Gordon Strachan: Ex-Scotland boss says too many clubs are not professional enough

Former Scotland boss Gordon Strachan believes too many of the country's senior clubs are not professional enough.

Of the 42 member sides of the SPFL, 22 employ players on a full-time basis, while the remaining 20 are part-time.

Strachan thinks the lack of fully professional sides is holding the game back.

"If you want to be a professional club, show it," he told the BBC's Scottish football podcast.

"Have full-time employees, have full-time players, have an academy, do the whole lot. Just don't play at being a football team and expect us to look after you.

"When you talk about clubs coming into the league, what are they bringing in? Two hundred people per week to a game, is that really professional football?

"The teams in the bottom two leagues at the moment, in general, how many players have they produced over the last 14 years?"

Bump to exactly three months later: Dundee under technical director, erm, Gordon Strachan punt their entire paid academy coaching staff:

You hate to see it happen.

Strachan truly is an absolute cretin who has no place in Scottish football.

A pish talking bitter old moron with archaic ideas that are hilariously incompatible with the reality of our game.

He could be funny, though.

Reporter: "Gordon, can I have as quick word?"

Strachan: "Aye, velocity."

That was years ago. He said one amusing thing. He's been a surly dick since, and over the last few years has been coming out with more and more absolute garbage that is increasingly detached from reality.

Well, even members of the SPFL board who started this whole thing said it was "unfair". So that world.

At least one of your players kent the reason you got relegated. https://www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/sport/football/hearts/hearts-ace-craig-halkett-scotland-ambition-building-centre-back-relationship-mihai-popescu-and-getting-flyer-3005061

“It was difficult,” he admitted. “I came, signed for a massive club. I don't think anyone, even myself, expected us to be where we were.

"Obviously that's on us as players, our shoulders. It was our performances, our games, not winning many points put us in that position so it was difficult, a hard one to take.

Craig Halkett being honest about it and not making up some deluded excuse about it being everyone bar Hearts at fault  for being shite and getting relegated.

Did he mention how many games there were to go?

Literally no-one thinks Hearts weren't shite. We were, with Halkett being one of the shitest in the last few games. The punishment for being shite after 30 games though isn't demotion during an economic crisis. Or it shouldn't be. 

Anyhow, let's end the league now. Hearts promoted, Dundee and St Johnstone relegated. Seems fair. There's a pandemic on after all. Much more important things to worry about than football. 8 games to go or 26 what's the difference? We should have a vote.
