He's Gigi f'n Donnarumma. He's been Milan's number one since he was 16. Of course he's bastardin' good 🤦♂️

Even more impressive than speaking fluent German, is speaking fluent German while still somehow making it sound really, really Dundonian. Charleston is going nowhere.

Liam Henderson cruising through broadcast pressers in fluent Italian never gets old. Love to see a Scot embrace a new country, language, culture, style of football.
Now Dave Cormack has just confirmed that Neil Doncaster told Aberdeen their vote would no longer matter prior to them submitting it. Yep, totally normal. Nothing wrong with this voting process at all. No siree bob.
Craig Levein's press conference today reminded me of Dyatlov in Chernobyl. Steadfastly maintaining that the core hasn't exploded as all hell breaks loose outside.
'We are six points off fourth place. I don’t consider that to be a huge problem.'
3.6? Not good, not terrible.
Might start living my life in the style of a Hibs club statement.

Yes, when will the man who subsequently got the Wigan job and is now in a lucrative position in the upper echelons of the Scottish FA ever get that second chance? The struggle is real.
"He must be asking himself why it’s Micky Mellon wearing MM on the manager's tracksuit and not him."
Malky Mackay deserves a second chance but I wonder if he's ever going to get one, says Kris Boyd
At the risk of stumbling on to a landmine, there *are* 50,000 tickets available for the upcoming Scotland Women's National Team game at Hampden.
When one section sells out, the next opens. Not entirely sure what the Scottish FA are being criticised for, here.
He slagged off the league, alienated players, lost to relegation rivals and lasted less than four months, but still, there goes the best damn employee a Highland football club ever had
Newly-promoted; 18 players out 13 in; horrible start vs Falkirk
So, for Dundee United to be heading into the first international break unbeaten in the league, 3 shutouts on the spin, 3rd in the table and in the last 8 of the Premier Sports Cup: superb 👌

report from Arbroath below 👇
Not to overstate the lightning storm currently taking place over Edinburgh, but Hibs winning three games in a row appears to have brought about the Apocalypse.
Some of the accent-shaming going on in the Quote RTs is absolute wee guy behaviour
Retaining his broad accent during all his travels - coaching elite footballers fluently in his second language along the way - is absolutely class ✌️
Kevin Nisbet has travelled to the Hibernian Training Centre for transfer talks and medical checks.
A six-figure fee (but lower than what Hibs had rejected in January) has been agreed between with Dunfermline.
Player desperate to make the move so could be done by tomorrow.
🆕 What an afternoon in Paisley for Dundee United. That second half arguably the best they have played under Tam Courts -- vibrant, attacking, creative.

And there are still 39 days until a ball is kicked in the Premiership. Some really swift, proactive business by Dundee United. Speaks to excellent forward-planning. Promising.
Jack Walton on his way. Will be another loan. Just formalities to be tied up.
Was always Jim Goodwin's first choice for an option between the sticks in the Premiership, and he's got him. Player pushed for return too.

Harry Maguire now getting praised for his 'honesty' after diving, because he realised it was such a comically shit dive that he wouldn't get a penalty. That is a special kind of stupid.
a) What a really weird tweet, given most Hearts fans were very fond of Uche, while cognisant of his limitations and b) I'm pretty sure Uche will cringe seeing this, given his rapport with most Hearts fans, especially after his goals vs Hibs.

Away from events at Palmerston, it is impossible to overstate how impressive this win is. A fourth game in nine days, away to top budget in the league, largely reliant on the same core players.
What a manager John McGlynn is.
