I learned something new today

Liverpool have not won the English Premier League.

The English Premier League is the top league in England - Liverpool have won the top league in England 18 times - a name change doesn't change that fact

Well I suppose if competitions change when the name changes Celtic have never won the CL :thup:

Quote correct they haven't, they won the previous incarnation when it was called the European cup. Although it was your predictability I was laughing at.

Pretty obvious the top division in England has pretty much always been ahead of the Scottish one, but yet the wins for record at international level isn't worlds apart. If us Jocks could raise our performance against diddy teams ( no laughing at the back ) to the levels displayed against the English we could be world beaters. :)

Edit: taking into account the size of the nations.

Now today is the sort of drama and excitement that you get in the English Prem !!

And much respect to Celtic for their gesture today

Hogan's going to be well pleased, his team is in the final v Dundee United.

Just a wee bit pleased. And it was actually a good game and the standard of football was not at all bad. And in case anyone hasn't heard of Stevie May - STEVIE MAY!!! You have now.

btw did you note May's shirt squad number - 17. And when is the Cup Final - 17th May :)

Hope St.Johnstone win it, got a real soft spot for David Wotherspoon who looked like the next mega youth player we had developed until our club turned to poison and he was dragged down with it.Happy he moved to save his career and now he's playing for the team he supports.

It's fate, fate I tell you!!!

:D

It is - absolutely is.

And for those who (rightly much of the time) scoff at the quality Scottish football - have a watch of the 5 mins clip and tell me it's dull and rubbish. Maybe not EPL or Champions League standard but not as dreadful as some on here would make out.
