Was thinking. People go on about european money and tv revenue. i'd like to see a brittish cup, battle of britian type scenario where scotlands best face england best each year possibly a mini league type format then heading into knockout phases. Keep the other competitions for smaller clubs to have more chance of silverware but if u qualify for the brittish champs league u are exempt from scottish cup. We could even have hampden n wembley for semis and final. I know i would love a battle of britain each year and the chance for scotlands clubs to play at fine stadiums and test themselves against a higher calibre of opposition. Because although we have euro football each yr we seldomly have scottish versus english these days. I think this type format could also bring in more revenue and tv money thn the cup competitions we currently have. Any thoughts guys? Could also stop teams trying to pinch our players for low fees when we outperform the big guns. On the other hand if we take a hiding it could go other way. However i believe if we had this format we could attract a better standard of player to scottish league knowing they could be putting themselve directly in the shop window for Epl Teams. Perhaps a lot of players wouldn't want to move with maybe 8 guaranteed games against epl teams each yr.

Basically old firm Vs the big six then mate? Would be a tough gig for us like! And if the sheep or Hivs etc ended up involved it would be a slaughter 🤣.

The big 6 from England would just play there 'B' teams as the fixture calendar is already too congested for them. And we'd still get beat!

No room I’m afraid brox plus no willingness even in the first instance from English teams . Their money nap is layed out. Would be brilliant for us though
. I loved the old texaco cup. Certain it would never happen again though . but good post my friend.

England doesn't need Scottish teams unfortunately.

It wouldn’t best be Scottish, ulster, welsh top teams and English championship maybe even league 1

Don’t think the EPL would even be interested.

Agreed Scottish would love it but can't see the English wanting it.

This has been suggested years ago, problem is if this was given the go-ahead FIFA would want the UK to be one representative for the world cup.
