Re: Old Firm

just read some of the replys to this, obviously quite a few folk dont know what they are talking about..
firstly its not about the cash..rangers and both celtic arent too bad off due to the sponsorhips and fanbase that both clubs can pull in...the names alone are big names round the world - believe it or not.

secondly - this is isnt rangers or celtic touting themselves at all - this is people in england within which ever circle making waves and leaking stuff to the press....because of the names of the old firm they are potential money makers..

and to jaysay - you say our league can be decided before a ball is kicked - how many of the 2 teams in the premiership can win that league - thats right...2! chelsea or man utd ( what again?) nearly a one horse race that league....almost as predictable as ours!!
and you dont have to go about how loonypool or arsenal have a chance - both those clubs will never win that league - it would take a very poor man utd and chelsea for that to happen and it wont, it will always be the same 2 - like it is in scotland.

and why the big hoo ha IF it were to happen - cardiff & swansea play in the english leagues - dont hear anyone say for them to get back to the welsh league..?

this non story crops up every now and again and 10 years ago when it was new news it was exciting - but now - well its boring to be honest..and it wont happen ever too much red tape between fifa and eufa..it would open the floodgates round europe and there too much money would be lost...

I would rather have a british cup of sorts...
