    Kelty 11/10 at Stirling. I like Stirling as a day out (especially at this time of year, when the bloody students aren't there) and I like them as a club... but I think their League Cup performances have made bookies price them up very cautiously. In terms of coupon price, I'd say they're the most over-rated team in the SPFL - but I'd've said that before they beat Stenny last week. This could be the last time Kelty go off at odds-against in a league game this season - though they're at Forfar next week, so they'll have to impress today to be odds-on there. Worth a bet to beat the Binos today.

    Aye. McBookie a standout 20/21 about Killie... That price may be a wee jibe at Killie and may put some fans off. Like Kamberi having #23 as his Rangers number. Some Gunt really ought to have #51. Parent firm BetVictor go 19/20. Everyone else is shorter. I'm still tempted by 5/6 Killie. However... After last week's resounding 0 for 3, I'm looking at an Ayr, Pars, Sons, Cove, Loons combination of some sort. All fairly comfortably odds against. Maybe ten £5 trebles and an acca. Might be a greedy mug and just go £10 x 5 for an any 4 from 5 perm

    Alloa 0, East Fife 1. Dumbarton 1, Airdrie 0. Falkirk 3, Peterhead 0. Montrose 3, Clyde 1. Queen's Park 1, Cove 2.

    Surely not? Not if there have only been a few objects thrown. Or a pagger. Or a few stabbings. We are talking about UEFA here. It's not as if there have been allegations of offensive banners, songs or shirt designs

    They've played 11 extra minutes in Cyprus. Still playing. Still 1-1.

    Dodgy geysers?

    Qarabag equalise in the 93rd minute. Allah must've appreciated that goat. Doubt it was served curried with rice & peas though.

    Following on from Larne beating Aarhus, to show the Danish League ain't that great... ....Dundalk are 2-1 up at Vitesse in added time, so the Eredivisie can't be as strong as many fear - though Vitesse were 10 points behind AZ last term. *EDIT* ...And there's the last-minute equaliser, just I hit the "post" button. 2-2

    Hibernians just gone 1-0 up in Riga.... ...and Dundalk 2-1 up at Vitesse, after being 1-0 down early.

    AEL Limassol just gone 1-0 v. Qarabag. Got to prefer Cyprus to a trip to a bunch of goat slaughterers ... or whatever it is they do to goats down there

    My bet for 33/1 Galatasaray to get 5 or more sort of looks a shrewd investment... but sort of not after 30 minutes.

    Very good. Reminded of the Jerry Sadowitz joke. "Nelson Mandela, what a c**t! Terry Waite? Ba$**rd! I dunno, you lend some people a fiver and you never see them again."

    I should hope so. I wouldn't watch an EPL game if I was paid to, but the idea that he's turned into Frank Haffey on a particularly bad day serms ridiculous. I doubt there are more than two better goalies in the Premiership. Potentially season-defining signing, in my view... but he'll need to be on form until some defenders arrive.

    Bookies found their balls at last... 48 hours after pricing-up several Dinamo Sovietski v. FC Novo Mafiosi type ties in Eastern Europe. It's a "pick 'em" first leg - which is a mite insulting: I thought Hibs would be favs for the home leg. Just about 17/10 each side, with the draw quite tight at 23/10. There are no "To Qualify" prices on Oddschecker and none on any bookie website I've looked at, which is dickless beyond belief.

    FT: Bohs 2, PAOK 1. Unfortunate late concession. Still, there's hope. I'd say Bohs will concede fewer in Greece than Sainties will in Istanbul. Dublin would be a good trip. A lot safer than Greece... Unless you resemble Brian Rattigan or Del Boy Hutch.

    2-0. Coote again. This is on.
  18. FortescueFotheringhamSmyth
    ...Not as funny as if ex-Arab Sam Stanton notches for Dundalk v. an Erse Cheek in a later round. We live in hope.
  19. FortescueFotheringhamSmyth
    Ex-Arab Ally Coote with the goal.
  20. FortescueFotheringhamSmyth
    Linfield celebrate by scoring immediately.
  21. FortescueFotheringhamSmyth
    PSV taken 30 minutes to go 3-0 up on Midtjylland. The Danes clearly not as bad as they looked v. Celtic.
  22. FortescueFotheringhamSmyth
    Not watching. Checked HT stats. Sounds as riveting & high class as a Swedish Cuisine v. Scottish Cuisine Masterchef encounter... though not one overseen by Gordon Ramsay in this case.

    Amazingly, the weather forecast for Istanbul on Thursday is 36c and unbroken sunshine. I can almost see Poula Fisch flipping the weather map over and letting out an astonished, "Scorchio!" I can also almost see Antonios Gubba concluding the Chanel #9 Sportos section with "Galatasaray chinquo, Agios Yohannespoli zero".☹ Maybe an appeal to UEFA could see the 2nd leg played somewhere with a temperature of 36f. That would even things up.

    There will be streams all over the place. ...and some radge will blame that on global warming.

    SkyBet go 4/1 St. Johnstone to qualify. Galatasaray 1/7. Bet365 a less pessimistic 11/4 Sainties, 1/4 Gala. For the 1st leg: 1/3 Gala, 9/2 draw, 11/1 St. Johnstone - Billy Hill alone with that standout price.
