English football would be well served by playing their cup semi-finals away from Wembley and London. Might bring back the 'magic' of the FA Cup Final.They have the facilities to do it. But back to Scotland . We, unlike England, are cursed with the cancerous presence of two vile secterian clubs. I have no interest in facilitating the slavering bigots who support the Old Firm to spread their bile at football matches. You clearly do. There we differ. I also want genuine neutrality for Cup semi-finals rather than always Glesga, Glesga, Glesga. You don't. You, as an Old Firm fan do not, in a football sense, understand the meaning of neutrality. You probably don't even think it's a good or desirable thing.

Then make it that Celtic & Rangers 'fans' - for it is they - singing bigoted 'Irish' hate songs is a rule breach.

It's not a league game it's a supposedly 'neutral' national cup final. The real scandal is why it's played in Glasgow at all. A totally full Tannadice would be both fairer geographically and more atmospheric than a three quarter full Hampden.....and making Hampden exclusively the venue for the final only adds to the day.

Fair dos

I'll get me own, ta.

So there is no 7th ? Well you are wrong. There is a 7th and it's beautiful and tender and precious. You, on the other hand are none of these things. You lack the imagination, wit and command of language to call other people thick. You rude little character.

Why not just draw lots in August to see which one of them wins another fatuous title.

There's no such thing as 7th place !!! I like it. It can be our USP: "Scottish Football.....where there's no such thing as 7th place" If only the SPFL could eradicate the Old Firm secterian songbook as easily.

They don't...I suspect AI is at play here.

Can't agree in this case... Going top of the league trumps securing a totally irrelevant 'top six' place.

To which the correct and obvious answer would be "a vile institution, posing as two football clubs, designed to fan the flames of tribal division and secterian hatred in order to make money from thick bigots, which has no place in Scottish society, never mind Scottish football, in the 21st century. Now what is it you two pieces of crud require clarification on ?".

You'll get a job on Sportsound with that attitude !

Meet the new Rangers, same as the old Rangers. Meet the Old Firm, same as the old Old Firm.

The term 'Old Firm' will die when we no longer have two secterian football clubs in Glasgow whose business model is predicated on carving up Scottish football for their own financial benefit. Sadly that's not happening anytime soon.
