Couple of things the now. I’ve read through the official statement regarding the kilmarnock game and I must say we have put the boot into a few names from the bbc and from kilmarnock but it was done in a professional manner. Also regarding Celtic going out last night I might not be as delighted as everyone else. I’d have preferred them to go through and take a hammering in the group stage instead as it helps the national coefficient. Ideally I’d have had them getting to the group stage of the champs league with us and Aberdeen making the Europa league group stage. Probably get slaughtered because people like to slaughter opinions they disagree with.

That's 30 million that you were wanting Celtic to get.

Them raking in 30m plus is not a good thing for us mate. We cannot close the gap on them when they are pulling in that kind of money. A boost in the coeffient is all well and good but it would come at a huge cost to ourselves. I am delighted they are out. Infact, delighted don't cover half of the happiness I am feeling right now.

Decree them going through would’ve meant a big transfer kitty for them now not so much their wage bill is 59m a year. so we’ve more chance of getting back to winning things.

Entitled to your opinion but that’s too much money for them to get ahead. It also piles the pressure on Popcorn teeth and it’ll be multiplied by ten if we beat them in a couple of weeks. We just need to keep the head down and keep going and they’ll beat themselves.

Would rather popcorn teeth stayed in charge of them as long as possible to be honest since he's utter muck.

Better if they go on a europa league run. Still playing the same amount of games at a fraction of the financial benefit mate.

They aren’t exactly good at spending the money have so I wouldn’t be too bothered about it tbh. I’d rather the coefficient was higher.

Oh my goodness . thirty mill to them or . coefficient up . would bet you are on your own there my friend.

I know I’m on my own there my friend. But like I said it’s an opinion I’ll get slaughtered for 😂😂 is rather we would had more than one team playing champions league football a season.

I understand your point about the co-efficient which has been decimated since we were demoted to league 2 and the main club to benefit from that scenario are now reaping the rewards of that decision. On the other hand, from our point of view it’s definitely the best thing as it limits their access to cash from the CL and will encourage them to find other ways to balance the books to service their massive salary bill.
This will result in the Tierney money being mostly stashed in the biscuit tin and possibly £10m spent on panic buys in the coming weeks. It has an impact on us as all as we will only get tougher draws for the future but in the short term the less money they bring in the better in order to have a level playing field financially!
