The Tories have already shat it on a no confidence vote in the govt. It is now a personal vote on Humza. Parties don't like leaders of opposite parties shocker. Maybe there be a string of votes in the confidence of Ross, Sarwar, Harvie and Rennie and see what the numbers are like. It would be a complete farce if the smaller parties could topple the leader of the scottish parliament on their whim since the system was designed to represent the diverse views of scotland and therefore unlikely there would be a majority.

The Very Meh Humza Yousaf Thread.
Jim McLean's Ghost replied to Ludo*1's topic in The Politics Forum
The Bute House agreement was one of the worst bits of politics Nicola ever did and it is perhaps a shame she is out the door before it blows up in the SNP's face. There was absolutely no need for there to be a formal agreement and joint cabinet. Was Patrick Harvie really going to topple the govt over not getting a ministerial bike? Humza ditching the Greens isn't a bad move imo. -
Not a surprise. I think Humza wins. The exclusively scottish parties don't want the chance of an election before the GE. Let the SNP get pummeled at the Westminster elections and try to position as the new party for Scotland at the Holyrood elections. And do Alba really want to be seen working with the Tories? Isn't that the exact thing that sent the SNP into the wilderness until Salmond revived the party?

Or not. Some comeback. Man Utd losing 3 goals in 25 minutes to coventry is a shambles. They have been outplayed here.

Semi Final: Aberdeen vs Celtic
Jim McLean's Ghost replied to Melanius Mullarkey's topic in Domestic Cup Football
CCV didn't have the ball under control. And Hoilet playes the ball before he got kicked. -

Hoilet has missed a couple himself put he has put 2 on a plate. Ridiculously good crosses -

He pointed to the foul that happened in the middle of the 6 yard box -

That is what i think too. He played on to see what happened then gave the free kick for the aerial challenge. -

Did robertson give a foul in the middle of the box instead of Hoilett/CCV tackle? -

Chasing VAR out of Scotland
Jim McLean's Ghost replied to HibsFan's topic in Scottish Premiership General Chatter
Isn't Andrew Dallas the head VAR ref or some shit. But obviously not in charge of referees as a whole. -
Nicola Sturgeon Arrested, Peter Murrell Charged
Jim McLean's Ghost replied to Lex's topic in The Politics Forum
Apparetly they were going to have to give the camper van back but one of the coppers has got dibs on it for the Euros so they had to pull Pete back in. -
League split - good or bad ?
Jim McLean's Ghost replied to Jastons6's topic in Scottish Premiership General Chatter
Interesting that Belgium use Wins as the first tie-breaker, then goal difference, goal scored, Slovakia do H2H points. i.e the teams that tie on points are ranked vs their performances against the other tied team in a mini league. -
This is one of those things where you are going to tr and name 3 better left backs than Robertson and look very foolish imo

Since 1992 when English football started he is easily one of the best. Sports Bible ranked him number 2 behind Ashley Cole. So if anyone has a completely rational hatred of Ashley Cole then it seems fair enough. Luke Shaw, Nigel Winterburn, Greame LeSaux are in the top 10. It isn't a who's who of great players.

Like Man utd they have owners that are only interested in the bottom line. And if they are raking in the money then there is nothing wrong even if they aren't competitive. Sell all the season tickets and cream off more from daytrippers. John W Henry is no longer concerned about winning. The Boston Red Sox are comparitively one of the cheapest teams in MLB. They have a huge market but don't spend money to actually compete. He owns the Pittsburgh Penguins who are going to miss the playoffs 2 years in a row. https://pittsburghhockeynow.com/who-is-owner-pittsburgh-penguins-fenway-sports-group-do-they-care/ Fenway Sports Group is looking invest into the PGA Tour and an NBA franchise. More investment from them into Liverpool seems unlikely so the future doesn't look that bright for them.
