Say what you want about them but considering they are in a tinpot league Rangers and Celtic are much bigger clubs than Cardiff and even Weeds.

two big fish in a very small pond , in a city the size of glasgow .

its like having arsenal and spurs as the only clubs in london , their attendances would go through the roof

the difference is up in scotland there is a lack of competition up there because of the size of the clubs, based on attendances and where most of the urban conurbations live and are situated.

in england we have far more clubs on a similiar level but we have far more major cities as the population is more evenly spread out .

the scottish league is boring due to lack of competiton , the english league is boring due the obscene amounts of money the top clubs now receive and the introduction of the premier league and sky tv .

we had the fa cup semi final draw yesterday , four out of the top five clubs in the premier league are still involved and some people still pretend that the premier league is not a closed shop. the romance of the fa cup died years along with a more competitive and evenly spread premier league . until that changes the majority of fans of other clubs in both england and scotland will have to suffer the continuous domination and borefest of the same few clubs ruling the roost.

no , i am not , but the vast majority support celtic or rangers , its sectarian up there always as been catholic or protestant

there are ten clubs in london , but attendance wise , only arsenal , spurs ,chelsea , and maybe west ham at a push really matter, the rest of them are making the numbers up.

Dont matter they are still bigger than most uk clubs which isn't bad considering the league they are in.

Dont matter they are still bigger than most uk clubs which isn't bad considering the league they are in.

they are big clubs attendance wise but that is hardly surprising as there is no competition up there: , but apart from that they are nowhere near the the top 5 or 6 in this country especially when it comes down to the honours board :, thats unless you count the scottish cup and league as major trophies

not to mention european competition where celtic are usually coming home before the champions league group stages are over and they are the current creme de la creme of scotland
