Scottish Football 2023/24

I wonder when was the last fixture in which both big teams lost?

It's very rare.

Thats exactly why i am wondering but idk where to check.

I remember it happening once some seasons ago, I think I posted on here.

2018 apparently, from the BBC

"With Rangers' unbeaten home record under Philippe Clement shattered by Motherwell, it marks the first time the Old Firm have both lost on the same weekend since February 2018."

So not that long after all. I was expecting something like 15+ years. Still an interesting stat though to know.

That's still a lot. A little over 6 years ago, 38 game seasons (34 where they don't play each other) so it took over 200 MDs for it to happen the last time.

EDIT: Actually, COVID will have cut that down somewhat, but still a lot.

Aberdeen see off Kilmarnock 3-1 in the first Scottish Cup quarter final. I watched the game, was a pretty comfortable win, you wouldn't know they'd been struggling so much under Warnock. Big win for them.

Didn't think Colin would stay there for long!

Didn't think I'd end up watching any of Celtic vs Livingston, that had a routine win written all over it, but it was 2-2 at '75, so I put it on. Celtic won 4-2 with a late goal in a Maeda hat trick then Kyogo adding the 4th right at the end to join Aberdeen in the semis.

[Lorric]

Rangers beat Hibernian 0-2. Hibernian got 2 reds.

[Lorric]

Hearts beat Morton 0-1.

Semis:

Aberdeen vs Celtic
Rangers vs Hearts.

Least desired combination.

[Lorric]

The Challenge Cup stays in Scotland as Airdrieonians beat TNS 1-2 in the final.

[Lorric]

Wins for Rangers and Celtic keep the status quo of Celtic at the top by 1pt but Rangers with a game in hand. The two meet at Ibrox in a week on Sunday...

The Wednesday after that, Rangers will play the game in hand at Dundee.

[Michael S Collins]

Thistle will avoid relegation this year, which looked doubtful in the summer there.

[Greyn]

Great start by Rangers, first goal conceded in less than 60 seconds.
