Yup. 1 shilling (1/-) became 5 'New Pence', hence 7 shillings & sixpence would be (7 x 5) + (5 ÷ 2) = 37.5p Do you remember the ditty? 🎶🎵🎶 "Decimalisation, Decimalise, Decimalisation, Will Change your life, Decimalisation, Decimalise, Decimalisation, Decimal Five. 🎶🎵🎶 Ma heid is fu' o' nonsense. 😆 For our younger readers:- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typo on my part and not proof reading before posting. I should have. As I was nearly 8 years old when decimalisation came in on the 15th February 1971. I paid for school dinners back then which came in at 1/6 a week 7 and a half pence. After decimalisation it was 9 new pence a week. When I gave my mum 1p back from a 2 Bob bit(10p), she thought I was trying to con her. Took alot to convince her I wasn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Footballfirst Posted April 14, 2022 Author Share Posted April 14, 2022 (edited) That was an unusual decision by VAR to disallow the goal. It was not for an accidental handball by the player providing an assist for a goal. I'm sure that rule was changed at the beginning of the season. (Craigan was talking out his arse as usual). I think that it was disallowed simply because there was a foul in the lead up to the goal. The decision being that Barasic's hand was in an unnatural position, so it was a referee's judgement call re a handball.

Touching the hand in lead up to goal is something different. Now only the goalscorer eg Alonso for Chelsea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont think so, I think the Champions league space that would have gone to second place goes to the next country in the co-efficent who would get it. Will help a lot with Scotland's European spots in 2023/24. Also as it stands (and if Rangers dont win the Europa League and finish 2nd) they are seeded in their Champions League qualification rounds.

Unless Villareal win the Champions League, Putin says sorry and walks out of Ukraine and Russian sides are reinstated. More chance of Maloney being the winning jokey in next years Grand National.

Can Celtic win the league, Villareal win the Champions League - making Celtic play a playoff, meanwhile Rangers win the Europa, right into the Champions League? That would actually be hilarious.

It should be good for Scottish football - reputation wise at least - for one of our country's teams to even just get to the final. But we all know Rangers fans are going to absolutely disgrace themselves and the country again if they make it that far. Same with Celtic, whether it's their songbook or their fans outside the stadium. Total embarrassment every time they travel. Can't see any good at all coming from either of the OF reaching a European final from a Hearts or Scottish football perspective.
