Scottish football, what is the point???

Scottish football, what is the point???

It's shite, no-one cares (outside of Scotland), either Rangers or Celtic win, then they get thrashed in Europe cos the difference between playing HIbs and playing anyone else in Europe is enormous.

And the lower divisions! is there anything more depressing in sport than forfar playing fife on a sunday afternoon.

I met someone once who told me he was a Ross County fan cos he had the misfortune to be born there. That depressed me for days

/end of rant

You could say the same about supporting a lot of clubs. I think it just shows that you just don't get football.

What's the point in supporting a mediocre English - a Birmingham or Charlton for example.

It's born and bred into you. The passion that lower division fans show is second to none.

Closet Rangers fan imo

I knew you'd be straight on my case

You were raining on my parade.

well done the hoops :wiggle:

i was always a rangers fan...ally mccoist & gary mcsweegan played for them & big dunc until i nearly got beat up by a nutty glasweggie cos i'm catholic...i now hope the hoops do well

thats out friendship pretty much over ...still was nice while it lasted xx

agree with that and si comments are pretty pish what the point of the premier league where its only going to be chelsea that will win it for the forseeable future and maybe arsenal or man utd the odd time
just you disilluisioned newcastle fans continue to languish in the lower regions

big crowd ,big stadium ,small ambitions

I always look out for Elgin City's results.. (3rd Div).. I'm determined to get to a game of theirs.

I went to a shit load of Aberdeen games when i lived up there between 1989 and 2000 and saw some wicked games agaisnt the like of Hibs, Barry Town, Brondby and Dundee


and some PROPER hostile atmospheres


as Craig says, there is more to Football than how many flip flaps Ronaldinho is going to do against Milan in the semis.

I never get to see my team (Spurs) and going to the game on Saturday and getting grief from the minute i hit the pub at midday to going home at 2am really made me remember why i am a yid for life

I've been to Elgin a few times


I wouldnt bother going, its a HORRIBLE town

gay simon what are u doing in the sport thread anyway?

trust me he was a psycho...you'd understand if you knew him

i was hoping there would be some photos of Thierrys legs in here

I think he probly meant me

Re: Scottish football, what is the point???

well apart from the freek blackburn win... in the past 10 years only 3 teams have contested the prem.... but there's more teams in the prem... so an extra team aint to much. could be worse though.... in ireland i think linfield win every fucking year!

either or or both is a possibility

Re: Re: Scottish football, what is the point???

premiership is shite as well to be fair

its mad that a scottish 2nd division team could be in europe next year gretna

who will be in spl in 2007/08 season

ok, scottish football fans, can you explain to me why this happens?

taken from bbc site:

"The league splits into two after the weekend of 8 and 9 April, when all sides will have played 33 games.

At the bottom, Livingston are already deep in relegation trouble, occupying the one relegation place, and are 10 points adrift of their nearest rivals. "

why??
