    Great achievement for Ross County who were in the Highland league around 1993/94, plus they were losing finalists to Dundee Utd in the Scottish Cup final in 2010.

    :lol: In the Highlands somewhere. They play their home games at Victoria Park in Dingwall. The capacity of their ground is around 6,300.

    It will be Ross County's first appearance in the SPL since it was formed in '98. They have played in the First Division back in 2008/09.

    Well, it feels that way now, I suppose. It will be the weekend again soon- the system needs a thorough renewal, I wouldn't be surprised if the teams are totally jaded by the time EURO 2012 starts.

    I'd like to see how [​IMG] County perform in the SPL. Do you reckon they'll get smashed, Jimmeh?

    Here's what an English league constituted of the clubs with comparable attendance figures to 2013s SPL would look like.

    Arsenal
    Liverpool
    Bristol City
    Peterborough
    Barnsley
    Oxford
    Bournmouth
    Brentford
    Northampton
    AFC Wimbledon
    Cheltenham
    Kidderminster

    Except Liverpool will probably be liquidated before next season.

    I like the simple way we do the prem predos league, but I do like the idea of having bonus points for predicting the correct score.

    Nothing can be done. When you were a kid and you met somebody who didn't support Celtic and Rangers you'd ask 'are they a Celtic team or a Rangers team' :lol: Hibs, Dundee United & Albion Rovers were understood to be 'Celtic teams' every other to be 'Rangers teams'. Except Aberdeen who are farmers.

    As a size of club? TBH, I'd say no, in authentic terms (aka ignoring people from Korea and shit)
