The directors who run Celtic have built a culture where loyalty to each other outweighs loyalty to Celtic. Decisions are made not on merit, not on strategy, not on ambition — but on preserving the hierarchy.
One match does not prove that a club’s entire strategy has failed. But two decades of abject failure, losing to teams that we should be playing off the park, exposes the total incompetence of the Celtic Board.
Successful football clubs invest in infrastructure, talent, and long term competitiveness. They build squads capable of thriving in Europe, not merely surviving domestically. They treat profit as a means to an end, not the end itself.
Michael Nicholson has admitted that he can't cope with agents!For the CEO of a football club it is quite a big drawback.Like a taxi driver that struggles to deal with traffic. Or a chef that has multiple food allergies.Nicholson's qualifications as a joke figure increase every time he is taken…
There has been zero planning for UEFA qualifiers next season, the route to the biggest prize fund available to the club. Another hole is blown in the strategy/business model.
Your gallant efforts have taken Celtic from Europe’s top 24 to joint third place in Scotland. And you wrecked the 25/26 season in less time than it took for Jim Farry to register Jorge Cadete.
But if Michael is unable to persuade his fellow board members to follow this path then he should resign, refuse to sign a Non Disclosure Agreement and give the supporters and shareholders the information that they deserve.
At the aborted 2025 Celtic AGM shareholders were ‘treated’ to pre-recorded interviews from Nicholson and Lawwell. In a clearly agreed ploy both admitted that mistakes had been made during the summer transfer window.
A fan when it’s handy, a fan when it makes him look good, a fan when it protects his little kingdom. But step out of line? Question what he’s saying? Criticize what he’s doing? Suddenly, the fan disappears. And the man, untouchable, remains.
Just another false accusation of violence levelled at every single Celtic fan. A board big on statements and updates but light on evidence.
