  1. Anyone who thinks they wouldn't do this to the mens team as well is living in an alternate reality. They already deliberately relegated the club from the premier league. Get ready for the messaging being put out that the championship is too expensive for the club to compete in and we've got to adjust expectations accordingly. It's coming.
  2. A lack of self respect is essential for working for venkys.
  3. As Exiled Rover just said Celtic have won every single title since 2011-12 until now except that one. If anything you just proved my point even more. The most Mickey Mouse league in the history of the game. A one team league.
  4. At least there's the massive derby clash against Chorley.
  5. I've always suspected that this was a decisive factor in them purchasing the club in the first place. What we're seeing now, the offloading of anyone who has any experience and thus commands a higher wager to be replaced by cheap novices was started from the second they turned up. First the sacking of big sam, then paying players 80% of their contracts to leave immediately all in the name of "cutting the wage bill". Suspiciously though the losses skyrocketed to beyond 40 million. Now they're under investigation for financial reasons and are struggling to send money over. This investigation has been brought on by much more than just the unpaid tax on a house. Whatever they were doing all those years has been rumbled and they're very cautious about making any moves. It's not unreasonable to specilate that their reluctance to sell os driven by a desire to keep things hidden that would otherwise be unearthed as part of the sale process. At the end of the day none of us know what's happening so it's best to keep an open mind.
  6. It would be good to get potential buyers to go very public with their interest. Would push venkys into a corner and get the spotlight on them. You don't want to sell, why? For a journalist that's looking for a great story about how a foundational club has been driven into the ground by foreign billionaires there's a literal gold mine here just waiting for them.
  7. Exactly, they are so transparent. Numerous people have posted this time and time again over the years it's so predictable. It's infuriating that some people are just so thick they can't see their tactics.
  8. Celtic will collect their participation trophies like they do every year so it's not going to make any difference to them but for the likes of Aberdeen and what not it's a great opportunity to cement themselves as the other team in Scotland. Who knows, the SPL might return to the glory days of being a two team league.
  9. Mashed brains fundamentally not understanding something? Well I'm shocked to say the least.
  10. It's great that MPs are onboard with this. It's a huge issue for the town. The detrimental impact that venkys have had on the town both economically and in terms of our world wide representation are immense. This is much much bigger than just a bunch of football fans complaining about a shit team. This needs government intervention to protect all football clubs, not just ours, and the community that surrounds them. This is our national cultural heritage we're talking about here. Long term I think a coalition of many fan groups of many clubs is needed to force change on this issue.
  11. What an imaginative and monumental way to celebrate 15 years.
  12. Venkys was enough to stop me going. I saw them for what they were straight away. For those that still go it's just one thing after another. If it isn't the sky high price or the deliberate sabotage of the entire season then it's the EFL changing the kick off time and date to suit sky or whatever other media conglomerate wanting to show the game for some reason. Just a disgraceful situation where the fans are treated like utter shit by the club, the league and the media corporations. You can't hold it against anyone who says fuck this and jacks it in. I'm genuinely amazed they still get as many people turn up as they do. They certainly don't deserve it.
  13. I've been away a long time, please explain.
  14. Yeah, the least they could have done is wear some black leather football boots. It really spoils what is a good look.
  15. So just judge the Saudi regime on how they run Newcastle United and not how they brutally slaughter children in Yemen. Good to see your moral compass is well callibrated.
  16. Compared to you I am obviously.
  17. Quick question, just the same one you've been dodging for a few years now. Now that Swag has left the building, can you please tell us what it was that he promised you would happen? You know, the 'big changes' that you shat on about repeatedly. Surely you can just tell us. What have you got to lose?
  18. Hilarious. Respond to someone despite clearly not understanding what they've said. That person says you've missed the point of what I was saying. Respond back saying no I don't and then go on to spout more bollocks that clearly misses the point of the original post. 🤡
  19. You miss the point here by a large unit of measure.
  20. The pies over here are made with the flaky pastry. It's just wrong. They're alright though. At the end of the day you can't beat a Wigan kebab.
