What's the betting that Ian Cathro will be the first managerial casualty of the season.

Wonder what the betting is on who'll win the League this Season? And by how many points.

You could be right bonzo- As the spl starts next Saturday and Hearts are away to Celtic he is under severe pressure. I dont think the Hearts fans have ever taken to him for what i have been reading.

So we are off and running- prediction time .. Rangers are a bit of an unknown lot though i hope they will give Celtic a good run for the money. Aberdeen have lost two good players Ross Jack to Rangers and the excellent Jonny Hayes to Celtic so i have doubts about them for that. Hibs i see as possibly a dark horse.

1 Celtic
2 Rangers
3 Hibs
4 Aberdeen

Mystic bonzo strikes again hahaha. Think he's got some great ideas he's just not a manager. Heard the other day wolves have already been in touch with him regarding a coaching roll.

Watched the Celtic game the night, If Kyle Walker the recent recruit Man City bought from Spurs recently for 50 million. How much is Celtic's Kieran Tierney worth.

Tierney's qualities are there for all to see and is a fine young talent who will no doubt go onto bigger & better things. He will make celtic a healthy profit if he chooses to move on in the future, but he plays in the spfl, & his price will be based on that, probably £8-10 mill. You Inevitably become a high valued player playing in a top league against quality players wk in wk out. Most folk see the spfl a backwater in european football terms, with recent results backing that theory up.
Hopefully in the next few yrs this trend will change & we can bring back some of the glory days. Remember, it wasn't that long ago, the gers & celtic contested uefa cup finals.
As a side note, it's Benjamin Mendy of Man City that plays in Tierney's position, not Walker :wink:

A great result for Celtic and also Scottish football on Wed. night. About time they turned on the style away from home in the Champions League. :)

Yip, the performances and results by Scottish club's in Europe recently have left a lot to be desired -
as it's only Celtic who've managed to punch above their weight and achieve some success at times.

Unfortunately creamolafoam, even the Europa League itself is considered by many to be a bit of a backwater competition these days.
