Ormond Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 It's always funny when your average Celtic muppet thinks his/her club are this great World show that have a gazillion fans in every corner of the globe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair to Celtic, it seems it's Dundee that are behind this idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotunited Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 This will happen within the next few years, may not be Dundee v Celtic, but a Scottish / English fixture will be played abroad. Look at the nfl - they have 8 home games a season and give to give up one to promote the game overseas (The European market), it makes sense for Football teams to do the same. American / Asian audience / tv will demand this in a few years, and I can see English Premiership clubs doing this - may not be a big game to start with - Norwich v stoke for example, as they may not have the level of backlash from fans - as Man U, liverpool etc would face.

Long time ago we evolved onto Massey Fergusons and John Deeres. We only use our horses now for posh showjumping events. Unlike our neighbours down the Carse, who still strap wee two wheel buggies to the back's of their gee gees. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I note, with the exception of Fendt, you've named two of the more expensive and up market tractor brands. You must know wealthy fermers...

If the Dons even though about trying it i'd go off my nut. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
