5. Quick question for our Scottish brethren. In this post split format, how do the SFA work out the home and away games for the top 6? Unless I'm seeing it all wrong, some teams will have a 3/2 list, while others will have a 2/3. Which seems unfair.
Games pre split taken into account so all teams should play the same amount of home and away games throughout the season.
If it cannot be worked out evenly then the sixth placed club usually lose out.
 
They should do away with the split. You get 4 games against each team. That's it. Save on all the shit every permutation throws up.

No idea how it works and how many league games left

I actually like the split now. It gets rid of meaningless games for the midtable clubs and look at the games we have over the next 5 weeks at both ends of the table

Obviously supporters are going to moan but without a split they’d moan who has the easier run in / easier start to the season. Etc etc.
 
Absolutely ludicrous game. Falkirk getting talked up big time prior to the game; they were shite. I'd even fancy Spurs to beat them. That's taking nowt away from Rangers, by the way. They were clinical in what they had to do.
For me McGlynn has to be in the conversation for Manager of the year. He has taken Falkirk from the 3rd tier to the Top 6 in consecutive seasons with next to no budget. They play attractive football and have a great chance of reaching the Scottish Cup Final next week.
 
Falkirk v Dunfermline in the Scottish Cup Semi Final this afternoon.
A huge game for both teams with a fierce rivalry up there with the best in Sottish football.

If McInnis wins the league its his. McGlynn has been brilliant. They click and they can play you off the park. No fear of either of us. They take us on. Great tp see. If O'Neil wins it with the pile of shite squad and form we have, its a Nobel Prize as well. :)
 
As bad as it gets.Spoils Falkirks whole season.
Would have been a really decent final whoever gets through tomorrow.

I’ve no love for Dunfermline and even less for their manager but they have beaten Hibs , Aberdeen and now Falkirk so fair play to them. They are still Townie bastards though. Lang Toon Loyal!!
 
Hibs 1 up early on in the Edinburgh derby, but down to 10 men after less than quarter of an hour, keeper sent off for handling outside the box, a DOGSO as a Hearts player was the closest to him.
 
Huge result at Ibrox. As it stands right now, Celtic are the big winners this weekend. Still an hour to go at Easter Road, mind. Plenty of time for Hearts to get back into the game.
