Nobody's talking it up but, to read some comments on here, your typical SPL team would struggle in the Championship which is frankly bollocks.

No it isn't - most the Celtic squad came from the Championship. We were beaten by Hearts in a non competitive friendly, you can hardly call that 'ripping us a new one'.

Agreed it was a friendly, but didn't Dundee Utd come to the KC and beat us convincingly too? You can say they're meaningless games that you can't read anything into but in the absence of any counter evidence from the yah-boo-sucks brigade I'd say it gives a decent impression of the relative standards. Celtic also have an excellent record of beating top English teams in European competition too. In fact, I don't think Leeds, Liverpool or Man U have got the better of them.
 
You are living in the past. You sound like a Leeds fan.

Would you like to shift the goalposts again or shall I wait till you make your mind up what argument you wish to have?

Take your face for a ****,you ****ing Jedi. Meet us at Hadrians wall,and we'll fight like men. And then we really must,rape and pillage.

Well rape anyway...

I was at the Hearts game, it was the usual pre-season stroll, it bore absolutely no resemblance to a league performance. You might as well say that the Northern Counties East League is on a par with the Championship, because Winterton Rangers once beat us in a pre-season.

all came from the championship <laugh>

samaras 8 goals in 55 for man city.... <laugh>

and mulgrew,brown etc from paultry spl teams <ok>

Anthony Stokes came from Hibs. I don't believe they are a Championship side.

So you were able to name 6 players who came from the Championship and were wrong about one of those... That must mean you think "most" of the Celtic squad constitutes 11 players.

Is that correct?

That's a fair point, Anthony Stokes couldn't cut it in the Championship, that's why he went to the SPL.

Next.
 
Two tries and still no answer... You keep on trying though. Well done<ok>

Ah bugger, sorry I forgot, you're not used to anyone rolling over for you and you always get your own way. See if you can find someone intelligent that lives nearby to read you the response I gave, and maybe they'll explain how that is an answer, just not the one you want to hear. They might need to shout so you can hear over the laalaalaas you'll no doubt be doing with your fingers in your ears.

They do get a lot of game time. But the assertion was that most of the Celtic squad came from the championship.

This is of course bollocks. Correct?
 
The SPL board on here is an exact replica of the SPL, there's only one club involved...
