EXTRA TIME FROM AROUND THE GROUNDS
Aunty’s zoomers
St Mirren might have got a pre-match boost when they saw Celtic’s line-up on the BBC, who initially had James Forrest and Scott Brown at centre-back and Greg Taylor up front.
In at the deep end
Most football stars opt for the Rab C Nesbitt look when they play on with a head injury but Marseille’s Dario Benedetto went for the Duncan Goodhew instead, pulling on a snazzy swimming cap to protect his bonce in the 2-2 draw with Amiens on Friday night.
Roo want some?
I’m not sure if mascots are tested for doping but WADA should get a steroid sample from the North Melbourne Kangaroo. Even Partick’s Kinglsey wouldn’t be mad enough to fight him.
Eagle eyed scary
Just days after Eric Dier confronted a gobby Spurs fan, Watford’s Andre Gray also took to the stands as he waded into Crystal Palace’s section at Selhurst Park. This story had a happier ending though as Gray apologised for his ballooned shot smacking into an Eagles fan’s face and even posed for a selfie with her.
No flower of Scotland
Dynamo Moscow stars handed out flowers to fans on the eve of International Women’s Day, a chivalrous gesture that unfortunately wasn’t matched by players in the SPFL Premiership. Female supporters up here weren’t even given any leftover Tunnock’s Caramel Wafers from last month’s Challenge Cup semi-finals.
