Sevilla 2-0 up on the night and 4-2 on aggregate against Manchester United. Harry McGuire with his usual howler for the first.

I saw Brechin at Clach last week and did not think they looked like a league winning side. Having seen Spartans as well this season would be surprised if Brechin beat them in play off.

Pretty tame and generally boring first half at St James between Newcastle & Spurs 

Just the five goals for Newcastle which considering the first nine minutes is a little disappointing

Cove hold Dundee to take the championship to the final game and take themselves off the bottom. Truly magnificent shitfest, with Reynolds and Logan (at left back) taking game management to extremes not seen even in the McInnes days.

Logan took shitfesting to a new level last night. A truly masterful performance. Dundee not punished for failure to as Queens Park lost to Morton. Dundee just need to avoid defeat next Friday and they are up.

Aye, it's one hell of a final day in that league. A bit weird that it's on a Friday night, but good for neutrals. Accies and Cove battling for relegation, with Arbroath trying to avoid the playoff, five teams going for three playoff spots up the way and a league decider between Dundee and Queens Park. Not one of the ten teams really has the budget to maintain large squads, so injuries playing a crucial part in every team's season hence why nobody has been able to pull or drop away at respective ends. It's like the SPFL without the scum. Tremendous league.

Potential for a 4th Edinburgh Team to get into the league now that Spartans beat Brechin on Penalties
 

Next up - The mighty Albion Rovers

[Jute]

Thought Spartans would have too much for Brechin having seen both recently. Albion Rovers beat league winners yesterday and 2nd placed Dumbarton 5-1 recently so they look a better team than those who have finished bottom previously.

Good result for Forest in the battle to stay up.

Looking at their remaining fixtures, it is going to be tough.

More than a passing interest in this as allegedly we would be due cash as Parton the McKenna add ons if they stay in Premier League and if they don't he might be moved on with a sell on percentage due to us.

Falkirk 5-0 down in first half of league 1 play off. 
 

Annan 3-0 up on Dumbarton in league 1 play off. 

[Jute]

Alloa 1-0 up on Hamilton in other league 1 play off.

[Jute]

Man City making cunt of Champions league again. 1-0 down with a rocket from Vinicius Junior. 

[Jute]

Falkirk back into it. 5-2 Airdrie now and they are down to 10. 

[Jute]

De Bruyne with wonderful goal to make it 1-1.

Airdrie won 6-2 in the end last night and with Hamilton only losing 1-0 at Alloa there is still a chance of Lanarkshire derby for Championship place.

That'd be good. Coupled with the possibility of an Ayrshire one for the SPFL place would be a great advert for the playoffs - entirely ignored our broadcasters of course.

Atmosphere in Milan derby tonight is something else. 

[Jute]

Inter 2-0 up after 10 minutes.

[Jute]

VAR used in right way for a change to overturn penalty awarded to Inter for an obvious dive. 

[Jute]

Finished 2-0 which is a surprise given what a shambles Milan were in first half. Can’t see Milan getting 2 goal deficit back and expecting Inter to progress now.

I don't know, AC Milan's ground can be a tough place to travel to and can be a real leveller.
