It’s an impressive return but Edinburgh city play in Scot division 2. If the Scottish Prem is broadly equivalent in standards to L2/conference (possibly minus Celtic and Rangers) then their league 2 is what, Unibond prem or some such?


It's basically like Sunday League level. Kinda easy to be a goal machine when you're up against the likes of the mighty Stirling Albion.

So what level does that make the Swedish leagues that people think we're gonna sign players from (and the ones we have)?

Give me a player from a sh1t level with desire and a great goal return over a player with a goodishreturn just after a pay check

Osman Kakay from QPR is the latest name dreamt up by the worst source on Twitter.im sure he just puts a load of names into a hat and then just pulls one out to match with any old club

Well, the Swedish Allsvenskan is of a palpably higher standard than all of the leagues in Scotland with the possible exception of Celtic and Rangers, where it might well be broadly equivalent. The team finishing top make the Champs league and the second and third placed teams the Europa league.

That said, it's a good point about Andy Robertson and no reason why there might not be a gem or two hidden away, but stats need a context. Generally speaking, I'd say we are looking for players who can cut it in the Scottish Prem at the very least, and probably better than that.

They have two players, with the same name and exactly the same record...maybe we better sign both  


Memories of Serge Makofo’s mistaken signing come flooding back

Some Peterborough fans seem surprised Matt Stevens (Striker 21) has been released...just saying

FFS, this article more or less highlights why this is a story derived by sad internet muppets making up stories on the off chance it happens and they can claim to be ‘ITK’:

https://www.grimsbytelegraph.co.uk/sport/inside-story-jolleys-time-sweden-1356123

As per every pre-season that has gone before, most normal fans won’t have heard of 90% of those who we eventually sign. That’s not necessarily a bad thing either - who wants to admit to knowing who the fúck Podge Amond was four years ago?
