Ross McCormack moves from Leeds to Cardiff for £11m - possibly best striker in Scottish going for £800,000 - it's a joke. Simply English clubs taking advantage of Scottish clubs - nothing to do with worth or value. But ho hum - same as it ever was. How could Scottish football ever vaguely compete when there is such disparity and Scottish clubs treated with virtual disdain. Here's £800,000 laddie - now just take it - off you go and don't complain or we won't be so generous next time'
And gone - Wednesday
My lads girlfriend and her family are Wednesday supporters - ah well - at least he has consolation that he can go watch Stevie at Hillsborough

Having just wasted four and a half minutes of my life watching the video the words rubbish and puerile come to mind, not necessarily in that order.
DfT's suggestion has far more merit than the arcane prejudices spouted there.
The four Home Nations have achieved diddly squat as separate teams for nigh on 50 years. The international game passes them all by but what the hell, let's keep on doing what we've always done.
Still in your case, as a Celtic supporter, I can understand it. With a Scottish League your club can qualify for Europe (somehow) and kid yourself on that yours is a "Big Club".
Wake up, smell the coffee and consider the future.
Why on earth would I want my country to be dissolved and become a team GB? Why?
It would be akin to Liverpool joining with Man U or Celtic with The Rangers.
This has hee haw to do with my support domestic team wise and everything to do with the fact I have no wish to support a team that I have no affiliation to and never will.
We may not achieve anything but by Christ I have fun and joy (and misery) watching MY country play football and long may that continue thank you.

Not really, I think DFT is on his own with this one.

It appears that I, an Englishman, an the only one agreeing with you.
Still, as I am sure you will concur, with age comes wisdom.

It does, but wisdom goes right oot the window when it comes to fitba.
I think a British team would be able to compete with top teams like Belgium, Columbia and the USA.

Correct. But England does qualify for major tournaments on a regular basis.
If there was a British team it would effectively be England with Gareth Bale.

Whoa!
Steady there, those are some real giants you are chucking in . I think Team GB could be better off playing Slovenia or perhaps Norway.

It will never happen for a myriad of reasons and to be honest I don't want it. I would rather see Celtic and Rangers (if and when they return) and the other protaganists sort themselves up. There are some good up and coming players in Scotland as Strachan has shown and they need to play regularly, progress and make the Scottish league and the national side improve. An idealistic view I know. A national league will never happen

Great to see the Jambos win the big game today.
Two goals in the last minute, that's an exciting finish.

More likely looking at the Sits.Vac.
I hear West Ham will be looking for a manager soon.

The Huddersfield job has suddenly opened up for him........manager sacked after first game of the season.....seems like a well run club.

Nah - wrong Scott Brown - watch out for the 20yr old central midfielder plying his trade with...St Johnstone. Looks a really good prospect
