Went to the Japan vs Spain game as I got free tickets. Really enjoyed it, some fairly decent football and although there wasn't really much of an atmosphere it was still a decent day out. Attendance was about 37,000 I think, but I think most tickets were given to kids for free. I think there were about three kids to every adult at the game.

Seems a little late to still not know which games are going to be on TV, at least initially. Bit frustrating as I've bought my rail tickets to Aberdeen for the Ross County game but slightly concerned it may end up getting moved and I'll have to pay the extortionate amount that Scotrail charge for train tickets to Aberdeen if you don't buy them a month or so in advance.

If Keith get through against St Cuthbert I think I might head to their game against Edinburgh University.

After graduating from a Scottish university I instantly got a job, doing the exact same thing I did before my degree.

"The end of football as we know it" makes it sound as if suddenly the rules are going to change and there will be teams of thirty playing with multiple balls and basketball hoops instead of nets.

Very bad. Two awful kits this season. Both ruined by overcomplicating them.

Sounds a little strange but at least means that there is something to play for even at the end of the season. Though wouldn't that mean that potentially the club that finishes first would miss out on a European slot (if they lose out in the play-offs) but the team who finish 14th could potentially get into the Europa League through the play-offs?

How can a Newco claim that players are breaching their contracts if they refuse to transfer their contracts? Surely the contract is with Rangers, and if Rangers don't exist any more aren't the contracts null and void? It seems ridiculous to say they are a new company so don't have to pay any outstanding debts, but they still get to keep everything the old Rangers had.

As annoyed as I would be it wouldn't be enough to stop me watching Aberdeen. Watching football is something I enjoy doing and since I have been watching football the Old Firm have had a monopoly over the rest of the league and I've felt it's been rigged, all this is doing is proving my suspicions.

I quite like the training tops though.

Not sure what I think of the white shorts. Can only assume they've done that to make the kit look different from last season's in some way. Home shirt looks only slightly different, not worth purchasing.

I thought they were only allowed to do that last year as a one off. The SPL really is a joke of a league.

I went to a bakers in Edinburgh a couple of months ago and they stocked them, but called them 'Aberdeen Scones'.

Copenhagen and Berlin next week. Never been to Berlin before, should hopefully be fun.

Unless Juninho didn't play in some of the Celtic games. Otherwise I don't know.

I would assume Hibs drew against Rangers or Celtic one more time than Aberdeen did that season.

The first season I was old enough to properly support Aberdeen they finished bottom of the league, so from my perspective three successive ninth place finishes is a sign of success

No it's OK, they plan to police it themselves

50p per unit, would this prevent buy one 24 pack of beer get another free or two for £15 deals that tend to come about around Christmas?

Banned from all nightclubs in Edinburgh? How did he manage that?

I've been far too lazy to pay attention to all the ins and outs of what's going on, and far too uneducated on the subject to understand it anyway, but judging by the outrage on twitter and facebook the last few days Rangers are just getting away with everything?

Looking in more detail at the results in my ward there were more spoilt ballots than there were first preference votes for the Tories or Lib Dems.

The three people I voted for all got voted in so fairly pleased from that perspective. Felt like the only person in the polling station though. The guy who handed me my ballot paper was listening to music on his iPod when I got there and looked utterly bored.
