Can you mention Scottish and Football in the same sentence ?
I decided to watch it, painful stuff. It was like plucking pubes with tweezers

I've noticed a decline in interest in Scottish football this season, the liquidity has died dramatically.

Tonight, we have an important promotion/relegation play-off match between Dundee Utd & Hamilton. There's very little other football today to distract people, yet there's only £4300 matched so far :(
I'm just doing some end of season work and here is something interesting for you.

Average weekly wage in the Premier League was just short of £50k, in the Scottish Premiership, just under £3k.

Blimey, imagine what it would be without Celtic included?!

What about liquidity Peter, am I just imagining a major decline on Scottish markets?

It will probably be worse next year as Sky are paying the Scottish FA 27% less.

I think the money started to dry up when Rangers drifted into a dark hole.

I haven't really got much data on liquidity, but I'd imagine it's poor as I only capture higher liquidity events and that doesn't seem to include Scottish footy.

Is there anything to play for in the Roma match? 1.07/1.08 seems short.

Runners-Up gives automatic entry into CL group stages, whereas 3rd sends them into the qualifiers.

That's a fairly big incentive, so Roma still need 3pts to guarantee 2nd place

Roma have to win to guarantee the direct Champ League spot, if they fail to win then Napoli (away to Sampdoria) can leap frog them with a win.

Fantastic day in Italy if you like backing goals

8 games - every single match had 'Both Teams to Score' and 'Over 2.5 Goals'

Total - 40 goals, including 2 matches 'Over 6.5'
