Five away wins. An inspired poster got them all. Unfortunately he had a couple of others which were less inspired.

Taken over by Cadbury so you’re all right.

That table is a pleasant sight.
I look at LiveScore a lot. They show league tables in a box beside the scores. For years it’s not been nice to look at. Now Rangers are top, the default table is the reserve league (Accies in pole) You can still see the main table but you have to click and scroll.

After United, Liverpool and Arsenal, who in England would sell more shirts than Newcastle? Chelsea maybe?

Good team on the park and that’s a formidable bench. They could all have been in the first selection and caused neither surprise nor anxiety.

But they have only ever argued that we are a new company, ergo new club..... the owner becomes an irrelevance
Was that the official celtic line? I thought it was just their fellow-travellers, running-dogs, hangers-on and diocesan letters.

Thanks Uilleam, I suspected as much. The whole "separate entity" claim without actually using said words - subtle, less antagonistic way of saying they are a different company.... would that not mean any trophies won prior to 1997 are now part of a previous entities history ?
They’ll deploy the club/owner defence to that one.

Thanks. I was going to say volte face but then thought it seemed churlish and 'smart-arshish' to actually point it out. However, as you infer, 'vault' is actually more appropriate since Lille on Thursday may actually bury their hopes for this season. My only fear is that they may actually sack Lenny and install, say, Lambert i.e. someone with more tactical acumen.
The treachery of predictive text, alex. Many’s a time one of my literary gems has been torpedoed by the little bugger in the ipad.

It may explain his vault face
A vault face Stewart may well have but it’s safe to say the vault is pretty empty.
Fall out the predictive text, 26th.

The table shows a huge gap between 4th and 5th places.

A dedicated stats thread is an excellent idea for the learned soccer scientists. I’m an actual-baw-in-the net stat man. It’s an age thing. I’ll look in, though, for a bit of extra bewilderment.

Which club?
A club like no other, obviously..

If it goes ahead up to five clubs might leave the EPL. The remainder might not want a full twenty but looking at Championship clubs it would be surprising if Rangers and possibly another Scottish team weren’t invited to the new UKL.

I like Woy, but that whole approach to the game (don't lose, just defend for 90 minutes and hope you steal a goal) is just anathema to me - same with Bruce, Dyche and Moyes.
Unwatchable but understandable if your job is not to win the league but to avoid relegation.
The earliest exponents of this art were Stein at Dunfermline and Waddell at Kilmarnock at least when playing against Rangers and the second force in football at the time, Hearts.

A princely footballer. He with the oddly named Babbington and Houseman unlocked defences at lightning speed.
