Not looking good – at Kippen, Scotland
We need to mention the start of Greenock Morton's season so far! 🫣
Six competitive games of the season played, in the Premier Sports Cup and the Championship: zero wins secured and the goals scored in the games...none.
Is Ian Murray fighting for his job already this early on?!

Interesting Sportsound debate on the low numbers of young players getting game time in Scotland. Managers will always seek self preservation of their jobs so unless clubs are prepared voluntarily to reach agreement (and I think it has to be substantial….lets say a min of 3/4 young players guaranteed a set time in actual first team games, not just bench places) nothing will change radically to improve the quality. There are too many average foreign players in our league but only really radical proposals will change that.

Graham Murty - 🏴 U21 Manager
Murmurs are that the former Scotland International Right-Back will be given the vacant U21 Managerial role.
Former Rangers Caretaker worked with SFA's New Technical Director, Craig Mulholland, at Rangers Academy.
If true, thoughts?

The bloated corporate fest of the US World Cup with four quarter matches and pop concerts at half time, is just the natural extension of where football has been heading for years. And as long as fans keep subscribing to pay per view and indulging clubs by paying for ever higher season book and ticket prices it’ll continue. It’s an entertainment industry.

Top trolling from Belgium.
Belgium hammer the USA 4-1 in their own back yard and the players mock Donald Trump by doing his dance.

17 - Most shots on record (since 1966) at a single edition of the FIFA World Cup without creating a single chance for a teammate:
Cristiano Ronaldo, 17 (2026)
Alberto Garcia Aspe, 15 (1998)
Jerzy Gorgon, 13 (1974)
Katlego Mphela, 13 (2010)
Denis Cheryshev, 13 (2018)
Ego.

Good example of strategy in life. 90% positioning, 10% explosive execution when the timing is right. Activity without achievement is a false god of the modern world.

"Donald Trump believed that Gianni Infantino would do his bidding. And as the events of the past 48 hours have shown, he was not far wrong.
"At this stage, Fifa’s reputation is so rancid that its shamelessness no longer surprises. For the United States, this sordid red card episode is more damaging."

🇧🇪 Belgium head coach, Rudi Garcia, on his conversation with Folarin Balogun after the match:
🗣️ Garcia: "He came to talk to me. I really liked that. It is not his fault; he is not the one to blame - that's what I told him. I really appreciate the intention that he came to see me. I appreciate this player."

🚨🗣️ José Mourinho on FIFA overturning Folarin Balogun's red card following Donald Trump's intervention:
"Everyone is acting so shocked today. Everyone is crying about politics and Donald Trump making phone calls to Gianni Infantino to change the rules. But why are we surprised? The integrity of this tournament was thrown in the trash in the very first week.
All this started when FIFA let Lionel Messi escape a clear red card for a studs-up challenge. When you decide that the rules do not apply to the poster boy, you open the door for everyone else. If the referee's monitor can be ignored for Argentina's captain to protect the brand, why can't a suspension be ignored for the United States President?
Folarin Balogun gets a red card, Trump makes a call, and suddenly FIFA finds a magic 'Article 27' to let him play against Belgium. It is a circus. We are no longer watching a World Cup, we are watching a political reality show where the rulebook is just a suggestion based on who you are and who is watching."
A few years back I was gifted a @Ancestry DNA kit. Never shared any of the results with anyone apart from close family! However, it seems like an appropriate time to share that I am officially 5%Norwegian! #Godvan #TrueHistory – at Kippen, Scotland
