The switching of the Don's match with the arse cheeks match is a damning indictment of Scottish football and Scottish West coast society in general. It more or less tells us that the game and world revolves around those two teams. It tells us that despite lockdown rules, neither set of supporters from the Glasgow teams can be trusted to behave themselves on the day of a well publicised funeral. Sometimes, I hate Scotland and it's bending over to accommodate the "normality" of sectarianism.

I think it was more than that, and we've seen it in every game Sheerin has managed. It's clearly been forced on them and it's clear that they've been told that they have to do it every single time. In other words, their game intelligence is being overridden by management ideology, as it was very clear that they were doing it when they weren't comfortable doing so. It's our new version of game management, which was drilled into our players under McInnes, limiting their freedom to instinctively move forward with the ball. I'm really hoping that Glass ditches it immediately and allows players to think for themselves. It's a very immature form of management, especially when it leads to so many opportunities for the opponent.
