Steven McLean is the ref…. Fkn hell, an utter incompetent 

Ever since the Rangers home game when he was booed off the park for letting Rangers away with murder McLean has been at the heart of most decisions that have gone against us. Notably the cup tie at Aberdeen and the recent game at Tynecastle. He called both red cards and the penalty. No coincidence in my opinion. Collum having a wee laugh at our expense by appointing him for Saturday. Seems like we are still being punished for repeatedly calling out their incompetence.

Yes, just another example of the dire state of Scottish football. I'll be very surprised if there is no contoversial decision like a penalty or sending off to torpedo our chances. I fully expect Hearts to exploit his "incompetence"; they will be very  physical but curiously fragile when tackled themselves.

Wonder what the odds are on a Slattery red card?

When I moved to England in the late 1980s, it was almost impossible to find any coverage of Scottish football on TV, radio or in the papers. Every once in a while I got my hands on a Scottish Sunday newspaper and, even less often, if the weather was right in the evening, I could pick up Radio Scotland on medium wave.

When I moved to the US in the late 1990s it was, not surprisingly, even more difficult.

Fast forward to 2026, and not only is the Motherwell game being broadcast live here on Paramount+ tomorrow, the Arbroath v Dunfermline second leg is also on live today.

Technology is grand.
