I particularly like the "if you worked for me you would have been sacked" line aimed at Doncaster.

Stating the bleeding obvious, like the blanket ban on alcohol (cheers ugly sisters) is wrong.
 

As long as the Armegeddon brothers are in with the ugly sisters Scotish football will not go forward,
how they are still in jobs really baffles me, I hope Craig Whyte spills the beans on the lot of them, cant
see them not being implicated in one way or another, rotten to the core!

It's a very good article that raises the same points that always gets dismissed imo Lack of self belief, lack of sponsorship, lack of beverages and i also believe we should watch our football through the better weather too, nothing new but hopefully one day it will change when we have a real men in charge of Scottish Football who aren't afraid of change itself.

I feel like I have been saying this for ages. Our constant moaning and derision of our game just constantly undermines it along with septic the der hun previously always talking about moves away to the EPL. Things key to this are certain newspapers (daily mason, the sun) and broadcasters like Chick the Prick Young who just moan and moan. It's no wonder we don't have the simplist thing like a league sponsor because of it due to the endless media pish that comes streaming out. Plus not too many seem to be linking the recent revival and progress of the national team with our club game, as although many play down south the majority all came through at Scottish clubs and played in the league for a good few years.

In the short term there are a few quick fixes which may help tempt a few back like getting a pint in a ground and slightly better pricing for a start.
 

Is it just me or is Scottish football getting even better post Armageddon? I haven't seen a team shut up shop at Tannadice since Billy Reid Accies' and the odd Highland team, and every team now seems to want to play open football.

No sure about that Bugs, did you not see the St Johnstone game earlier this season, they were unbelievably negative.  JMAC even joked that Paton/Morris deliberately made a gaffe to draw them out leading to our first goal.
 

Good article. It is alarming when someone with no involvement with Scottish football can so quickly sum up some of the major issues that are not being addressed.

Agree with Bugs, overall post armageddon Scottish football is better. Pity it is not being recognised or nurtured to take it to the next level by the heads of the game.
