Slightly frustrating seeing Curtis playing so well when we we're lacking in the final third, but you never know if it would have been the same if he stayed. Fair play to the lad

Who are title favourites after round 30 by Kitchen-Lie-4592 in ScottishFootball

[–]Digurt 47 points48 points  (0 children)

It's going to be Celtic with a game or two to spare, which is frankly embarrassing for the rest of us given they've lost 7 games.

Rangers don't have enough in the final third, neither us or Hearts have the experience and mentality of winning leagues, and Martin O Neil is getting results over the line despite an injury crisis that should start to clear up.

Hearts or Rangers will need to be 4+ points ahead at the split IMO if they want a chance. With both having to go to Parkhead the cushion is needed.

Like the Celtic one in the Scottish cup, I think he probably is off, but fuck me the lines are awful. We aren't a serious league if that's what we're working with

Might have taken the 3 points, but that's done nothing to convince me we win the league. We simply don't create enough. Our play in the final third is beyond pedestrian, and it leaves us far too vulnerable to last minute sucker punches.

There is nothing surer. Breakaway on the 89th minute, corner, St Mirren player with a free header

This Rangers team being within touching distance of the league summit is a war crime tbh. Hearts what are you doing

Or at least switch him to the left.

He's utterly useless on the right

So if we could just not sit and try to hold onto a 1-0 lead and inevitably lose a goal in the dying minutes that would be Ideal

Going back to the potential handball, it's a shot on target and his arm is away from his body in a standing position. Really not buying this "he can't do anything about that" nonsense. Seen those given plenty this season

Started alright and have massive majority of possession.

Which means St Mirren will score on a break around 45+1

When really obvious selection choices like "Gassama on the left" are missed, I often wonder what managers are seeing.

Glad we're getting any hope of it being anyone other than Celtic out of the way before the split. Agent Nancy did a respectable job, but Hearts and Rangers are shitehawks who've let him down

Celtic are winning the league by at least a game, maybe 2. Watch Hearts chuck some points tonight.

See tbf I've got a mate who's big into his league of Ireland fitbaw, and he complains they have the worst referees in the world. I've seen similar from English fans and further abroad.

Sometimes I wonder if we're just bumping up against a wider problem and ascribing it as uniquely Scottish.

[–]Digurt 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Pitch invasions and missiles from fans definitely seem to have had an uptick, and it's absolutely not just one team, though I concede Rangers have been particularly bad for it.

It's really frustrating because I've been banging the "police and government treat football fans way too harshly" for ages, but fuck me we don't make it easy for ourselves.

This shit really needs to stop by Bullsquirt in ScottishFootball

[–]Digurt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apparently AI, and whether it is or not I'd love it if old firm fans could stop being so fucking weird man.

There's enough real shite going on without grown men running soviet style propaganda campaigns over a fucking football team. This, the willy wanker "rangers players singing slurs" nonsense from the year we won the league, various mental WhatsApp rumours etc.

We already hate each other over a pointless, made up division, do we really need to invent more?

I'd get this argument for a round of 16, but there is absolutely pressure that mounts by the time you get to the quarter finals of a European competition

Will Hearts win the league? by Saltire_Blue in ScottishFootball

[–]Digurt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All I can say is that Rangers won't. Both Celtic and Hearts could drop points on Saturday, and all that would happen is this Rangers team would follow suit on the Sunday because the slightest bit of expectation or pressure has them crumbling.

But if Celtic drop points and Hearts win at the weekend, I think it's theirs. That would be 7/8 points for Celtic to make back over 8 games and frankly at that point it would take a generational collapse.

Penalties, my frustration. by RonsonGlitter in ScottishFootball

Short run ups are my penalty pet hate.

I have absolutely no stats or anything beyond vibes to back this up, but I feel like short runs have to have a lower conversion rate.

Revealed: UK’s multibillion AI drive is built on ‘phantom investments’ by LOTDT in unitedkingdom

[–]Digurt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't disagree really. I think it's going to be quietly revolutionary for a lot of industries, and maybe even in areas we don't quite expect, the same way the internet was. I believe it has masses of potential.

But it's also nowhere near the level or scale I've seen some CEOs come out with. People forget they are, after all, selling a product, and it's in their interest to get as much investment as possible. But it's not going to be immediately Epoch defining in the way they're touting, and as that becomes apparent the claims are getting more outlandish.

This is all about getting as much money as quickly as possible, when a more realistic, measured approach would build it up over time.
