Celtic and Rangers handed new path to Premier League breakaway with madcap 100,000 stadium plan

Graeme Souness reckons Celtic and Rangers should come together and build a 100k capacity stadium for a crack at the Premier League.

It's a bold call by the former Ibrox boss who has been left dismayed by the performances of his ex-club and the Hoops in this year's Champions League. Both will finish bottom of their groups with Rangers in a shootout with Viktoria Plzen to avoid becoming this season's worst club.

Moving to England has been one of the most tedious debates surrounding the Glasgow pair but Souness reckons both would benefit from the tiches of the EPL, but to do so, they'll need to share a home and leave Ibrox plus Celtic Park.

It is a disappointment for Scottish football but people ask me why they are uncompetitive.
