Good stuff - and good from the Scots lads. Something to look forward to with maybe a little bit of hope for better times for the National team. And once Rangers get their act together with their youth players maybe the Awful Firm will be able to supply a decent core to a half decent Scotland - supplemented by a few jambos - maybe hibees - plus a few exiles playing in England (principally going to be Robertson)

week-in week-out I don't give a monkeys for Celtic and Rangers players - but when they pull on the Scotland jersey they will have my full and unbridled support.

I'm not following why this should be a thing, or why it's a good thing? Sevco have proven for a long time now that youth development isn;t their thing, Hearts & Hibs much better in that department, as are the Dons.

Aye, unless they dramatically overhaul their team, I won;t be watching unless it's Dons away. Andy Walker, Boyd, Commons. Load of shite the lot of them. Plus a commentator who can't pronounce half the Scottish names, wtf is so hard about "Murray" for instance?

I just love the pundit who pronounces Gerrard with a French accent.
I recon he has a bet on with someone.:cool:

Should be a good game tonight, Aberdeen v Hibs (y)
 
It was a wild night at Pittodrie last night.
Well done to both teams for giving us a decent game.
Aberdeen charging up the league now, if they had lost they would have been in 8th place.

Thank you BT Sport...…..BBC SCOTLAND ????? were offering us the mouthwatering option of watching Harringay Borough Council play AFC Wombledon.

Why are you showing surprise ? BBC don’t have a contract to show SPL football but they do have one to show the FA Cup and it was also on BBC2 - so your typical faux outrage at the BBC is once again groundless
 
Doon frae Troon said:
Aye Right. They don't have a contract with the SPL.
That ended when the SPL ended.:love:

Maybe you need to read it

The agreement means BBC Sport Scotland will continue to provide TV and online highlights and live radio commentary of Ladbrokes Premiership, Championship, League 1 and League 2 matches from season 2016/17.

So please explain how they can show the match last night when they can only show “highlights

You never mentioned "live" football, you just said they didn't have a contract to show it, which is technically wrong.

To get back on topic again it was a very wild night at Pittodrie making playing conditions tough but what a strike from GMS to light up the game. Goal worthy of winning any game.

I thought it was pretty obvious when Doon was dribbling on about BBC showing an FA Cup match when Aberdeen were playing “live”
 
Ahh.... but just wait until the Hearts first team return from injury.

Pundit guy saying St Johnstone have played seven and a half hours of fitba without conceding a goal, some record.

BTW Great fighting draw from Celtic v's the team who finished 4th in last years SPFL2;)

By the time you are finished visiting Pittodrie, Easter Road and Ibrox between now and Christmas, you'll be 3rd at best.

Hope you enjoyed your wee shot at the summit, with a fair wind you might manage it again at the start of next season for a few weeks.

3rd but only a point behind...…..I'll take that with our team retuned to full strength for the run in.:D

About that gap...🤣🤣🤣

Celtic will be pulling clear very soon, the race for 2nd is hotting up as Rangers continue to climb the table.

Yeh Celtic stalled after a Mid Week game, but you would have expected them to beat a poor Livingston team for sure

5 wins on the bounce and no goals conceded. A record for Saints in the top league of Scotland - ever. We don't believe it was ever done even by Willie Ormond's brilliant boys. Apparently in the first half we played the best football we have played in decades - according to the older fans. And our goalie is 26yr old Scots (glaswegian) lad - Zander (Alexander) Clarke - pushing for a Scotland place?

Not really sure if you are trolling or not but I really can't grasp why you seem to take such delight given such an uneven playing field that Hearts have faltered slightly. It was always going to be the case, finances and playing squads are hardly comparable.

Celtic have underachieved so far but they will still win the league at a canter. Hearts and Aberdeen (last three years) should be proud of their achievement considering the massive gap.

Spot on you need ony look at the wage bill to see the gulf but on the park it's not showing. And with all the recent news in the papers it seems that the Big Yin Knew after all.
