"Don’t anybody start talking about morals, because we don’t have any in football" - the rolling Scottish football thread, season 2014/15

John Guidetti found guilty of offensively repeating something on Dutch telly which isn't offensive anyway.

Congratulations to Ronny Deila, Robbie Neilson, Jim Duffy and Darren Young, Twitter tells me this means that every division in the SPFL has been won by a manager in his first season at his club. Armageddon, etc.

btw, fuck Aberdeen for capitulating so meekly and doing me out of my biggest BTTS coupon of the season. I honestly thought they'd make more of a fight of it :-)

Congrats celtic ilxors! (do we have any morton or albion fans? To them too!)

Congrats to PFA manager of the year John Hughes on winning a league game for the first time in three months, against a team that has won two league games in three months.

St Mirren also making a mockery of our thread title:

Just seen Michael Stewart on the telly telling everyone to give him their details to try and get cheaper energy bills. Almost as weird as it would have been seeing him at Westminster.

Congrats to PFA manager of the year John Hughes

I heard that at the start of the season he was the favourite for the first manager to get sacked

He's done well imo

he's had that lady bit of luck and installed a siege mentality

Ian Murray in at St Mirren. Probably not a bad choice for them, up-and-coming manager, probably not cost much, knows the Championship.

i was in the same higher geography class as him for a month when he was in the year above me at school. so good luck to him!

^should have sold that to tattler

Greetings, Scottish football thread. I am in a pub full of English people being glad no-one recognises an Inverness accent lest they mistake me for someone who wants ICT to win dis ting.

One guy has just said that it's weird Rangers aren't in the final. Assume he wasn't watching Thursday night's hilarity.

Oh lol, ICT down to 10.

Bollocks. Though does that put St Johnstone in Europe? Well done Michael, if so...

It does indeed! First leg is the night before my sister's wedding, though, so I'm hoping we are at home or we get someone like UCD so I can get back easy.

Getting to experience a cup win is brilliant, if you support a "diddy" team winning it for the first time it's even better.

congrats ict - fairly entertaining final once it settled down

getting to hate this kids on the pitch lap of honour shite

Also congrats St J for EL qualification

It was quite entertaining, I just wasn't quite neutral enough to enjoy it.

Our worldwide scouting network seems to have a thing for Belgian centre hoffs who can't get a game for Man City.

After four minutes:

Cesc Fabregas slides a lovely pass through to Marouane Chamakh and Dedryck Boyata fouls him - the ref has got no choice but to send him off and it's 10 v 11.

The sheer delight on his face

saw this pop up a few times this week since David Weir went to Ibrox. All time.

Stjarnan, then. I've heard of them, which is more than can be said for Aberdeen's opponents. St Johnstone get a wee trip to Armenia. How can none of us draw nice easy wee trips down to Wales or something?

Better no' be seeing any of these:

partick thistle have a new david shrigley-designed mascot:

WTactualF is *that*?

It's awesome, that's what it is.

A+

twitter reaction is p good
https://twitter.com/ThistleTweet/status/612966534387007488

this is the best

Brilliant, though as someone pointed out on Twitter, what'll become of poor old Jaggy MacBee? Or do Partick have a history of cruelly tossing aside mascots as soon as a new sponsor comes along? What a cupboard of horrors that will become.

As for the Europa draw, the plus side of Saints drawing a team in Armenia with the away leg first is that it safely removes any clash with my sister's wedding the next day - had we got UCD I'd have been tempted to go over and risk getting the first flight back in the morning.

Probably time to move onto a new thread for 15/16 soon? Is Partick's mascot to be our naming inspiration?

@jaggymacbee going it alone

is there anything sadder than a mascot available on a bosman?

"I'm still young, I'm still ambitious and I want to play at as high a level as I possibly can."

Danny Wilson, March 2014.

he's since moved from the premier league to the championship twice

I've warmed to old Kingsley over the course of the day, mostly because of the hilarious twitter reaction of people refusing to take their kids to Firhill because they'll be traumatised for life.

Have you all seen the logo? This is surely not real.

http://ptfc.co.uk/img/2012/spiff/kingsford.jpg

twitter users not alone among the group of people who haven't bothered to look up who david shrigley is and what he's all about, bbc reporters are at it too http://www.bbc.co.uk/newsbeat/article/33223578/partick-thistles-kingsley-will-bring-shame-on-the-good-name-of-mascots

I saw that logo earlier, and it is wonderful. I can see why some Partick fans may not be so enamoured, it's easy for me to be into it given I support a different team. I almost wish it was Saints so I could witness the meltdown on We Are Perth.

I think there's a pretty earnest discussion in the Thistle thread on P&B about the blocked out spelling mistake in the logo. Clearly Shrigley is not as well known as some of us may have thought!

on the jags forum i read people seem to be enjoying the madness of it all ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I would *love* to see the meltdown if Celtic did this. It's bad enough when they remove a hoop from the strip.

Basically, I'm not a fan of Shrigley (if my mate who gave me a David Shrigley book for my last birthday there is lurking here, sorry...), but I like the madness of it all without particularly being a fan of the aesthetic. And now I think I've decided I want the entire thing to be a stunt and for Partick to come out next season with a dull old kit with the Kingsford official corporate logo* on their shirt and a bee hugging the kids and doing stupid dances, having owned the internet for a day, just to confuse everyone further.

* which I can't find. They're not very internetty, from what I can see.

tbf the discounted-from-fopp david shrigley book is the quick-fix gift that every kinda cool kinda young person from in or around glasgow has both purchased and received

Ha, I am neither young nor cool, but I suspect my friend has more than a passing knowledge of the Fopp discount shelves.

Kingsford official logo is dull, two lion heads with a crown above them.

Hotel wifi giving me as much as "wardrobe injury setback for Commons" but not letting me get details. Presumably up there with the decorating incident that cost Dean Sheils an eye.

I see we not only took over St Midden tonight but even replaced the club signage outside the "stadium".

He dropped a wardrobe on his foot.

I'm going to the game against Real Sociedad at the fake Celtic Park in Paisley. Shall Report Back.

We signed a right back. Exactly what we need as we only had Lustig, Matthews, Fisher and Ambrose to cover that position.

How are we for left backs again?
