catflap 8 Posted September 30, 2016 Report Share Posted September 30, 2016 Your only up for it when you play a English team rest of the time you can't put two passes together Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lab 10,979 Posted September 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2016 No offense cat but the money in the prem compared to the SPL is miles apart so maybe with Celtic they could complete if they had EPL cash and I'm sure a few teams this season would of took a score draw against city Yes but you cant judge success in sport on would,could and should we live in the here and now all teams raise their game when they play the big clubs its not Englands fault that Scottish clubs cant compete financially..... Leyton Orient or Yeovil could compete in the Epl with Man Citys budget not just Celtic its a cop out if you ask me. It's not a cop out. The fact that Celtic have a massive fan base, great history, great training facilities, would be a massive draw over clubs like Yeovil town etc......so when we hit the EPL they are going to attract the money men and that's when we compete. Christ we have no money now compared to you lot and we still got a draw. The 12th man the fans helping along the way. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lab 10,979 Posted September 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2016 Lab you's can still attract decent players as it's almost Guarrenteed they will get Champions League football. If you were allowed into the English Leagues What division would you deem fair and acceptable to come in at ? Quite simply mate you can not attract the best when you can't afford to pay them. That's why we have to get what some would say second rate EPL players or players coming to the ends of there careers. As for where we would start that's a very difficult question. Obviously going in at the top would not be fair so probably we would have to start at the bottom. I'm pretty certain though we would fly through the divisions and once we hit the 1st division(or whatever you like to call it.?) we would have the money to seriously strengthen our squad. To be fair we already have a money man on Desmond. Be silly for him to just throw it all away up here though. Down south he could spend with the chance of getting a return...??

Lab 10,979 Posted September 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2016 Like I say I'd like to see all the Scottish teams merge into the English Leagues at varying levels . Maybe use it as a carrot to the Voteing Scottish public One last vote to never happen again for 100 years minimum re staying part of UK or getting out Stay and we have British leagues Vote Independance and you's are on your own re football It's a very complex situation mate. As fir independence I will not be voting again for it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lab 10,979 Posted September 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2016 How could we have all the Scottish teams in the English leagues if Scots voted to go it alone. Get that sorted first and it might be a goer in future ? I didn't realise you were so involved mate...?? I'll see what I can do and get back to you. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bendrover 556 Posted September 30, 2016 Report Share Posted September 30, 2016 Brendan reckons celtic would be a top 6 club in the EPL but let's not forget thay are in jockland we are in England so it will nether happen. one good result does not make a good team end of you are good in bad league.I mean a good score draw?cat . Have a look at celtics last 4 european results against these so called superior english sides lmaoMan City......draw. Arsenal lost home and away and Man Utd lost at Old Trafford and a draw at home. 3 points from 15 doesn't sound so good imo.thats 3 not 4 . So try 6 man u beaten liverpool beaten blackburn beaten Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Lab 10,979 Posted September 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2016 I'm hoping my wee message to JB pops up soon. I can't put pictures up. It will show Celtics home record in CL of late. I'll not even be arguing with anyone who says it not brilliant..?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It would make us nothing like them. We have a very long and proud history. They don't. I wouldn't say, even with all the money down there, your actually pumping out much home grown world class players either?? Be nice just to be on an even playing field and see what we could do then. Doubt that will happen though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
