The right thread would be the Scottish Football thread But I don't blame you for not going there >_>

That thread is a ghost town. Have they not had any matches in the Scottish league over the last two weeks?

Actually no, they've been on a winter break because the weather in Scotland is so shit.

Also, I think I could score against Aidrieonians if playing up front for Celtic. They're in the third division.

Hearing a rumour that the coach of the Arsenal women's team might get the job coaching the Australian women's team.

Wayne Rooney spoke 'broken English' at time of arrest, says police report.

I'm fairly optimistic that by "broken English", the Washington police had never heard a Scouser before and wondered what on earth they were hearing. 

[Colly]

I mean yes, but the fucking gall of Americans suggesting an Englishman is speaking broken English. Fucking colonials.

After just six months as the head coach of the Socceroos, reports have surfaced that Graham Arnold is already looking to leave his post in favour of taking on a club role. According to ESPN sources, Arnold is keen to take up a position with Hibernian Football Club in the Scottish Premier Football League.

Hibernian's coach Neil Lennon was reportedly suspended following a run-in with the club chief. As a result, Hibernian's academy coach Eddie May stood in for Lennon in their 3-1 win over St Mirren last weekend.

Arnold has had plenty of contact with Hibernian since taking the helm of the Australian national team. He visited Hibernian prior to the Asian Cup, in a recruitment mission to get Hibernian's Scottish-born Martin Boyle to play for the Socceroos, qualifying through his Australian father. Jamie Maclaren and Mark Milligan also play for Hibernian.

The injury-hit Socceroos unfortunately had a disappointing Asian Cup campaign. The reigning champions crashed out of the tournament last week after a 1-0 defeat to United Arab Emirates in the quarterfinals.

Presume most of you have seen this but Paddy Power have come out with the greatest advertisement ever featuring Rhodri Giggs ... Don't know how much they pay their marketing team but they need/deserve more ... 15 seconds in, "The Wandering Cock", is definitely not a mistake 

[Matt]

They've cut that bit out of the TV advert unfortunately. Glad to see the home wrecking scum cunt actually getting some shit though rather than being wanked over because he's one of fergies lads.

News on future of @ElevenSports_UK streaming service: Exclusivity gone on La Liga rights. They’ll still show all games but Premier Sports, which has channels on Sky & Virgin, will show any 4 each round including the upcoming Clasico.
Eleven chair is Leeds owner Andrea Radrizzani

I've got Eleven until August, but I may switch to Premier if they end up with all of the coverage going into next season. Having to stream the games via chromecast isn't an issue for me.

[Cymbols]

Premier Sports is great, and getting better 

[Baddar]

The issue for me at the mo is that only one of their channels is in HD on Sky which is shocking in 2019. If they do get exclusive La Liga coverage I'd have to bite the bullet and go for it.
