The Scottish Football Thread

[Harry Squatter]

Jock Stein died 35 years ago today. RIP, remember watching the match then going to bed because I had school the next day and my Dad waking me up the next morning telling me what happened.

[Arnaud]

Great man, remember reading the newspaper the following morning. RIP. 

[Harry Squatter]

There's a plaque up at the new Cardiff City stadium commemorating him.

I see Stig has been engaging in a spot of vandalism in The Mystery:

Celtic now 13 points off the top - Neil Lennon could be available for the impending vacancy at Barcelona...

[Captain Turdseye]

Steven Gerrard > Neil Lennon

[3 Stacks]

Steven Gerrard > Celtic Football Club.

Wins for Celtic and Rangers on Thursday have put Scotland 11th in the UEFA co-efficient giving the chance that their champions will go directly into the CL Group stages. The only opposition left is Ukraine who are behind Scotland at present by 31.125 to 30.700 with Rangers still going, but have Shaktar and Dynamo Kiev dropping into the Europa from the CL because of third places.

Absolutely disgraceful that the Scottish champions (or any other champions) don't go straight into the Champions League.

 

UEFA should've just been honest when they started it up & called it The Money League.

Fucking hell what next the womens champions go straight through, the annual priests over 75s 5 aside challenge match winners go straight through. It cheapens us all.

40 point deduction! I'd say 20 but Celtic would still blow the fucking thing

She's only bothered because it was at Alex Salmond's house.

Made me chuckle, Roger!

Howe to Celtic has reportedly collapsed and they’re all praying it’s not Roy Keane. Ha ha ha.

[Bjornebye]

Decent bit of experience for Celtic there. Needed as well

The new Celtic manager came across really well in the interviews I've seen with him. I don't know if he knows anything about football but as a human being he seems a good egg.

A draw and two defeats in his first 3 competitive games.... Give him his due though he took a look at the squad and came right out and said that the club need to bring players in. It will be interesting to see what striker comes in because it looks like Edouard will be off (he's downed tools anyway, that display the other night in Europe was unacceptable). 

[Kevin D]

Aberdeen will be shitting it.

[Scott_M]

Given they will be of similar quality, are we having a Vanarama National League thread as well?

[Bjornebye]

Hilarious you two. Defo come as a pair.

Why do they speak in a Dutch accent?

Good goal, Rangers far far to narrow
