    Henry you're a journalist....you should know why there were no fans .. rangers couldn't stomach the celtic fans celebrating as much at their home ...so cut the allocation...it became unsafe so no tickets were taken .. we'll see if it improves

    Celtic fans in the corner area at Ibrox were subjected to constant volleys of beer cans, half bottles of Buckfast, and plastic cups half full of piss. The Celtic goalkeeper Joe Hart was also subjected to shards of broken glass inside his penalty box. In the last league game at Ibrox, a crackerjack Rangers fan tossed an empty half bottle of Buckfast at Mat O,Riley after he scored his penalty. Can you imagine this type of behavior if it happened at Anfield, Old Trafford, the Etihad stadium, or the City ground.

    My first old firm game I attended was at Celtic park Tommy Burns was Celtic manager with the likes of Dicanio,van hoodink,caddette,Walter Smith was Rangers manager they had HazaGoram,Laudrup,we were trying to stop them doing 9 in a row,what an occasion,what an atmosphere,both teams missed a penalty,the outcome wasn't so good as rangers won but id never experienced anything like what happened that night,the second old firm I attended was the now infamous 6_2 game at Celtic park,what can I say,that left me breathless,Larsson's chip over Stefan kloss head from big Chris Sutton's lay off was probably the best goal I've watched live given the size of occasion,these games really are special! #hail #hail

    Gentrifying all seater stadiums have ruined the brand in England. That and an elite group of clubs who know each season they are going to be up there. The interest and excitement came from knowing Chelsea, Spurs, Man Utd, City could all be relegated. The excitement now truly comes from the EFL. The Championship is so competitive and amazing. The Leagues below including the National League are where’re the interest is at. The Prem League is more for a TV audience

    As an Englishman who has attended an Ibrox Old Firm game, at the time when there were masses of Celtic fans allowed in, I can confirm that the crowd is deafening and the atmosphere hostile. Unfortunately however it has been many years since the standard of football was anything above lower end of the English Championship level.

    The two clubs have been to three European finals in the last 20 years. No team from the championship would be capable of that. I understand the rest of the teams in our league aren't great but Celtic especially is already mid table prem. Results against man utd and man city in the champions league prove that.

    @@callumgarylogan4939 Man City won it last year and Man Utd should not have qualified above Liverpool and then there is Chelsea, both of whom have won the Champions League within the last decade or so, Spurs who made the final a few years ago or Arsenal who are past finalists. But the Champions League is a cup competition and shocks can happen. I'm old enough to have watched Walsall beat Man Utd in the FA Cup so Celtic or Rangers rising to beat a Premier league club once in a while seems to prove very little. Scotland has not had a team to seriously challenge the EPL giants probably since Rangers beat Leeds in the European Cup in 1992/3. I'm not sure any of the current Rangers or Celtic teams have a player that would interest the top half of the EPL. Postecoglou has not exactly been rushing back to cherry pick the rich talent at Celtic. And If there is then no doubt they will be travelling South in the Summer.....but probably to the championship.

    Hurray, an English journalist admits what has been true since time in memorial. The Old Firm are the UK's biggest clubs. Have a glance at the records for attendances to begin with. Largest European attendance: Celtic v Leeds, European Cup semi-final, 1970, nearly 140,000 for a night match. Never be beaten. Largest European home crowd: Rangers, 118,000. Never be beaten. Rangers hold the records for some of the lower leagues too. Largest ever cup final in Europe attendance again Celtic this time against Aberdeen and again over 130,000. Never be beaten. Both clubs also have had huge supporters clubs all over the world for decades a lot longer than the English ones that have sprouted after Sky television began to cover the Premier League. The Republic of Ireland as a nation is virtually a Celtic supporters club and in the North of Ireland both teams enjoy large support. I know, I know, you are thinking sectarianism but yes that does raise its ugly head but it cannot be denied that both clubs are popular on the island of Ireland. If both clubs were ever asked to join the Premier League it would not take long for them to challenge the leaders and my God if that happened and one of them was pumped money by an outside group of billionaires they would challenge in Europe too.
