From my experience of Canada if I had to pick a place Id chose Quebec City (possibly Canada's answer to Falkirk). Why is Falkirk more appealing to ANYONE on this planet than Vancouver As everyone is unique there could be an endless list of answers but some suggestions could be what Rico said plus Its much cheaper It's midway between two reasonable sized cities so you have good options for work with reasonable commmute, close to where major concerts happen, close to two international airports, good rail links, close to the Trossachs Weather is more predictable As its a smaller place the crime levels are lower Donald Trump doesnt have a hotel there Less likely to encouter a bear or wolf should you decide to go for a walk in the countryside You might have no desire at all to go anywhere near Canada. You might be a Falkirk Fan Anyway the new manager bounce doesnt seem to be happening for old Mr Rennie

Caley Thistle back to the top of the Championship after beating Killie Not been keeping tabs on this but seems the top 5 is pretty much sewn up. Spectacular is Arbroath ended up in the SPFL especially if it was at the expense of Kilmarnock HOME AWAY POS.

So where is the racist element of this? The angles ive seen (SPFL youtube channel) it looks a like a blatant dive by Ryan Kent. Sportsound commentary team (except Liam McLeod) seemed adamant it was a 'stonewaller' and that includes one who had a TV replay, but then the question was asked as to why John Beaton took an age to award it and it was pointed out if there is doubt you cannot give such a decision

Cynic in me suggests Apple thinks 7 years is too long to wait to get more of your money. Are you sure the white line is on the laptop and not on your actual retinas?

Derby just been docked another 9 points for breaching accounting rules. Also agreed to dismiss their appeal against the earlier 12 point deduction. After 17 games they are now bottom of the league on -3points.

update following wales 5-1 win its now this Seeded Serbia (Portugal (A)) Switzerland (Bulgaria (H)) Sweden (Spain (A)) Croatia (Russia (H)) Poland (Hungrary (H)) Wales (Belgium (H)) Unseeded Scotland (Denmark (H)) Turkey (Montenegro (A)) Finland (France (H)) North Macedonia (Iceland (H)) Czech Republic (Estonia (H)) Austria (Nations league) Plus I think ive jumped the gun saying beating denmark guarantees a seeded spot

As it currently stands (assuming Wales dont suddenly collapse) these are the teams in the playoffs along with their finals fixtures) Seeded Serbia (Portugal (A)) Switzerland (Bulgaria (H)) Sweden (Spain (A)) Croatia (Russia (H)) Poland (Hungrary (H)) Scotland (Denmark (H)) Unseeded Wales (Belgium (H)) Turkey (Montenegro (A)) Finland (France (H)) North Macedonia (Iceland (H)) Czech Republic (Estonia (H)) Austria (Nations league) Serbia, Switzerland, Sweden, Croatia & Poland can still qualify automatically and are guaranteed a playoff spot. If they all do Portugal, Spain, Italy, Russia, & England will take the playoff spots. Wales & the Czech republic are guaranteed a playoff spot due to nations league but can still claim a seeded spot. Finland need to match or better Ukraine's result to keep their spot likewise North Macedonia need to match Romania's result. Unlikely either of them will end up seeded. Scotland beat the Danes and a seeded place is guaranteed. Anything else means relying on Belgium, Estonia, & France doing Clarke & Co a favour.
