The Interim Accounts are for the benefit of shareholders. Merging merchandise is a distortion on previous years. Clearly the intention is to avoid highlighting the impact on Not Another Penny.

He was asked about the impact of the boycott by supporters of the Dundee match. Apparently the club has agreed to talks with different supporter groups this week. Not the Celtic Fans Collective.
Post match Premier Sports and BBC Scotland had exclusive interviews with Martin O’Neill. Neither asked his thoughts on the first half penalty incident. Neither did anyone at the all in media conference.
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.
