  4. Wee Rovers get the winpublished at 17:19 British Summer Time 31 July 2021

    The League 2 game at Cliftonhill is finally over, with Albion Rovers running out 2-0 winners against Edinburgh City.

    The referee was unable to continue after the interval, with just two officials overseeing the second half... One of the assistants took on the whistle, with just one line patrolled.

    Jim Goodwin might not be so happy after taking the lead twice and throwing on attacking players against 10 men, but both managers will be relatively pleased with how their teams performed

  7. Goals galore in the Championship!published at 17:09 British Summer Time 31 July 2021

    The second tier delivered an incredible 18 goals from four games.

    Morton and Dunfermline shared four, while Partick Thistle won a best of five against Queen of the South.

    Story of the day belongs to Hamilton Accies who were trailing 4-0 at Raith Rovers midway through the second half, only to come away with a share of the spoils.

    Arbroath let the side down, failing to find the net in a 1-0 defeat at home to Inverness Caley Thistle.

    Ayr United and Kilmarnock have got a lot to live up to when they meet on Monday.

    That Albion Rovers - Edinburgh City game is still going on and the visitors have just had a penalty saved, so it remains 2-0 to the Coatbridge side.

  12. FULL-TIME Dundee 2-2 St Mirrenpublished at 16:56 British Summer Time 31 July 2021

    The points are shared in a thoroughly entertaining game.

    We had four goals, the softest of penalties and a crazy sending off. Magic...

    Dundee were behind twice, so I suppose they will be the happier side.

  13. FULL-TIME Ross County 0-0 St Johnstonepublished at 16:52 British Summer Time 31 July 2021

    No goals in the end in Dingwall but it is St Johnstone who will be more disappointed than Ross County after that late Ali McCann penalty miss.

    Saints finished strongly after being second best for much of the first half and there's a lot for both these teams to work on.

    Ross County 0-0 St Johnstone

    Liam Craig, just on as a St Johnstone sub, cannot convert on the rebound after Stevie May's shot is kept out by Ross Laidlaw.

    This game is finally beginning to open up.

  18. Back under way at Cliftonhillpublished at 16:40 British Summer Time 31 July 2021

    We're hearing that Edinburgh City objected to a spare home player running the line, so they are going with one assistant referee in that delayed League 2 game...

    It's still 2-0 to Albion Rovers.

  20. CLOSE!published at 16:37 British Summer Time 31 July 2021

    Dundee 2-2 St Mirren

    St Mirren striker Curtis Main has missed a great chance with his head. It was a tremendous leap, but the ball flies over from about seven yards out.

    Scott Tanser then has an almost identical opportunity, but heads straight at the goalkeeper.
