The State of Scottish Football
|
Having finished work, and settling down to read all the days sport on the lap top, I happened across the following result.
Boreham Wood 0-0 Dunfermline (Dunfermline win 6-5 on pens).
My first instinct was that this was a friendly whilst the International games were ongoing this weekend. Then I read a little closer, and its actually the Scottish Challenge Cup. Im not sure if its the Scots version of the League (Carabao) Cup, Johnstone Paint Trophy or whatever.
Regardless of what competition this is, over the last 20 or so years Dunfermline have been regulars in the Scottish Premiership, so to only sneak past an English 6th tier team on pens really does hit home at just how poor their teams are.

The fact that (cunt of a club) Celtic rule supreme up there tells you all you need to know about how shit the standard is up there.

They have a series of play off and only the worst team is considered bad enough to go into the scottish cup. I think.

Almost as bad as a Premier league team getting knocked out of the Europa Cup, not once but TWICE by some tin pot bunch of part timers from Romania.
Oh!..........

Erm, is everyone alright then that for the last 46 years I have firmly believed Boreham Wood to be in Hertfordshire while it clearly is actually somewhere in Ross and Cromarty??

Astra weren't part-timers and were competitive in their own top tier (winning it in 2015-6).
Why make our double defeat to them even worse?
