Same with Celtic to be honest, they even began considering selling the likes of Brown and McGeady. The SPL in general needs a cash influx, it's hardly fair that a league can barely even afford homegrown players.

Celtic And Rangers make less from tv revenue than whoever finishes bottom of the premier league Since setanta went under.

Bye bye SPL.. Or maybe just a low status SPL without any clubs in Europe for a very long time.

30stone 07-11-2009 12:14 PM

Rangers and Celtic dont and wont do well in europe particularly. Not enough money.
If they join the EPL, i can't see either being able to keep a pl spot.

They get in because they play sides equvelent to championship teams.
They themselves when they have played well against top premier league sides, its like a cup final they go all out to win where as a top pl club wont even play a full starting 11 and still beat them.

I dont think they could keep form, for 38 games against pl teams.

Rangers do well in Europe... UEFA cup final 08... but never in the Champions League. It's to do with lack of funding. Rangers have such a small team that one injury (for example, Edu) has set them back somewhat.

There's too many complications with putting the Old Firm in EPL. Keep the SPL as it is, I love it!!

30stone 07-11-2009 01:10 PM

Suppose so, they wont get any european football.

With the SPL they get champions league and europa.

EPL they would get nothing.

Spurs fan apparently applauded when ex-spurs black cats' names were read out... including Bent!! Great set of fans. (Though I bet they boo when he scores :P haha.

30stone 07-11-2009 01:40 PM

As they should, i hate when people boo if someone has left on good terms.
Its understandable with the likes of adebayor.

Paulton rovers are 5 leagues below..
Their stadium i think holds like just over 1000 not sure it has seats though.

Lauren 07-11-2009 01:45 PM

Haha, 7-0 is still a scorcher, I wanted Paulton to win!

I still like Bent, and <3 Steed.

Benty was really patient for us and rarely ever complained about being the bench so much. When he started he did his best and was top scorer, but it wasn't enough, just doesn't fit into our system really. Worried about him scoring today; but Defoe and possibly Lennon's back so we'll hopefully have some firepower.

Lauren 07-11-2009 02:02 PM

We're missing 3 out of our top 5 players (Cana, Cattermole and Jones), and you guys are due on on-form win... so I'm worried! Defoe is due a comeback goal, but then again Bent is due a 'revenge'(in a friendly way) goal.

Be an interesting match, but I predict 1-1... Bent and Crouch (lol).

Lauren 07-11-2009 02:05 PM
