STAY WHERE YOU ARE

Sir Alex Ferguson has said Celtic and Rangers will never join a British league.

"Over the years there has been talk of British leagues," reflected Ferguson.

"If the barometer of how successful Rangers and Celtic would be is the friendly games they play, they would probably do very well.

"But the situation is not as simple as that, and in any case the situation is all hypothetical because I do not think it will ever happen. It is too difficult a move."

Yet Strap-on doesn't think the Premier League is all it's cracked up to be.

“Believe me, I've seen some dire games in England. You keep giving yourselves too many pats on the back, saying you have the best league in the world.

“I know our league is not the same as the Premiership, but there is not that much difference.

“And if this Celtic side was in the Premiership we would be competitive in the top half of the table.”
