I would love to start reading some KEYS for soccer matches.It was tremendous. I’ll blog about it tomorrow. Got to give the Rangers fans credit, they brought it.

That is probably not going to happen, as I do not know anything about soccer.I would love to start reading some KEYS for soccer matches.
I hope this doesn't come across the wrong way, but the reason that the KEYS were amazing wasn't baseball analysis.That is probably not going to happen, as I do not know anything about soccer.
Nevertheless, here are my impressions.
Glad you had fun Jose. I enjoyed reading your blog. Just one thing, it's true neither Servette or Rangers are going to win the Champions League, but, it's not just about the chance to play the big guns...it's the prize money and TV money. Rangers got £5M just for winning last nights tie. Any team getting to the Group Stages can expect to pocket around £40M. For clubs like Rangers and Servette and PSV - in fact, for most teams, this is a huge chunk of their turnover. It means they can buy better players, hang on to the good players they have with improved contracts. In short, the money is massive.That is probably not going to happen, as I do not know anything about soccer.

Very good point, and one that was made to me last night after I’d had five beers.Glad you had fun Jose. I enjoyed reading your blog.

Yes. we have the John McGinn derby to look forward to.Both Edinburgh teams go through today. Good day for Scottish fitba.
I dunno what the answer is for Hibs. All Scottish teams need coaches that can improve players. They need scouting systems that can make the most of the talent that is in the area as well as farther afield. I've watched more of Hibs lately that usual - i usually never watch Hibs. it's not been pretty.Lee Johnson has been sacked by Hibernian after five defeats in nine games this season.
Johnson's backroom team members Jamie McAllister and Adam Owen have also departed Easter Road and former captain David Gray becomes caretaker boss.
Hibs, beaten 3-2 at home by Livingston on Saturday, have lost their opening three Scottish Premiership matches.
Robbing Peter to pay Paul as far as creating another managerless club in the SPL but if I was Hibs I’d seriously consider the St Mirren manager. Probably land up hiring Lennon again. Watched Hibs plenty, zero consistency, they have a team capable of playing better than they are. Aston Villa game won’t be pretty unless they call off the dogs and play a B team.https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/66633584

it’s kind of a weird situation ; Scotland are playing England in a friendly at exactly the same time as the Norway-Georgia game. So Scotland could be celebrating regardless of their own game if that other game ends in a draw. Although I’ve seen enough of Georgia to think Norway will beat them. It’s hard to keep the cyborg from doing cyborgish things.Or if Georgia and Norway draw this week then Scotland are in.
My “ wild guess “ is that’s a given. But for me, to show real intent, they don’t lose in Spain next month and they beat both Georgia and Norway. That’s a high bar, and I have no idea what the Scotland manager will do with dead rubber games if they qualify with 2-3 games in hand. Does he bring in fresh blood like Ben Doak, Elliot Anderson etc. Strange days indeed for Scottish fans. It’s nice not being in the international wilderness anymore… having said that, the Euros are now much easier to qualify for. They need to qualify for the World Cup for wounds to heal.One of Georgia or Norway has to win out to catch Scotland. Both have to play Spain, I think Scotland are in.
“Friendly”Scotland v England kicking off in 5 min on FS2 here in the States, it's a friendly to honor the 150th anniversary of the rivalry.
Yeah.. this week the Scottish teams took a battering as far as coefficients. On the plus side, the Rangers players did take some time off to visit an orphanage whilst on Cyprus. So credit where it’s due.Well that was a nut punch.
@fletcherpost if you know were there is a video of the Hearts player catching the pie, taking a bite and throwing it back in the crowd might be, it would be great if you could post it. I couldn't find it
Sadly, not available in my location (which must be an anti-pie eating one)
That's a shame, cos it's a lovely move. He catches, bites and throws the pie back with such fluency - for a big guy.Still blocked. The USA must not like Scottish football.
I don’t blame the US. VAR is even more of a farce up in Scotland. I’ve pretty much tuned out. I will however be looking forward to June 14th.Still blocked. The USA must not like Scottish football.
I’m guessing because rest of players were staring at their boots not wanting the responsibility.Why did Joe Hart take the 5th penalty?
