I wonder if we will see two rival Scottish Premier Leagues next season? We could see a SPL consistent with the threats made to SFL clubs last week, let’s call it SPL Loyal, with Hibs, KIlmarnock and a few others. They would sit atop a feeder league containing whoever they could attract from the SFL and Sevco, who due to fan power would be excluded from the top division, no matter how few teams that division had.
Meanwhile a rival SPL could setup, let’s call it SPL Solvent, with Celtic, those from the Gang of 10 who realise they are better-off participating in a league which is likely to survive until next May, along with the teams who last season finished near the top Scottish Football league.
SPL Solvent would make no threats to exclude SFL clubs who were due promotion on merit, and would therefore attract the balance of SFL clubs; which is likely to be the overwhelming majority. This league would contain the only club with the ability to underwrite the commitments needed to bring broadcasters and commercial partners on-board. It would also be free of, moral and ethical questions, where clubs are united with their fans on what it means to organise sporting events.
It’s not the worst idea floated in recent weeks.

SPAIN put it in the onion bag :-(((
Spain are playing like the best team in Europe. Absolutely brilliant goal.

Dead right mate. Spain showing you don’t need a ‘striker’ so long as you have someone with movement!
Hi Ho scores. Just need Italy to score twice….hmmmm!
T4
Well played Fabregas set it up beautifully
For a team of short arses, Spain have scored a fair amount of headers in this tourney
Italy have got them where they want them now!
Class goal Spain
Had Inesta 1st goal, but still got 3 and 4 more goals plus a Spain to win in ET but don’t see that happening.

Sent email to admin re first goals scorer……yep silva!
hamiltontim,
Good passing and movement. It’s a simple game really
Baratoli has more muscles than that wee shop next to the Barras.

Same with Barca against Man U, when Messi headed one in. Put in great crosses and you don’t need to be big to score.
TTTT
Got Italy 2-1 also. Long way to go ma pal!! :-)
ht – can’t see Spain only scoring the one tonight! :-(
Italy need to pull one back before h-t.

Celts in black sox , so historically accurate but aesthetically so wrong, except for the golf stylee items with the diamonds!
I like the idea of the gold socks (think it was the 67 kit?), lets get a wee band wagon going for a green white and gold kit!
spain & italy players will up their game in an attempt to get on greeny’s ‘list of 19’ ;))
I think Iniesta created Adam but doubt he made Eve.
Its scary that I actually agreed with the commentator, Spain play with Arbeloa as the odd man out, he’s in the team but they’ll only pass to him as a last resort. He’s in acres of space all the time, even the opposition don’t bother marking him yet the ball very rarely come his way.
I think with Grant Holt being at Norwich I thought it must have been him and not Gary who played there.
Fair do’s to him.
the Whittle guy isnt even ringing any bells to me now.
Fair play to the guys who pulled that one out of the bag.
Do the same people know who the Celtic u19 goalkeeper was in 1992!?
Before I get big balls and beat the hands off the chest – might have been a reserve keeper!!
kikinthenakas ,
Aye right !
Awe Naw
CelticTV is on Premier sports channel every Monday night, sky channel 433 or ask google :¬)
Canny be bothered with this fitba…… I might pop back and see if the 2nd halfs any good

Back and forward.

Eyes Wide Open,
Was it Shay Given?
EWO
Given
Managed to miss the goal pouring some bombay mix. Spain look livelier than in the whole tournament. Who is worse Lawrenson or Townsend?
