There are only two over the 4,444km long Amur.

Hopefully your budget is increased a bit for the Championship so you can buy some much needed punctuation.

Probably because he continues to support a club that he knows does f**k all to discourage their fans from singing such nonsense. Better men have said "f**k being associated with that", yet he steadfastly flies with the crows.

I'm sure the players do. But do you really think the B teams' coaches are deciding line-ups and substitutions 100% on what's most likely to get them the points and not what's best for the players' development, which is surely the main focus of their job?

Queen Street definitely has them on the platforms, as does Stirling.

Explains Airdrie.

I was on a train the other week and took my litter with me so it could be placed into the appropriate bins for recycling (which there aren't on the trains themselves) only to find out Waverley has no bins. What's that all about?

Hope they get pumped by Fake Bedford in the derby.

You seriously don't think teams whose main aim is to develop players rather than win games does any harm at all?

Ernest Hemmingway bought the gun he used to kill himself from Abercrombie & Fitch.

Ch. Ronaldo is way out in front with 146 according to goal.com with Messi second on 108, but pretty sure that's ignoring the majority of players/leagues. Tavernier is closing in on Ronaldinho's 70 though.

Playoffs pending, I've still fingers crossed for a Montrose away day. Though aye, it's looking like a much more even league next season.

In "six pointer" terms it's a £180k game.

When you hear about an army salting the earth, they weren't putting salt in it to stop food from growing, as that would require a ridiculous amount in a time where salt was expensive, but salt was put in the ground in conjunction with the seeds of aggressive weeds which would overpower anything else planted. The salt was there to actually help things grow.

Aye, right. Give us a break.

So many horrific haircuts on display tonight from both sides. What is happening to society?

Not sure I'm putting words in their mouths as I purposefully used the exact same phrasing an Airdrie fan used. I think that's one of the strange things though. Most Airdrie fans would have predicted 8th-10th, but then they're calling out fans of other clubs who thought the exact same. Some Partick fans are probably worried about facing Airdrie in the playoffs, if that does happen, but I think most realise that if we didn't go up last year when we had a great team in spectacular form, then we're unlikely to reach the final this time round. So other than a few weeks of gloating for whoever prevails, I don't think we'll care that much. It's been an incredibly meh season.

One quarter of transplant-quality, donated kidneys in the USA are thrown in the bin. 17% of donor organs in the USA are first offered to patients who are already deceased. The contractor used to deliver organs in the USA is fifteen times more likely to lose or damage one in transit than an airline is to do the same to a suitcase.

Stirling are a group of fans who are happy after 10 years in L2 that they have finally made it back to the level they all felt they should have been operating at. Fine bunch of folk. Airdrie are a group of fans who are happy after 10 years in L1 that they have finally made it back to the level they all felt they should have been operating at, but also feel the need to run around the internet shouting about how wonderful they are and dredging up old posts for a few "told you so" put downs of slight criticism and the crime of failing to correctly predict an inherently unpredictable sport.

I guess this is the opposite of imposer syndrome, but I really am not comfortable with praise. When people give me heartfelt compliments at my job I feel I don't deserve them because I'm just doing the job I'm asked to do, treating people as I would wish to be treated, and that's not something which should be singled out for recognition. It got to the point where I quit my last job because I was getting so many good reviews or kudos from head office simply for being myself. It just felt wrong. There's no way of writing that without it coming across as bragging, but if you saw my paycheque then you'd know I've little to show off about.

Yet at the same time, you know if commentators didn't say Musonda plays for Ayr/Baccus plays for Booooo!/Whomever, during major tournaments that many fans of those clubs would be livid.

There have been studies done on this. From my recollection: There is a statistically significant home advantage across all sports. Travel distance is irrelevant (based on US baseball comparing eras when clubs went hundreds of miles in uncomfortable transport compared to modern private jets and hotel the night before). Clubs with running tracks have much less home advantage than ones without (German data, I think) indicating that it's crowd intimidation influencing refs that is the major cause of home advantage.

Some Airdrie fans are beginning to remind me of the Alloa lot we finally got rid of a few years back.

I wouldn't rule it out. It wasn't that long ago the Greek government was helping themselves to money from citizens' bank accounts and refusing to pay public sector workers.

Dumbarton v Stirling last season was forty pages of glorious rage before a ball was kicked and that's League 2. Surely the Premiership can do much better than that.
