I walked to the paper shop on Tuesday morning and had a look at the front of this week's Racing & Football Outlook and noticed that I had to buy it.
I always buy this paper during the season but usually stop getting it over the summer. I don't like horse racing that much so I don't see the need in purchasing the newspaper until a few weeks before the season.
I had pencilled in Tuesday August 3rd as the day I would pick up another copy as they usually have a pullout to the upcoming season in the Championship and the leagues below it.
This week's issue had a guide to the Scottish leagues so I thought I would buy it in order to get an angle on the Scottish leagues should I decide to bet on them in my season bet.
The front page of this guide has 'Everything points towards it being Celtic's season', the second page furthers this by recommending a bet on Celtic to win the Scottish Premier League and then - in the middle - it has a write up about all the teams with projections for the upcoming season and they have Glasgow Rangers down as winners.
I know there are different writers with opposing theories but this is ridiculous.
I could have saved £1.80 and threw the money in the air and used heads-or-tails to decide who would win the league.
It would have generated a definitive result.
And I would still have £1.80 to waste on something else.
