What's the most "Tin Pot" thing you've seen in the SPFL

If you know there are traffic problems then you might set off a bit early, but that doesn't prevent you from still being delayed by further unforeseen issues such as an accident. We had a game at Tynecastle called off a few years ago after our team bus got stuck on the M8 because of an accident, these things happen.

You're right these things happen. No idea why everyone is defending Rangers when they knew of the problems in advance.

They knew about an accident in advance of it happening? Have they been in touch with the writers of the Final Destination series?

Are you being deliberately obtuse? Regardless of the accident, Rangers knew there major traffic problems. Just get there early.

You can't say "regardless of the accident", when the accident blocked the road - that is an unforeseen incident that is going to lead to a delay no matter how prepared you are. There's already been a delay this season where Livingston's bus broke down on their way to Dingwall - presumably your advice would have been "Livingston knew that buses sometimes break down. Just run a second bus behind the first one."

Bloody hell. You'll pleased to know you've worn me into submission.

it’s easy to criticise Ross County but

Keeping Malky Mackay in Dingwall isolated away from anywhere with a large ethically diverse population is probably a good thing for society on balance.

In fact that point probably still stands even without the words “ethnically diverse”

When I went to school in Dingwall in the 60s, there was exactly one Pakistani family in the town - indeed probably in the whole county.

In the almost complete absence of any non-white people to discriminate against, we had to make do with the "traveller" population.

There's a sad but universal human tendency to find some "other" group to shun, persecute or blame.

I’m sure Scot Foam was an Alan Stubbs & Darren Jackson signing for St Mirren. Signed because Jackson was his agent. Made one substitute appearance for the reserves before mysteriously disappearing. WTF are Dundee doing, naming stadiums after Stubbs & Jackson diddies? Tinpot indeed.

Why was there never questions when, up until around 2 months ago, it was called The Kilmac Stadium?

Cos’ Kilmac doesn’t sound diddy, while Scot Foam sounds exceedingly diddy. It’s Dens anyway. 👍
