@RickyMullen10 @iainbroon90 The Club seem surprised that people aren’t buying programmes. I’ve not bought a single programme this season because I’m going to a cash machine before the game to lift cash to get a programme. If they had portable card readers I would buy one every match. People don’t carry cash

[lyle watson @lylewatson2001]

@arjnmpm @tribenga @DannyJamieson Yep, the teams will not be able to fix anything as both want different out comes.

[lyle watson @lylewatson2001]

@StaunchiusP @ScotlandNT Get the point, but Morocco are a better team than Brazil at the moment so if Morocco game is winnable then the Brazil game even more so

[lyle watson @lylewatson2001]

@MotherwellFC The club must be looking at discontinuing the match day programme? I would buy one every match but didn’t buy a single one last season, I don’t carry cash and haven’t used cash in years. Years behind the times not having card readers.

@tribenga @DannyJamieson Have a look at @fmeetsdata, they crunch all the numbers and show what countries are likley to progress and what results are needed etc.

[lyle watson @lylewatson2001]

@tribenga @DannyJamieson The statisticians put -1 GD and 3 points at 97% chance of progressing. SO it is almost certain that Austria losing by 1 or 2 goals would still be enough to progress.

[lyle watson @lylewatson2001]

@DannyJamieson It is almost certain that Austria will still go through if they lose by 1 or 2 goals, we could see Austria try to throw the game, and we could see Algeria trying to not let that happen.

@Jamie_Millard @robjonescfc @GorgieOpinion @ScotlandSky He used his elbows to push himself into the ball for the header? He makes a clear and deliberate attempt to play the ball with his head as opposed to the ball just hitting off him.

@pieandbov @GoggsyNineNine You are not addressing how they are able to retrospectively look at a yellow card offence and turn it into a 2 game ban?

[lyle watson @lylewatson2001]

@scotlandscoeff1 We sold Theo Bair for £1.4M, and he was a free transfer to us so there is no amortised amount to take off that and would be classed fully as profit. So for Motherwell your figure is £1.4M too low

[lyle watson @lylewatson2001]

@scotlandscoeff1 For FFP regulations to check that clubs are spending sustainability, Revenue includes profit from player sales. Celtics figure appears to include this. The Motherwell figure is based on operational turnover.

@timbhoy1 @DerRohlSouness The first one has left Just with a gash down his leg where the studs come right down during the stamp, it’s halfway up the inside of his leg well above the ankle… and you say it’s not even a booking?

[lyle watson @lylewatson2001]

@pieandbov @SteelmenHistory If it stayed 11 vs 11, we would not have felt bad for a wrongful sending off and would not have stopped at 5 😃

[lyle watson @lylewatson2001]

@pieandbov @SteelmenHistory I am 100% against what he did.... However, 'material impact' on the game is debatable. We would still have made it 5-0 against 11 men 🤣🤣 VAR should have stepped in, and then King would not have been sent off and slats would have a yellow card, so VAR has totally failed.

[lyle watson @lylewatson2001]

@BobMacCallum1 @pieandbov Read the rules, if it was in the box, then it is not possible to be a red card as it's not serious foul play. Not in the box, not DOGSO, as he would not have an unobstructed attempt at goal, so as there is no Pen or Red card offence, VAR cannot give a free kick. VAR spot on.

[lyle watson @lylewatson2001]

@J593993 @MotherwellFC Jens is 2 steps ahead of everyone! We don’t want to have extra cup games to worry about we want everyone nice and fresh for the games that matter to win the league!

[lyle watson @lylewatson2001]

@ScotlandSky Makes a genuine attempt to play the ball, on the ground in control, contacts on the foot so it’s not high, just the way that the contact is on his standing leg that makes it look worse than it is.

[lyle watson @lylewatson2001]

@SteelmenNews Unless gate receipts get split, then capping away ticket prices would affect everyone other than Rangers, Celtic and Hearts. The gap in Scottish football gets bigger and less fans turn up to games. The only way it works is if home prices are capped aswell.

[lyle watson @lylewatson2001]

@Maeda38CFC @MidlandScotsman @sachatavolieri If we win every game we finish a guaranteed 2nd and need hearts to lose 2 games against other teams to win the league, Never going to happen, but Rangers and Celtic results wouldn’t matter in your scenario as if we won every game then we are not able to finish below the old firm.
