Hi Ed's

I was reading on the European pages about a possible European breakaway league happening within the next 10 years.

What would this mean for the future of Celtic FC. Would we be a part of this league or would our future lie in a sort of united British league?

{Ed007's Note - We would probably be involved in any future second tier to the breakaway league but we wouldn't be part of the initial breakaway, and there's no plans for any British league.}

Any preference for what you would like to happen ed?

{Ed007's Note - Honestly, Kev I wish they would all just pi$$ off and get on with it and leave the rest of us to get on with it. And unless it was only a midweek league we were joining I'd hunt them and tell them to stick it. I would never support any plan for Celtic to leave Scottish football, it's one of those be careful what you wish for situations for me.}

Lawwell said as much. I seem to remember this cropping up a few years ago due to big clubs, us Ajax, Porto etc not getting a bigger slice of the CL pie. Did they not try to call UEFA's bluff and threaten to form their own league?

Something has to change, basing it on viewing figures is laughable.

{Ed007's Note - It's all to do with the top clubs from 'The Big Five' leagues England, Spain, France, Italy and Germany wanting more money and control of their own TV rights and advertising revenue.}

ED It's a bleedin disgrace that the Champions of country that is a member does not go straight in. You now have the situation where, in some countries, finishing FOURTH is as good as winning the league.

{Ed007's Note - And we were lucky to get them to keep the Champions Route, these clubs don't care about us, they don't care if we're in the CL or not with their condescending pish about how Celtic Park's a great arena etc.}

Spot on Ed Celtic are a Scottish team that should always play in a Scottish not a European or God forbid a British league. As long as teams who are not domestic champions can participate and potentially win the Champions League it will remain the farce it is. I watched Liverpool fans watch the Champions League final in Santa Ponsa and I’ve heard more noise in the chapel what a soulless league and fan base which if you removed the sky money from would die on its arse. The Real Madrid fans were videoing the Celtic fans singing their hearts out for 90 minutes while asking the Liverpool fans ‘Whits the goalie daen Tam’ and pissin themselves laughing much to the amusement of the Real Madrid fans. And was Stevie G string no half getting it tight. They are as much interest to me as Kenny Dalglish’s knighthood.

{Ed007's Note - If we ever leave Scottish football and aren't regularly winning trophies the stands will end up full of tourists and the prawn sandwich brigade and we'd become just another plastic club with money being the only thing we can brag about.}

After a couple of seasons in a british league with the tv money on offer we would be challenging for the title.
