Id say we will break even or better this season after the revenue generated around the 2 events.The Sunderland game was a serious money spinner with 2 additional fundraisers ran in conjunction with it.

The only problem was the amount of work involved which has left most people involved wrecked but it was well worth it.As for the results next friday nights game is far more important hence nearly all the first team was rested last night.

Celtic fans on KDS forum full of praise for the stadium and also saying the pitch was in superb condition.

Yer i must admit the pitch is really A1 , I was speaking one of our lads and a Sunderland fan said to him that he has seen worse pitches in England at the very start of the season and found it hard to believe we are half way into our season .

they might have brought them over for the harps game but gravesen and balde were'nt even on the bench against us.....i think sligomans point stands it was a mickey mouse team they fielded against us!!
