Indicator Posted October 12, 2018 Report Share Posted October 12, 2018 "Hearts' Scottish League Cup semi-final against Celtic has been moved to Murrayfield in Edinburgh and will kick-off at 13:30 GMT on Sunday, 28 October. Aberdeen v Rangers will take place on the same day at Hampden at 16:30. ... "It just feels as if it's assumed that Celtic and Hearts should go to Murrayfield". Apparently Celtic are not best pleased as there was no consultation - they were simply informed that their match had been moved. Assume that the other match is kicking off later, (sensible) to allow Aberdeen fans to get there in time for K.O. sixties saintee 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Completely out of his depth i'm afraid. Poor guy, but poor Scotland. The SFA will stick with him. What an utter mess. Sacking Strachan was total stupidity. MySpazz and 541ntees 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MySpazz Posted October 12, 2018 Report Share Posted October 12, 2018 It's actually gotten to joke levels now. How can we even joke about this. The SFA should be taken out back and SHOT! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abernethy Saint Posted October 13, 2018 Report Share Posted October 13, 2018 And will cost a fortune to get rid of. Stuck with him. Astonishingly we are still top of the group, and a win and a draw will probably see us through, though the Portugal game could be a real embarrassment.

Abernethy Saint Posted October 13, 2018 Report Share Posted October 13, 2018 Agreed. After all, it’s not as if Britain has done or said anything to upset any European countries recently. Havana Saint 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest, as a potential customer of these channels I'd much prefer to have it all on one platform and only have to subscribe to one service, rather than two. So it's arguably better for the fans. Still, if I had the choice I'd probably prefer BT Sport had kept it, as their Scottish football coverage has been a bit better than Sky's from what I've seen. I take it the matches shown on Premier Sports will be pay-per-view?  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
541ntees Posted November 20, 2018 Report Share Posted November 20, 2018 im not sure if its a good deal money wise but if its a big increase im not sure what the problem is? we slag doncaster for years for not getting enough money now it seems hes got one and we re still on his back. as blueheaven says you only need to pay for 1 subscription now too. i dont subscribe to any im old fashioned , go to the saints game then watch the highlights on sportscene so the only way it affects me is more money for my club so im happy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is the increase? there was silly money getting thrown around then, even we were paying for players. we cant keep comparing our league with "the best league" in the world Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
541ntees Posted November 21, 2018 Report Share Posted November 21, 2018 the ticket coillections were a farce last night!. a a portakabin with 4 windows for a-m a portakabin with 4 widows for n-z. i arrived 30mins before kick-off . it doesnt take a genius to realise that the n-z line was empty and in scotland the a-m line was backed up towards the train st. luckily i only missed 10mins and the 1st Israel goal but there were still folk coming in near half time . think the crowd was only 21.000 how they gonna handle a sell-out crowd? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garydavidson Posted February 21, 2019 Report Share Posted February 21, 2019 If this isn't rescinded then Rangers do have a point about the system being flawed: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/av/football/47313927 I am sure Rangers will issue a press statement about the decision being wrong any minute now.

Indicator Posted February 21, 2019 Report Share Posted February 21, 2019 (edited) Tantamount to 'match fixing' in my opinion. They are desperate to win a trophy to justify the expenditure on players. By whatever means. Edited February 21, 2019 by Indicator Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
