I'd say the rivalry between Celtic and Rangers (the old firm, for anyone who doesn't know) is much bigger than Milan and Inter. The Milan derby is well mannered most of the time, but the Old firm is bitter as fuck. Ranger are best team in Scotland historically, but Celtic have won the European Cup once in 1967. Hail, Hail! I'm saying no more, because I'll upset Rangers fans. ![]() |

rangers and celtic is one of the biggest rivalries on the planet and both have huge supports in scotland - within glasgow its split basically with different areas being mostly rangers or mostly celtic. the rivalry is so intense because of mainly one thing - sectarianism which no other country to my knowledge has dividing football. the same can be said for hearts and hibs. hibs were founded by irish catholics who came over from ireland during the 1850 potatoe famine the same people then moved west and founded celtic another irish catholic team. on the other hand rangers and celtic are both protestant clubs for reasons im not sure of, maybe because their greatest rivals have catholic origins. rangers and celtic have controlled scottish football since the late 1980s when aberdeen and dundee utd were dominating. as a hibs fan this pains me to say it but with the emergence of hearts over the last two seasons comes a real challenge to their dominance on scottish football. rangers and celtic have a huge worldwide fanbase and have two of the biggest fan bases in britain. sectarianism is an ugly thing and people can be killed over it. it resembles a dark cloud for scotland and something that must be stamped out. you may have heard of the trouble rangers got into over the sectarian chants when facing villareal in the champs league last season and thankfully uefa are starting to take some action. celtic were european champions in 1967 beating inter. rangers were cup winners cup champions in 1972(?) beating dinamo moscow. aberdeen were cup winners cup champions in 1986(?) beating real madrid. Hibernian were the first british team in europe in 1956 reaching the semi final of the european cup. i hope this helps rex and if you want more information on scottish football just ask.

The old firm im afraid are an embarresment to Scotland with all the baggage that comes with them.Generally rivalry is a good thing but not in their case. You should think about a trip to Milan from Prestwick-it can be very cheap!You can even come with us the next time we head over! |

Where can I find the scottish PL rules ? You know... rules about the foreigners, work-permits, how many teams play in the european competitions etc.
