There is 'tribal stuff' in English football too ya know. :rolleyes:
Just that it's more noticeable in The Old Firm because of the sectarian history. |

What do you think? |

Celtic and Rangers fans as an economic boost to the poor English folk down South. How thoughtful of them.
Both Celtic and Rangers are still 'big clubs' only in the sense that millions of people around the globe still call themselves Scottish and support the 'Old Firm', despite their only contact with Scotland, ever, being a tin of shortcake biscuits at Christmas and an Arbroath Smokie for breakfast. Celtic and Rangers fate is in the hands of the teams in the Premier League. Do you think that they will ever vote to have a couple of them kicked out so that Celtic and Rangers can be parachuted in? |

Three points made in earlier post and you've missed them all
All that lot just placed you in the 'delusional Hoops fan' corner. For that to pass teams in the Premier League would have to vote themselves out of it.... and the chances of that would be? If the teams are not prepared to vote themselves out you then have to believe that Sky would force that change on teams in the EPL... in other words twist the arms of the people who are their one big draw.. and they would alienate them because? Break that collective TV agreement and clubs like United could negotiate their own deal... would the other teams in the EPL want to risk that? ...and finally, if all/any of that were to actually happen, the invite would only be to Celtic?. Get real. |

Your basic premise is that Celtic, but for some reason not Rangers, would be good for the Premier League, while at the same time bringing an economic boost to the poor folk in the North of England... and that Sky will force it on them. Oh, and that Rangers fans are 'rednecks'.
