In fairness, on this seasons evidence, we (and much of the league) are better than Celtic.
Blackpool could probably give them a game. I have no love lost for the SPL, the most overrated league I can think of.
Yeah, that’s what I was going to say. If we played Celtic over two legs I’d be reasonably confident…
Celtic are playing Melbourne Victory – and I am pretty confident of Melbourne victory winning. Fulham would win over 2 legs easily at the moment
Wot? Even without Kevin Muscat’s delicate skills and creative finesse :-)
Well based on salaries, we should be better than Celtic and they should be better than Stoke: http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/news/story?id=6354899
Not only that average wage… but take a look at the list rich posted last week. Fulham’s wage bill for the season was 49 million total.
I don’t have the numbers for 2010-11, but this http://celtictalk.org/celtic-finances-posted/ seems to indicate Celtic’s was a little over 36 million for last season, which was actually a 1.5 million decrease from the season before.
So it’s not just average pay, but total pay. Premiership TV and prize money goes a long way.
