Scotland - Premier League

The official topic dedicated to the Scottish Premier League.

Did anyone else enjoy Rangers' complete collapse and handing Celtic the league?

Was slightly reminiscent of our Scudetto over Juve.

A few years ago I would have enjoyed it more but I still like Celtic so yes ;-)

It was quite amusing espescially since i'm surrounded by Rangers fans everyday!

Yep! It was nice to see!

Does anyone else think it's time Celtic and Rangers jump ship to the English leagues? I know both clubs want to, as they would generate so much more money... But for obvious reasons the Scottish FA are totally against it as Celtic and Rangers bring them so much cash! I think possibly within the next 10 years it's a definate possibility, with all this money being invested in the EPL...

It really needs to happen for the sake of the two clubs. With the money the SPL generates they cant afford decent transfers, and even if they could noone wants to play in Scotland as its such a poor league. I think the only way it would work is if most Scottish teams jumped ship though because the likes of Hearts and Aberdeen would lose dramatically to Rangers and Celtic leaving Scotland.

Yes I thoroughly enjoyed that I have never liked rangers and have always liked the green and white side since the Petrov, Larsson, Moravcik, Lambert, Agathe, Mjallby, Thompson, etc days. Go Celtic!!!!

For some reason after riomma I hate rangers most.... I have no idea why but I have always really disliked them.

It was reminiscent to some extent but offcourse the Lazio comeback was more emotional and enjoyable for me and probably all Lazio fans but it was nice to see those arrogant pricks lose out.... thank you Gordon!

Was also nice to see them squander their chance in progressing to the UCL last 16 last season after starting well.... and then to see them lose the Uefa Cup final quite deservedly (impressive how their shite football got them so far!) to Zenit was priceless

How does the new season look?? Any good transfers ....

But yes I think both Celtic and rangers will eventually jump across to the EPL within the next few years and I think it is fair. It would make it fairer for the other Scottish teams to win something as I don't know when the last time was that neither Celtic or rangers won the SPL....

Its half time in the Old Firm and its Celtic 1 rangers 1.... Come on Celtic!!!!

53'.... Celtic 1 rangers 2 Kenny Miller scored.... that guy has gone backwards and forwards through both clubs but unfortunately today is playing for the wrong side of Glasgow!

And its now 1-3

1 red card apiece each and its now 1-4 with Miller getting his 2nd goal for the dirty rangers and to top it off I do not get to watch Lazio play as no streaming available!

Finished 2-4

Very exciting climax to the league! With just 2 games left both teams are on equal points with, Celtic leading +2 on goal diffrence!

Celtic have Hibs away and Hearts home to finish.

Rangers have Aberdeen at home and finish away to Dundee utd.

Celtic are my second team, behind Lazio!

So hopefully we can go and make it 4 in a row.

Seems like nobody wants to win this damn league! Everyweek when it looks like Celtic are going to run away with it they drop points. Technically they should have had sewn up by January.

If Celtic fail to win this title it will have to go down as one of the most disastrous seasons ever because I have never seen a poorer Rangers side since I watched Scottish football some 18 years ago. Gordon Strachan is a loony, he should move back to the Championship and join McLeish. Hopefully Celtic will have a new manager soon but if they win the title I can't see Strachan leaving. Bit of a catch 22 situation really.

Come on Celtic!

I can't stand Rangers. A joke of a club.

Rangers are the Roma of Scotland, there's no denying that, dirty players, dirty fans. Glasgow would be a better place if Govan imploded on itself! Only joking....

Is it wrong that i hate Rangers more than i hate Roma? lol!

Just cant stand them! Rangers won 2-1 there now, not convincing, and not good for there goal diffrence.

If Celtic win there next to games 1-0 then Rangers will need to win by 4 goals away at Dundee utd (Not gonna happen)!

Congratulations to Rangers! First league title since 2005. Well Done!

As a Celtic fan, its very hard to take!

But by no mean's did the best team win the league. Rangers are a very poor reflection of Scotland's best (1st in the league)

For use who think this may be bias or sour grapes, Champions League 2009-10 will reflect this low quality.

Now due to the new CL qualifying regulations, its gonna be next to impossible for Celtic to Qualify for the Champions League, with 2 qualifying round's. Add to that being unseeded for the 3rd qualfying round, and if they were to get by that, they would have a 2 leg game, against a big 5 team, Arsenal, Atletico Madrid, Fiorentina, Lyon or Stuttgart.

A real shame, this.

Celtic have represented Scotland very well in the Champions League, 2 consecutive last 16 place's prior to last year, beating the likes of Man UTD and AC MIlan.

Ranger's couldn't even see of Lithuanian Champs Kaunas in there qualifying round.

Enough Said!

Nice Rangers!

A real shame. I can't stand Rangers. For some reason after Roma they top my list along with United and Real Madrid.

I have always had a soft spot for Celtic since the days of Petrov, Larsson, Moravchik, Agathe, Lambert, Lennon, Mjallby, etc. What a team that was! Celtic are one of my favourite teams without a doubt.

Rangers are in general a dirty club. Its hard to believe they won the league this season.

Congratulations Rangers!!!

I dont support the club but I know a lot of people who do so Well done to them!!!

Yours truly,.......

Celtic didn't deserve the title - period. They threw away an 8 point lead and have no one to blame but themselves and it's a shame as Glasgow will be unbearable over the summer now!

According to SkySport Gordon Strachan has left Celtic...
