.Williamson. 81,942 Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 GRAEME SOUNESS says a Rangers victory over celtic on Sunday would be the best thing that could happen to Scottish football. “Rangers are a wee bit closer and that’s good for Scottish football – it’s certainly good for Rangers. “celtic are still a bit in front. It would go down to three points, they’ve never been closer to them, and this weekend will tell us a great deal. “Obviously as an ex-Rangers man I want that to happen, but I think it would be good for Scottish football to give us a competition again so its not a one-horse race.” : “I’ve been involved in some big derbies – Liverpool v Everton, Liverpool v Man United, Fenerbahce v Galatasaray, but this is the biggest one. “For Rangers and celtic supporters, you don’t become one, you’re born one. “It’s what it means to the football club. The build-up to it is enormous and if you win or lose, the consequences are either fantastic or you’re in despair because you’ve lost. “And that goes right into the working life of all these supporters – it’s not something you can forget very easily if you’ve come unstuck and lost a game. “For me it’s the biggest derby I’ve been involved with.” Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know what but there are so many giant clubs that are simply ebbing away because of their much reduced financial status. Us, Ajax, Brondby, Malmo, PSV, Feyenoord, Brugge, Anderlecht etc it’s frightening how a club like Burnley would now be considered a bigger club than us. Makes me fucking despair! I’d take us starting at any level in England as well to make it happen. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burnley aren’t considered a bigger club than us They get better players than us because of the league and money they have at their disposal but they’ll never be a bigger club. If we didn’t move to another league when we got demoted then we never will mate. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think all the clubs you mentioned plus these and us will het sick of UEFA and tv rights and will have to do something.

Real Ranger 3,193 Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 There's no denying Scottish football has its problems but for me the SPL has improved recently and it's not only down to the current form of Rangers, the likes of Kilmarnock and Hibs have being playing decent stuff and though the quality may be missing some of the games have proved to be decent contests. Outside our games recent games involving Hearts and Kilmarnock v the beggars were most enjoyable and the Kilmarnock v Hibs game a few weeks ago was entertaining. In contrast the EPL is on another planet financially but I'm increasingly finding many of the games to be pretty boring, especially games involving the bigger clubs such as Chelsea, Man Utd and Arsenal.

Laudrupsleftfoot 10,761 Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 Would people genuinely be interested in Rangers V Standard Liege or Sporting Braga or whoever? A European league would be one without any soul. I can't see much of an appetite for that unless it's alongside domestic football rather than instead of it.
