TMB 14,167 Posted June 26, 2016 Share Posted June 26, 2016 I'm more than happy for England to get the fixture but first they need toĀ grant us entryĀ in to their cash cow leagues.Ā How is it in the interest of Scottish football to sell off its biggest fixture?Ā If they're going to give each club Ā£10m I might see the point but telling us it's in our own best interest is a fucking joke.Ā Tell 'em to fuck off Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IbroxBurnzy 484 Posted June 26, 2016 Share Posted June 26, 2016 Dying? Both clubs are looking at record Seasin Ticket sales ffs. There'sĀ Ā more interest now than ever.

Why not exploit it.Ā I buy a season ticket to see my team at Ibrox, if what you are saying is going to happen then why not just move Rangers toĀ where the money is and sod the fans, who are the heart and soul of the club.Ā Secondly every move out of Scotland has been met with derision from everybody within the game and rightly so because we are not talking about football anymore we are talking about greed to fill the pockets of everybody in the game and not the fans. You may be right about it happening but for me I will stop going to second class games. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't see 100k Rangers and Celtic fans travelling abroad together for a game....England/Russia would be like a tea party in comparison. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RFC55 108,839 Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 If you read the article it's about the rivalry being dented abroad, not at home. It also Ā goes on to talk about other clubs like napolI etc who are also struggling.Ā Talks about a napolI fan who's kids are growing up supporting barca or some suiteĀ Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam English Loyal 945 Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 I have a better idea.Ā We'll set up a team in the MLS or whatever it's called. The plastics do the same. Hey presto- The Old Firm in US and A. They can base themselves in some Irish American crap hole and we'll set up shop in some random place like Las Vegas or somewhere.Ā Sorted.

WATP-FOREVER 5,231 Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 It's an easy solution - celtic are an oirish club and Rangers are a Scottish club - send celtic back to oirlund, (so they finally play a home match) - and Rangers stay where we are, in Scotland.

borderbear 150 Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 Reading the whole article it sound like this guys whole theory on the global decline of the Old Firm's appeal is based on one old Italian Napoli fan who runs a pizza shop in New Jersey.

Can you imagine if we were in some competition against them and it was played in America? All the daft yanks bringing their weans with their foam fingers and pom-poms to sing "lets go team" and then they turn round the corner to see a bunch of pissed up Scottish folk singing about being up to the knees in each others blood and battering fuck out of each other Yanks are fucking hilarious, I love going on the soccer sub on reddit and watching them all get in a rage every time someone laughs at their fans or when they try to compare Euro football culture with American sports culture or when theyre talking to someone whos been an Arsenal ST holder for 20 years and they go "how can you say im not a fan, im as much of a fan as you, i watch the games every saturday with my jersey on supporting the team!" when they chose to support Arsenal like 2 years ago. I love that shit, comedy gold. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
