Team that spends more than the rest of the league combined wins the title, shocker

Oh how I’m weeping. I don’t know if you remember Murray, they put down a fiver, we put down a tenner? Using EBT’s to keep players McLiesh said, we couldn’t have kept without it. Won a few titles pulling a fast one on Lizzie’s Inland Revenue. Didn’t hear any **** mentioning that then.

It’s come full circle and more. Rangers put down a borrowed fiver we put down £50k.

This summer we already have money and Frimpong alone with bring in more than the utter dross they are trying to flog. Estimated £10m for Frimpers. Then if Tierney leaves Arseholes that’s another few million.

I agree money talks if you have someone who knows what they are doing. Raskin and Waterboy are pish and the players mentioned so far are even worse.

Maybe another 1690 share issues and you could put up a fight. Then you have to ask, is Ange going to sit in all that cash, eh no, so you have a guy who knows a class player with a big bag of doubloons, itching to be spent.

The only interesting thing happening in the dour and boring Scottish pyramid is the promotion to it, of a team, by the name of "Spartans"!!! I thought Bonnyrigg Rose could not be surpassed last year!

So you have a lot of experience watching a lot of our football? Go on, let me know how many actual games you’ve been to, or watched? I probably watch more fucking NFL than you do Scottish Football.

Ooooh I say! Mr Angry.....calm down dear!

I profess I have seen too much as it tends to put me to sleep or I come away with a sore neck from watching the football being launched into orbit.

However, I can claim to have seen live, the last game of professional football played by actor Martin Compston of "Line of Duty" fame. He came on for the last 10 minutes of a end of season game playing for Greenock Morton at Queen of the South in April 2002. Me and some mates spent a weekend in Dumfries so went to that game which the Doonhamers won 4-0. The meat pies sold from the kiosk at the back of the covered end behind the goal were scrumptious and made up for the poor fayre on the pitch!

I’m perfectly calm, just knew you were talking from perception rather than experience. Glad you enjoyed the pies though.

A stonewall penalty that occurs outside the box isn’t really stonewall

Surely you're aware that although the initial contact was outside the box,the holding continued into the box in one motion, therefore it's a pen.
Demichelis found this out to our cost against Barca a few years ago.
The laugh here is Beaton awarded a corner ffs, completely ignoring the incident.

Holding by both players though and the Aberdeen player initiated the holding by grabbing first. It was a Rangers free kick if the laws were applied correctly.

Rangers don’t get penalties awarded against them. It’s the first rule in the SFA Ref handbook. You don’t need to state your allegiance either, unlike England, just give them your lodge number. You’ll be getting CL games in no time.

Thought the Aberdeen penalty claim was outside the box.Cannot understand why the foul was not given.

Me neither, it would certainly buck the trend if it was awarded. As it should have been, Beaton, Aye Ready.

They will need to invent a new level in the Ludge for the ****. He’s that important, delivers more than Kent, don’t get me wrong, the Bass Rock postman delivers more than that imposter. The best thing you could say about Kent this season would be, well, unlike Morelos, at least Kent didn’t get on the pies.

Legend. Comparatively
 
Well, the wheels really did fall off the Queen’s Park wagon as the season closed, with their defence incapable of keeping a clean sheet. Partick Thistle will now face Ayr United, who haven’t been in the top flight sine the 1970s, for the right to slug it out with whoever finishes second bottom. Could it be an all Ayrshire contest?

Good article in Guardian last week

Queen’s Park close to Scottish top-flight return but there is sting to tale

Former amateurs have risen from obscurity and hired Owen Coyle but there are questions over funding and sustainability
