Should have said that that it what I remember it being but it could well be wrong or have changed. I was not particularly impressed with him in last game against us. Would not be worried if he is in.

Is it not next game for first of two games then second game is next in the relevant competition.

St Johnstone 1-0 up in Celtic at half time.

Just found out that Sky show Bundesliga 2 games on YouTube free. Currently watching Koln v Hertha Berlin. Been decent so far. Loved Koln stadium when was there for Euros. 46,000 there tonight brilliant atmosphere.

Morris was poor last time he started and thought Okkels had is best game last week. Shows what I know.

Broken shoulder keeping me out of this one which is gutting as Elgin says one of the better away days. Would expect Tobers to come in for Dorrington if fit and that to be only change. I would drop Gueye myself as just don’t think he is much of a footballer but expect manager to stick with him. Need to win this one to keep pressure on rivals for third. oot flat Local game probably Musselburgh flat 2-0 Nisbet and Clarkson.

Barcelona 1-0 up in second semi final approaching half time.

Finished 4-4 with Real Madrid progressing 5-4 on aggregate. Second semi final between Atletico Madrid and Barcelona is tomorrow night. First leg was 4-4.

In Germany Arminia Bielefeld from 3rd division beat Bayer Leverkusen 2-1 to put them out of German Cup and make final.

Do they make much less cash from taking league cup back to straight knockout?

Going into extra time now.

Sociedad go 4-3 ahead to take tie to 4-4 aggregate.

3-3 now. Sociedad keeper flogging the Real Madrid equaliser on the night. 4-3 on aggregate now.

Real get it back to 2-3 and level the tie again. Both sides going for it.

Sociedad 3-1 up and now ahead in the tie.

Sociedad 2-1 up and level up tie 2-2 on aggregate. Good game this.

Madrid back level and a head in the tie.

This is only being done to benefit the usual two and not the rest of us. If they want to reduce fixtures for rest of top flight then ditch the league cup group games and go back to straight knockout format. Means could start league games earlier and create space later in calendar. Would not benefit either of the bigots but might others.

Real Sociedad level tie in Spanish cup semi final. On Premier Sports just now.

Just watched highlights of that. Neither team seemed capable of defending. Could easily have finished 5-5.

Really pleased with that performance other than the goal we conceded. Clarkson and Palaversa were excellent. Better from Okkels but no way I would pay a fee for him. Thought Gueye was lucky not to get a red for his challenge in first half without having seen if back on TV. Nisbet lead forward line brilliantly. Still not sure how his second dipped so much. Ross Hardie is a terrible referee and probably does need some time back in lower leagues. Should not be officiating top flight games. Very pleasant journey back to capital tonight.

As this is last season 3rd could be guaranteed European group football think we need to get in to get in and make the cash.

Match is a sell out according to club.

For fucks sake Manc where’s the game day thread. Mitov out and P&J reporting that Nilsen out injured for next few weeks as well. Really glad I booked that expensive train ticket.
