Zander1903 Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 Dunno if this has been discussed before but I was just thinking about how good/bad the spl would be without the Huns/Tims? of course it would give other teams a chance to win things but would it be financially viable? 6 Link to comment

Site Sponsor Dom Sullivan Posted November 9, 2017 Site Sponsor Share Posted November 9, 2017 Would be fucking brilliant. One has already died however. Can Sevco be classed as one of the ugly sisters or just a young upstart? Link to comment

V for Vendetta Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 Would be excellent. Completely viable and nonsense that anyone would suggest otherwise. But if cloth cutting required but no bother. Link to comment
Don Fonte Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 Why wouldn't it be financially viable @@Zander1903? Genuinely interested why you'd think that. 1 Link to comment
Ernie McCracken Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 Depends. If the old firm have nowhere to go we'll be told it'll be armageddon. If they get invited to the EPL or some euro league shite, we'll be told it would be he best thing to happen to Scottish football. See Walter Smith's schizophrenic ramblings on the matter.

Zander1903 Posted November 9, 2017 Author Share Posted November 9, 2017 Why wouldn't it be financially viable @@Zander1903? Genuinely interested why you'd think that.its been a thought I've had in my head for a while now, hardly a season passes without them hoping to get into the English league setup I was just thinking without sevco & celtic there should be more interest in the league & cups as there would be more chance of other teams picking up silverware so hopefully that would lead to bigger attendances at games but it would probably mean a short term drop In tv money without the media attention Link to comment
strachanmcgheegoal Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 Cant help feeling theyd want the safety knickers of leaving a colt team in the Scottish set up, just to make sure 80% of the fan base remain outwith our grasp. Link to comment

The rest of the leagues teams would be powerless to prevent them doing it because a select few chairmen would also back them. Would never happen because the guffs wouldn't let them in but if they somehow overcame that obstacle then this would be exactly what they would try to do Link to comment
Dal Riata Don Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 Never going to happen so stop torturing yourself thinking about it. I was just thinking about how good/bad the spl would be without the Huns/Tims? of course it would give other teams a chance to win things but would it be financially viable? Like saying; if money didn't exist how would you live your life? Well it does, so stop day dreaming and accept it. Link to comment
Dynamo Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 Not just the clubs though, can their supporters fuck off to another country too?Think how nice a place scotland would be with out the old firm ever existing. Link to comment

THIS If they got their move to england, Their fans would still be here and the media would still be full of it...........probably worse. England would need to want them too and I can't see the appeal for English clubs. Yes they would add a famous fixture to their list but is the baggage worth it? Imagine Rangers or Celtic fans acting they way they do agains West Ham, Chelsea, Leeds, Liverpool or worse, Millwall. It would be carnage Link to comment

reekie_dock Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 Let's be honest Sevco would be left behind they have nothing to offer they think cause they get 40k + following them they are a force. Newcastle get that and what have they won ? That said The Promised land would not want the religious drivel that comes from Glasgow poisoning the brand. It's quite funny that if they had removed that element from the song sheet they may have been taken in by EPL now though they have no chance getting in. Link to comment

S2RDS Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 Who would want them? They arent even liked in their own country. Plastic paddies and fucking Union Jack waving wankers, full of bigotry and hate. Cant see anyone taking them in with open arms. We are stuck with them unfortunately. Link to comment
TheRock Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 English football coverage is so ubiquitous in Scotland already anyway, I'd worry about what future coverage of the Scottish game would be like if they took Rangers and Celtic away. There are clearly opportunities to be had if they left, I'm just worried if the current people at the top of the SPFL/SFA are the people who I'd want to drive Scottish football forward at such a pivotal moment. Although, I would also guess there might be a sudden exodus of board level type people at the SPFL and SFA if Celtic and Rangers were no longer involved in the Scottish game anyway. Link to comment

"Coverage" of the game should result in more fans actually going to matches at 3pm on a Saturday instead of matches being arranged to suit a TV schedule. Fuck Sevco Fuck Smelltic Link to comment

fine-n-dandy Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 The ugly sisters wont be moving to the english league, pointless discussion.You could say similar regarding most of the threads on here. The SFA/SPFL are shite thread............ yes indeed they are. Pointless discussion McInnes thread, current topic is him going to sevco........ pointless discussion as he won't Sevco thread........pointless discussion in general. Point being that this is a discussions forum for speaking pish, so nothing is really not worth saying, other than this current post. This is a little pointless, as can a lot of my posts be. Maybe slightly tedious even.But I would just like to say....... after all these pointless points. Well ask a question of you really. If this in fact is a pointless discussion & therefore another pointless thread. Was it not a little bit pointless that you opened the thread & made a pointless comment? Link to comment
Jessticulate Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 I live in Dorset and this is a CONSTANT topic of football chat down here.

Dubuque Wahlert Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 The only way I can see we could get rid of the two cheeks is to give up the Scottish League altogether and just join the English league. We would all have to start at the bottom but maybe the FA would have a Scottish region section of the pyramid. Would we really be worse of somewhere in some Anglo league than we are just now with the poor TV deals and continued mis-management by the SFA and SPFL? Link to comment

Expanding the conversation with all the sincerity I can muster my suggestions that PSG and Monaco should join the English prem, and maybe Bayern could play in Spain along with the Milan clubs is just met with bafflement. but the guffs have already accepted the the welsh & indeed a Scottish club into their leagues, so your camparing to Germany etc. is a bit shit. Monaco playing in France maybe but that would be counter productive to your pointless point You do love a long post don't you. Speaking a lot without saying anything as usual.Yes. Some might say a little bit pointless. You know,, like your post was & to which I replied with an overextended pointless post just to highlight my pointless point regarding your post being utterly pointless & also ironically hypocritical. It's actually the work of genius Link to comment

Always been under the impression it was a complete irrelevance to them. 1 Link to comment
