Champions League vital for Rangers to keep pace as Celtic build from a position of strength

Celtic chief executive Michael Nicholson provided a bullish update on the club's finances to the stock market yesterday.

IT would be entertaining to sit Mick Lynch, RMT General Secretary and master BS detector, down with a list of recent Scottish football transfer rumours. “Ryan Kent to Manchester United? Twaddle!” “You think Sevilla can get Alfredo Morelos for €8m? Liar!” “Fabrizio Romano? I don’t even know who you are!”

Lynch has been just as entertaining as the Scottish football rumour mill over the last week and a damn sight more believable. When putting aside the conjecture and dealing in the facts of the business that has been done here thus far in this window though, it doesn’t take the trade union's scourge of the media to form some pretty telling conclusions about what may be to come next season.
