    I saw that Kieren Devlin had been quoted as saying we are net -£20m on transfers over the last decade, I am not sure where he got his figures from as I think it is actually closer to 3X this.

    If you take the squad we had for Lennon’s first season (2010/11) as being at the club at the time so any costs to acquire them
    prior are sunk e.g Ki we paid £2m for him prior to this season but it’s shown as £0m in purchases.

    This is balanced by considering we have a squad at the moment that have cost us a fee and their value is a negative based on their transfer fee to acquire them and will be until they are sold e.g Kyogo is -£4.5m for consistency.

    Then give or take some fees not being fully accurate we have taken in over £191m in transfer fees received. That is not including £8.8m received for Rodgers and his staff going to Leicester. There is also up to £8.5m of add ons to the Ajer and Edouard deals not included in the figure above (subject to % due to their previous club) and the likes of the Dembele sell on if ever realised.

    During the same period we have spent £134m on transfer fees so the surplus is over £57m (without the Rodgers money and without counting potential add ons that are still in play). So even just including the Rodgers money we are over £65m in surplus on player and staff trading over the decade.

    The profit made from the top ten sales brought in over £120m to the club. Not the total fee just the profit made on those deals.

    Sigh.. Getting the pitchfork sharpeners out the drawer again.

    Imagine we let those despicable clowns across the divide get automatic CL football because of the Bhoys club in the board room.

    Ange praising the appointment of Nicholson probably adds some weight to the rumour of his agent being asked to get deals over the line.

    Hopefully the talk of Bankier being next to go is true as well.

    The wee rat spent most of the 90’s and the start of the 00’s at Ibrox, my stepdad worked for Burn Stewart and Bankier was CEO there. They had boxes for both us and the huns, Bankier chose to go to the huns every second weekend.

    What are the chances of Lawwell being next chairman if Bankier goes?

    Shocking stuff. Why did the Green Brigade never launch a campaign of abuse to get him to * off, if this is true? Conflict of interest, as well.

    These snakes are very lucky Celtic fans are usually patient people extremely devoted to just following their club, and that Celtic don't play in Eastern Europe, Argentina, Brazil, or any other fiery place.

    Phil Mac Giolla Bain put an article out about it, but Burn Stewart paid into Murray’s dodgy dealings during the 90’s and 00’s. One of their other directors Alex Willoughby played for the huns. My mum also worked there and won’t hear a bad word said about Alex, but there was definitely a big rangers connection with that company whilst Bankier was there. Found the article and it’s complete with quotes from the rat himself.

    Their cheapness and arrogance has once again made a total mockery of any fan that has put any time or money into this club.

    Something needs to be done about these * asap. This shambles can't go on without proper fan protests.
