"The Scottish Premier League will explore the creation of a British League Cup if plans for a major shake-up of the game are ratified." http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/scotland/13116378.stm
Yes. If it replaced the Carling Cup then yes. Makes it a bit more interesting rather than just a 2nd rate FA cup. Include the Welsh teams too for maximum destruction over them all haha. The sight of any English team destroying Celtic or Rangers in a competitive game is simply immense!
And the results from the British LC are in, and are as follows: Manchester United 19-0 Bala Town Chelsea 22-0 Clyde .......... etc .........
If Rangers or Celtic (or both) were in the premiership, they'd probably get relegated, or finish around about 13th downwards. Rangers bought David Healy for money!
Well considering Celtic have 2 useless ex-sunderland strikers in Stokes and Murphy who wouldn't come close to our squad now even though we only have 1 fit striker. Then you look at the SPL XI otherwise known as Middlesbrough rotting away in the Championship. Yeah I fancy my chances.
If they won't scrap the Carling Cup altogether they should definitely consider this. I'd like to see it. Good idea.
SPL XI? Considering Boyd got dropped every big game for Rangers, McDonald scored when he played but was never really fancied by Mowbray, Barry Robson never really played for Celtic and there aren't much, if any, other Old Firm players in their team, I'd say calling them the SPL XI is not very accurate, if at all.
it could be like the setanta cup here lol norn iron teams against republic teams and we all sing to linfield yer irish and ye know ye are great craic
Willo Flood, Stephen McManus, Kevin Thompson, Zemmamma? Theres a few to add to the list and I'm probably forgetting some...
