked about spending money above certain levels, although obviously wouldn't say what those were.
Ps on that point I was talking to paul.john dykes and he says that when we sign McGowan, Nicholson could not himself approve upping out bid from 800k to 1 mil and had to leave the room to obtain permission. PJD said McGowan agent told him this personally. Take what yoi want about that.
They do not accept that there is a wedge between the board and the manager.
They say the manager approves all transfers.
They wouldn't answer my question about who, within celtic, values players that we are interested in, saying its multidisciplinary approach.
They have no intention of launching any investigation into the leak to the press about the manager. They asked all the board members and everyone said they weren't it lol.
They did accept that their fan engagement and communication could be better and they will look at that, but no commitment as to how or when.
Some of the points made were a bit mad from.some people there and there are clearly personalities on the group that will never agree with one another.
I can see that what will.happen now is the collective will re-engage the silences and other forms of protest following all of the unanswered questions, that wont suit everyone, and the collective will fall apart, being left with the more militant members. People are already saying they are just the GB. That's not the case but I can see it going that way.

If that's the turth then they need to start looking at better action than staying silent for a few minutes here and there. Bleed them dry.

murphy88 · Oct 6, 2025 at 10:52 PM

Get the silent protests to *. The protests should have been full throttle already, after tonight, surely that must be top of everyone’s list. You aren’t getting rid of these * by not using extreme measures.

McChiellini.. · Oct 6, 2025 at 10:44 PM

I'd say that's probably how it did go..

I was never interested in what they had to say anyway. Knew they'd either double down or waffle a load of pish to appease the masses..

Their original statement and tone said it all about how they see us....as nobodies. The damage has long been done..

More action is needed and has to be ramped up in my opinion..

Wee Baldy · Oct 6, 2025 at 10:56 PM

Came on hoping for the best but feel so deflated after reading some of what happened at the meeting. They are taking us all for mugs and I believe its now time to take the gloves off and go full tonto with those tory *. Hope the guys in the committee get all the support they need to fight the good fight as they'll need it

Wee Baldy · Oct 6, 2025 at 10:58 PM

They're nothing but a shower of utter *.

Martybhoy53 · Oct 6, 2025 at 11:06 PM

Denial denial denial. It was that * Lawwell who went to the Hun about BR and that’s why it’s not being investigated. A shower of despicable *. Time to take the protests to another level by starving the income and empty seats. These leeches have to be removed.

CookieMonster · Oct 6, 2025 at 11:10 PM

Not surprising one bit, taking zero responsibility with the old slopey shoulders. They know the fans will never be united in a single strategy of how to move forward.

The silent protests wont do *, we need things moving at a higher level while organising our collective group to speak for the associations and push things on. Momentum is key now but the board knows results on the pitch will keep eyes off them until January which is when they’ll tell us to give them one more chance.

No investigation after the leaked press thing is a shambles by the way, * corrupt.
