Best league in the world

We can always laugh at the SPL, even though the EPL is having a shocker in Europe this season.

I nremember Celtic beating United. One of the worst smash and grab wins i've ever seen, your only shot was nakumaras free kick that was awarded after one of your players dived.

If that's your finist hour, i feel a wee bit for ya. And i'm not even a Manc.

lol, thanks for sharing that dive with us

Rangers
Ally McCoist, the Rangers Legend
Neil Lennons conspiracy theories
Bigotry (not really a laughing matter TBH)
Gretna, with attendances of 500

I'd name the teams who beat Scottish clubs in Europe as well. but i can't remember who they are

Scottish football will always be a great joke to us English folk, until you get off your sofas and fix it.

If it was knock out guess who would have qualified? Smash and grab over two legs!

-----------------------

It wasn't knockout. So you actually did not knock United out.

How did you do in the CL knockout stages anyway? I remember you holding AC Milan over two legs once, you managed to park the bus for 180 minutes before they finally scored.

Apart from that i'm struggling of Celtic or Rangers ever appearing in the knock-out rounds

Rangers last CL appearance yielded two points from six group games. The time before that they lost their deciding group game 3-0 against Lyon, and the Rangers fans cheered when one of their own players was sent off.

I'd say its a bit rich of you coming on here mocking English clubs.

Rangers, Ill give you that one
Ally Mccoist ditto
Neil Lennon, DId he imagine the letter bombs or the ref that lied to him and then had to resign along with the head of referees?
Bigotry, see Man u songs sung against liverpool or Leeds, worse than anything celtic/rangers
Gretna - done ok in the FA cup a few years back, if I remember correct?

Teams that beat Scottish clubs in Europe, we are a small country, what do you expect?

Scotttish football will always be a joke to English fans but who cares as these same fans think PL is the best league in the world take away sky's cash the foreign owners and there aint much left.

--------------------------

Those letter bombs come along the 'bigotry' category. It makes your game more of a joke that this happens. It is also a joke when Lennon talks about Ref conspiracys, which is a separate topic.

Gretna - done ok in the FA cup a few years back, if I remember correct?

-----------------------------

Crawley Town have done ok in the FA Cup too. It's got nothing to do with a club reaching the premiership with attendances of 500 and no income.

---------------------------

The Premier league is argubly the most competitive league in the world. Far more competitive than the duopoly in Scotland or Spain.

It does not make it the strongest league in the world in terms of playing ability, and i don't believe it is.

yet it remains a heck of a lot better than the SPL in every way. That is why we laugh at you

And there was a lot to the English first division before SKY got involved and the Premiership founded.

Just wait till 'arrys in charge!

Don't you see all we need is a Englishman in charge, someone who knows the English game, not a foreign mercenary.

Never mind McClaren, he was just rubbish. Or Kevin Keegan, he had no tactical nous. Or Hoddle, he was just rubbish as well. Or Taylor, who played too much long-ball and wouldn't pick our 'flair' players...

Is an Englishman really the answer?

Fergie is argubly the greatest manager.

He used Scotland as a stepping stone to greater things. But i doubt even he could break the old firm domination now, your league exists simply to keep them alive.

That's the true conspiracy. It's not against Celtic as Lennon claims, it's against every non old-firm club.

Taylor was unlucky to be honest, why do yous always blame the manager??

posted on 9/3/12

I'm being sarcastic hoops

My point is it doesn't matter whose in charge, Englishman or not. The players are not good enough.

posted on 9/3/12

Scottish football... isn't that some kind of contradiction or something?

Most other countries practice the beautiful game, Scotland only knows the ugly game, they are pretty good at it though.....

You are correct, Fergie moved on to bigger things when he left Scotland as for your second point, there is no old firm domination, there is no old firm, there is only Celtic!

Do you like jelly and ice cream?

Scotland invented the passing game, go read up on the history of British football, Queens park introduced the passing game and were the finest team in Britain regularly defeating England's finest,

So what your saying is you guys play crap football intentionally, I always wondered how you achieved such awesome levels of inability. Now I realise you Scots have spent years of practice to reach such levels of mediocrity, I applaud your commitment.

Man U are only worth watching these days so you get a laugh off seeing Rooney with that knitted heid he has now.

Pffft

posted on 9/3/12

There is absolutely no reason to watch Scottish football, anyone with an ounce of talent gets taken out to a real league and all you are left with is 3rd rate amateurs who aren't any better than the lads you have a kick around with on a Saturday/Sunday.
