I see Hibs have sacked Terry Butcher.
I'm surprised it took em a couple of weeks or so to do it.
Hibees fans have been protesting about the state of their club just lately.

That was a remarkable finish for Hibs wasn't it . Saw something in the press,2 page splash about butcher boasting how he was going to celebrate the victory after they won the first leg,not a bit surprised though ?, one win in nineteen was a disaster

They were truly awful last season, at least Hearts youngsters showed a bit of fight- and it really pains me to say that! |

I see Alan Stubbs is in the mix.If you read what the Everton fans are saying , they would only be too delighted to be rid of him.Not Popular at all it is believed he had a hand in the Rooney transfer to United which some on merseyside find unforgivable . though seems to have done a reasonable enough job with the Blues reserves and really can't do worse than butcher i'd thought

Dundee have signed a few players for next season.Players who I think can 'do a job' rather than set the place on fire so to speak.The lad from Dumbarton might be a good un,was voted into the 'Championship Team of the Season'.Defender Paul McGinn.

Wouldn't pretend to be a Scottish football expert but wouldn't it be so much better if they had just 2 divisions?
A top division of 20 clubs and a 2nd division of 22.
3 up 3 down with play offs for a promotion place and a Europa league place in the top division.
Seems like the top flight clubs just want the revenue a visit from Celtic (and formerly Rangers) generates twice a season so they'd never advocate a league restructure of 2 divisions.

I always remember it being just two divisions when I was younger, I think it changed when the Premier League was formed ( late 70s). Having two clubs dominate a league isn't particularly unique to Scotland though, although even a s a Celtic fan I will concede the last two seasons have been tedious beyond belief as far as the top flight is concerned. |

Deila at Celtic has had an awful start going by the Celts CL exit.
6 1 over the two games.Things will have to buck up for him you might think.
I hope at least one Scottish club has a half decent run in Europe.

Disgrace isn't it, if it was a 'big' team, they'd be fined, the guy plays 2mins of a match that's already 6-1, and they get punished!
I understand last years, as one team fielded 5 eligible players.

I agree actually. I have a celtic season ticket to enable me to get to champions league games, but it is an embarassing situation. Surely we can beat maribor?  On a different not I was at stenhousemuir v airdrie today. Poor game, but it really wasn't much different to what I watched at roivers last season. |
