Old Firm

[Naybrains]

Looking forward to tonights match, love watching an old firm game quite fancy going to one at some point.
Thought the Sunderland Toon games had an interesting atmosphere, must be on another level when these two meet.


Wouldnt mind going to the Milan Derby too! Any one been?

The old firm derby atmosphere is nothing but pure poison. I would advise anyone to steer clear.

Granted Scottish football is pretty dire but did you see the premiership game between Swansea and QPR? Far superior? nae chance

The gulf in class was massive....I fully expect the currant buns to get beat next week v Arbroath in the cup in what will be a tough game but one that may just be a winnable one for them if they can rise to the occasion.

It was never in doubt but we should have put them away earlier.

I do predict a tear-stained interview slamming the failure to implement any sort of goal line technology.

A 17 point swing in 8 weeks shows what a great gaffer Super Swally is.

I had to laugh at Ian Crocker constantly telling us Celtic could smell Rangers......I really thought that surely most of them would have received a pack of shower gel for Christmas but sadly none of them have managed to have a wash yet.

Hail Hail!!

Enjoyed that (as a neutral) makes the title race a bit more interesting.

Was a pretty decent game for this armchair fan with no allegiance either way. I know the standard of games usually goes down in the blood and guts of a derby but if these two are the best in Scotland, isn't the gulf just getting bigger. That isn't a dig, but more a question as a footie fan in general. If the level of the Premier league becomes watered down, doesn't that impact on the players coming through. To be honest I think the Scots have the nucleus of a very young and talented national side coming through but if they aren't getting top level competition how can they expect to compete with the Germany, Spain and France's.

I watched the Swansea v QPR game and to me it was nothing more than a glorified championship game which is where I think one of them may be heading for next year.

Homer, I can see that happening with the premiership or whatever its called where the top 3 or 4 are getting stronger and the rest are dropping further and further away. The reality is the same in both the leagues just it is easier to take a pop at Scottish football.

The gulf in class? I think the opening post must have been tanked up on whiskey and watching through green tinted glasses.

Celtic just shaded a game very, very low on quality. Rangers created the better chances and were utterly woeful. One set piece was the difference.

Can still see Rangers winning the title due to Neil Lennon. If Celtic had anyone decent in charge they'd walk it.

??????? Think you must have read a different opening post than me then .. even the scots on here will tell you scotish league is poor & the same will happen in the premier league unless the wealty is distributed better to give other teams an equal chance .. like the NBA in america the teams finishing lowest get better 1st round collage draft picks , they can trade them then , generating better players or player & cash , ok PL dont do draft picks but something will have to be done or it will end up like scotland
