Good morning Voornaam It's Friday, its going to be (a bit) sunny, and there is a lot going on. What a month June is going to be, with the Eras Tour coming to Edinburgh this weekend, to the Euros kicking off next weekend. But worry not, we have you completely covered. First up - our dedicated sports team have put together a list of Scotland's greatest football players - the top 50 of the last 50 years, ranked and rated. Sports writer Alan Pattullo explains: "This is not an easy exercise by any stretch of the imagination. There have been so many immensely talented football players to pull on the blue shirt of Scotland since 1974. Undoubtedly, this list will spark debate because many viewers are defined by their era, what they look for in a footballer and what their memories are of national team. "But that is the beauty of collating such a list – it is designed to get people thinking, to spark debate and recollections of some wonderful players to represent this country." Read the list right here. Next up - Taylor Swift. Did you really think we wouldn't mention her? She is bringing her global phenomenon to Edinburgh, and tonight will see the first Eras Tour Concert hit Murrayfield. For those going, or escorting excited Swifties, we're running a blog through out the day to provide updates of weather, queuing, traffic, the best pubs near Murrayfield... all the essential information. Follow along here. Next up, former First Minister Nicola Sturgeon has talked about her new memoir, and how she felt writing it was very therapeutic. She said: ""It’s been very therapeutic. Some people will love it, there’s one or two people who will hate it. I’m naming no names, but you can work it out for yourself. I love books, I love reading. Writers have always been my rock stars. I love interviewing them at festivals. "Writing, or trying to write, a book has given me even more respect for writers. I didn’t expect it to be easy, but it’s been a lot harder than I thought it would be. The first draft is done now, although it’s almost double the length that the book needs to be." Read more here.
