Yes. You are alone. :greengrin
Nope mate, i'm with you! I hate the love-in that alot of people have with the English Premiership! Its so over rated its unreal! I support Scottish football, because im from Scotland!
I dont even think our league is as bad as alot of folk make it out to be! Sure we may be going though a bad spell at the moment, but i dont think its half as bad as some make out! Theres been some cracking games last season and the seasons before! Keep in mind we live in a country which has a population of just over 5 Million, compaired to Englands 55 odd million. We do quite well IMO!
Mon the Scottish fitbaw! :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:
Being fast doesn't mean it's any good. I'd pick the Premiership game over the Scottish game every time except when Hibs are involved in the Scottish game. Even then, if you've ever watched a Hibs game on Setanta and flicked over to Sky to check the score in the English game the difference in quality and atmosphere is like night and day. I must admit I've sometimes given up on the Hibs game and stuck with the English match.
I Prefer to watch scottish football its alot more exciting IMO.:thumbsup:
The premiership has better football but watching it you always feel like you're watching a bunch of whores running about for a bunch of plastics transmitted to via the sky propaganda machine.
"SUPERDDOOPERCALIFRAGALISTIC SWOLLEN SMASHING SUNDAY" where liverpool and chelsea play out yet another nil nil draw...
The big 4 in particular are tarts who sell themselves at any opportunity for a quick buck.
Scottish football might be rank, but at least it's not divorced from reality. **** the premiership, they are welcome to it.
Scottish game for me every time.
Not fussed about the plastic, progressively soulless EPL, or the starf***ers from outwith england who get all moist about it. It all just serves to demean out own game.
Suppose there will be plenty who would rather watch EPL than SPL, but how you could consider yourself a Hibs fan when you'd rather watch another match when there is a Hibs game on (no matter how bad) is beyond me.:dunno:
hm, depends how good a game it was... i watched aston villa v hull city last year and it was possibly one of the worst games i have ever seen. although i watched liverpool v chelsea at the end of last season and it was proably the best! there isnt too may outstading games in the spl to be honest!
actually i'd say spl coz i'm scottish n obv prefer it but there is some crackers in the premiership.
the scottish game almost every time:agree: watched a total of TWO EPL games on setanta the whole of last season(relegation games at the end) :agree:
RIP setanta UK :boo hoo::boo hoo::boo hoo:
with you to an extent, I do like the premiership and enjoy match of the day on a saturday night, but I would always watch the SPL if picking between two live games. in scotland we talk up the EPL and talk down the SPL, some responsibility for this lies with the people on the inside, ie players/managers etc and the fact that they would all jump ship to England at the first opportunity.
If it was a choice between watching Man U v Arsenal, or Hibs v anyone; I'd pick the Hibs game every time. If it was Man U V Arsenal or the OF derby, I'd watch the EPL game.
If it was something like Wigan v Fulham, or Dundee Utd v St Mirren, I'd probably not bother with either.
See though, thats the problem right there. If people would have a better attitude and watch more Scottish football, our league would generate more money, and teams would benefit from it, and then we would all be able to bring in better quality players.
Just as someone said earlier though, we're good at putting things down in this country, its in alot of Scottish peoples blood to do so.
Moan moan moan :yawn:
Depends whos playing. Hibs first and foremost, then Man U, then if there is something good/entertaining/important on.
I would rather watch Chelsea v Arsenal over Rangers v Celtic.
Rather watch Everton v Aston Villa over Hearts v Aberdeen
Prefer Middlesborough v West Brom v Hamilton v St Mirren
if you catch my drift. The games down south don't interest me more than SPL games, but would prefer to watch slightly better quality players.
TBH, I can't think of many SPL games ive ever watched all the way through that don't involve Hibs.
I would watch the SPL game unless it involved the OF against someone other than Hibs, when I'd read a book.
Depends who was playing.
Scottish game, i wouldnt have much interest in footie if DUFC went out of business and probabaly wouldnt watch any football except Scotland games
EPL doesnt interest me, for a start most of the time the games are rank, its unbelievably overrated, they are paying a lot of average players big bucks, dont understand the fascination, infact people who have english teams i feel a bit embarrassed for but each to their own. :wink:
