The Stickler #5 - SPFL Premiership Season Preview
Where I visit each team and have a chat with the managers
Are you ready for this?
Thanks to everyone who has subscribed to The Stickler so far. Today’s post is the first to be partly behind the paywall. Everybody deserves to be paid for the work they do and I’m no different. Drawing cartoons is how I try to make a living and I hope you’ll find that full access to The Stickler and everything that comes with that will be really good value for money at £5 a month (or £50 for the year).
A salute to two sporting legends
Andy Murray’s fairytale Olympics ended last night. Thanks for everything Andy you big bionic bastard, at least we’ll see less of Judy on the BBC now.
Congratulations to Simone Biles on winning the overall artistic gymnastics gold. Her floor routine was jaw dropping.
The SPFL is back!
My predictions aren’t worth a sook (although Jambos love to bookmark them) but I’ll drop them at some point over the weekend.
Now if you want serious analysis of the expected fortunes of each team you’ve clearly come to the wrong place. Maybe 442 or When Saturday Comes can sort you out or a Scottish Football podcast or something. Don’t try Sportsound though unless you want to drown in mince.
I’ve spent my time going around the country and skulking about looking for the inside scoop you won’t find anywhere else. Here’s how it went in purely alphabetical order.
Aberdeen
Me and Jimmy Thelin really hit it off from the start. I’m 100% on board with his glorious three year plan.
I also had time for a quick word with Bojan while some unfit lad skulked about.
Celtic
Celtic are basically the same as last year except a different goalie. Brendan himself is the X factor. But why the reluctance to strengthen the team for the challenges ahead?
