Stop right there
"think 3/4 of the EPL could boast a record like ours"

For that to be true, 15 teams in the epl would need to be guaranteed a european place every year, just by turning up

Celtic have that opportunity..they don't

celtic can coast at 90% of games when not in europe..epl can't

Re: The Scottish Football Thread
 

Get rid of that pompous idiot then Celtic might be a power in Scottish Football. The reason that they qualify each season for Europe and win titles is that referee's are always in Celtics favour and they do not have any fierce challengers.

Celtic used to be the force in Scottish football, but there is again no challengers.

If, l am not wrong, didn't Lennon have a go at a fellow manager on Tv, and didn't someone take a pop at him at his home, and didn't a referee in Scotland get assaulted as he done something again Celtic.

And, before you say l have a grudge against Celtic, My wife's family are all Celtic fans, l used to support them until that Idiot Lennon, who would not last five minutes in the EPL, took over.

Until there is another club big enough to take on Celtic, then you might as well give them the title every year.

When the played in London for The London Cup, Celtic fans were banned from the Pubs surrounding Wembley, and the way they were singing inside the ground towards English fans were appalling.

You want to watch YouTube.

Re: The Scottish Football Thread
 

Jeez are u being deliberately dense? The point is when we are in Europe. You said Celtic were Championship level, oh you know what forget it.

Re: The Scottish Football Thread
 

I was reacting to the point that you have been in europe several years...as that makes celtic better than most epl sides.

I don't presume that is true, and being in europe is a pointless comparison, as celtic are always in europe.

Re: The Scottish Football Thread
 

I repeat what l have said, the only reason why they always in Europe is because there is no strong competition in Scotland to compete with them and the games are easy - no disrespect to other Scottish clubs.

Also, l cannot see Celtic competing with the strong pace in the EPL, its much faster in England.

Re: The Scottish Football Thread
 

Bigger fan base but other teams fans aremore loyal. Man City and Chelsea, vice greatest fans in the world. ;)
I must have missed the news stories about City and Chelsea having to close parts of their stadium as their fans can't be bothered turning up... ;)

Killie next, Aberdoom and Motherwell don't look too healthy either.

Yep. Hearts are toast. They need £500k purely to get to the start of the season, they have negative cashflow with their recent share issue, 6000 seasons tickets worth of money and everything other income source already spent.
They can't sell next seasons strips as they haven't paid the suppliers and their stadium is about to be sold out from under them.

They have to try and persuade fans to buy season books for reserve team games next year. :erm:

The real question is what happens if they muddle through to play the first few games then go under. Also what if Dundee decide to appeal the decision of the SPL to declare that Hearts weren't insolvent and didn't warrant a points deduction which would have relegated them.

Re: The Scottish Football Thread
 

Still giving out misinformation. :rolleyes:

How's the season ticket sales going for the new club you've aligned yourself too Deek? A friendly word of advice. Keep your eye on things with Spivco rather than concern yourself with the finances of other Scottish teams.

Those that spent what they never had deserve what's coming to them.

Re: The Scottish Football Thread
 

Scottish football is probably the only place where the most interesting stories and events take place in the close season. We already know who will win 2 of the 4 leagues next season before a ball has been kicked :(

Re: The Scottish Football Thread
 

Alternatively you can put your money in a brown envelope marked 'Never to be seen again as per share issue cash' and then set it on fire before popping it into the nearest bin as it'll end up with exactly the same end result as buying a hearts season ticket with cash.

Re: The Scottish Football Thread
 

Have Spivco got credit facilities yet? How much is there left of the money that was raised in the share issue. Is there enough money left to repair the dangerously rusty roof?

Re: The Scottish Football Thread
 

Another deluded post from the obsessed.

It must really hurt you to know that your more successful rivals are still thriving while celtic are having to bribe fans along to the piggery to see their team struggle in a one horse race with their team of £25 million rated superstars. :D

I imagine your witty comeback will be along the lines of "In administration again yet?", "Criag Whyte still owns you" or "Ooh zombie team" :rolleyes:

Re: The Scottish Football Thread
 

C'mon guys, can't this tit for tat stuff about Rangers and Celtic be dropped? Everyone likes a bit of banter but an element of animosity seems to be slowly building between the 2 of you. We don't want a repeat of the 1980 cup final, leading to alcohol being banned whilst visiting cable forum :D

Re: The Scottish Football Thread
 

Do you seriously have no concerns about the current situation at Ibrokes?:shocked:

As George W. may have once said
Fool me once shame on you
Fool me twice shame on me
Fool me thrice "Hello Hello we are the most successful team ever"

Who is Criag Whyte?

@Chad it's just banter on my part ;)

I've never referred to the rust and asbestos ridden bigetdome on the southside of as a piggery.

Re: The Scottish Football Thread
 

Celtic, Hibernian and St Johnstone await European draws.

Now who would those wise sages across the border like?.

Re: The Scottish Football Thread
 

For Hibs...any team that consists of cooks, dishwashers etc...and then for Hibs to lose 20-0 :D

Not bothered about the rest
