Following the proposal down south, Gordon Strachan is all in favour of the Old Firm game being played in Australia with Walter Smith seemingly in agreement. Can’t say I agree, the Old Firm is an electric atmosphere, even when watched on TV and I reckon taking that element away takes something from the fixture.
Again, the big draw is money. If there was no financial insentive then the idea wouldn’t even be entertained by either side. For once, I agree with a Celtic player – Jan of Big Bloody Name – that it should stay put.

Love or hate Scottish football, nobody can deny that the Old Firm game has global appeal. Doubtless you’ll try though.

In other words, you can’t deny it so you’re finding another reason to have a dig?

Huge strides against Bigotry have been taken. Bigoted or Polictical Songs are banned from both grounds.
You’re honestly saying that 60,000 people go to Home Games because they’re “bigots” when they cant even sing one word of any bigoted song. You’re talking sh/it.
Maybe what you say was true 25 years ago, but not now.
