Just seen it on sky sports news that Celtic are in talks to play in league 1 next year. I don't think they should be allowed to makes all the effort of getting promoted a joke, that's if we go up... http://m.skysports.com/article/football//7467095 |

They have been talking about it for fucking years, certainly since the late 90's, UEFA and FIFA will never sanction it.

Source is the People...so doubt there's much substance in it. Though agree with the wider point that if Celtic want to join the English leagues they should start at the bottom like everyone else.

The BSP could be a higher level than Rangers play next season.
This could be a nail in the coffin for the Scottish premier league and in general the Scottish leagues.

To be honest, it's no less absurd to see Celtic playing in England than Swansea or Cardiff.

The only route into League One I can see for them is to buy Franchise off of Winkleman and replace them.

The MK Celtic Dons Bhoys has a certain ring to it.

But what about the hordes of hairy-arsed jocks on the piss every other weekend in sunny England?
Even Eric may struggle with them!

Well said, otherwise it takes the piss out of clubs like AFC Wimbledon, Burton, Oxford etc who have had to fight their way out the pub leagues. To me this would be no different morally than Franchise. |

But it is though, Swansea and Cardiff have always played in the English leagues, they havent ever played in the league in their own country. Both teams have played in the English leagues for nearly 100 years and not as in Celtic only want to play in our league because their league is so weak in comparison and see it purely as a money making exercise. |

Celtic should not be allowed to do this. It's ironic that at a time that the Scottish government was independance, Celtic wants to join the English league. The reason the Scottish league is a joke is because Celtic and Rangers have enjoyed having the bigger share of TV money, and now, after Rangers has virtually gone to the wall trying to fight each other for the title every year, they want the English money.
They can get stuffed as far as I am concerned.
