A British Cup would be great PR for us and bringing Britain together. That's why it'll be rejected out of hand by both football authorities up here, and especially the Scottish media.
it's a half way approach. Rangers need out of Scotland, to get away from the corruptionTo be honest it's a cracking idea.
Arbroath’s record wouldn’t last 90 minutes.Man City v St Mirren or Liverpool v Ross County would be must watch television in England...
Or is it just the 2 Scottish clubs?
Let's make this happen!Im sure a load of mentally challengeds singing IRA songs would be great for British togetherness.Every firm in the land would be queing up to smash them silly
exactly,let them embarras themselves with the english media win winIm sure a load of mentally challengeds singing IRA songs would be great for British togetherness.Every firm in the land would be queing up to smash them silly
He forgot about that the day he signed for the beasts.Celtic and Rangers , Davie has clearly forgotten his upbringing.
I wouldn’t completely do away with the league cup but I would like to see some sort of Britain wide competition introduced.
Can’t see the English being bothered about it though. They hardly care about their own cup as it is.
Maybe there would be an appetite for a battle of Britain style Cup Winner’s Cup.
Scottish Cup Winner v FA Cup Winner at the start of the season.
Im pretty sure they would get a tanning at most places.The average football LAD is a patriotic man.I can't see them allowing a load of peed up IRA cheerleaders to sing ditties abusing them ,their country and their Monarch.Let's make this happen!
I’m the same would love like a British cup that would involve England Scotland wales and northern Irish teams. Top 2 teams from each country qualifies each year and have an open draw
Totally agree mate.Im pretty sure they would get a tanning at most places.The average football LAD is a patriotic man.I can't see them allowing a load of peed up IRA cheerleaders to sing ditties abusing them ,their country and their Monarch.
The idea is a good one but I cant see past a load of trouble with the Glitter brigade.Rangers would have a love in at a fair few places.A British Cup would be great PR for us and bringing Britain together.

So its a goer then!;-).The last time they were down St Andrews they had a torrid day!Totally agree mate.

Former Celtic player Moyes said: “Folk might shoot it down but I think the opportunity to introduce the Scottish teams would give it a chance.
“Maybe one of the TV companies — if you’re calling it the British Cup — might be a bit more interested and it might bring in a bit more money.
“I don’t think that down here the clubs like Celtic and Rangers are given enough credit for the size of their football clubs
“I would argue there are only maybe two clubs in England bigger than either of them.
“We’ve just come out of one of the worst periods of Brexit. Why can we not actually bring Britain together and have a British Cup instead of a League Cup?
“I think what you might do is bring bigger crowds, certainly from Scotland.”
The English clubs play there reserves for the English cup can you imagine what level they would play for this no thanksFormer Celtic player Moyes said: “Folk might shoot it down but I think the opportunity to introduce the Scottish teams would give it a chance.

it does, but only if the winners haven't qualified for Europe via FA cup or champions league spot. They scrapped runners-up of FA cup qualifying for Europa league if FA cup winners already qualified for champions league.Does the English league cup not provide a Europa league spot for the winners ??
If so then I can't see the middle of the table type teams in England voting for scrapping it.
To be honest it's a cracking idea.
