3 and a half years ago Celtic beat Barcelona, now they are in extra time against a second division team. Scottish football is unbelivably shit now.

I could take watching penalties now. Not sure Celtic could.

Usually because they've had squads big enough to cope with any major injuries and the extra games. Leicester are going to have to try and convince more than a few players to sign over the summer because they'll have four competitions to contend with.

Rangers goalkeeper did very well not to deflect the free kick back into his own net there. And it's penalties! Quote:

Perhaps this match is the first sign of a new era of competitiveness in Scottish football. |

Agreed but double the amount of pens as any other team, not being in Europe and out of both cups early plus least amount of injuries has probably helped as well.
he gets assists too. |

I don't know what the fixture list since October has to do with it? Why October? Fixture lists are the same for all 20 teams.
Cups are won with luck. Lucky draws, last minute winners, unfair dismissal etc. Leagues are won by the best side |

My mistake actually, they didn't go out of the FA cup until late January but it's been one game a week since then when most of the other challengers have had Europe and/or domestic cups to contend with on top of the league.
The other teams have bigger squads to deal with playing in multiple competitions. |

Craig Gordon deserved that piece of luck after nearly keeping out the previous kick.
And Scott Brown has his penalty saved! This is real footballing drama. |

Scott Brown bottled a chance on ten minutes and bottles his penalty. Not exactly a captain's contribution.

I said earlier that Rangers looked like they wanted it more and perhaps that makes it a just result; Celtic just looked sluggish and disinterested other than the two spells when they equalised. Thoroughly enjoyable match, I thought. |
