  1. Even a Paisley reject can occasionally be right. Most of us were saying that in January. Just to be clear, celtic can’t be champions, only winners of a curtailed competition.
  2. SG is preparing something more draconian.
  3. The usual Stubbsian philosophy ..... except ..... except “Plus, if anything, if the season had continued, I could only see the gap between the two clubs becoming even wider. “For me, it’s not even up for discussion because Celtic would have finished even further ahead. “Rangers had been more or less admitting that their season was over before the lockdown even happened and they were only ever playing for second place this year. “Last December when Rangers bossed Celtic at Parkhead we thought we had a genuine title race but then the wheels fell off for them. They have been really poor since the winter break. “Sometimes you look outside for excuses but it’s better to look at home for them. They only have themselves to blame for that.“ I might be able to argue that but I doubt if I would persuade many.
  4. They didn’t want him to tell Deloitte where to look for the skeletons.
  5. A marvellous sight but there’s a wide desert to cross before we get there.
  6. Unbeatable. Well worth the wait #compo.
  7. I’m out of breath trying to keep up. I’ll skip the Jerries and the Ice Cream Sellers and here’s the World XI. These old geezers will pass the living daylights out of you. Zoff (Juve/Italy) Maldini (the elder) (AC/Italy) Santa Maria (Real/Spain) Facchetti (Inter/Italy) Domenghini (Inter/Italy) Mazzola (AC/Italy) Grillo (AC/Italy) Puskas (Real/Hungary/Spain Gento (Real/Spain) Schiaffino (AC/Uruguay/Spain) di Stefano (Real/Argentina/ Spain))

    Cup Finals

    I walked out of the radio commentary before halftime and invaded the garden.
  9. I know. I had the same feeling feeling about Wayne Biggins in a couple of other selections. Petta scorched Ricksen in one game at cp all the same.
  10. Van der Sar Melchoit, van Dijk, Stam, Vlaar Overmars, Gullit, Davids, Gio, Bergkamp, van Persie.

    Cup Finals

    Another Board where I look in from time to time has good footage of the 62 (St Mirren) and 64 (Dundee) Cup Finals The Dundee match was a classic partly because of the quality of the Dundee team but the Saints game was pretty good too. Buddies had some not bad players and Beck and George McLean and as usual a ‘keeper playing a blinder. Other points of note. Ian McMillan should have been called Ian Magician. Ronnie McKinnon aged 21 was a colossus of calm. Harry Davis and Jimmy Millar had more football skill in them than I remember. Willie Henderson was unplayable. 62 was the first and 64 the third of a three in a row. In the intervening 63 final the opposition was not of the same calibre as the other two. Easy. Easy.
  12. Any of the three selections would stroll any league in the world.
  13. The EDM has seven signatures. There is a petition floating about which may well have 30,000 signatures but I fear neither EDM nor petition will have any effect.
  14. Gribz is an Aiberdeen loon. Should know better right enough.
  15. Barthez Gallas, Blanc, Desailly Vierra, Kanté Makalele, Ginola Pires Cantona. Henry Thought I’d try one of these new fangled lineups. Makes it easier to pick midfielders and defenders. Reduces the choice up front, though. Anelka’s gone off in a huff.
  16. Played very well for Aberdeen winning a league medal before (thankfully) moving to Fulham. Blistering pace, good crosser and scored s few. I was looking for a left winger and had forgotten Big Shoes. Still pick Leggatt.
  17. Aye. Doesn’t have to be a good team, right enough.
  18. Bill Brown (‘Spurs) Eddie Macreadie (Chelsea), Richard Gough (‘Spurs) Frank McLintock, Ian Ure (Arsenal) Dave McKay (‘Spurs) Charlie Cooke, (Chelsea) John White, Gordon Durie, Alan Gilzean (‘Spurs) Graham Leggatt (Fulham) Leggatt was a cracking good outside right but I think he could manage outside left. He would have had a good number of caps but for Alex Scott, Willie Henderson and some chap Johnstone.
  19. Trautmann (City) Ivanovic (Chelsea) Stamm, Vidic (United) Eduardo Robledo (Newcastle United) De Bruyne, Silva (City) Kanté (Chelsea) Henry (Arsenal) Jorge Robledo (Newcastle United) Aguerro (City) There’s goals in them tharr forwards.
