We then cover some of the fallout from last weekend’s Old Firm derby match at Parkhead between Celtic and Rangers, including the contentious Alfredo Morelos disallowed goal. Should it have stood? We consider if Scottish football is using VAR technology in the right manner.
We also address the Scottish Championship title race with Dundee, Queen’s Park, Partick Thistle and Ayr United locked in a four-way battle to finish as league champions. We compare each team’s current form, including Kris Doolan’s start to life in management at Firhill and look ahead to this weekend’s round of fixtures.
Our weekly “my nan could score 20 goals a season in Scotland” punter of the week focuses on Tottenham Hotspur fan @seanzolio on Twitter who said: “Considering my nan could win up in Scotland definitely 100% do NOT take Ange. Don’t even think about it. Leave him alone.”
