Moyes wants Old Firm in England
Everton boss David Moyes wants to see the Old Firm playing in the Barclays Premier League.[LNB] 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.[LNB] 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."[LNB] He added: "I'm sure they would very quickly move into Premier League One. I feel it would be of great benefit for everybody.[LNB] "TV would be interested, the media would be interested and, undoubtedly, the support and crowds would increase at every ground in the country.[LNB] "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.[LNB] "Maybe if crowds have dropped a little, or the TV revenue drops, this would be a way to address that situation.[LNB] "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.[LNB] "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? [LNB] "The Scottish teams are really, really big clubs and I feel it would be good for everyone."
