You certainly will be in a minority, because the vast majority of Scottish football fans have at the very least an interest in the Old Firm and all the circus that surrounds it. I certainly do, without being a lover of either club, but the pantomime that the fixture brings is always worth watching especially if Celtic lose then the fallout is car crash material that you can't take your eyes off. Like it or not, love them or hate them, but the Old Firm are a big, big part of Scottish football and Scottish culture and attract alot of interest from the majority of football fans and even some folk who normally aren't football fans take an interest in the fixture. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Marly Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 I’ve got more close friends that are ****, therefore I’d rather they didn’t stop the ten. They’re unbearable as it is about being top and Saints being bottom, can’t begin to imagine them if they actually won the league. Close friends who are **** you say. How does that feel? Never allowed that to happen to me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I fail to get the appeal tbh. 2 clubs built on bigotry and hatred from a city I'm not from. Why would I be interested in that ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suspect Device Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 There is no choice I'd be comfortable with. The correct answer is that anyone but Rangers stopping Celtic getting 10IAR. I can but dream. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OSP Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 Surely the best option for anyone not a fan of either is that Celtic win it this year. Then Rangers finish 1st next season, with Celtic in 3rd behind *any other team* by 1 goal difference (which seems possible with Lennon in charge). Then Rangers go bust, points penalty drops them down and Celtic lose 10 in a row despite all that by 1 goal. No more Sevco, no more 10 in a row. Win-win? Even as a Celtic fan I find that possibility rather funny... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broomhill Ultra Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 When Rangers win their first league cup it will make George Square the night after the referendum seem calm and peaceful. The thought of what the place will be like if they were to win the title means I’d opt for them never winning anything ever. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fide Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 Owing to the fact that Rangers fans are amongst the most abhorrent, graceless heathens ever created, I'll have Celtic winning 10IAR thanks. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah - most people thinkthey're both a shower of c***s and couldn't fit a fig paper between the pair of the in terms of dislike. I mean, there are some days you might hate Rangers more than Celtic, or vice versa, because one team or other has done something particularly fucking horrible that day, but as a general thing sensible folk loathe them both equally. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Durnford Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 Do non-old firm supporter actually give a toss? Personally I'd rather Motherwell scraped it on goal difference ahead of Aberdeen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HibsFan Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 (edited) This season, I would probably (just barely) rather Celtic won it. Obviously if Motherwell/Aberdeen/Kilmarnock/Hibs (no laughing at the back) could get their finger out and stop 10IAR and prevent Rangers from winning 55, that would be the dream scenario. What I would say is this. I don't want Rangers to win a league title again, ever. However, if they're going to have to win one (and the likelihood is it'll happen again in my lifetime), then it might as well be one that causes an absolute heads gone meltdown from the Celtic contingent, leaving them stranded at 9IAR and short of the mythical ten they've been bigging up for years to keep their one-horse race interesting.
