as a very casual observer of Scotch football can someone help me understand why there is a clamour from the rubbish sides to make it into the top half of the table for when the split happens? (or is there not a clamour and its just a media thing) Its surely much better to be the best side in the bo...

To be fair, their performances do seem to have reflected a slack witted half arsery that evidently is endemic within the culture of the club.

Ali's mental and physical health concerns are well publicised. He hasn't played a game this season but he's on £100k a week. Did Ron Gourlay write up the contract? Young's 37 and on £85k a week.iys stupid money. It's all "sell x,y and z, give Branthwaite a big contract and then sign 3 more play...

Keep hearing a lot of Everton fans saying "Just sell x, y and z and we'll save £30m in wages". Err, no one's going to pay Neil Maupay anywhere near the £70,000 a week you're paying him so he's got zero incentive to go anywhere til his contract runs out next summer. They signed Deli Ali and...

The Old Firm don't play each other in the league any more times than they used to before the split was introduced. It does mean that pretty much every game from now on matters, whether it's for the title, European qualification or relegation so I'd say it's a decent enough innovation in what is othe...

Deluded as fcuk.

Jim Ratcliffe has declared that we wants to end the work from home culture that has crept into non playing staff, starting with the first team squad.

6th highest wage bill in the PL when relegated, brought in £100M from selling 3 players last summer while also receiving parachute payments on top of that, were able to keep their players on those PL wages incl Jamie Vardy being on £140,000 a week, stumbled over the line having looked like they wer...

Liam Moore and Sam Hutchison have signed pre contract agreements with Cambridge

I think it's incredible that when West Germany won the World Cup in1954, their whole league structure was amateur. It only became professional at the creation of the Bundesliga.

I remember the site going into an angst riddled meltdown after Plymouth.

In the pre Bundesliga regionalised days (pre 1963), Schalke were the biggest club in Germany.

Sutekh So are there people out there that date dead women then?

I presume it means inflatable rather than dead

Congrats to Parky with back to back promotions, who was the Banker (Despair) who said he cant man manage! Reportage, you thick goon, it was half his squad at Bradford who said it; great when things are going well but clueless when things get a little bit tricky and too eager to try to please everyo...

Good Lord, no.

You'll regret that post if they win 15-0 at Ipswich next week.

Going to have to duck for cover maybe, but I feel like I don't rate Olise as highly as everyone else. I think he could be the next Bernado Silva Needs to work a little on the defensive end but his movement, control and passing definitely seem on that path No need to duck for cover …. just take it l...

The latest theory is that Buckie Thistle would rather be a big fish in a little pond and challenging for titles rather than a small fish in a small pond so have conveniently "forgotten' to work towards the bronze licence because they don't want to be in the League.

If Brechin finished 15 points back then maybe there's an arguement for not putting anyone forward but not when they lost out on goal difference. The Brechin chairman's arguement about the Strathspey games is maybe clutching at straws but it is a shambles. I also think it's nicer to have a Highland L...
