Indeed, surely Kane is the bride and Dier the bridesmaid :lol:

although really it was a double wedding.

Shut up.

Leverkusen are seriously going to go the whole season unbeaten in all competitions.

Last kick of the game too!

They seem to have the knack for it this year

When Real Madrid do it I'm repulsed, when Bayer 04 do it I feel all gooey inside.

4 games away from achieving the greatest season in European club football history.

Go on Neverlusen.

49 games unbeaten is incredible. Especially as I can't imagine my team ever going even 4 games unbeaten.

Part of me thinks if Alonso does it, he might as well just retire! He's probably never going to top it.

How on earth does the Scottish league work?

They've played 35 games and there are 12 teams.

If they played against one another 3 times, it'd be a total of 33 games.

There are 3 games left, so it'll be a total of 38 games,

that gives 5 games extra? I see now they're doing bottom six and top six? so that would account for the 5 games, is that to make relegation battle fairer/more on par?

But surely if you finish comfortably 7th and win all 5 of your bottom 6 games, and the team who came 6th lost all five of their top 6 games, that would just be completely unfair for league position,

is it locked in after 33 games so 7th and 8th can't overtake 5th and 6th?

Why have i never noticed this before, why do they need so much football?

Some teams play each other 4 times a season.

Think I've answered my own question Hibernian currently have more points than Dundee but sit below them in seventh.

Still it seems odd because of home and away rules, should just merge some teams from the league below and make it each team plays home and away.

One thing: Money.

More gates or telly money for those who play one of the Old Firm games.

The SPL is a gooseberry fool league. I don't like how they set it up, and should expand to 20 teams but the majority of clubs there rather to play Celtic or Rangers 3-4 times.

As much as I am a Celtic supporter but the bloody league is dull. Nowadays I just focus on the national team.

Sacking Poch now would be such a Chelsea thing to do :lol:

they are on the verge of potentially getting 5th.
