The Scottish Premiership 2017/18 Review

Celtic win the league with plenty to spare. Aberdeen secure the bridesmaid spot. Silverware remains a stranger to Rangers. The national side is going nowhere fast. That was Scottish football 2017/18, and come to think about it, the half dozen or so seasons before it.
Well, to be fair it certainly has a familiar ring to it, but the campaign just ended had a bit more to it than that. Here’s the edited highlights, 6 top talking points:
I recently managed to attend two football matches in a week, something that hasn't happened in far too long. On the Wednesday evening I was lucky enough to witness Bristol City scoring 4 goals, as they knocked a sorry Crystal Palace out of the League (cough, Carabao) Cup. And then on the Saturday, I made a 1st visit to the New Lawn stadium, to watch Forest Green Rovers play Morecambe FC. How did my experience of the only vegan club in the English Football League go? Well let's find out...
Now the summer break's long gone, opportunity knocks for experiencing some more 1st time visits to football grounds. And with the season only a couple of weeks old, my very own stag weekend meant that a trip to Prenton Park would herald an early 'football away day', to witness Tranmere Rovers vs Sutton United. You may ask why my friends and I had ended up opting for an afternoon of action from the Vanarama National League, and that would be a fair question!
