I still use it. TBH haven't really thought about it that much.
I'd agree with this. It's just a way of describing the game when we're playing each other. Doesn't mean anything other than that. What's the difference between "The old firm game" and "the Glasgow derby"?It's an odd thing to get annoyed about.
No one is suggesting that by using 'Old Firm' we are somehow associated with Celtic - it's simply a term used to denote a match between the two biggest and most successful teams in Scotland.
There are numerous derbies across the world which similarly use a collective term to describe their derby.
Yeah, but they have no problem when it comes to raising the prices when the only show in town rolls up.I think the club still refer to it as such.
The bheasts only refer to it as a glasgow derby in their official media to appease their hordes.
