    I wouldn't play for Celtic in my prime if i was offered 50k per week down south or wherever and celtic could only give me £10k per week. I know £10k is alot of money but its a short career and you may have a family to consider and support.

    No, i didnt say that. I said its a short career - you would want to earn as much as you could during that time so you wouldnt need to work when you hung up the boots.

    It would be fantastic to play for celtic...thats not in doubt.

    The way i see it folks if your 1 of the best players earning what ever the * you are at Barca, and a massive Celtic fan. At the age of 20 you have plenty of years to go ahead of you, why not sign for Celtic? As i said if your 1 of the best players then your garanteed to be offered to go to another club again while playing for the Hoops. IMO :50:

I would definitely sign for Celtic if they went to the EPL or a European league was created. Its not about the money, people need to be challenged by the best players, the money is just a bonus, if you are that good.<o:p></o:p>

    Youl never walk alone.
    At 20 years old, you have the chance to play for Celtic and become THE greatest Celtic player of all time. You would run rings around the team you have hated for years, you would be able to walk into Celtic park on CL nights surrounded by thousands of Celtic fans. You would go down as a legend.

    The point is, would you rather that be the case or would it all be about money and playing for the best team in the world? Thats the * point of the question. Stop going on about how it's a no brainer. As you can clearly * see, both options have a decent amount of votes, so therefore it's not a stupid question.

    Id sing We Are the people if Rangers offered me that kind of money. You'd have to be really stupid to turn that down even if it was the huns that came in for you


    To answer the question id stay with Barca and then see a few years down the line id probably move to Celtic. Unless they were in the EPL then i would move straight away
