Scottish football having a bit of a bad week. The Dundee game being called off again while amateur teams down the road are able to play their games on the same night. I think Motherwell have a point regarding Dundee neglecting the pitch and investing in the squad to achieve a top six place while they have sacrificed players to have a great pitch.

Scotland have now lost automatic champions League entry after next season. A pretty embarrassing contribution from Celtic given their resources.

And nothing to do with it being easier to rack up points in the also rans tourney ??

Talking about underachieving not one Scottish ref involved at any level in this summers Olympics tells its own tale of their incompetence ??

Automate offsides and scrap VAR so the refs can still get to see head knocks and play advantage to their favourite teams ??
One thing VAR is perfect at is the instant offsides given in the champions league using AI with the computer generated image showing exactly what's offside. Takes seconds. Scotland get the one where a man's to manually put a line leaving the decision still potentially wrong. Half the lines are through a foot and not on the edge lol

Glad to see that Rangers got their customary last minute penalty, otherwise that would have been a travesty

Lucky goldson got away with another handball. He must have thought his gig was up at the celtic game finally being caught but back to business as usual.

Simon Murray deserves a Scotland call up.

Only half kidding. We need a ginger or two in the squad.

Oh, and BTW. Anyone else spot the "Dingwall Chosen Few" on the telly? Bet they had a lovey day. hehe Honestly don't understand the mentality of that.

The Dens Park penalty spots have passed inspection and the Rangers game in hand is on. I sense a chance of them bottling it again.

Thought the pitch at Dens park looked in great condition tonight as I tuned in to enjoy the last 10 minutes. Well done to ground staff.

A really poor performance from Rangers last night who showed nothing going forward. They'll be lucky to win another game this season if they continue with that sort of display. Clement looked furious and has a job to do to get them into shape for the weekend. Hopefully it has given him a good idea of what is needed in his rebuild.

As a Celtic fan living in Aberdeenshire and a Pittodrie regular, it was important that the team most able to win the final went through. In that respect, on balance, I'm happy with the result. Though at this rate, Hearts will be thinking that the cup is theirs this year hehe

Great Semi today
As usual some dubious referring calls
Will be happy when Kelle Roos goes at end of season
Congrats to Leven and the team for going for it today and making a good match of it

Who'd have thunk it?

Some game, nearly missed the first, howler from MacDonald for equaliser, then at 2:1 down seemed like normal service had been resumed.

Fair play to the Dons for coming back to 2:2, then somehow managing again at 3:3. Possible penalty?

Penalties... felt bad for Duncan having to hang around before hitting the post. Nearly lost my voice when Hart missed too.
