@ManpreetPTFC_V5 Disgraceful stuff. I hope there is action taken by the club and the police. Straight up hate crimes by cosplaying fascists.

Was expecting this to happen when I found out Raith had our stand, group full of wee fannies doing Nazi salutes but flying Union jacks, brain dead isn’t the word I speak for most Jags fans when I say can we have some clarity on the match process as we’ve had none (1/2)

I’m sorry but a serious question needs to be asked of whoever at the club & SPFL allowed these mutants in to our section. How much did we actually make for the hassle? Why as a fan owned club weren’t we consulted on this matter? @PTFCSLO @PartickThistle @Jags_Foundation @spfl

I joined the protest outside the Civic Centre to save the Aquatec. North Lanarkshire Council have stripped Motherwell of our concert hall, our swimming pool and now the only publicly run gym. Sports and culture play a vital role in improving the well-being of communities.

SCOTBALL 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
Denmark manager Brian Riemer has said he is still in disbelief that his side were unable to qualify directly for the World Cup as qualifying group winners ahead of Scotland: “I maintain I have no doubt at all we were the best team in our World Cup group. “It was entirely undeserved that we finished in second place. "Those who say we were crap are entitled to their opinion. "But I deal with the facts, and when I look at the six games, we deserved to win the group. "When I watch the games again and dive into the data and the numbers, they show that we dominated the games and we created the most chances. "We were the best team." (@heraldscotland)

I was fortunate to meet Mani on Sauchiehall Street one lunch break from work, and he was exactly like this. We exchanged a few words, more than he needed to. He was gregarious, generous, and giving of his time. A top human. His star still shines.

A long time coming (came from my time at @TheSCCJR!), but an absolute pleasure to write with, and feature on the same page as, the wonderful Dr Clare McFeely @ClareUoG @UofGlasgow @UofGMedicine. Her data blew me away every time. Amazing stuff.

I think VAR has a part to play but it should be to overturn on-field decisions that are obviously wrong. Marginal offside calls don't meet that criteria. If nothing else at 60 frames per second a player could have travelled around 15cm between frames even if the tech can detect exactly when the ball was kicked.

I dislike VAR, would prefer it was removed. But what chance has it got when "The Ref's View" is posting this 🤦‍♂️ This is a perfectly good VAR decision. The only debate is do we want VAR to intervene when it's so tight - if the on field decision is onside. Currently the law says yes, offside is offside so VAR must intervene here. So until there's a law change to give a bigger margin of error in the attackers favour, this is the correct decision.

Clearly a ruler hasn’t been used to draw these lines

@gmhales I'm old enough to remember when David Blunkett's leadership was characterised by him telling Sir John Stevens "he needs to feel the heat he's under". I'm going to follow this review with dismay as well as interest.
