Default Can Rangers and Celtic hack in in England (Holiday Game)

Hi,

This is a short experiment aimed at seeing whether the big 2 from Scotland Rangers and Celtic can survive in the English leagues.

There has been talk for a while regarding their chances of winning the premiership, however English league rules state you have to work your way up, therefore the 2 teams have been placed in the Conference North (Rangers) and South (Celtic). I could have put them lower, but wanted to keep track of league positions straight away.

I will update after every season, providing as many screenshots as possible, I will also run the Scottish leagues (Carnoustie and Tayport), have been added to Scottish League 3 (with the other divisions being filled on reputation)

Other leagues being run are :

France
Germany
Holland
Italy
Portugal
Spain

I can provide some screenshots from these where possible.

On with the first season.

NB I have had to run a number of seasons because of work commitments I am now in 2019, so I will do yearly updates (I won’t look ahead) to see how they progress.

David

Season 08/09

The League Two title was not as close as the National, with 4 points separating the teams. This time however Rangers came out on top.

http://s129.photobucket.com/albums/p238/dwgr/scotland/?...rent=23league209.jpg

The league games ended

http://s129.photobucket.com/albums/p238/dwgr/scotland/?...t=24celticaway09.jpg


The Johnstones Paint Trophy replaced the FA Trophy as the cup both teams should have a chance of winning. But surprisingly Rangers reached only the second round, and Celtic fell in the first.

http://s129.photobucket.com/albums/p238/dwgr/scotland/?...urrent=25paint09.jpg

The FA Cup saw the reams meet in the second round, with Celtic progressing 2 - 1
http://s129.photobucket.com/albums/p238/dwgr/scotland/?...urrent=27facup09.jpg

Although they were then knocked out themselves in the 3rd round.

The League Cup saw the best run, with Rangers reaching the Semi Final
http://s129.photobucket.com/albums/p238/dwgr/scotland/?...rrent=26lgecup09.jpg


The English Premiership was won by Arsenal
http://s129.photobucket.com/albums/p238/dwgr/scotland/?...urrent=28engprem.jpg


The Scottish Premiership by Partick Thistle (not really sure how realistic this is, anyone care to comment)

http://s129.photobucket.com/albums/p238/dwgr/scotland/?...ent=22scotprem09.jpg

Tayport improved from bottom (10th) to 8th whilst Carnoustie grabbed a play off promotion. (I may start following these with more interest)

A Comment

Is the reputation of the clubs already falling off, apart from the League Cup neither side managed a cup run, losing relatively early on in all competitions.
