As far as I can see the point that is being made is that when Celtic won the European Cup in 1967 the financial disparity between the big leagues and the rest of us didn’t exists then. Celtic’s achievement was phenomenal and should never be belittled however IF Rangers were to win it it would be done over coming a significant obstacle that wasn’t in place in 1967 (or in 72 when Rangers won the ECWC).

Malcolm Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 Fair play that Celtic beat inter in the final in 67, but they had an easy run to get there, Nantes, Zurich, Dukla…. Think even Hearts might manage that 😊 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One other very important fact. Celtic supporters were applauded in Lisbon, unlike the animals that destroyed Manchester.. Its amazing how many thick hieds you can have on a single message board.

What are foreigners got to do with it? Aren't you about to win the league title with a team made up of foreigners and a foreign manager? Wasnt Henrick Larsson recently voted your greatest ever player? yep, you definitely need a lie down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are missing the whole point. Some folk were talking about big money transfers, budgets, bringing in foreign based players, that's the norm these days, which sevco has done, the Lisbon Lions did not.. How many trophies has sevco won this year? The Lions won every competition they entered that year including the BIG one , sevco have won fuck all. So to compare their impending Europa Cup win as bigger than the Lisbon Lions is pure insulting, and utter stupidity... I am wide awake by the way. This is disturbing. To even mention that Shithole mob sevco in the same sentence with the Lisbon Lions is an embarrasment to Scotland, and planet earth as we know it...

The vast majority of teams in the 50s and 60s were made up of local people or same nationals. This wasnt because Celtic chose to do anything special or different. It was a consequence of the times. If a club won something now with 11 same nationals then it would be a huge achievement. Celtic winning the European Cup is and was huge. However they did so at a time when Scotland was a major footballing force and the vaat majority of countrys hadnt developed in a footballing sence. The list of teams they beat en route to the final shows that. I dont believe Rangers will win the Europa League however I think the point some ppl are making is that it would be a huge acheivement against the backdrop of the current footballing landscape. Same as it would have been should Celtic have won in Seville. Dumbarton won the 1st ever Scottish league. Was that a massive acheivement? Not really as there was only 12 teams competing. Them winning something now would be much greater. Surely you can see that line of thinking? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn’t make them a better team, or take anything away from Celtic’s achievement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fairbairn Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 I’ve been relatively confident during the week but the closer we get to kick off the more the doubts are creeping in. I could easily see us win 2-0 but I likewise wouldn’t be surprised if we lose by the same score line. I’d be a lot more confident with Morelos and Balogun in the team.
