    I think mid table would be a struggle for them as their squads stand at the moment.

    Lower mid table then. They would stay up.

    Most players in the prime wont go to play in Scotland because of the lack of good teams there. I remember a French player (cant think of his name) turning down Rangers saying i would only play in 4 decent games a season against Celtic.

    Would have to agree with Rayden, they would struggle because they would have to go out and graft each week.

    Don't forget though, that they'd both have an awful lot more money available to them than they have currently in the SPL. But yeah, doubt they'd be much of a challenge, certainly not for the first year or so.

    They would probably both have a really good home record but I could not see them challenging for any European places or anything imo.

    think they'd struggle for the first couple of years,but with the tv money that would be available in england they would become a force!.but when this was spoke of before the premiership said that if they came to england that they wouldnt take place's in europe no matter their finish in the lge or if they win the cup's. the money from european football would be badly missed, plus trying to attract players would be harder with no european football imo.

    bhoywonder. lennon has brought celtic forward!!! look at the farse of last season. he's totally rebuilt the squad!!! and some great signings...kayal,izzy,hooper,stokes,ledly...to name a few.yes mistakes were made but he's a young manager and things are going the right way!! WE WILL BE CHAMPIONS NEXT SEASON I HAVE NO DOUBT!!!

    give them the same access to the money that clubs in the premiership earn and they would become a force, i have no doubt. but if they had to play a season with the squad they have now, probably hang on....just. first thing they need is a new manager
    see you next tuesday
