How Scotland, and other parts of the world, became entranced by the fairytale only for the reality of sport's essential brutality to hit them square between the eyes at Celtic Park on denouement day. If there is a non-Glasgow team capable of roughing up the big two as Heart of Midlothian did repeatedly last season then we're in for a wild ride. If this league campaign goes to the final three minutes on the final day, if the domestic football story to beat all domestic football stories is in touching distance as the campaign swings for home next spring then we'll be blessed.
Motherwell have signed midfielder Alex Lowry on a season-long loan from Wycombe Wanderers.

"We see this as a great opportunity for Alex and the club," Motherwell manager Alfred Johansson told club media.
Winger Joe Davies has joined Swansea City following his exit from League One side Peterborough United. Milton Keynes-born Davies spent three months on loan at Northern Premier League Division One outfit AFC Rushden and Diamonds last season, making 12 appearances and scoring one goal.

While it is still early in pre-season, Cardiff will hope for an encouraging evening at the Turner's Cross Stadium having lost 6-0 to Danish side FC Midtjylland in their opening friendly on Saturday.
Jermain Defoe urged Dan Neil to join Rangers before the midfielder signed a three-year contract at Ibrox.

"It's a special football club to be honest," Defoe told Sky Sports.
