2020-21 season non-Hibs games thread

[hibbysam]

This is just not true.

The latest set of figures I can see state that in September 2019 (a year ago) the gap for average 1st team annual salaries was £895k versus £650k.

Couple that with the figures I provided previously that in the last 2 seasons Rangers have spent £20M (net) on transfers and Celtic £6M (net) then you begin to see that their respective budgets are not nearly as far apart as Sevco would have (or like) you believe.

£250k per player (£5k per week per player) - or about 25% less (if my maths are correct). Their respective squads values are far different, regardless of what they’ve sold, what they can put on the pitch far outweighs what rangers can based on numbers spent. They are miles apart.

Celtic’s starting 11 plus subs on Saturday cost around £30m. Rangers’ cost them around £20m. That’s a substantial difference when you think celtic were missing Jullien, Edouard and Elhamed missing which was north of £15m.

31 goals in 11 games for Mourinho since the start of the season.

So much for a manager who just parks the bus.

What a side they’ve built. Probably lacking depth like the top sides but first 11 man for man is probably as good as any in the premier league.

[ancient hibee]

Celtic are a shadow of the team now that Rodgers left behind. A lot of Celtic fans think the same. They’ve regressed a good bit whilst Rangers have improved significantly. What was a huge gap is now pretty much non existent.

I don’t think Lennon has a clue what his best team is while Gerrard puts roughly the same team out every week and they keep on producing near enough every week.

I’d be surprised to see Celtic win the league this year and with the budget they have over Rangers and the position Rodgers left them in, that’s poor to say the least.

Interesting you should say that as I believe that covering the period since he took over Lennon has the best win percentage record of any Celtic manager.

I think their depth is actually very good after the summer window. I noted on here earlier how strong their bench is and they won comfortably tonight even without most their key players. Would be surprised if they didn’t go on to win a trophy this season under Mourinho. After the United game I fancied them to go on a title challenge, time will tell.

They have a lot of depth, just not sure how many could consistently fit into their side and keep them at the top of their game. That would be my only question, in comparison with Liverpool or Man City. If they either get lucky with injuries, or the second string players prove capable on a regular basis then they’ll definitely win something, and go very close in the league.

Could listen to them both all day. Watched Mourinho’s episode on The Playbook Netflix and it really hit how much of a connection he builds with his players when Materazzi was crying on the street after Inter won the Champions League knowing Mourinho was leaving.

Interesting if true.

I still think they look a very poor side compared to where they were though and to me there’s major comparisons can be made with Ronny Deilas Celtic side - decent first season domestically with a decent European run which then ended with a whimper. Embarrassing exit from Champions League qualifiers.

Second season - average domestically, further humiliation in Europe.. difference being Deila’s side didn’t have anyone to challenge them. I’d be surprised if there’s much more than a small minority of Celtic fans don’t want change and judging by social media a lot of them are truly fearful for 10 in a row.

You are completely missing the point! This is about Sevco living beyond their means.

Firstly, the wages figures I quoted relate to September 2019, the gap will have closed again this year as Sevco look to stop 10 in a row.

As I have already alluded to, Celtic's starting line up was, to a large extent, funded by £24M from the sale of Tierney (i.e. - they are at least trying to balance the books).

Celtic have assembled a team at net cost of £6M, whilst Sevco have assembled a team a net cost of £20M. They just cannot help themsleves.

For what it's worth, I hate both sides of the Old Firm but let's not start believing the pish spouted by Sevco's press releases that they are always the victim.

No it’s not, it was to do with Celtic having a far bigger budget than Rangers. Your point was regarding the size of Gerrards budget, even though Lennon’s budget is far higher. It doesn’t matter how they got that budget, the facts are they have a far higher budget, and their squad cost far more to assemble, so they should in theory be well ahead. That was the point I made. Your the one that’s believing the Celtic victim nonsense, oh they’re spending too much money, oh they’ve got dirty money coming in, oh they’re about to go bust every 6 weeks.

Find it difficult to praise that club in any shape or form. Vermin right through.

[allmodcons]

There is no way they will the league "at a canter". They've just beaten a weakened Celtic team and suddenly the league is over? Cast your mind back to last season when they beat Celtic and went top of the league.




Lennon has a proven track record managing one half of the ugly sisters. Gerrard has achieved nothing as a Manager/Coach in 30 months at The Rangers this despite him having a ridiculous budget to work with.


I know that but Gerrard has a ridiculous budget for a 'Club' that went in to liquidation only 8 years ago and from the outside looking in don't look too clever financially again now.


They have a history of spending more than they earn. Hearts did well when some Lithuanian was "pumping cash in" but we all know how that ended.

Financially, Sevco have very weak foundations.


Just as an aside, Celtic have spent circa £30M on transfer fees in the last couple of seasons. During that period they netted £24M for the sale of Kieran Tierney.

During the same period Sevco spent circa £20M and took in next to nothing.


This is just not true.

I really don't think you understand finance. You cannot simply add up all the outputs and ignore the inputs. The net figure is what is important. Club's sell assets and buy replacements to live within their means. John McGinn is prime example! We were weakened when he left right?

Do you or do you not agree that Celtic have spend circa £6M (net) in the last 2 seasons and Sevco £20M (net)?

Check out my previous posts on the subject where I accept Celtic have a larger budget but continually refer to Sevco as living beyond their means.

Your last sentence, where you start to make up things about me, is a sure sign you're losing the argument.

[DH1875]

I've no idea how much money rangers have and it's a debate for another thread. They'll walk the league though as Celtic are garbage. Still can't believe they beat us 3-0.

Not really got a dog in this fight but I doubt Arsenal have paid Celtic much more than half the Tierney fee so far. They paid basically everything in installments last summer.

Your ignoring all rangers inputs surely? Income isn’t generated solely from transfers. Your original point was Gerrard having a huge budget yet wins nothing, the argument was that their biggest rivals for trophies have a far bigger budget, and then you turn it onto net spend. Their budget is far bigger, budget is how much they can spend. Celtic can spend and have spent far more. It’s very simple. They should therefore win everything.

The last sentence was me turning your argument about me believing the Rangers victim nonsense around. You don’t think rangers will win the league, I do. Celtic are rank rotten.

I think your right. It has taken time but Rangers through Michael Beale now look a very well coached, fast and efficient side with all the players knowing their roles.
That combined with Celtic missing Eduard, Jullian and Forrest as well as the 3 players they lost to Covid resulted in a perfect storm.
They need to get their main players back and at it ASAP. Could also see them spending money in the January window to bolster their effort.
Strangely both teams main strikers Morelos & Eduard have been struggling. Eduard seems to have been struggling with his fitness/injuries and Morelos has totally lost form. If one of them catches fire it could change the dynamic.

Did you watch our game against Celtic? Do you not think 3-0 flattered them and that we should have got something out the game. From watching our games against them both, the oldfirm game and games in Europe, rangers are the better team IMO.

I said Gerrard had a "ridiculous" budget not huge, ridiculous in terms of where Sevco have been and where their finances are now.

It's fairly clear to me that you don't understand finance and how a prudent Club (e.g - like Hibs) should look to balance their books by selling assets and then spending the proceeds on other players.

To rely on a sugar daddy (e.g. - Romanov or Murray) for cash is just asking for trouble in the form of administration or liquidation. The history books will tell you both Rangers and Hearts have been there before.

Celtic hardly got out of first gear against us. We had a few half decent chances early doors but didn’t have a shot on target in the whole game. They could have scored more. We went toe to toe with Rangers and did get something from the game. Not sure I’d be concluding Rangers were the better of the two based, solely, on those two games.

FWIW, I do think Rangers look the better side just now but I think Celtic will
Improve when they get the likes of Edouard, Christie and Forrest back playing regular.

So you meant ridiculous in those terms in regards to that means they should have won more trophies because they never raked that money in from transfers? 😂 of course you did.

I don’t agree with those spends no, Rangers have brought money in from other means, just like Celtic have. Only looking at transfers is narrow minded and wrong. Rangers (and Celtic) had very good European runs, have huge commercial deals, now have huge retail deals, and have multiple tens of thousands of season ticket holders. Couple that with both sides having directors and investors pumping money in and they can both afford their players.

I’d happily put a fairly large bet that rangers will not go into administration or liquidation over the course of the next 5 years. If you truly believe that then you need to stop reading weird Celtic fanzines.

There’s only one person here that clearly doesn’t understand that football clubs finances are far more varied than just what comes in from transfers.

Like mentioned before, likes of Kent’s transfers will be paid in many instalments and structured in a way where Rangers (and Celtic) haven’t spent anywhere near that money your quoting yet.

THIS. Arbroath are showing goo deanery and closing Hearts down quickly, not allowing them the space they got against Dundee. Hibs need to have the same level of energy and press the ball. If we do that, we'll win the Semi.

Hearts are a failed team, trying to rebuild from a low base. They met a poor, unprepared Dundee last week and took full advantage. Playing an up to speed Hibs will be entirely different.

100%. Anyone thinking it will be anything other than a tough match are kidding themselves. This is Hearts' Cup Final. Nothing else matters. They will be thrilled to be thrashed by Celtic or Aberdeen in the final, if that means they've beaten Hibs in the semi. Hibs don't have that mentality.

We see Hearts are a means to an end. They see Hibs as the be all and end all.

You might want to read the previous posts rather than playing with emojis. You clearly don't know what you are talking about if you can't see that Clubs like Hearts and Sevco should be looking to learn from previous misadventures with what you like to call other sources of income.

You still haven't answered the simple question I asked. Is the maths too much for you? Here's another one for you to avoid, how do think both Sevco and Hearts went in to administration/liquidation before?

Billy Dodds saying halkett is better than considine and hanlon, now saying it’s tough conditions up there. Hearts are murder




He never said that, he said he’s only 25 and will be looking at Hanlon and Considine to show that playing for Scotland isn’t dead in the water for him.
I might have misheard, but one of the commentators mentioned Hanlon/Considine being in the national squad, and at only 25, Halkett could have that to look forward to, the other commentator then said, when he was in the premiership last year, arguably, Halkett was a better defender than the two players you just mentioned.
The same Halkett that played in a team that drew 11 and lost 15 out if 30.

[Northernhibee]

Arbroath really haven’t played that well - quite a few misplaced passes and poor crossing. Hearts have been awful so far.

Arbroath will be disappointed. Can't really remember hearts creating much and Arbroath had a few good chances.

[Col2]

Arbroath deserved at least a draw.

Other than Boyce and Walker diving they have little going for them. Halliday is so far of the pace and sharing is miles away. The winger that went off early is tricky and will be out. No Naismith who is caring a hamstring injury.

If we play like we can we should win on Saturday by two goals minimum.

I was hoping to draw a line under this but can't let you get away with yet more deflection.

You might want to read the previous posts rather than playing with emojis. You clearly don't know what you are talking about if you can't see that Clubs like Hearts and Sevco should be looking to learn from previous misadventures with what you like to call other sources of income.

You still haven't answered the simple question I asked. Is the maths too much for you? Here's another one for you to avoid, how do think both Sevco and Hearts went in to administration/liquidation before?

I answered your bold part of your post clearly. I told you I don’t believe that as far more entries contribute to a teams ability to spend money other than bringing in transfer fees. I also told you that rangers haven’t spent all the money you think they have, and that Celtic haven’t received all the mo eh you think they have.

We’re not talking about why they went into admin before (not paying the tax man however if your asking, are you saying they aren’t paying him now?). I bow down to your hugely superior accountancy skills though, I’ll look forward to both of those clubs going to the wall again.

Back to the original point, Celtic have a far bigger budget than Rangers, and should win the league. The fact there’s even a question over it, let along weighted in rangers favour now shows how good a job Gerrard is doing and how poor Lennon is doing.

He obviously brings things to the team as bielsa has had the opportunity to replace him but has not. It wasn’t so much that but more the quality, calmness and brilliance of his finishing. I have rarely seen that from him. If they came from Kane or Salah people would be drooling. Shows you what I know as I never thought he was capable.

I don’t think either of them have fallen that far, even though both are going through some sort of transitional period.

I watched Ansu Fati a lot last season as he broke into the team, it’s easy to forget how young he is, he is the real deal, absolutely.

£5.99 a month on La Liga tv is phenomenal value for money.

I think he's worth the hype. Seen him a lot this season (I've got a Premier Sport account and watch a lot of La Liga) and he looks sensational. It helps him being surrounded by so much talent right enough - must be nice working with Coutinho, Messi, de Jong etc every day!

United 15th. Ole stealing a living

I feel for him. Jose Mourinho is very much the Neil Lennon of the English top flight - works for a while but when it falls apart it can leave a club in a bad place. When Ole took over he had the same positive reaction that Hecky had with us and it was a no brainer for Man Utd to give him a longer term contract and a no brainer for him to sign it.

Unfortunately Molde is the sort of level of management suited to him but that positive spell would have been enough for both to think it was the right move. It's a shame it's not working out for him but also Woodward hasn't backed him which just makes everything look that little bit worse.

He's a good guy who took the job for the right reasons, IMO "stealing a living" should be reserved for the likes of Colin Calderwood and Terry Butcher.

Mourinho is leagues and leagues ahead of ole imo. His spurs team put 6 past United. He won trophies despite getting almost none of the targets he wanted.

He really isn't a good guy either. Him and his agent are very shady, have a Google. Some really dodgy stuff.

His English is perfect so don’t think it’s anything to do with translation. I just think he puts a lot of points across poorly and too emotionally. Gary Neville is as big a Man U fan as Evra but he is a lot better at being subjective and removing the emotion from his point.

[Lancs Harp]

Both teams played as if they were totally terrified of conceding the first goal. Love my football but a hugely disappointing game. I actually missed 20 minutes of it switching over to watch the IPL game (plus reading the learned opinions of the day on here of course)

Man Utd was a mess when Jose took over. It’s never recovered despite multiple managers trying. Needs a refresh from top to bottom. Jose certainly didn’t leave it in a state. OGS had a couple of easy games and then his ex colleagues in the press got him the job full time. They need Poch and a proper Director of Football with a 3 year plan.

Football is treated differently but if I was to make contact with someone like that in the street I’d be stunned if they fell to the ground. It’s the modern way though.

Whilst I don’t disagree with you I’m not sure the person in the street would be running whilst trying to dribble a football :greengrin

Only time you want Celtic to win and Lennon is still being useless to us 😅
If we’re gonna win the league a draw might be better.:greengrin

Mon the draw.

2-1. Shane Duffy lol.

It’s like he’s taking the piss by being so bad.

[Andy74]

Duffy is brutal when he’s not heading things.

Aberdeen 2 - 1 Celtic

Duffy is so bad!

[one day maybe...]

Aberdeen 1 - 1 Celtic

FT score if that wouldn’t be the worst result for Hibs. Their game in hand is against each too

[Scorrie]

Jeezo that Duffy couldn’t play in the juniors. He is awful

[J-C]

Hedges for Aberdeen, big mistake by Duffy again, this signing might cost Lennon his job.

Kiss of death :no way:

Duffy has been at fault to some degree for every goal in the Rangers, Milan and Aberdeen games apart from the penalty today. 5 out of 6. What an absolute disaster of a signing for Celtic.

Lennon out

[Since90+2]

If Celtic lose here I think Lennon will be gone. They won't wont win the league with him in charge.

[jeffers]

I take it Julien is injured ? Can’t believe Duffy is viewed as a better option to him.

Rangers will stroll it if they don’t make a change in the next few weeks. Celtic have probably got a slightly better squad but they look absolutely garbage.

I bet Brighton couldn’t believe their luck getting shot of Duffy. He looks like he’s on the beer every night. And that Arteti is pish as well

A born winner who Celtic are lucky to have. The board and players settle for second best and can’t match Lennon's ambitions.

The EPL must be absolutely garbage

It must be if Shane Duffy managed to get a game in it
