: Moyes wants Old Firm in England
:
: The Goodison Park chief, Scottish himself
: and a former Celtic player, sees many
: virtues in the two-tier Premier League that
: is reportedly set to be proposed to the
: football authorities south of the border.
:
: And Moyes has no doubts the Glasgow giants
: would be a major boost to the English game,
: saying: "I'd like to see a two-tier
: Premier League because I am Scotsman; it
: would be great for everybody to see Celtic
: and Rangers initially in a Premier League
: Two."
:
: He added: "I'm sure they would very
: quickly move into Premier League One. I feel
: it would be of great benefit for everybody.
:
: "TV would be interested, the media
: would be interested and, undoubtedly, the
: support and crowds would increase at every
: ground in the country.
:
: "Both Celtic and Rangers have as big a
: support than any team in England. From that
: point of view, it would help the game in
: England if we needed a boost in revenue.
:
: "Maybe if crowds have dropped a little,
: or the TV revenue drops, this would be a way
: to address that situation.
:
: "It would have a detrimental effect on
: the game in Scotland, but if there was the
: chance for the rest of the Scottish teams to
: maybe be in a play-off with an English team
: to Premier League Two, something like that
: would be workable.
:
: "I would rather this than an Atlantic
: league, or some other European league. We
: have Welsh teams playing in English football
: so why not Scottish?
:
: "The Scottish teams are really, really
: big clubs and I feel it would be good for
: everyone."
