Rumours are growing that Oasis will be playing at Celtic Park next summer.
Since the stadium was rebuilt in the late nineties it hasn’t hosted any pop concerts.
Hampden and Murrayfield have been the regular venues over the last 20 years with massive revenues being generated.
On top of ticket prices significant sums are raised from merchandising and hospitality.
Last summer Murrayfield hosted Oasis and Taylor Swift which are likely to have brought in more money than rugby internationals.
Getting a slice of that revenue is bound to appeal to the Celtic board as two of their regular earners take a hit.
This season there will be no Champions League income. As a consequence of that Not Another Penny was launched by the Celtic Fans Collective.
OASIS THE EARNER
Income from all non ticket sources has been hit. On the club website current season shirts are available at just £20 as Celtic and Adidas stare at warehouses filled with unsold stock.

With the close season shrinking the time-span to host concerts is fairly short.
From next summer Celtic can expect to be playing three qualifiers to be involved in UEFA group stage football.
That leaves mid May to mid July as the time when concerts could be staged. At least four weeks would be required to restore the pitch to playing condition.
Back in the summer of 2014 Peter Lawwell negotiated a deal for Celtic Park to be used for the opening ceremony of the British Commonwealth Games.
That resulted in Celtic playing two Champions League qualifiers at Murrayfield and starting the SPL campaign away from home.
As every fan knows income is the main motivation inside the Celtic boardroom.
Hosting the Gallagher brothers over a couple of nights next year should certainly keep the money flowing into the club then onto HMRC in Corporation Tax.
