That's the point, you are allowed to say "who cares", but don't be surprised if people take issue with what you say. That's what a forum is for.

In my honest opinion IKEA products are generally of inferior quality to other furniture products. They are cheap and nasty, pass themselves off as a premier outlet when they are anything but and I wouldn't even have one of their bins in my house. Not even if it were gifted to us.

I went there once. Once. At the behest of my wife and sister. Never again. Ever. If IKEA ever sponsor the Albion I will have a real dilemma on my hands. Follow West Bromwich Albion or Scottish fitba. I sincerely hope it's a choice I will never have  to make.

Those are my onions........... so there.

I know what you mean mate, but I think that the build and design and price do have a place in a lot of people's houses especially if sympathetically placed with more familiar named quality furniture/items.
It's a bit like buying an expensive suit and wearing a primary t shirt underneath it can look great

Very funny Dan  I mean genuinely,
Don't worry 59 your not missing much, have you been round the Hawthorns? It's inspiring
I wonder do they have tours around the training ground in Walsall?
I remember back in the day at spring Road how times have change, do you remember the little flip up seats at the Hawthorns?
Even after all these years from the mid 60's until now when you walk up to and into the ground up the steps then you see the pitch especially a night match it still takes my breath away, it's awsome

The seasons first Old Firm derby saw Celtic score 4 without reply against Rangers and open a five point gap at the top of the division after just 6 games being played in the Scottish Premier League

It's fascinating looking at the Scottish league tables at the moment. It never really felt like the Scottish leagues changed all that much when I was younger. Gretna, Peterhead and Elgin joined and Clydebank went bust but it was usually the same names.

The success of the English non league playoffs however seems to have had a knock on effect north of the border. Since bringing in promotion and relegation, gone have Brechin City, East Stirling, Cowdenbeath, Berwick Rangers and Gretna, now all in the Scottish non league.

In their place, Bonnyrigg Rose and Annan Athletic sit in the 2nd division, Kelty Hearts and Edinburgh City are now division 1 clubs, while Cove Rangers are 1 promotion away from facing Celtic and Rangers in the SPL.

Makes you wonder why they didn't introduce promotion sooner.

Best passage of play I've seen from up there in ages. And people say entertainment's being coached out of the game. Might move up north and get me a season ticket. Or I might not.

And it ended 3-3. Only watched from the 80th minute. Although you can't fault the commitment the technical abilities of both sets of players left a lot to be desired.

I saw it from about 40 mins onward. Pretty good watch that! I hope Liverpool and Man U can emulate that and their FA Cup match a few weeks ago

Whatever happens with the title, I know two things.

1/ Brendan Rodgers should never have gone back to Celtic. This season's relative struggles won't have done anything for his reputation.

2/ It's nowhere near the standard it used to be, when Celtic had players like Larsson, Sutton, etc, and Rangers had a similar strength squad. And I can confidently say it will get worse, and the idea of them joining the English pyramid will be floated again.

And Rangers lose 3-2 to a Ross County side with with two former Baggies academy players. George Harmon (LB) got on the score sheet while there was also a start for former Liverpool poachee Yan Dhanda in midfield.
