I noticed Artur Boruc, Stephen McManus, Andreas Hinkel, Shunsuke Nakamura, Scott Brown, Marc Crosas, Aiden McGeady, and Jan Vennegoor of Hesselink were not included. You know, the actual players of Celtic. If I picked and chose through the reserve squad of any English team it would be "embarrassing" as you said, but if you think any of the 8 above mentioned players are "Championship" level, that is a pretty laughable opinion.<br /><br />I agree that Celtic and Rangers should not be in the EPL and most of your assertions about what is wrong with the SPL (though I enjoy having a 50/50 shot of my club winning a double every year). However, your sour grapes about your relegation bound club should not influence your argument. It leads to poor logic. Besides, by the looks of the Colaship table, you are hardly one to be giving any squad or their fans pelters about the quality of their club.Fake Brian Gregoryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05096505119842771402noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4234337357347181796.post-50441902353357154562009-04-24T13:21:00.000-04:002009-04-24T13:21:00.000-04:00The threat of relegation makes things more interes...The threat of relegation makes things more interesting for the clubs that can't compete with the Big Four and the other European place holders. By getting rid of promotion, the clubs in the lower tiers have nothing to play for and would go the way of most now-a-days and sadly dissolve.<br /><br />Word Verification: foup me WTF?epiblasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01219877702185417077noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4234337357347181796.post-6692828557510659912009-04-24T13:00:00.000-04:002009-04-24T13:00:00.000-04:00I do not have a problem with adding a Prem II leag...I do not have a problem with adding a Prem II league, but so long as there is promotion/relegation with the Colaship. This means adding yet another step in the English pyramid, and I'm not sure what that means financially. I think a variable salary cap based upon net income. This should balance the financial disparities rather well, while simultaneously addressing the credit problems many clubs are forced to enter in order to field a competitive team.EbullientFatalisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16502420022767098791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4234337357347181796.post-77706151576743511982009-04-24T12:47:00.000-04:002009-04-24T12:47:00.000-04:00With money they would prob buy players, but then a...With money they would prob buy players, but then again they could not and sit quite comfty with Wigan.Bigus Dickushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14887445292362822964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4234337357347181796.post-60137759336210067652009-04-24T12:38:00.000-04:002009-04-24T12:38:00.000-04:00I still say that if Rangers and Celtic had access ...I still say that if Rangers and Celtic had access to EPL money, they would be formidable.
