I wonder what goes through the minds of the winning side. Do you go for records and rack up goals, or take it easy on the opposition after a while?

 

All I know is that if I'm a defender who rarely gets on the scoresheet, or a striker with a chance at a 4+ goal haul, I'm not passing the chance up.

ref and assistant have a 5 minute chat about a little bit of handbags, end up sending a man off from celtic and dundee, except it's the wrong man for the latter. utterly pathetic refereeing. every fücking day this is happening now.

One of the newly appointed directors of the Rangers board is in big trouble after it emerged that he tweeted a religiously offensive cartoon he had drawn to Anjem Choudry, in the wake of the Charlie Hebdo massacre.

I have just seen what he tweeted and spat coffee.

It is a cartoon of "Mo" giving a hand job to Jar Jar Binks.

I mean, what the actual flip? [Cue memes up here of "How wude!" "Wesa are da Billy Boys" etc] :D

Is there anything that club touches that doesn't instantly turn to faeces??

According to the BBC, the Currant Buns have this evening appointed Stuart McCall as the new manager.

Ah... "Square ball" McCall.

They will still struggle to go up this year.

Great.

:D

Hibs are bloody boss that's why Fin. Really good group of players Stubbs has knitted together there and adding Fraser Fyvie is scandalous, he's too good for that level. Would really fancy them to have a crack at the top 6 in the SPL if they went up, as it stands they'll probably finish second, bomb out in the play-offs to Rangers despite dicking them numerous times already this season, and lose anybody with anything about them. Shame because it's probably the most positive Hibs side since Collins.

 

Really fancy a jaunt up to see them while they've got this lot together, 60 quid return with a railcard and about 15 quid a ticket with a stint in Edinburgh thrown in.

Cummings has had a fantastic season. Probably overtaken Handling in the promise stakes. Funny really as they robbed him off the jambos, he's a tynecastle boy.

Think Scott Allan will wind up back down here pretty sharpish though. Can see him going in the summer if they don't go up and if not, next year.

Are you sure you will get a ticket? Do they not sell out every home game?

I don't think there is a single club in the whole of Scottish football that sells out.

Even at Castle Greyskull and the Beggardome there are swathes of empty seats every game now.

Entire empty stands at the likes of Kilmarnock and St Johnston are the abiding image of the Scottish game as seen on TV.

Sad, really.

Congratulations to Hearts and to Robbie Neilson and Craig Levein.

Promotion really early in the season and on a fraction of the budget of The Rangers.

Our Robbie deserves plenty of credit, 25 wins and one defeat this season in a tough division. To win the league before Easter in some going.

To be 23 points ahead of Hibs and even more above Rangers in March is some going. Three of the four biggest clubs in Scotland in the second tier.

I'd still say Aberdeen are bigger than both Edinburgh clubs.

 

I've watched Hearts a few times this season when they've been come to play Livi, and they didn't look overly special. Grinded out the wins (and on one occasion in a cup game were absolutely destroyed) against a very physical side. Can't see them making too much of an impact on the SPL next season, 3rd place at best.
