Im no really sure I understandI don't think the current board are principled about political aspects such as these in football. As the Be'er Shava example demonstrates. Similarly, they aren't fond of expressions in support of Irish Unity and other anti-imperialist causes. Their focus on this will be to do with the media, sponsors and finance.
As for football itself, I do think the board are too stringent and should be more ambitious without going over the top. A bit more speculating to accumulate would get us European progression and would pay dividends in terms of finances with the larger crowds, prize monies and merchandise that follows.
Are you suggesting Club should refuse to play Israeli teams?
The club hierarchy are anti Irish Unity? Wy would you say that?
IMO some of the above would be expressions of extreme politics, which has never been clubs principle that I am aware. Perhaps a small subset of the fanbase have extreme views? Nt for me to say. But you think Beer Sheva deserved a board at Celtic expressing, im still no sure I understand what action board failed to get involved in with beer Sheva?
Maybe im missing a huge chunk of news that I should be more aware.
The board are too stringent??
Our risk metric for income guaranteed is extreme high risk, so much so that just 1 bad season (this one) we are in danger of needing to actually cut back or adopt an even higher risk model with debt or massive bung investment.
Which in reality, not fantasy political shenanigans, but actual reality means we find a new model of squad investment in a market thats badly broken or cut our cloth to fit income.
Out of curiosity was Bob Kelly too stringent in 68
Im all ears to the better investment plans and how they are funded.
But so far I haven't heard a better plan that actually has solid foundation.
Speculate to accumulate
thats exactly what current board have done and for best part of "evil traitor" lawless tenure he has managed it much better than any other Celtic board in history.
No idea what his politics are
But I do know he gets tarred with a lot of accusations based on his silence.
I guess there must have been quite a lot of read between the lines in the good article you wrote, since its still not very explicit what the Politics the board should be about.
To my knowledge Ferencvaros play football and are stuck in their countries political world as are Beer Sheva?
And by the way speculating to accumulate can lead to death, just ask rangers shareholders and BDO.
