It is quite satisfying to see these clubs shite themselves a bit and realise that although they've shafted their fans for years, there is a line they can't cross. Although they shouldn't be praised for this, the greedy c***s agreed to it in the first place and their desire to do something like this in the future won't just dissapear.

There's no source for him saying that, just made up by someone on Twitter as far as i can tell.

It's a difficult thing to imagine but i think i'd just pack it in with Celtic if we got involved with it. I know us and Rangers are very much corporate entities these days, but the main thing Scottish football has going for it is that it still somewhat belongs to the fans. The clubs couldn't survive without the folk who go every week, where as to the big clubs down south their fans are completely dispensable - they don't rely on gate money for income and if the local fans stopped going they'd be replaced by tourists anyway.
i'm fully aware that we have a stadium plastered with advertising for our official gin partner, or whatever latest betting start-up we've accepted money from - but there's at least the feeling or illusion that the club is still somewhat connected to it's roots, and that we as fans still have a bit of a say.

I thought the whole thing was a bit of a bluff to be honest, but that really would be catastrophic if it does happen. Don't think the folk saying that it'll kill football as we know it are bing overly dramatic.

Yer man Fairbanks has to be the most infuriating character in TV history.

I found the whole introduction of the racial murder case a bit fast moving at times, seemed like every couple of minutes there was some new link/detail being added to it when it had only just been explained. Either way the very obvious nods to real life cases are quite interesting.

I suppose the fact that i was so shocked maybe makes it a good finish but i dunno, felt like it just completely dropped off out of nowhere without a big build to the finish.

Hogan really just looks like a tragic auld guy now, instead of well, Hulk Hogan. His gimmick is well an truly gone.

Yup, I heard it too.
Also said 'i gotta go to the bathroom' according to Twitter.
Something quite exciting about it all being a bit of a shambles and done on a fly, it's usually far too scripted and rigid if anything.

Did the presenter there just say 'i guess we're standing by incase it gets stopped again' over the promo package?

It was last year. Last year's was in Tampa. This year's is in Tampa so they are just going ahead with it because it was in the PC and they didn't really get to use the theming.
Think that's why they are going with 'correcting the course'
I did think it was last year, think it might've been better to just make it completely separate and different, half makes it feel like they're discarding last year's WM as if it didn't really happen, although it didn't feel like a WM at all in fairness.
Looking forward to seeing how they fill out the time here. Got the feeling they're scrambling about backstage in a panic trying to cut segments on the spot.

Also is there a particular reason for the pirate type theme? i'm sure i've seen that type of theme/package for a WM before, if not very recently.

Vince looks brutal, although not as bad as his appearance the other month. Make up, lip fillers and hunners of plastic surgery/botox isn't a great look on a 75 year old man, especially one who has had about an hour of sleep every week for the last 40 year.

Alvarez saying on Twitter that Wrestlemania is currently 'on hold' - few photos i've seen don't look too clever either.

I understand that his time will come pretty soon for Scotland, that there's no real need to panic about him not playing every week just now, and also that comparisons with other players from other clubs and countries aren't really worth much etc etc - but seeing Jude Bellingham start (and stand out in) a Champions League quarter final, with 64 games of senior football and 2 international caps under his belt at 17 - a full 2 years younger than Gilmour, does make me a wee bit apprehensive. Gilmour really hasn't played a lot of football for someone who turns 20 in a couple of months. Then again McTominay hardly kicked a ball for Man United until he was 20/21 and he's turned out OK, but it is a little frustrating that our young prospects often seem to hit a bit of a brick wall after they break through, instead of becoming first team regulars at 18/19 like players from other countries do - suppose this is just due to us not producing many players who are at the level to force themselves into top sides at that age. I probably got carried away and thought Gilmour would be one of those players.
None of this is to do with Steve Clarke picking him or not really (fwiw i'd get him involved pronto) as it's perfectly understandable if Clarke thinks he's not played enough to warrant a call up - but i do think some of the concerns about his progress and future at Chelsea are somewhat valid.

Very good from Hendry there. Could get embarrassing for Dunfermline, i'm saying at least 6.

It just strikes me as the same shitebaggery as before tbh. Fear meaning that we give teams more respect than they deserve. I think you could argue that Austria commanded a bit of respect, but Israel absolutely do not.
This is my main issue i think. Typical inferiority complex stuff where we look terrified of the opposition from the get go, regardless of who they are, and play like we're massive underdogs - in that sense it felt like a bit of a Levein performance. What makes it even more infuriating is that unlike the Levein era where we had a nucleus of championship/lower EPL grafter/clogger type players - we do actually have a good few players who can pass and control a ball now.
He had a stinker tonight but i think McTominay nailed it in his interview on Thursday - we need to be more arrogant and go into these games realising that we do in fact have some very good players, and should be taking the game to teams like Israel and believing that we should beat them. I have no problem with Clarke setting us up to be stuffy against sides clearly better than us, but it felt like we were playing with the shackles on tonight against a side we should really be able to take the game to.

Utter, utter shite. I'll always appreciate the night in Belgrade but i worry Steve Clarke is not the man. Setting us up against Israel as if we're playing against World Cup finalists is unforgivable. Same inferiority complex shite we've been plagued with in the past, Dismal.
