To be honest the SPL is one of the most boring teams around, no offense. I enjoy watching the od firm derbies but no one else as no one else is a contest for the title.

I believe Cardiff would come 1st at least come 2nd or 3rd in your league.

Not being a WUM trust me ok

I agree but you can say that about any league, including England.

It is not just the SPL that only has a couple of teams who can win the league, mostly every league in europe is like that.

But fans from teams in English leagues seem to think its just the SPL?


How many teams were challenging for the EPL last season? Or La Liga? Or Serie A?

I agree, Cardiff would beat majority if not all the SPL clubs. As would Wrexham.smiley

And i dont think Cardiff would do as well as you think, you forget that players who failed at Rangers are some of your star players ok

I dont see Cardiff reaching any Uefa Cup finals or last 16 of the champs league either.

You forgot that some of your ex players have done well, Mcormack is now worth £6 milliomn pounds and premiership quality, Steven thompson is now in the premiership and our goalkeeping FLOP neil alexander is playing for Rangers now.

So what's your point?

They have done well in the championship. That is all.

They failed in the SPL.


And as for Alexander, he is the reserve Goalkeeper doh

we actually beat Celtic last season in the algarve cup preseason tournament 1-0 joe ledley goal.

And we are facing them again in 2 weeks when they 'officially' open our new stadium after it is opened by the first minister of wales rhodri morgan.

How fans of Scottish football can mock any other league is truly beyond me. Scottish football is a joke!

Before you start mocking my team fact is we and every other Engish league side would be guaranteed a 3rd place finish.

On the flip side if Rangers and Celtic were in the English Premier league they would be relegation candidates or mid table at absolute best.
