Billy Gilmour called up to the U21 squad - although if he plays at the weekend and has another stormer/MOTM then I can't see how he won't be in the main squad (if those games go ahead).

Two playoffs are already confirmed to be played in empty stadiums - Slovakia v Ireland and Norway v Serbia. Israel has an automatic 14 day quarantine for everyone entering the country, and there's rumours they want this game postponed. Although if we do beat/forfeit Israel then an away game in Oslo or Belgrade in front of no crowd would probably be advantageous (that and half of the Serb team stuck in Italy or Haaland is out for 4-5 days)

Knowing our luck we'll win the Playoffs and the Euros will be cancelled! :D

Champions! Champions! Champions!
And we didn't even have to finish the season. :lol:
There's to be a panel to look in to league reconstruction, with one of the panel being the chairwoman of the club in the relegation spot in the Premiership.

Always had a soft spot for Dundee FC. :lol: :butthead: :lol:

The drama, haha and the Dees!

Sportsound from last week was a great listen with the Caley chairman.

Heard Robbie on OTB last night saying he thinks Shankland will stay for at least a year - score lots of goals - and go somewhere ''bigger,'' e.g not Glasgow.

Reconstruction would be good - 3 leagues of 14 is an interesting prospect. Revenues for the Premiership sides and those Rangers/Celtic games. Don't know how it'll go.

Speaking to my Arbroath pal, they seem happy with it - 'finished' 5th in the Championship which is excellent for part-timers. Incredibly harsh on Thistle though - 2pts behind with a game in hand, I think McCall would have kept them up come Playoffs and so on. Still, Thistle take great fans and League 1 next year (if no reconstruction) should be good for the wee clubs to get a decent away support and a chance for Thistle fans to go and enjoy some victories on the road.

Fingers crossed this works out and we've got football to look forward to in August - even if there's restrictions or beyond closed doors.

Really harsh on Brechin City. They should have stopped relegation from League Two for this season, seeing as it is extremely difficult to get back up.
English league teams had re-election for years and it was hard to drop out the league. Congrats to Cove Rangers though.

Nae sympathy for them after this goal wasn't given in 1993. One of the greatest refereeing fuck-ups in Scottish football history. Their sporting integrity didn't include telling the ref the ball had gone in.

See from 1:11 onwards

A Scottish football quiz starts at 8pm on this YouTube channel - I did it last time, it's fairly easy to do it and if anyone fancies it go for it.

Some tough questions about the journeymen players of the SPFL, but give it a go if you are bored!

Thing I've really noticed about the Scottish clubs' reaction to this has been the wording of the statements. Down here it's all very formulaic, in Scotland words like betrayal and disgrace have been used.

Partick seriously went for it yesterday.
