Why does.anyone but Celtic or Rangers bother north of the border

looking in from an outside perspective then financial disparity and tv broadcasting rights from Sky sports are the biggest problem as they only want the lucrative Old Firm fixtures thus creating such a a crazy format for other teams to chase after.

as for any positives, the SPL serves as an excellent proving ground for emerging youthful talent with clubs routinely acquiring young players for low transfer fees to then develop before selling them on at a substantial profit.
though in purchasing an established prestigious SPL club costing a fraction of a PL club does evaluate less capital for more realistic ROI potential through potential brand growth and possible gateways into direct qualification or playoff routes for lucrative UEFA comps including Champions League, so potential to dabble for the brave.

my son considered offers in SPL for limited first team experience which may appeal to young European players who often can find it easier to secure regular, competitive first team experience in Scotland compared to the more conveyor belt academies route of France, Germany, Austria, Spain, Italy, Holland and Belgium, so it does have merits as a league.

as for those shocking scenes on the pitch in Glasgow and surrounding area it really does show how football attracts such diverse personalities amongst its followers with a small element needing to feel part of anything that releases a vast range of emotions to satisfy at any cost, some of course totally unacceptable being shown in and around Celtics stadium via the use of mobile phones glorifying mob rule behaviours which ultimately does sadly reflect upon the problems within todays society in general.

just hoping that this forum survives without the antics of ridiculous outbursts that have become all to common when discussing all our valued opinions of LUFC whatever they maybe - maybe my age showing but felt the need to say it.

Imagine if Leeds fans invaded the pitch before the game was over?
