    The Spartans chairman seems a lovely fella. What a job he's done there with his staff. It's wonderful to see. Scottish football needs shaken up. This restructuring allowing teams like Spartans to come up is a small step in the right direction. The leagues need to be expanded and made 20 team leagues or more and only playing one home and away per season. It's horrendous as it stands right through the leagues. Those in charge should be ashamed of themselves.

      Got to agree the championship and league 1 do more damage than good to Scottish football and the SPL need a few more spaces for good teams to get a chance to turn into SPL teams ,too many clubs go down and then struggle to hold on to players and be competitive in the lower league,not great for the 10 or so clubs always bouncing up and down now if you come bottom of a 20 team league then you are pants and deserve relegated.

      Scotland he can regularly be found on The PLZ Football show on You Tube that is a daily show last season Hugh was on the show on a
      Thursday the show is live on You Tube or watch it on catch up available globally.
      Hugh is a massive
      Celtic & Borussia Dortmund
      he is an expert on
      Scottish & German football he go's over when he can to
      Dortmund to watch
      Burrusia Dortmund with his
      Son.
      Scottish club football used to be miles better than it is now in all ways I remember when just about every club in
      The Premier League in Scotland had at least one genuinely talented player
      even clubs like Dundee &
      Hibernian used to have truly star players unlike now.
      I would say in Scotland we have some truly great Atmospheres in football the only ones that come close
      are Argentine football fans for passion.
      I personally watch lots of different Leagues from
      Scotland to South Korea
      & The K - League to
      The M.L.S. to
      The Alsvenskin in Sweeden.
      The best Atmospheres you will find in football ( Soccer)
      are The Old Firm games &
      The Argentine Super Clasicos in my view nothing comes remotely close to them.
      I am a big fan of
      North America Sports aswell in particular The N.F.L. have been since 1996 when I went to Super Bowl 30 with my Dad.
      I am a Steelers fan myself.

      I am Scottish with some
      Greek blood myself.
      They do call Edinburgh
      The Athens of The North
      because of some of

    Scotland has great names for their football teams. Saying this as a Welsh football fan where we have no interesting names. Scotland is better than having the boring united/city/town but great names like Spartans and Hibernian, Celtic. Hearts, Partick. Wish Aberdeen and Livingstone had more interesting names. Good luck to Spartans ... though, one can't help thinking that three top tear teams from Edinburgh, which is quite a small city, is spreading the jam thinly and allowing Celtic and Rangers to totally dominate the league. Thank God, they're kit isn't the boring all red/white kit either. Good work.
    Do Spartans appeal to a particular demographic in Edinburgh - location, class, political affiliation etc? Who are their support base and how do they expect to thrive?
