Ladies and Gentlemen, the wait is over. League football is back across Scotland, with every team in the SFL kicking off Saturday. Scratch that – every team has fixtures.

Livingston double relegation shuffles the SFL
By: Ian Rose | 1 Comment
It just gets worse and worse for Livingston Football Club. On the edge of administration for months, the cash-strapped club can’t pay its staff, its players, or its rent. The rest of the First Division was understandably worried about Livvie keeping its commitment to play all of its league fixtures, and now, the [...]

It might not be making the cover of any major football magazines anytime soon, but the fact is that this past weekend, the first league title of the year in Britain, probably in Europe, was decided.

Category: Scottish LeagueStephen Kenny sacked by Dunfermline
By: Ian Rose | No Comments
It had to happen eventually, and some, myself included, would say it should have happened before today. Stephen Kenny was sacked today as manager of Dunfermline Athletic.
