Scottish football

Scotland v Moldova at Hampden on Saturday folks if anyone’s interested ?

I am yes. I'm sure a Hibs fan can verify this.

They do use the Irish thing mate.
Definitely.

 

[Alanbileysfeathercut]

None of their supports combined come close to either of the Old Firms. Do you think tv money would stay the same if the Old Firm left?

Come on mate.
Those three have got great support, I believe if Aberdeen get the ground sorted it'll rise a bit.
Football fans enjoy football and can't be bothered travelling to and from Glasgow.
I never disputed the enormosity of the OF support.
The money the rest receives, yes.
I'm sure the OF get the lions share.

We will have to agree to disagree mate. It wouldn't exist anywhere near the level it is now.

We'll never know.

Probably not, which is good for the non Old Firm Scottish teams that barely anybody outside Scotland gives a hoot about.

As you said.
We'll agree to disagree on it all being about the OF.

I know it is a bit boring but then again it’s not often the national team are not pish

I haven't said its "all about the OF" once mate. I'm saying they are the major contributing factor for the money going into Scottish Football (this is the reality). Without that money Scottish Football declines massively. It's not hard to realise that.

Got to agree with you here, but...
Your old pal IS an agenda driven mega obsessed bore!

lol

Nae bother, Mr Personality.

All about the OF contribution.
I never said, they never attracted sponsorship money.
I'll backtrack to your statement about nobody outside Scotland caring about us non OF.
I could rattle off a lot of countries were only one or two clubs are relevant.

I'm sure you could mate and nobody would dispute it. It's not me attacking Scottish football, I love Scottish football. I'm just pointing out how it is.

 

[The Celtic View]

Eh?
Are you sure Corky?

Hibs , or The Heritage Deniers as Celtic fans call them, were definitely the original club for Irish immigrants in Scotland. I believe Celtic did poach some of their players, though I can't give you any details. I was only a wee laddie in 1888!

I can't believe how few fans Hibs and Hearts get, bearing in mind the amount of people who live in, and around, in Edinburgh.
