Scottish football

[Haston]

Moving it to the summer is an admission of defeat imo

I would make the top division 16 teams and I'd introduce rules that'd encourage teams to play young Scottish players

Yeah that would do me, something needs done for sure!

Is this result seen as a cause for mirth from other Scottish club supporters or as an embarrassment for the reputation of the Scottish League?

It's definitely been a cause for mirth, judging by social media lol at the same time it's another in a long line of embarrassments for Scottish teams in Europe.

Pedro is becoming more and more Scottish as the night wears on.

lol lol lol lol lol

Did he neck a bottle of whisky at full time??

Celtic are a half decent team but everybody else in scotland keeps proving in europe that they're basically amateur level. No idea how celtic players and fans can bring themselevs to care about domestic results any more, tbh.

Rangers will struggle for top four this year. Hearts are building a very strong team up here. Hibs are certaintaties for top four. Aberdeen have let a few go but have bought well already. And Celtic will piss it by 20-30 points. Rangers haven't bought well and have a manager who hasn't got a clue about this league. Give me Neil Lennon or derek mcinnes over him any day.

The battle between the two Edinburgh clubs will be the best thing this season. The rest is just meh.

It seems to me that the loveable Bears are really reaping what they sowed in the past, regarding strange financial arrangements, in huge quantities.

Hopefully Rovers can build on the 1-0 away result to Stjarnan (Iceland) when they play the home leg tomorrow.

Living in Scotland you understand the laughter about rangers loss
So much to list
From the pretence they aren't bigots
The behaviour of their so called fans
Dave King
Yes I know there is some decent rangers fans but I've still to meet them

Paddy Power already paying out on Celtic winning the league this season.

If you want bigotry try going to parkhead wearing a poppy

Agree with you
I was just stating reasons why supporters of other Scottish teams are enjoying rangers failure last night

 

[jal123]

I don't know why they're enjoying it when most of them were vastly inferior to Rangers last season, what standard does that mean they are?

I agree with @Mikey_Fitzgerald that Sellick might get mid table after a few years but seriously, Scott Sinclair barely kicked a ball for Swansea and he's one of their stars.

Pub league.

Aye, your a 100% right mate, the old firm hate each over and everyone else hates them, though i have to admit a soft spot for hibs

Could we see some titles stripped perhaps?

Having definitively exhausted any possibility of finding the Niederkorn net when it emerged that the hosts were equipped to deal with a 40-yard hoofed ball, Rangers’ players instead began completing the paperwork necessary to file for the club to shut down and reform as A Completely Different Rangers Football Club Plc.

While the odds seemed stacked against them, Rangers managed to FedEx the necessary forms with just seconds of the match remaining before the players fell to the turf exhausted.

“We had to dig deep to get Form B6557 filled in and notarised, but we managed it,” Lee Wallace told FourFourTwo.

“I heard Rangers lost to a team from Luxembourg last night! That’s pathetic. Really glad that has nothing to do with us.”

There is general public support for this outside Ibrox but the authorities seem strangely reluctant to decide on the matter.

I'd be happy with asterisks in the record books. I think we've torn ourselves apart enough in Scotland.

Also, let him who is without sin etc etc. There's been plenty of bungs and the like down the years.

My belief is that the fairest outcome is to strip Rangers of the titles and just declare there was no Champion that season, like they did with Juve and the match fixing in Italy (Excluding the one they gave to, I think, Inter)

Rangers get punished but no one else benefits or gains anything

I don't think it can be argued any more that EBT's didn't give Rangers an unfair sporting advantage, and over a sustained period too

Take their titles, tell everyone else to pipe down, job done IMO

One team in Scotland. Brechin City.
