You’d probably have to pay him a wee bit more to make the move to Scotland instead of stay in England, plus you’d need to pay his backroom staff. Its impossible to know what the required figure would be obviously, but €10m is a decent stab at it I think. Point is, this isn’t happening unless Desmond decides to fund it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’d be better using his time constructively and losing 3 stone and getting fit. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lad has basically said it is going to take 10m euros to hire Benitez with absolutely no knowledge of the situation. He's literally picked a sum out of the air. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's literally picked a sum out of the air. He then went on to give his reasoning for that figure using his last contract in British football as reference so it has a bit more basis than just being plucked out of thin air. It was quite clearly a bit of guesswork but rather than say whether you thought it was reasonable/unreasonable you’ve went in at the deep end. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What he earned in a different country several years ago has no bearing on what he might except now. It's the usual tit for tat Old Firm pish. That's why I called it out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not sure how someone estimating what it would take to sign Benitez can be considered tit for tat Old Firm Pish, and you never made it clear that’s why you were “calling it out” so you maybe need to explain that a bit more.

This is why I have very little interest in the guys that are running Celtic because of the type of people they need to be in their positions, you have a bee in your bunnet on Lawwell why? The decision makers make unpopular decisions even if it upsets their costumers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The decision makers make unpopular decisions even if it upsets their costumers.Like offering Neil Lennon the job the day after the season ticket renewal deadline [emoji23].Lawell doesn't give a toss about the fans, his job is to milk them dry of their hard earned cash and he has been brilliant at it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
