    Like the Premiership needs these two! And it would seem that that rangers forgot that Sky actually dropped the Scottish Premiership becuase viewing figures were so low.


    Alex McLeish believes pressure from television could force English football's power brokers to allow the Old Firm to play in the Premiership.
    McLeish says Rangers and Celtic should both be playing in England.

    He says that television bosses can pave the way if they threaten to withdraw cash unless they are allowed south.

    "Global television could dictate an immediate change of direction if they were to threaten to withdraw financial support," said the Rangers boss.

    "Rangers and Celtic are still a tremendous attraction to Europe's top players.

    "When we bring the big names to Glasgow and they see Ibrox and Murray Park they can hardly believe their eyes," added McLeish.

    "But the questionable strength of the domestic league is what prevents the very best of them from opting to take the gamble on a move to Scotland. That is the weakness of the Scottish Premier League.

    But he believes the Premiership would have no choice other than to allow Rangers and Celtic in if satellite television threatened to pull the plug on millions of pounds unless they were granted entry.
