That’s them fucked. A defeat at weekend in the old firm, and that’s Martin gone I’d say.

What'd be the point - depending on his severence package??
Shows where Scottish football is currently - I "watch" a few games in my local on Sunday's before other games, it's League One at best.
There was a clamour over the years to get the Glasgow teams in the PL because of their support - it'd be embarrassing now
Scottish PL over by Xmas leaving Celtic to have a run at the Europa - which they might win as it's a poor sub for what it was a couple of seasons back
 
5 before the break. If they score early in the second, then they’ll not take their foot off the pedal. This could beat the 7 they shipped to Liverpool.
 
Laughable that those who push the agenda for the old firm to be admitted to English football (which will never happen) say they should go straight into the Premier League. They're bottom half of the Championship standard, at best.

I just looked at Ranger's starting 11. If they were in the English Championship they would be one of the relegation favourites. In the 90's they had the likes of Gascoigne, De Boer, Caniggia, Butcher, Van Bronckhorst, and Gattuso play for them. The Celtic team that reached the UEFA Cup final in 2003, which lost narrowly to Mourinho's Porto, knocked out a decent Blackburn team, and beat Liverpool 2-0 at Anfield on route to the final. It's a pretty big fall.

Ffs.. We qualified in the top 8 of the Europa League last season and that’s with by far the hardest draw!

It’s the EPL manager that we’ve brought in that has destroyed the team.

I wouldn't be boasting about the Europa League. It's a shite competition, moreso since there are no CL drop outs in it after the league stage has finished. The final last season was between teams who finished 15th and 17th in their domestic league. That says it all.

No team outwith the top 5 leagues has won it in over a decade. That says plenty

The closest team to breaking that run was????

As for not surviving in the EPL. Aarons and Djiga are EPL players and two of the worst defenders I’ve seen at Ibrox!! Embarrassing

Why would a Scottish club be playing in that league anyway?

You think because the two players you mentioned played in the Premier League, that gives them some sort of credibility? I hate to break it to you, but there's a lot of shite players in the PL. And not all of them at clubs at the bottom. As for your form in Europe; I think you'll acknowledge that I've commented several times the oddity of you being decent-ish in Europe while being shite at home.



Not tonight, obviously.

We’ve been punching way above our weight in Europe for years. The list of teams we’ve beaten is ridiculous

This tonight is the worst I’ve seen and I’ve seen us lose in the lower leagues of Scottish football!!

I don’t buy into the fickle hysterical nonsense of the FF mob BUT this isn’t a one off. I’m not sure he can survive this run of performances.

Good luck to Brugge. I’m sure they’ll give a few of the top teams a run for their money and a welcome addition to the group stages.
