A stronger squad can drive Celtic towards six in a row and Europe’s elite, but it won't conceal the failures of the past as the club’s deeper structural problems remain unresolved.
If we end this window with at least 6 new first team ready signings then that should signal a new recruitment strategy.
Come January bring in two more, then when summer arrives if we must sell then do it and bring in a first team ready replacement as well as another one or two to cover any outgoings, so on and so forth.
An excellent article, Andy, and I totally agree. This should be a sign of a beginning, not the end of a process. Deep-seated grievances still remain, particularly around governance and organisational structure.
4 good signings with 3 more required. More still if Johnston and Engels leave. Pass marks to the Board so far but the next 2 weeks will determine how serious the Board is. If they step up then this window should be seen to be the norm, rather than an outlier.

THAT'S A PLAN
You have to hand it to the Celtic Board. They heard the noise and they responded big time.
You have to give credit where credit is due. For too long the Celtic Board have been the whipping boy.
