I prefer the SPL, and St Mirren. There's too much money centred on too few teams in UK football and it's having a negative effect on quality, especially of players available for the national teams (especially Scotland). It frustrates me that so many people support teams they have no local connection with,e.g. I have heard that a huge proportion of Man U fans have never been to Manchester. I am quite rare in being born in Glasgow and not supporting either Celtic or Rangers. We moved nearer Paisley (less than 10 miles from Glasgow) when I was a small boy then I chose to support my local team.

Yes I believe capitalism is killing our game. With VAR I think that's another whole can of worms.
