FFS, Kazakhstan again :lol: (I didn't even know that Astana is in Kazakhstan). What a coincidence after this "weird" discussion about Scotland and Kazakhstan in another thread 2 weeks ago.

Celtic being outplayed and not creating much, but have got the breakthrough, with a good goal through Rogic.

Championship-standard Sinclair makes it 2 - 0 in the CL. ;)

Sinclair again makes it 3 - 0 in controversial circumstances where the ref let play run on when there was a head clash in the buildup.

4 - 0 through Forrest, and Fudgie has got them back into the CL once again.

They may be a bunch of sectarian sods, but you gotta say they make the best atmosphere out of all the big clubs in Britain surely.

Easily, but beating the rest of Britain in terms of atmosphere isn't particularly difficult.

No but the gdp of Scotland dwarfs that of Kazakhstan.

Relevance?

Of course, this Celtic side wouldn't get a single point in the EPL, would they?

Comparing Scottish to Kazakh football is a significantly more appropriate comparison than comparing Scottish football to English football - who would be foolish enough to disagree with that?

On the contrary, I think this Celtic side would get at least 2 points. Against Man City.

The Scots do have a massive advantage over their supposed equals the Kazakhstanis, though, in that they can travel south, sample the wonderful coaching and footballing education of the English game, fail miserably, and then return home with a wealth of new information, techniques and talents to disseminate through the Scottish game. It's almost like having a cheat code.

You mustn't forget the wonderful advantage you have in being neighbours to the English and I think that should be at the forefront of your mind next time you google "list of countries by population" and compare it to the FIFA world rankings.

Would they match Derbys 16 points?

Tough one.

I know some people thought they would lose every single game.

Are you away the Kazakh league is rated higher than those in Serbia, Slovenia, Hungary and Slovakia?

It is far ahead of ROI.

So this data driven, unbiased calculation stacks up a bit higher than your unverified league structure from 25 years ago.

Incidentally, Kazakhstan is a nation rich in natural gas with plenty of rich oligarchs to fund football teams - it certainly isn't the Borat backwater this site seems to think its is.

A truly risible attempt at trolling.

With Bernand Manning levels of subtlety.

If Celtic qualify for the group stages of the Champions League, every other SPFL club will get £250k.

One Celtic fan on Reddit described his club's actions in the competition as...
