Yip, well on their way to over 100 points and goals each. What a time to be alive. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA Baracus Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 It's alright lads, Premiership are getting £500k each. That'll sort things out, even when it's immediately swallowed by VAR costs. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dons_1988 Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 (edited) 13-0 aggregate OF vs the diddies this weekend so far. A combined GD of 31 between 2 teams after 5 games. What a league, what entertainment. Nothing wrong with this whatsoever. Edited August 28, 2022 by Dons_1988 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HailHailHayley Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 (edited) It's so lazy to group us together as the OF, Celtic are in a different stratosphere to sevco right now. Ange has us playing amazing football, a standard that the league has not seen in a long time. If you're a football fan, try actually appreciating it. United were total pish, but some of the goals today were world class. Edited August 28, 2022 by HailHailHayley -5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly and depressingly predictable. Might not be 9-0 capitulations every week, but 4 and 5 goal scuddings at the hands of those two are going to be regular occurrences this season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Celtic team who hammered us 2 weeks ago was the best I’ve seen in many years. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'The Old Firm' is the collective nickname for Rangers & Celtic coined over a century ago as a satirical comment on the way they both operate in tandem to carve up Scottish football in their own interests. As true today as it was back then which is why the name sticks. The term has nothing to do with the relative footballing merits of the two teams. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

accies1874 Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 I wonder if there are OF fans out there that actually see it… I can understand how it must be fun having your football team win almost every single weekend, especially if they've got a good side like this one and the Rodgers one. It's miserable for the rest of us and when this is what Sky and the BBC choose to promote, it paints a really dreadful picture of Scottish football. I don't think they care about why results like this happen and that maybe their own club isn't actually the most perfect thing in the world, which is understandable because that's what fans are like however their 'Stop Being Poor' shtick is, of course, ridiculous. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah I struggle with this. Winning 5-0 yesterday was great for us but if I’d gone into the game expecting it and expecting that every week? Nah. That’s shite. We walked our premier sports group and whilst it was satisfying after how miserable we were last season, it was hardly thrilling. I’m not going to derive that much pleasure from pumping Stirling Albion. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suppose that's where we differ as the Betfred is the highlight of my season...I'd imagine for OF fans their Saturdays will be chilled out watching some good football. It's obviously hard for me and most on this forum to say as we're predominantly fans of diddies and Scotland, but I can see how it'd be pleasurable - just in a different way. I've enjoyed watching Accies' youth teams in recent years which isn't thrilling but it's good fun seeing some of the best young players in the country play football in a low stakes environment. It's completely different from what happens on a Saturday but it's still enjoyable. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Despite the banter on the match thread it was never something any of us really thought was a realistic scoreline But the crux of it is if it wasn't enjoyable watching Celtic or the product was shit then we wouldn't sell out our season ticket allocations or have a significant waiting list for a season ticket, no one is paying £600+ a year for something they don't enjoy. But if you are telling me the games are more enjoyable and provide better entertainment in games that don't feature Celtic or Rangers then i guess the obvious question to ask is why are the stadiums not full?

In the world of the blind the one eyed man is king. It seems OF fans can't even find one such man! You might find it hard to fill your stadium in a corrupt league that you have no chance of winning. Where officials are too scared to give correct decisions to any other team. A league where you will struggle to follow your team on TV or radio in any games they aren't playing an arse cheek. In those games you can follow your team losing heavily. These are real stadium fillers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fucksake jinky, just accept that some people find your clubs domestic success utterly hollow and meaningless, and that will never change. You get to enjoy your big wins and champions league and have the media say how great your team are, so just enjoy it pal. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
