Years ago. 2006/7 they beat Man U in the CL. Looking back, that was a decent result against a brilliant team. 16/17 they drew with Man City home and away in the Champions League. Not faced any since. To say they are league 1 is a bit harsh.

There are posters on here that did the laughing emoji bit when I suggested previously that the SPL was between L1 and Champ level (old firm plus one or two could mix it / survive in champ (let’s say Aberdeen, possibly (just possibly) even Hearts or Hibs). Some posters are saying L1 at best...

So long as the Old Firm keep getting 40/50000 spectators each match plus shirts / sponsorship plus Euro Football and whatever TV money, they will always be able to pay high wages attract better talent than any L1 club. Celtic have got the Eire angle too so they often get decent support and often...

Maybe 🤔 maybe he was thought of as ok and had an offer from a Champ club just relegated to L1 (which he turned down - Rotherham) and would end up in the SPL (IMO a league somewhere between L1 and Champ). In reply to your Hiwula & Baka point, I hardly think Bolton or Donny are currently much...

I think the bigger issue is if MG gets banned, the next time he gets fouled in the box then a ref is going to be less likely to award it. He’s going to have to stay on his feet even if clattered and keep going if he can.

Turned down Rotherham apparently. Just saying.

Bit of mixed bag that. Some of the “development” players has some good play, thought Ngandu showed some bits of potential quality. Senior players didn’t boss it like they should. Walker should have had a couple - good opportunities and without the pressure that first team matches have. Bright...

Fair play to you if you’re there.

I was actually going to pop down - it’s only 15 mins from my office. I’ll stick it on the big screen. It’s too cold today.

“Jordan I miss ya” in goal. “Simon we miss you” is probably more apt.

Looks like we’ve got a fixture in a week or so (12/10/21) against AFC Wulfrunians (who I admit I’ve never heard of). I don’t understand why we don’t take this cup as a bit of an opportunity and have a go and also have a bit of a jolly. It’s a great opportunity for some of the fringe players to...

Fair enough. Kevin Kyle went back to Scotland and had a couple of decent seasons and ended getting called to the National side. On that basis…..

I think the fact that McNulty can’t score as freely might suggest that it’s at least better than L2.

This aged well.

It’s a sign of how well we’ve done that a player that we once missed (McNulty) plays for a team that we now see ourselves as far superior to. Nostalgia aside, would he even get anywhere near our squad now (pre-injury obv). ?

Tell them to break into the ground and widen the goals a couple of inches one night. Can’t recall a player hitting the woodwork as much (stat gimps - there’s one for you to look at).

Never moaned, fought for his place. I guess coming into the game late made him not take things for granted. Might not have been the finished article but contributed to our rise.

To be fair I’d place them between Champ and L1 The Old firm are upper Champ at least, a couple of teams lower Champ the rest probably L1.

The Sun in Scotland state that he’d had offers from England and abroad. Anyway, good luck to the lad, hope he does well and there’s a chance he could be playing in whatever the Europa League qualifying stages are - such is the Scottish set up.

Not a bad standard, good move for him I think. Would we say that they are a better club / standard than Baka’s Bolton or Hiwula’s Doncaster? Is the SPL a better league than L1 EFL?
