[Clyde FC; Season 2022-23]

Just back from walking the dog and it was good to see the stadium floodlights back on. 

[Old Firm Colts in L2]

Collins and Levein going on about young boys playing against ‘men’ all sounded a bit homoerotic.  Maybe they could audition for a remake of the classic Brut advert of the 1970’s.

[Scotland v Israel]

 The only Nations League coverage I could find is Finland v Wales on S4C on Thursday night.  Which begs the question why can’t Scotland games be on BBC Alba ?

Why is argument repeated so frequently, as if it's self-evident? What's the logic behind this? How much does a Brechin City suck out of the League's coffers each year? £16,000? You could pay 24 clubs that amount every season and still not match Neil Doncaster's salary. How much does Brechin City contribute in return? And by that I don't mean producing players for big teams (Strachan's sole criterion). I mean in in an afternoon's entertainment, in decent away days, in local employment, in raising local identity and community cohesion? All in all it qualifies as pretty good value for money.

He's got some nerve talking about value for money, when you think about what he was paid as Scotland manager to talk about genetics.

 

And let us not forget his equating fans abusing a convicted sex offender with the abuse given to players for being non white.

By George I've got it!

Top league of 16 play each other twice.

Top 4 play again twice for title.

Bottom 4 play again twice for relegation.

Middle split into 2 leagues of 4 for a
European spot.

36 games. 4 sacred old firm games. (probably)

Everybody's a winner

Scotland doesn’t have enough European spots at present to allocate one to that middle group.  Might change with the Conference League being added but th e more European football there is the less places Scotland seems to get.

[Would your club back this?]

No promotion for this season is unfair.  Teams that have had good seasons should not be penalised for something outwith their control and asked to try and do it all again the next season, which isn’t a given that they could do.   As for proposals that give us 44 games then it’s another no from me.
