While Rodgers looked to kick on from Munich Nicholson’s target was very different, he decided to cash in as the vendetta between the decision makers and the manager kicked in, a relic from the 2018/19 season.
Celtic fans are used to missing out on the rumoured targets to push the club on, this time around Nicholson has gone out of his way to weaken the team through the transfers of Nicolas Kuhn and finally Adam Idah.
After scrolling through repetitive paragraphs the duped reader discovers that the Annual Report for 2025 will be published in September with a few bland paragraphs covering turnover of around £150m and a paragraph expressing disappointment about failing to reach this season’s Champions League.
“There’s conditions we want to be able to improve because I’m not the type of manager that’s good at maintaining anything. If there’s just something to maintain, I’m not the manager for Celtic.”
There’s interest in Adam but, obviously, no one can leave here unless we get players in to replace. It’s as simple as that. There’s been negotiations and chatter around it, but I have to have players in here before I can consider letting anyone go.
A trip to Ibrox is normally one of the diary highlights of the year for the Celtic executives, today they could have met up with Andrew Cavenagh and the new owners of the Tribute Act formed by Charles Green in 2012.
After six horrific transfer windows Michael Nicholson is now staring at his biggest ever humiliation.Not even a ‘penalty to Rangers’ gag to his boardroom chums will mask the failings of the Celtic CEO.The soon to be published club accounts for the year to 30 June 2025 is likely to reveal…
The players that watched Kyogo and Kuhn get sold realised that they could be next, that they were more valued on the Balance Sheet than on the team sheet, that Nicholson would rather sell players than build a team.
After the late, late show of summer 2024 it seems that Nicholson is wanting to repeat that white knuckle ride with the added jeopardy of Celtic being involved in a Champions League Play Off.
