    what do you make of it?
    imo theyre not good enough to play...imo the reason they get reasonably successful in europe is because of the big crowds and the confidence they get from beating most of the ther teams in the SPL...
    and if they did go to the PL then the SPL would be really bad without them and people could lose interest...

    Should not happen at all, for a start they are Scottish and should play in the Scottish league. Secondly, putting them straight into the Premier League would mean 2 other clubs get religated/don't get promoted who deserve to be there. Thirdly, why should they get to go straight into the top tier? Everyone should start from the bottom and work their way up.

    Cake, and grief counseling, will be available at the conclusion of the test

    years ago when they forst mentioned celtic and rangers being in the PL i said they cant let teams from different countries ply ther but then i saw cardiff, welsh team who are eligible to play, but also you couldnt put celtic and gers int he lower league cos it would cost them dearly...

    I'd make incorporating a Union Jack in their crest a prerequisite for Celtic if they're so eager to play in an English league.

    Celtic and rangers will never be in the english premier league the smaller clubs would be squeezed out.

    This debate has already happened numerous times on the forum, it won't be reignited unless and until there is clear movement towards such an unlikely proposition actually happening.
