Liverpool F.C. v. Newcastle United F.C. (Friday) The title race is down to two clubs and these are not the two clubs. A place in Europe, however, is still very much up for grabs and these two clubs are in the thick of the race for it. Separated by only a single point, Liverpool and [...]

Aberdeen F.C. v. Inverness Caledonian Thistle F.C. (Saturday) As I may have mentioned a few weeks ago I feel I have to start watching the bottom of the Scottish Premier League table as the club that finishes last could be the one that Ross County replaces in the top flight. Aberdeen are probably safe, but [...]

Bradford City A.F.C. v. Southend United F.C. (Friday) As recently as 2000 Bradford were a Premier League club, now they are only one spot above being relegated from league football. I’m not sure how you fill Valley Parade (25,000+) as a conference club, but the Bantams may find out. Southend are in a very different [...]

Ross County F.C. v. Ayr United F.C. (Saturday) At what point am I allowed to start freaking out about what’s going on with my club? County still have a nine point lead over second place Falkirk and no matter what happens in this match or the next one against Dundee, the Staggies will be in [...]

It occurred to me at 10:50am this morning that if Ross County are promoted to the Scottish Premier League at the end of this season (they are nine points clear at the top of the table at the moment and will thus be in first place at the midway point of the season no matter [...]

Scotland U16 v. England U16 (Friday) After the recent triumphant victory of Scotland’s U21 team over the Netherland’s U21 team I thought I’d go ahead and push my luck by previewing this “Victory Shield” match between Scotland and England. This tournament was first played in 1925, but it only became an annual event in 1990. [...]

Ross County F.C. v. Partick Thistle F.C. (Saturday) Five wins in a row and another week in first place- not much to complain about if you’re a Staggies supporter! There’s good news on the horizon too- joint top-scorer Steven Craig has this match and one more before his convoluted (and unfair!) red card suspension ends. [...]
