ANOTHER week, another set of controversies about Scottish football. Celtic humiliated in Europe; Rangers looking hopeless and Hibs and Motherwell out, while Hearts continue to fly the flag after a decent away result. The co-efficient of Scottish teams in Europe has fallen from ninth to 19th in four years.
Broadcaster Danny Baker was overstating things, describing this as “a collapse of Scottish football”, but journalist Graham Spiers is correct to talk of “the horrifying humiliation” of Celtic and Rangers in another bleak week for the game.
