Some good sporting news this weekend - Scotland qualified for the final of the men`s World Curling Championship yesterday by beating Sweden in the QF and host nation, Canada, in the SF. They play Switzerland in the Final tonight starting at 10pm. It can be viewed on the BBC Sport website or BBC iPlayer.

Yeah, Scotland were the only team to beat them in the Round Robin stage and clinched the SF with two against the hammer in the 10th end.

Ridiculous that a Scottish world final isn`t on mainstream TV.. obviously must be women`s football on instead π

Outstanding achievement. STV lauding Stirling as the centre of the sport in Scotland - might not go down too well with the Bells Sport Centre folks in Perth .

Iβm in the PEAK regularly - think it has been selected due to Perth uncertain future.

The Bells Sports Centre has probably been on the uncertain future radar that long due to its ageing facilities.
Must be nearly 60 years old now ?
