On the basis of the last two weekends, just behind Dean Brill.

Does it involve changing any rules to the benefit of Der Hun? If not, that would explain the deafening silence from the footballing authorities.

Unfortunately you could replace 'collum' with the name of any Scottish ref and make the same statement. It would be better with a random decision maker - at least that would be more consistent.

Wasn't Tansey's 'foul' om Paton too? Had Collum been consistent, Paton should have been off for his assault on Billy, and then neither tackle would have needed to have been made.

It's Scottish Football. That's not likely.

Lost for words DV?

When Celtic played Dundee United in cup final (1988, I think) anyone buying a ticket was asked "which end do you want?". Anyone responding "oh, have you got some tickets for the Celtic end?" went away disappointed!

Harsh

Val Doonican? Didn't he merge with Roger Whittaker?

To be even fairer, I was sound asleep after reading dougals post.

It is stopping my mate from getting a ticket before Monday. I did the friendly thing and suggested that he could always come with me, but for some reason he was reluctant...

Yes, but they don't go on general sale til Monday. The less patient (and I guess by definition, less loyal) of the woolly masses may decide to take a shortcut. Likely they won't see the game at all then if they do this as will be horsed out by security if they make it obvious. Simple to spot too. They will be the ones who haven't bought a program, been to the refreshment stand, and indeed have their pockets stitched up!

Oh, the irony...

Thanks to Champions League Final, the Scottish Cup final is now played on a Sunday. Presumably to allow Celtic to compete in both.

Excellent work by all involved!

Heard it's a done deal. They are changing their name to Council of Upper Northern Territory of Scotland and paying us to have their acronym emblazoned across our shirts.

Hibs are the only bottom 6 team who can catch us. If we beat them next week we only need 1 more point, or them not to win any game to guarantee top 6. Given Hibs form since judas and iscariot jumped ship, I will be very disappointed if we don't finish above them.

The only thing about that song is I thought it was a dundee utd song long before we started singing it? Or did they nick it from ict? Airdrie were singing it in the early 90s

I am sure you will find that oranges are not the only fruit.

FTFY

Don't worry, you won't be able to see the flag at the final for that pole obstructing your view.

I have no problem with that. What I do have a problem with is constantly being treated by like the idiot child of Scottish football, who is clearly some kind of embarassment. Maybe if they stopped falling over each other to help Der Hun long enough to actually think things through, we might get to a sensible solution, but I don't hold much hope.

And when was the last time any of the powers that be in Scotland gave this impression?

In theory, you can start a long as you have seven players, and one of the players is a goalkeeper, and add players as they turn up. Whether SPFL rules allow this is another matter. I suspect that they would take a dim view of this, and if they don't already have a rule, rapidly invent one to deal with it. We could always mitigate this by playing in green and white hoops.
