Scottish football

I don't know do people in here follow it at all, I myself do just a little, but damn they've come down.

Usually either Celtic or Rangers make it to the Champions League and they both are competing in the Europe League, but tonight all Scottish clubs crashed out of the Europe League, too. Celtic, Rangers and Hearts were playing.

And last season Rangers drew Manchester United 0 - 0 at Old Trafford.

Seems like Scottish football is diving in deep waters right now. If you've got thoughts on it or maybe opinions on Barcelona and Real Madrid, please feel free to post them.

Rangers and Celtic would get relegated in EPL imo.

If Scotland wasn't attached to England nobody would care about their football.

I actually think their football is at it's lowest quality wise. You only have to look at the way Spurs destroyed Hearts last week...Hearts who finished 3rd in their league.

It's Championship or even league 1 level football.

Nobody does anyway lol, i argued a few weeks ago with a scot in a bar that West Brom would beat Rangers and Celtic and i stand by it.

Was gonna post this topic. Absolutely terrible.

On the other hand, Stoke absolutely raped FC Thun without their best 2 players (Huth and Ethrington)..and FC Thun eliminated Palermo.

Birmingham, a Championship struggler, also managed to eliminate that Portuguese team.

THIS IS ENGLAND !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

hearts 0-0 spurs right now

It's a weakened spurs side though. I think it might also be a weakened hearts side too, not so sure though.

Nonsense. The SPL is still the best league in the world. Much better than the dross we witness in the Premier League on a regular basis.

Let's be honest, playing Italian teams in Europa League is an easy path to the next round. Kudos to Birmingham though...

"For the first time since European club football began in 1955, there will be no Scottish teams in contention on September 1. Wipeout."

"Shamrock Rovers are set to become the first Irish team to play a European match in December since Shelbourne in 1964. Heroic."
