JamboAberdeen Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 As we're going to play both side of OF next weeks, I wonder which side's winning league will give us more favour. Assuming Celtic will win the Cup, Rangers wining title guarantees us starting from 3rd round in Europe League if we secure 3rd, but no European spot for 4th as Motherwell will qualify as runner up. Celtic win put us in 2nd round start, though we can still qualify for Europe even if DU manages to catch us up. I'm not saying we should lay down against either of them. But we might secure 3rd next week, so Celtic game looks meaningless. And JJ has said he is happy to play weakened side once qualified for Europe, which might hand title to Celtic. What shall we do, apart from usual 'off course we should win every game'? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Debut 4 Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 Not really bothered to be honest but Celtic are getting on my nerves more these days and really hope they end up with nowt. I just want to see us finish the season well and i hope we take something off both of them in the coming games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victor Meldrew Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 In the past I would almost automatically have said Rangers. However this current Rangers team just has something about it that I really dislike. More than usual they seem to have a bunch of players who are always trying to get the other side booked, diving and generally cheating. I know Celtic are bad too, but I just feel that Rangers are worse at the moment. Having said that, if (as the OP suggests) there is an advantage to HMFC in one of them winning, I want what's best for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davemclaren Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 Don't care as long as we get third and beat both of them in the run in. I accept only the former is likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Destruction Derby Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 I would rather we played a full strength team against Celtic, hopefully getting us points in the process and them dropping points to feck them up for the league even though Europe will be confirmed next weekend. Celtic at Tynecastle ain't a game to play the youngsters IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gabriel Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 Both are close in the number of wins but Celtic have lost fewer games and scored more goals. I honestly thought they'd have won the league more easily but now think it will go to the wire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bighusref Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 Normally, I wouldn't care. However this year, this one year, one of those teams is absolutely potless, desperate for an influx of cash and investment. This investment has been on/off for months, and now hangs in the balance. If they don't get the investment AND fail to win the league, it could damage this club irreparably. Fingers and toes crossed for Whyte to say "no" and for C*lt!c to win the league.

Boab Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 If we have secured third before the hooped demons come to Tynecastle,i'm sure i would not be the only one who would be very disappointed if Hearts were not at full strength.That goes for the Dundee Utd game also.Couldn't care less who wins the league but would love nine points from our last three games.The title is irrelevent and only really affects us regarding where we start in the Europa Qualifiers.Pesonally,i'd like to go in at the 2nd Qual.A competitive couple of games would be far better than two daft friendlies.

Correct, Celtic at Tynie is probably the game I look forward to most every season, Even including the Hobos. To play a weakened team would be seriously disapointing. Especially if the mhanks have a chance of clinching the league.As for the UTD game. I would take a few youths up in the squad and have them on the bench to savour the atmosphere for the final 20 mins of the season once Europe is secured and were winning against them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudi Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 Doesn't really matter,would hate to see either of them win the league by beating us,just hope it goes right to the last day and by then we have taken a maximum 6 points of them,it's good when the OF fans say "cheers mate,you could have just won us the league by beating................." it's happened a few times over the years only for that team to fall flat on their faces by getting humped by another team.

I'm sure worse things have happened to Hearts than Celtic winning the league at Tynecastle. Maybe 86 stuck in your gullet more as it was Celtic that won. Maybe for you if it had been Rangers it might have been 'bear'able. Still gutted United didn't win today to make the end to the season more exciting?

Dalry Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 I hope Celtic lose everything. No love for Rangers at all, but a lot more hatred for Celtic which stems from a long history with them. Would love nothing more than for us to beat them at Tynecastle to stop them winning the title, especially if it was a late winner! Having said that they do deserve to win the title as they've been the better team this season but hopefully they'll blow it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

topcat Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 Generally I'd like to prefer to see a different team from the previous season win the league. That nine in a row business got really grating. This season however Celtic have been on a different planet when it comes to being irritating, so much so that they actually sparked a referee's strike and Rangers are so financially dysfunctional right now that they look like the plucky underdog of the pair so I think I'd rather see them take the flag Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudi Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 If it's all down to football and footballing reasons then celtic deserve to win the league by a mile,I've seen both halves of the OF on the box against various teams and the tims come out looking a far better more impressive team,but unfortunately it's not all about football. Sad fact is the OF are better football teams than the rest of us(okay Killie are pleasing on the eye)and looks like it will continue, unless rangers have to pay all their debts without a new owner.

Seymour M Hersh Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 If sellik win the league it means murderwell are in Europe without having to win the cup and iirc it also means the enter the competition at a later round than we would should we secure 3rd. So if I am correct with the above i'll take rankers to win the league thus making murderwell earn their place in Europe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
world_3 Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 Couldn't really care less, although Celtic have been ticking every box in the fuddery checklist this season. So maybe Rangers. Although if Rangers lose they'll be penniless next season. So maybe Celtic. Would love it in a Kevin Keegan style though if we could knock one of them right out of the title race Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Rev Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 I want Rangers to win it. The way in which Celtic, and in particular John Reid and Neil Lennon have behaved over the course of the season has been nothing short of disgusting (even by their own grubby standards), and would love to see them fail. The icing on the cake would be us turning them over at Tynecastle with an offside winner 2 minutes after the originally scheduled 5 minutes injury time.

PTBCAL Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 To me Celtic as a football team are miles ahead of Rangers - I am astonished that they have not sewn it up long before now. Wanted Rangers to win incase we needed 4th for Europe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Celtic win the league and cup then they would enter at the lowest Q round (which is 2 I believe) and if Celtic finish second but win the cup then the 4th placed team would get into Europa.
