Quite surprising even given Rangers troubles but it's actually the first final between them in over 20 years.

Meant to post before but an amazing achievement for Stenhousemuir, not so much that they won the League Two title but that they managed to go 140 years and this is their first ever league title. :)

They stuttered a bit towards the end but that's possibly down to being so far ahead, they had something like 12 wins in a row but also lost at home 6-1 to bottom club Clyde and since then have won one then drawn seven in row and only scored seven goals with Stranraer to play away on Saturday last game of the season.

Is it their first ever promotion?

No, they've gone up via the play offs (most recently 2018) at least a couple of times and come back down but never won the league before.

Dunc's Inverness beat Greenock Morton 3-1 at home but Queen's Park won as well, so they're in a 4 team relegation play-off now. W12, D11, L10 since he joined.

Their goal difference is crazy, they've the 4th best in the league.

The Scottish play off system's shite, you can go through all these games and at the end of it all nothing changes.

Finished 0-0 so Ferguson gets to take a draw back home, Alloa and Hamilton drew 2-2 in the other play off. Return games are 3pm on Saturday.

Sounds like Steven Naismith is doing a good job over there?

Comfortably 3rd which I assume is the best you can hope for in that league?

Needs to get his badges, as far as I know he's still not got his full coaching badges which will restrict him until he does. Done a great job there though.

It's amazing how much Rangers manage to fuck things up these days. Already blew the league but they can't be giving Celtic a two goal lead at Parkhead and now Lundstram's been sent off.

I guess it is a red card because of the way he's gone in but I have a bit of sympathy. Lundstram is making the tackle before the Celtic lad even plants his leg.

Inverness 0-0 still in the 2nd leg of the play off against Montrose. For an X striker Ferguson's struggling to get goals out this team.
