My wallet was stolen from inside my work today in SCS in Kilmarnock, I could care less about the bank cards or anything in it but I was given the wallet as a gift from Laura from Mia before she passed away and I cherish it more than anything. Shares would be appreciated.

If Rangers and Celtic are going to earn more from two games in Australia than a season under the current TV deal in Scotland, I think there has to be a question put to the SPFL and a serious rethink to how poor the deal is for the league as a whole.

Hibs and Livingston are level on points with Dundee United in 4th and if they finished above them on points would be unable to qualify for Europe. Ladies and gentlemen, the perfect example of how this league split is stupid.

Derek McInnes is not a contender for the Rangers job. Giovanni Van Bronckhorst is the number one target and is keen to take the job and even has a plan for his coaching staff. If talks go as planned which according to reports are likely to start ASAP then Gio will get job.

Celtic have had 109 penalties in all competitions in 10 years. Rangers have had 116 penalties in all competitions in 10 years. Not that anyone should care but the myth that Rangers get so many penalties than Celtic is not true.

The audio for this is actually worse than what I expected it to be. Nick Walsh comes across as dangerously arrogant and seems unable to listen to reason. Fair play to the VAR team who try and explain he is wrong with reason and logic, Walsh can’t get out of his own way.

Cinch pay £1.6 million per season into the SPFL as sponsors. That’s just over £38,000 per club. I have got in trouble earlier in the week for my opinions but I really don’t see this as a bank busting sponsorship deal and I don’t blame Cinch one bit for that.

John Hartson is the worst commentator in football and how TNT think he is the best to cover six straight Celtic games absolutely blows my mind. He offers no insight, doesn’t know the rules and sounds whiny all the time. If he’s the best that they can find, what does that say.

Fully expecting Sam Lammers to be allowed to leave Rangers in January on a loan deal. The 26-year old has been an unused substitute in the previous two matches, also a high earner so very unlikely that another club would sign him permanently in this window. Been a bad signing.
