I had a look on a Rangers forum to see what the opinion is... Not happy <laugh>.
I mean Celtic were dead certs to win it so not like they've lost anything, Celtic were miles ahead <laugh>
Yeah, in another year (or decade really) it would have created a huge issue, but this season was just a formality.

 Scotland have ended the football season and declared Celtic as champions. They could save themselves a lot of hassle and just do that every year.

What odds on West Ham following the FC Seoul example?

 Their form was poor before lockdown anyway. They’d won three in 2020 and one of those was after ET in the cup. Lots of draws and a few hammerings. Added to that they just came off the back of weeks of not playing, minimal training and first game back being against Dortmund and it was never going to go well.
Wasnt sure who you were talking about at first, its a pretty accurate description of Newcastle!


Also, apparently Newcastle is twinned with gelsenkirchen, home of schalke.

 Looking at Frankfurt's and Schalke's performances, i cannot help but think that this is how we'll play under the new conditions.
Probably <laugh>

Tho we play in a silent stadium a lot of the time anyway, other than fans groaning - so maybe not so bad after all.
And I'm not sure what the conditions had to do with Shalke playing badly in an away match at an empty stadium? If anything a derby match away with no crazy Dortmund fans should have been a better situation than than normal circumstances.

That said. a listless performance played on the back foot does seem like what we should probably expect. <urgh>

 Watching Owen Hargreaves trying to smile is so cringe worthy.

People think I'm miserable because I dont really smile, and its for this exact reason. My smile looks so sarcastic, I feel his pain.
