Watched game in Lewis last night. Not many free seats but young couple from West Lothian invited me to sit at their table. Random acts of kindness are great, especially when on the receiving end. My thanks.

This nice pub in Benalmadena is owned by a Swede who played in same team as Henrick Larrson. Only for 6 months and very modest.Had a very pleasant afternoon there this afternoon. Not a sports bar but very convivial. Next door to Lidl in Benalmadena off main road. Worth a visit.

Jota's dummy. The last player I saw do that in same part of the pitch was Jinky v Dundee Utd. The Utd player went off the park. His team mates were laughing as well as Celtic players and the game stopped as ref franticly waved play on.

Perhaps, just perhaps, because we have not been a threat out wide, the midfield have been asked to do too much? However with Jota, Hassan and an on form Yang appearing the solution in terms of midfield might be out wide? That mean Duran in the center and Hogh as a sub but with competition from Mheuka. After 20 mins with misplaced passes or failure with first touch I thought this is not a title winning team but at the end I thought differently. Not certainly but possible. Hearts next will give us a clue. Last week. Yup Hearts are giving us a clue and Jota still to come on.

Did anyone watching the game hear what NL said at the end in response to a question revolving around Hogh and Durran about who should get the CF position?

Based on Celtic's newly published figures, the UEFA 70% rule would appear to allow around £89m of annual squad costs for 2025/26. There is not yet enough detail in the preliminary accounts to establish exactly how much of that Celtic actually used. That will be a follow up altho.

the accounts in the past have not separated admin staff costs from identifiable player squad cost as Rangers accs do (why Celtic do not is a question for shareholders) so a bit of estimating will be involved.

Scottish football's VAR crisis won't fix itself. We’re plagued by long delays & camera blind spots, but standard VAR upgrades (SAOT) cost £1.2m/year. Smaller SPFL clubs will always vote it down because they need their UEFA Sustainability cash for youth academies. #SPFL #VAR

A weighted split (40% each for Celtic/Rangers, 20% for Hearts) means £480k each for the Old Firm and £240k for Hearts. For Glasgow, it's a drop in the ocean of UEFA revenue. For Hearts, it’s a massive statement of intent as Scotland's true "third force."

By giving the SPFL a private commercial guarantee to fund SAOT, they bypass the voting deadlock. Smaller clubs keep their academy cash, the Big Three protect their player assets for Europe, and we finally get elite tech. Time for the big hitters to foot the bill?
