It won't last, look at West Ham. Rangers are still a shambles.

The diference simply is rangers are a club with international status and expectation. west ham, are, with respect, a london team which will always struggle in the 4 team premiership.

Living in Manchester for the last 16 years I've watched more football than you can imagine. The Premiership is an over-rated league down to Murdoch money. It's good to watch sometimes, there are some cracking games... but it's not much better than the SPL when you consider England is ten times the size.
Not one person that has replied to you is wrong in any sense. The SPL is that bad that Celtic have royally humped every English side sent to them in competitions over the last 4 years. (United on away goals)
One thing you forget as well. Both Celtic and Rangers have fan bases that destroy all bar perhaps 2 clubs in England and both clubs are in the annual turnover top 10 almost every year. Only Man United can touch Celtic and Rangers in that respect and boy oh boy if you're not a Man U fan does that not bleed you sore?
English football is good, Scottish football is good and it's improving. You're banal diatribe in just one of the increasingly tiresome view that the jocks can't play. Fact is, most are ignorant of the Scottish game and think it must be true cos yer pal Tarquin who spent a week in Troon once said so.
The superiority complex is rather unfounded and it would appear your rear end has been defenestrated.

I think the real question you have asked - why did the team not play like this agaisnt Dundee Utd before? - should be posed to the players. Those are the same guys who also failed to show any guts against Dunfermline last week. Maybe we are all just pulling in the same direction at last. Whatever. At least we are winning.

Obajan for prime minister! true to the bone.

On todays game, it is a great start for WS. we have really struggled in the past against Dundee Utd. and even when mcleish was in charge we didnt beat them in the league that well.

The players seem to have responded to enthuisiasm and showed it on the pitch today. It was refreshing to see.

You dont need good players to win games just a good focussed team, but with the poor spirit under PLG we werent going to win anything, in spite of who was on the pitch.

Well done the gers and may it continue...

Anyone who thinks Celtic could survive in the Premiership is probably wrong. I think they would only be the standard of Wolves. Dont come and say, 'we beat Man.Utd 1-0'. So did Wolves when they were in the Prem!!! You got owned by United in that game and were very lucky to win.

it gets boring saying this..but if celtic were in the premiership they would be operating on another level financially..and they would compete with the big boys...evn man utd (who we DID beat,,and liverpool who we have not lost to in our last 4 games against them..and blackburn etc etc..)
