2 Premier Leagues

[Rod Paradise]

I would hate to have Rangers and Celtic in the Premierleague. What's the point of bringing in two teams from Scotland so they can finish mid-table every year?

Its a pointless argument, but i'd imagine mid-table would be the top end of their focus, look at the squads of the Premier Leagues bottom 6, as good as if not better than Celtic/Rangers...

To start off with, but they would improve year on year. They are both big clubs with big supports, in time they maybe able to challenge the top 4.

You could say that with 10 other teams though, do Celtic and Rangers have £80-£100 Million to throw at improving their squad?  Thats a genuine question btw, I dont know myself...

I'm looking over their squads know as we speak, their bottom half Prem squads without additions...

 

You ignoring the posts above?

What about relegation?  How would that work?

if you finish bottom of the league, you get relegated.

To where?

Finish bottom of PL1 > PL2
Finish Bottom of PL2 > Champoinship
Finish Bottom of Champoinship > League 1

The Divisions name are just for example, who knows what the champoinship would be called then

Finish bottom of PL1 > PL2
Finish Bottom of PL2 > Champoinship
Finish Bottom of Champoinship > League 1

I have a little more confidence than that Dave, I reckon Celtic will stay in the Championship for a season or two.

Aside from the current situation moneywise and the extra to be gained from tv etc when joining up do you think guys who have loads of money and want to buy into the pl would rather have Man city, Newcastle etc or one of the old firm ?

If i had the money to buy a club, i would certainly look at the old firm first, regular income, massive passionate fan bases who would buy the shit from our players arses if we packaged it in green&white hooped boxes/blue boxes... no chance of ever getting relegated, European footy EVERY year AND an outside chance of one day being part of the premier league.

Now, who shall i buy, Celtic or Rangers

Wee clue - one up for sale (large debt to be taken into account) one not for sale.

Celtic may not be on the market but if an oil rich guy with more money than he can count makes a way over the top offer then i'd bet they'd sell up. They won't do it whilst they are in the spl as there is far less excitement/kudos for that kind of cash.

I don't think Desmond, Eddie Jordan & the other Coolmore Mafia are in it for the quick buck - if a ridiculous offer came in while high in EPL1, then aye I think you're right.
