    The Burnley dude the other day was a prime example of the kind of ****** English football is riddled with. "The SPL is ****e, I've never seen it but feel fully competent to share my entirely invalid opinion on it"

    At least it's mostly sectarian bams we have to deal with, different kind of ****** really.

    These Norwich fans seem to forget they were plugging away in the doldrums of lower league football a few years ago and still have players from League 1 doing alright in the Premiership. Short memories.

    just because the epl spends the most money in transfers doesnt make it the best league... bundesliga is far better and la liga is more entertaining!

    the bottom half of that league is pure ****in ****.

    It seems that not only does the money make the entire fabric of their game crass but that the fans of any club promoted to the EPL instantly become arrogant and blinkered.

    The likes of Norwich & Southampton acting like big clubs. Unreal.

    If you beat Barcelona without Hooper then you wouldn't miss him now against Juventus. Anyway, you haven't answered my question - which English league do you think Celtic would play in?

    The SPL is a diddy league. I know it, you know it, 99% of SPL fans know it.

    But no matter what league Celtic play in; SPL or Champions. We're a big club.

    Most of these English teams play in a big league but are and always shall be complete diddy teams

    Okay, for the sake of argument: given that we qualified for the last 16 of the CL (something which evaded Man City and Chelsea) by beating the likes of Barcelona and home and away wins against Spartak Moscow I reckon we'd be comfortably middle of the EPL.

    And that's with the miniscule resources we have available to us. I cannot (and I suspect no one can) predict what would happen if we were granted access to English football. As I said, it's a pretty pointless argument because there are too many unknown factors.

    Outside Chelsea, Man City, Spurs, Liverpool, Man U and Arsenal, the EPL is full of diddy clubs.. Stoke, Norwich, Southampton, Wigan <doh>

    I work out of Norwich quite a bit because of offshore.

    Glasgow is a ****hole but it's better than Norwich.

    Plus Hooper has played in the Championship already. Can't see why he'd want to go back there.

    Aye, sometimes I see a pod of Norfolk locals swimming off the side of the platform when I'm working down there.

    They sing an enchanting sea shanty and the offshore boys throw scraps of bacon rolls and the crumbs out of custard cream packets into the water and watch them feed.

    Majestic.

    And to watch them hunt is a real treat. They work as a team to confuse their prey with ****e stories about the Broads and Bernard Matthews basically using attrition and inbreeding to confound and consume. <ok>

    No sure about him JR (I'm going to imagine you as a big Texan **** from now on)

    Surprised that C.Brown dropped J.Brown in the first place. He seemed better than Clangers from what I saw of him.

    Dons on TV three times in a week as well, longest week of my life I bet.

    Naw, more like a young Bobby Ewen with a girlfrind like ( Palm ).
    Aye Jason Brown was def a better keeper than Langfield, should've been #1 after clangers mistake against celtic first
    game of the season.

    was about to say keep watching the Dandies but St Johnstone just scored. :emoticon-0101-sadsm

    Any rumours? Apparently we've turned down a 3rd bid for Hooper from Norwich.


    EDIT: Apparently Norwich have made a 4th bid.
