    Massively over rated imo.
    Might have an intense atmosphere but the football quality is piss poor whenever I have watched it.

    Massively overrated?

    Please elaborate.

    You already say it has an intense atmosphere. That alone is a plus that the majority of football clubs can not and will never enjoy.

    Piss poor football? I'll just assume you're knob.

    Scottish football is piss poor imo. And as quality of football is piss poor in the SPL it feeds into the poor quality of football in the Glasgow derby.

    Much of the intense atmosphere is historically sectarian poison...and it has often spilled out into hatred...doesn't make for an enjoyable experience to me.

    As for your view of me...wind your neck in mate. You asked a question and I answered. If you don't want answers you don't like then maybe you shouldn't ask the question

    I want answers. It isn't for you to decide what I think is acceptable. You have twice said 'scottish football piss poor imo'. Compared to what? Elaborate.

    Who said I didn't want answers?

    I wouldn't mind a decent reply if that's what you actually mean.

    Still can't answer honestly? Why?

    Sunday league pub team 2-1 Barcelona.
    Sunday league pub team 1-0 Man Utd
    Sunday league pub team 4-3 Juventus

    These are just some results in recent times. There are many more.

    Again I ask you to elaborate. Can you?

    How many Scottish teams have made it to the CL group stages?
    How many Scottish teams have made it to the UEFA/Europa League group stages?
    How many Scottish teams have made it to the CL final 16?
    How many Scottish teams have made it to the CL quarter finals? Or semi finals?
    How about the last 32 in the UEFA/ EL cups? Or the last 16? Or semi finals? Or final?

    Scotland used to produce scores of fantastic footballers...would do well in European competitions and produced a decent national team.

    In the last 2 decades or so that has not been the case. And imo (which I said in my first post) this is because the quality of Scottish football is piss poor.

    The atmosphere in the Glasgow derby is intense but largely sectarian and the quality of the football is piss poor...fine not to agree mate but chill the **** out...it's just an opinion.

    A 2 team league that became a 1 team league, there's a long way to go before the SPL become interesting again.Rangers back in the top league is at least the start of that.

    Both Celtic and Rangers have made a European final in recent times. Celtic '03 and Rangers '08. You can look up the teams that where beat along the way.

    I don't understand your assertion of 'piss poor' football. You obviously do not watch it.

    Domestically you can only beat what is put in front of you. The results acheived, in spite of limitations, are incredible.
