They're making £88 million in profit EVERY SINGLE DAY when people can't afford to heat their homes. Horrendous.

£29.5m per season for 60 matches. That's £492k per match.
Current deal is £25.7m per season (and rising for next season) for 48 matches. That's £535k per match.
Terrific work, guys.

Hi @rioferdy5, a few questions for you.
1) Did you "do" Italy?
2) Do we get a bank holiday?
3) Is football coming home?

I'm not one to go for fellow media, but what Sarah Smith did today pours mistrust on all of us. It does so much harm.
A clarification to 23k twitter followers as opposed to the millions on TV.
This is what creates such division in our country, regardless of your politics.
1. On the 6 o’clock news headline tonight I said that Alex Salmond had claimed the First Minister had ‘broken the ministerial code and that he thinks she should resign’. I would like to clarify that Mr Salmond did not say that the First Minister should resign.

A total audience of 290k watched Scotland beat Spain 2-0 last night 📺
The Viaplay coverage was excellent ✅️
But imagine the impact a match like that would have if it was shown on terrestrial TV like England and Wales get the luxury of?

There are far bigger problems in Scottish football, so now this non-issue is dealt with, we can maybe get to those-
1) A top flight with only 2 winners since 1985.
2) Playing each other 4 times a season - STILL.
3) Fairer £ distribution.
4) A proper play-off and pyrmiad system.
Premiership clubs have voted in favour of phasing out the use of artificial pitches in the SPFL top flight.

Some news...
I'm leaving the Capital FM Scotland Breakfast Show in a few weeks.
I'm so sad, but so many amazing people and memories. Records, awards and stripping more times than a fat Fifer should.
Most of all though, thank you so much for listening. Its been the best time

Cheers for the body shaming, Peter. I'm sure with some hard work I'll shed the belly no bother. I'll choose to be kind though and wish you success in learning to spell "chocolate" correctly, and growing back that receding hairline. Sore one that. All the best

As a Pars fan, I would love nothing better than to be laughing at our rivals. But this is such a kick in the stomach to the fans and many volunteers that keep clubs at our level going. It's not funny at all, it's another example of a club not listening to its fans. Which is shite

Also brilliant to @AmyJIrons where she should be, anchoring the Sportscene coverage today. I might be biased but she is a class act.

1 win away, against the bottom seeds, from securing the play off spot with a game to spare. It would be our best finish in a qualifying group for going on 2 decades.
International football brings out some of the worst takes.

So sad to hear this news. Jimmy remains my favourite ever Pars boss. The period we had under him was our most successful since the 60s, and it was an absolute joy going to see his teams play home and away. Memories I'll cherish forever. Rest easy Jimmy - what a man ❤️ 🏁
Everyone at #DAFC is hugely saddened to learn of the passing of former manager Jimmy Calderwood.

Someone gets sent free stuff from a small business, agrees to promote it, then doesn't, then gets pissy when she gets chased up, then posts screenshots for likes. "Small brands"? Talk about entitlement. The sooner "influencers" get in the bin, the better.

Bring forward the Premiership winter break, postpone all the leagues until the end of January. Extend the season. There's no World Cup in the summer, and an extra week or two won't make much difference.
Yes it's rotten, but surely the sensible option?

You're from Falkirk, Chris. If you, or a family member gets Covid-19, my gf and her colleagues would be treating you. Despite you being a total weapon, they would be pros, and treat you to the best of their ability cos "that's their job".
Hope you stay safe though mate 👍

If this was my club I would seething. Inviting a has-been irrelevance to a match while loyal season ticket holders can't get to see their team. They should be ashamed. Absolute tinpot behaviour.
We would like to apologise to our supporters who have been upset by the attendance of George Galloway at our game v Dundee. > qosfc.com/news-5315

If this happens and Raith get promoted above Falkirk by 0.04 of a point, would I laugh until I explode? Most likely, yes.
SPFL clubs are to vote on a resolution recommending the termination of the 2019/20 season in the Ladbrokes Championship, Ladbrokes League 1 and Ladbrokes League 2.

Great to see the firing and re-hiring of engineers on reduced terms, forcing into homes to fit pre-payment meters and jacking up everyone's energy bills whilst people freeze hasn't made a dent in their profits 👍
Sickening.
British Gas owner Centrica saw profits soar to more than £3bn in 2022, amid skyrocketing energy prices that sparked a cost of living crisis.

A shambles. Literally the opposite of what every fan in Scotland wants.
Just before everyone goes all in on Doncaster, he's the punching bag for this. Every single club behind this should be ashamed of themselves. Sheer and utter greed. As per.

For Kris Boyd to be playing in The Championship is really ridiculous. He could end up with about 85 goals next season.
