A Bitter Pill

Tension is in the air as we visit Pundit Club.

Hello

I see the Bloomhearts fans have taken well to Larry Shanks moving to Ibrix. His AI driven leaving statement hasn’t helped, especially when you contrast it with a still devastated Cammy Devlin. What I don’t really get is this new narrative of Shanks being a great leader, a leader Rangers need. As far as I could ever see he wasn’t that at Bloomhearts. He was a surly, huffy sort that threw his toys out the pram when things went against him. Maybe he was a commanding presence off the pitch. Pfff.


A bit lost at the weekend was Hearts SWPL triumph. Great credit to Eva Olid and her players but it was sad to hear that she’s leaving due to budget cuts rather than a desire to work elsewhere. That doesn’t augur well for the women’s game here. I’ll be keeping an eye and ear out for Level Playing Field thoughts on this one.

On the other side of the coin and given Hearts loss at Leith, a Rangers win at Glasgow City would give the Gers the title. So they got absolutely skudded 6-0. It was with a heavy heart and a lot of thinking to do that manager and part time pundit Leanne Crichton returned to Pundit Club…..
