Four semis idea is a bit thick

-

Love definitely wasn’t in the air when I returned home from a trip to Paris, a surprise 50th birthday treat for my beautiful wife, Pauline. The announceme­nt that football bosses had decided to schedule two Betfred Cup semi-finals between Aberdeen and Rangers and Celtic and Hearts on the same day at Hampden Park sparked outrage.

100,000 fans descending on Glasgow – what could possibly go wrong?

The potential for violence is enormous.

I reckon the city will turn into Fortress Glasgow, with many businesses not bothering to open their doors for fear of trouble. Why are the SPFL and TV broadcaste­rs, lacking basic common sense?

It’s a good question but I won’t hold my breath waiting for an

answer.
