    Why not just get a Chinook?

    It's only been brought up because it's Parks though. And obviously who they're associated with.

    If Brendan thought a couple of custom team buses were going to make a big impact I think we'd probably already have them to be honest.

    With Lawwells response and reading Kris Commons comments yesterday I’d be massively surprised if Rodgers hasn’t requested it already.

    He got Desmond’s plane coming back from the Highlands for a run of the mill league game last season.

    I voted I don’t really care.

    Ego is something that needs to be managed in football and I think us rocking up in 2 Bayern Munich style buses could have a negative impact in that sense. Obviously it could also have a positive impact in some cases, depending on the manager handling the squad.

    That's why I think of it was a big issue it'd already have happened, or it'd have been announced when Lawell was asked the question.

    Brendan said last season he said to Lawell, Desmond and the board that he wants everything put into prearation. Best hotels, facilities, travel etc.

    It's not like we can't afford it or that Brendan doesn't have enough clout with Desmond to get one.

    Would be pretty cool to have our own one but at the end of the day I'm not overly arsed.

    A big blacked out double decker with Brown doing the Broony on the side would be pretty * cool though.

    It's one of those things that would add an extra touch of class but shouldn't be high on the priorities.

    Who cares, I'm sure the board have done the maths and if it works out better then stick to it.
    If we had our own one we'd have to splash out everytime a hun put a brick through a window too.

    As a matter of principle it does stick in the craw a bit that we are putting money into a Hun directors pocket. Directly (if we pay for the bus) or indirectly (giving advertising to Parks).

    As we saw against PSG and in munich "park" and "bus" are two words that dont even cross Brendans mind so I doubt he cares too much.

    Nothing to do with the topic but that's a disgrace from an environmental point of view, well maintained buses can last a decade.

    If they do provide the buses for free then good.

    But also Lawwell's argument doesn't fit, even if it costs tens of thousands it's less than the salary of a mediocre player. Surely doesn't make a difference to a team like Celtic

    There's a big difference between improving youth and training facilities than buying our own bus when we already use a hire company with a good rep...
