Not so much they’re refereed differently in Europe as refereed properly. Just makes Scottish officials look ever more corrupt with all the hacking which they choose to ignore 🟥

I'll be driving from now up to about 6.15, so won't be reading any messages until then.

Anyone wanting the tickets would need to have the Scottish Rugby ticketing app for transferring the tickets. Thanks.

I'm heading to Scotstoun soon to see @GlasgowWarriors take on Stade Toulousain in the Champions Cup. I've just been asked by someone who can't go now, because they're unwell, to try and sell their 2 tickets. North Stand. Row H. Face value £25.50 each. Reply/DM if interested 👍🏻

@DilworthSimon I've got one in the front row of section T (upper terrace). Face value £70. DM, if interested. 👍🏻

This is just fantastic news! Huge congratulations and a massive well done to Ian Reid, Jon Doig and everyone else @Team_Scotland for making this happen. Bringing the best of Commonwealth Sport back to Glasgow in 2026 is going to be wonderful. I can't wait! 🏴🏃🏼♀️🏊♀️

@TomSaxton79 @cbrookmyre It may have been the one I returned to the box office because I hadn't heard back from you! 😁

In Edinburgh this weekend and just spotted that @cbrookmyre has a session at the film festival. Sold out! If anyone has a spare ticket please let me know.

The final day of Olympic wrestling, & the @eurosport commentary remains poor. The final challenge in the PUR-MGL match confirmed that neither commentator understands a basic wrestling rule-3 points of contact needed to score the 2 points for control (2 hands, 1 knee this time).
English
The @eurosport Olympic wrestling commentary is still poor. Colin Bryce is doing it now but, despite him having wrestling experience from many years ago, the sport has moved on a lot. It's a blessing that mats A & C have no @eurosport commentary, which is just annoying on mat B.
English
Great that all the Paris 2024 wrestling is on @eurosport via Discovery+, but it's frustrating to have commentators who obviously have no real technical knowledge of the sport. Neil Adams was fine with his own sport of judo last week, but adds nothing to the wrestling coverage.

@Team_Scotland It was a great honour to receive the Order of Merit award last night from Katie on behalf of Commonwealth Sport, and very special to me that it was done at the Scottish Sports Awards. Thanks to the many people who have been part of the Commonwealth Sport journey with me.

@ITVRugby @gabrielclarke05 Perhaps if he'd behaved more on the pitch with such grace and class, his reputation may have been more positive. A hugely talented player whose behaviour on the pitch was often like a petulant toddler. Good to see some class and humility at the end of that final interview.👍🏻 2/2
English
@ITVRugby @gabrielclarke05 What a complex character Johnnie Sexton is. Bleating at the beginning of the interview about not getting decisions, when Wayne Barnes had as good a refereeing performance as I've ever seen in such a huge match. Then speaking with such grace & class about Andy Farrell. 1/2

"My words won't do Andy Farrell any justice. We're very lucky to have him and I'll miss him." 🥹
