Let’s be honest, celtic destroyed the phoenix club yesterday, and we could and will get better.
Souness believes an investment of 50 million for players would turn the tide…..as happened when he came to the real rangers ….
He also.forgets that those multi millions spent on RFC led to its death, because it was money they didn’t have.
Here’s the thing…Mr Souness forgets that teams must.operate within their limits nowadays, and to that end, a “”gift”” of 50 million would bring the newco into the trouble zone via uefa ffp laws….something they are already monitored for by uefa.
Souness is a relic, and a bigot….always has and always will be.
Perhaps his heart attacks starved his brain of oxygen and he has problems understanding up to date laws.
As for 3 players being enough…..maybe 3 keepers on the line with butland would stop a celtic goal being scored…but that team needs to be totally cleared out….and given they are skint, and no one wants their galactigos, it looks like they’ll be a long time catching up with celtic….
As for ffp, Scotland does not have such a thing…simply because it would not be suitable for the mordir club
He’s an old romantic ,is Mr Souness ! First of all if someone was going to give the tribute act £50 million sovs ,they would have done so by now rather than soft repayable loans ! Secondly if he thinks that Celtic FC will stand still and admire theRangers bringing in 3 or 4 players and not buy better and more expensive players at the same time ,then he has certainly not been paying attention ! Going by his blinkered assumption , Celtic will allow theRangers to catch up,overtake and be successful whilst sitting on their hands . Whatever he’s been smoking….it is way too strong for a man of his age !
I worked with GS and his opinions are based on his time at the rangers he bought players that the rangers couldn’t afford which ended Rangers fc in 2012 this opened the ipox gates for the current squatters to move in.
On Sunday Celtic never got out of second gear and should have scored more. The first 10 mins the rangers played well but to say they should have scored is laughable if you look the 2 attempts in the first 10 mins both times the players were offside. Souness saying £50 million for 3 players is unbelievable firstly where would they get the money ? They would have to have new owners and reports last week says the rangers are valued at £110 million although this doesn’t include the 120 million still owed to the taxman. Secondly what players worth 50 million would play in Scotland never mind the rangers.
Souness & Jim White are lifetime fans of ‘rangers’ and will talk them up about the small gap in their minds but it is a (massive gap) between Celtic and the ‘rangers’ and if they don’t start running the club as a business there won’t be a team to talk about.
