🏴 Is The EPL Overrated? 🏴
We played another game of ‘Overrated Or Underrated’ on the latest episode - tackling topics like #GTA NPC Lyndon Dykes, playing out from the back, and the English Premier League.
We all know the #EPL is flush with cash, with clubs generating revenues in the billions every season, but is it overrated?
Some supporters think the league has become too corporate, too predictable, and even boring. And while most #ScottishPremiership supporters get frustrated by their club’s limitations in the transfer market, it seems like most wouldn’t want to see the #SPFL become more similar to the #PremierLeague.
What’s your view on the EPL? Best in the world, or soulless and dull? Let us know in the comments!

🏴 The Ageing Scotland Squad 🏴
When #SteveClarke named his #ScotlandNT squad for the recent friendlies against Japan and the Ivory Coast, nearly half of the players were 30 or older.
The likes of John McGinn, Andy Robertson, and Lyndon Dykes all fall into that bracket, with Kieran Tierney, John Souttar, and Scott McTominay not far behind.
The average age of the latest squad was 28.2 years, which is slightly higher than the oldest squads at the 2022 #WorldCup - making some supporters concerned we’ll struggle when key players retire.
There’s no doubt we’ve got exceptional young players, like Lennon Miller and Ben Gannon-Doak, but should we be putting more emphasis on building up the next generation of talent now?
Let us know what you think, and which young players you’d like to see given a chance, in the comments!
