The pictures of Harry Kane, Jordan Henderson, Jack Grealish and the rest of the England World Cup flops training at Murray Park must have given patriotic bears a warm glow, deflecting slightly from the SPFL table and Europa League fixture list.
For the small minority capable of rational thought there might be another thought- where are Micky Beale’s squad training this week?
After losing to PSV Eindhoven and Celtic they need to be spending every available minute on the training ground.
With barely any internationalists in his squad Beale has the perfect opportunity to get some extra work in with his players but it seems that they have been given an extended break nine matches into the new season.
New environment. New focus.

Only John Souttar, Ryan Jack, Jose Cifuentes, Borna Barisic and Nico Raskin are away on international duty which still leaves enough stars to arrange two full sided teams for training sessions.
All of the strikers are available such as Danilo, Cyriel Dessers, Sam Lammers, Kemar Roofe and Rabbi Matondo.
All sorts of sessions could be arranged to help them find the net to relieve the goalscoring burden from James Tavernier.
Speaking of Tav, he could be working on his understanding with Jack Butland and Connor Goldson, after losing five goals to PSV they will be in the spotlight next week at home to Real Betis.
Instead it seems like a craving for attention, some cheap PR pictures of England players has taken priority leaving players to work out on their own, enjoy some Spanish sunshine or to sharpen up on the Playstation.
The Sevco players had been seen in the gym down in Jamaica Street this weekend, while the real football players took over Auchinhowie.
Giving England (well probably charging them a fortune for it) has not gone down well with rank and file supporters of Celtic, Aberdeen, Inverness Caley Thistle, Hibernian and Hearts around these shores fo sure…
But Sevco need the money, it’s England training at their Murray Park no less so makes them feel relevant and ‘big’ in the football world, and makes them feel Uber British…
And of course they don’t care what fans of other teams think as ‘No one likes them, they don’t care’ –
They are certainly very very correct in the ‘no one likes them’ bit for sure !
Sevco are famous for this…Celtic’s European opponents were offered training facilities ….They are a shower of shit….Oh…has Beale been sacked yet….?…It is tea-time after all.
They are actually trolling that they are helping out the English team against Scotland and taking the king’s shilling whilst doing it!!.
Just what fucking universe of the expanse have I stumbled into here?
