Looks like the SPL is done

Been a really entertaining game.

Celtic have been comfortably the better team, but Rangers have a slim advantage if it stays like this.

Beat Dundee and they're 2 points clear.
 
Entertaining game albeit that the standard of the football has been more Northern League than Premier League at times.

I've spent a lot of the game wondering whether the advertising boards in the corners are at an angle deliberately to reduce the space and stop Celtic's effectiveness at corners or whether they're always like that.

Rangers haven't made an accurate pass all match.

If Rangers win their game in hand then it's down to 1 point.

The daft split means that today's result won't be decisive anyway, they're playing each other again.

Another daft thing about the split is one team might end up playing more home games than away games, to avoid playing another team 3 times at home and only once away.

The problem is a 12 team league.
They used to have 10 teams and play each other 4 times, 36 games.
When they increased to 12 teams that would mean 44 games, which they thought was too many.
Wusses.

Although it does often result in a lot of '6 pointers' after the split, at both ends.

The teams do occasionally vote on continuing with the split and it always seems to be 7-5 in favour.
 
Both have the league in their own hands because Celtic still have Rangers at Celtic Park.

Yesterday showed how poor the Scottish league is though.

These are by far the two best teams in Scotland, and yet some of the defending was Sunday League standard.

However, the poor defending did make for an entertaining game.
