stumigoo Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 In terms of Scottish football it has to be Celtic. Maybe they get a little bit of variety when playing in Europe (and getting pumped) but in domestic competition nothing comes close to what I imagine how boring it must be to follow Celtic.

qos_75 Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 I am sure up until a few years ago Rochdale had gone something like 20 years without a promotion or relegation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tongue_tied_danny Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 They've been up and down quite a bit to be fair. I can't ever remember Montrose being out the 3rd since I started watching us, we've been in the 2nd to the 1st to the 2nd to the 3rd to the 2nd to the 3rd to the 2nd nearly to 1st again then to the 3rd and now trying to get back up. In all that time I think Montrose have been stuck in the same league, obviously they've had the 1 relegation battle but it must be pretty boring supporting them. You're not wrong. We were promoted in 1995, relegated in 1996 and have been stuck in the basement ever since. We've only been in the playoffs once and that was the year both Arbroath and Stranraer were promoted alongside champions East Fife due to Gretna going bust. Decent cup runs have been few and far between. The only one I can think of was in 09/10 when we faced Hibs in the 5th round. There's been far too many defeats to non-league sides and uninspiring trips to Clyde. Yip, it's fair the say that the last 20 years have been utter pish and it's no real wonder that the club has pretty much lost the support of the town. The 20 years before that were pretty good though, with a few promotions, relegations and cup heroics. The way things are going I wouldn't be surprised if we never see that again...

1320Lichtie Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 "Who is the most boring club in football to support" "Tottenham" :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: Yet you said Tottenham, traditionally a club that signs exciting players and has a reputation for playing good football. I took it back straight away. State Marshmallo is getting himself into. Ffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1320Lichtie Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 Still finishing mid table? 2008 since being promoted they finished 12th. Lowest has been 14th and highest 9th within that time. Like I said. It's boring. I'm sure Stoke supporters will most definitely think otherwise, the last 10 years have been superb for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1320Lichtie Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 Mid table team. The chairman and everyone knows that's them reached there peak. Like I said that's been them for 8 years. Just a team nobody gives a toss about. They make up the numbers of the league Again you could say the same with so many other sides. I don't know how you could call them boring, an awful shout, not as awful as Tottenham to be fair but still absolutely terrible. To clarify we are on about how boring it is for the clubs fans aren't we...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayia Napa Daz Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 Would agree with the fella that said Celtic. A relatively big club in the grand scheme of things, with a budget millions of times bigger than anyone else in the same country. If they don't win the treble it's a failure, and they never do. Even winning the league has no excitement because beating teams like Aberdeen and Hearts with f**k all budget means little. The only big occasions for Celtic are European games and even then they're getting pumped out by Molde or whatever their name was. Not much to get properly excited about if you're a Celtic supporter, it seems pretty dull. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl Cort's Hamstring Posted December 31, 2015 Author Share Posted December 31, 2015 I think Rochdale and Montrose are the clear leaders here. To clarify, this is about how boring it would be to support them, not whether you think a club are boring. Stoke clearly don't count, they've been in a Cup Final, played in Europe and have one of the most exciting attacks in the country. All of which would have been unimaginable 10 years ago.

YassinMoutaouakil Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 Motherwell? Usually nowhere near the relegation battle or the European spots In the last five years we've finished 6th-3rd-2nd-2nd-11th. The Year we were 6th we reached the Scottish Cup final and the League Cup semis. We've qualified for Europe 6 times in the last 8 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CM. Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 RaithWon the Challenge cup, made the Scottish cup semis and had a promotion battle with Dunfermline that went down to the wire all in recent years. Also Scottish cup wins at Pittodrie, Ibrox and to a lesser extent Easter Road in recent years too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atfccfc Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 Oldham Athletic seemed to have been in the 3rd tier of English football for about 20 odd years. Also can't remember them doing anything of note in the cups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmothecat Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 Kilmarnock always strike me as a boring side to support. A large stadium that always seems a bit soulless doesn't help, but they never seem to be involved in the race for European spots, and usually don't seem to get into proper relegation dogfights.
