Comments on: 3 reasons why Celtic not only have to win, but will win tonight! http://www.insideleft.net/archives/2710 the corinthian {scottish} football blog Thu, 18 Aug 2011 16:02:57 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3 By: seb@insideleft.net http://www.insideleft.net/archives/2710/comment-page-1#comment-574 seb@insideleft.net Wed, 19 Aug 2009 11:50:45 +0000 http://www.insideleft.net/?p=2710#comment-574 Hi Karun, I was wondering when you'd be back :-). I'll be honest, I didn't see the game, so I can't comment on the goals etc, but the result is probably not that much of a surprise. As for Scottish football, yes, it's not in great shape - financially or even sportingly. Our national side is not doing too well and our club sides have been disappointing for a long time in Europe. There's a lot that needs to be changed, and a lot of money is needed. It's easy to be down on Scottish football, to criticize it and make it out as a crap league, but at the same time, while my team (aberdeen) is playing, while there's a competition to play for, I can live without the star players, or the money or the advertising - as long as the team exists, i'm happy. This article was an attempt at being upbeat and positive, not just about Celtic, for whom I care little, but also about Scotland and Scottish football in general, for which I care a great deal more. I've added you to the links page, under 'Others'.. you're amongst other Arsenal sites! Hi Karun, I was wondering when you’d be back :-).
