SPFL 24/25 - On beIN Sports (Scottish Cup on 10)

[Hamingja]

With Livi going down, Kilmarnock apparently putting grass pitch in, we need Ross County to win the playoff for no plastic pitches in the top division (as it should be)

We won the first leg 2-1 away at Raith yesterday. Second leg is tonight.

I hate this sport

IDAH have some of that.

 

[Hamingja]

Low quality game not helped by the pitch. Queens Park don't even play there anymore do they? It hosts like semis on in the cups and Scotland games and that is about it? Yet the pitch looked like it had just been through a full round of rugby league fixtures in magic round.

Good way to send off Hart and probably O'Riley.

Be interesting to see whether they sign Idah and Bernardo permanently. Could argue for and against each at the cost. I don't think Idah is a great player but he has attributes that are handy for the Scottish game, he has proven he can score important goals, and he is probably happy to be a squad player. Bernardo has a solid base but you would be wanting him to keep improving to justify the sort of fee Benfica would want. He profiles like a baby O'Riley so I would probably sign him if he wants to stay, he might not fancy Scotland on a permanent basis being a Portugal U-21 though.

Ross County leading the second leg of the SPFL playoff 1-0 and 3-1 on aggregate.

County score a second and now lead 4-1 on aggregate.

 

[CURVE]

Barring the greatest collapse in the history of the world sport, County will be playing in the premiership in season 2024/25. They are now leading 3-0 (5-1) with five minutes to go.

 

[CURVE]

Full time and County win the second leg 4-0, winning 6-1 on aggregate.

It will be our sixth consecutive season, and 12th of the last 13 seasons in the SPFL.

County miles too good for Raith. I’ve got a soft spot for the Rovers though, having briefly worked in Kirkcaldy back in the day. It’s a shite town, but the people were really nice.
Anyway, County were stiff to even be in the play offs and the class difference showed out. It’s good for the Highlands to have a rep in the Premiership.

Especially now with ICT relegated to League One, The Staggies are the only Highland team in the top two leagues.

More games in UK, means more games in aus (hopefully. Premier sports have the Scottish Cup so more games on 10???

Boyle has been shit the last couple of seasons since his major injury. Hopefully he can get back to some of his best hun skelping form in the season proper.

 

[windyhill]

Schmichel to Celtic.

 

[Hamingja]

Things falling apart across the other side of the city

We all know Cantwell is a petulant child but completely unhinged for the manager to finish the press conference then decide to come back in for a drive by on their own player

 

[windyhill]

Good start.

 

[TheGreatBarryB]

Sounds like the commentators are broadcasting from the studio. Pissweak for a derby

Not sure what bein are playing at. They would usually just take the sky feed

 

[Hamingja]

Celtic front 3 just way too quick for their back 4.

Rampant cheating on the VAR lines. Drawing the line off his arm. Only in Scotland could you allow Dallas on VAR. It would be the equivalent of Xander McGuire doing score reviews on a Collingwood game.

 

[windyhill]

Beautiful.

 

[TheGoldPersons]

Biggest club in the country

 

[Thistle]

Aberdeen look like they could be strong competition for second this season

 

[windyhill]

Fair start in Europe, wasn’t expecting that !
