Did a thing on @RBLeipzig ahead of tomorrow’s match against @RangersFC

[The Nine @BBCScotNine]

It's one of the biggest games involving a Scottish club in over a decade - Rangers against RB Leipzig in the Europa League #UEL semi-finals.

Ahead of Thursday's kick-off, #TheNine's @Paul__Barnes takes a tour around Leipzig - a rejuvenated city that's home to a club on the rise

[Paul Barnes @Paul__Barnes]

A bizarre experience but an important win for Scotland and a prized momento for a young fan who travelled all the way to Zalaegerszeg to watch the action through a metal gate.

[Kevin Doyle @kdoyle1984]

Thanks to @BBCSportScot and @Paul__Barnes. Proud always of @AthleticClub 🔴⚪️

Back op 9 days ago. Ridiculous. #crunch

[Paul Barnes @Paul__Barnes]

Alexa, play Gala.

Quang Nam v The Cong Viettel in Vietnam’s top flight. £2 ticket, former @queensparkfc defender Stephen Eze in the winning side, and not a VAR in sight.

[Paul Barnes @Paul__Barnes]

Hope VAR will be an experiment consigned to history like Golden Goal. Goal Line Technology should remain as it’s conclusiveness is indisputable. Everything else is subjective & relies on slow mo replays which distort actuality. It also kills the magic of live football #worldcup

"Would I have the same drive and intensity to manage? I don’t think that’ll leave me until I’m on another planet."

@Paul__Barnes talks to Martin O’Neill about his experiences as Celtic manager, Rangers boss Michael Beale, and whether he would ever return to management.

2/ After the game, in the Chairman’s Suite, then Hull manager Steve Bruce walks in. “Mr Chairman, what did you think of that?” “Sorry Steve, I am with my friends. I will speak with you tomorrow.” We still laugh about it @david_reed @chrissiddall1 @JackThornton03 @acarrera1987

1/ Sad news about former @HullCity owner Assem Allam. Struck up an unlikely friendship after interviewing him in 2012. He later invited me to his box for a game against Man City. He was very kind, caring and generous with his time.

[Paul Barnes @Paul__Barnes]

Hugely enjoyable fortnight @birminghamcg22 Big crowds, brilliant weather, very well organised and a truly iconic sporting moment from @EilishMccolgan ☀️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🥇

[Paul Barnes @Paul__Barnes]

@smitharrytv I’m very sorry for your loss. Harry was an enormously popular colleague in the STV newsroom. An excellent journalist and a lovely man.

Innovative flag replacement at Royal Barshaw this morning 🤣⛳️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[The Nine @BBCScotNine]

"Let nobody pretend this is in the wider interests of the game."
@CowdenbeathFC chairman Donald Findlay describes @spfl league reconstruction as a 'quick fix' to deal with difficult circumstances for some clubs. He says there will always be winners and losers. #TheNine

[The Nine @BBCScotNine]

"I'm disappointed @RangersFC have made allegations and not produced the evidence."
Donald Findlay told #TheNine if wrongdoing has been committed by the @spfl, his former club should make the evidence public so that it can be dealt with.

[The Nine @BBCScotNine]

It has been a huge day in Scottish football, without a single ball being kicked.

The @spfl clubs have voted to back a resolution that immediately ends three of the four leagues.

@Paul__Barnes and @BBCchrismclaug break it all down for us.

#TheNine

[Paul Barnes @Paul__Barnes]

@AndyNewportPA @NextGoalWins Haha you loved it really 😆 #Howzat

[Paul Barnes @Paul__Barnes]

@Albynpark Congratulations and best wishes for your retirement David. Always enjoyed your company at Ormiston and Easter Road.

[Paul Barnes @Paul__Barnes]

Dad just went to @saintmirrenfc to buy tickets for Celtic match. Told he couldn't as not a ST holder and isn't registered on StM website. He asked to register. "Not until after the Celtic game." Club are literally turning away customers. Good old Scottish football. Omnishambles.

Was a privilege to be in Yokohama last night. The strength, kindness and subservience of the Japanese people in coping with human tragedy while rallying behind their team was something to behold. Worthy winners on & off the pitch.
