  1. Looks like parts of Glasgow were left in one  almighty mess after the green brigade celebrations on Saturday I wonder if the Glasgow council will be after Celtic to pick up the bill like the did with Rangers after our last title win .

  2. I did notice a bit more speed in our play yesterday maybe down to playing some of the younger players and another thing I wouldn’t hesitate to play young Fraser at left back in the final the only way to improve the youngsters is to play them after all the faint heart never won the fair maiden

    Very Eric Idle, though I do tend to agree in the main. However I can't for the life of me see where our "footballing structure" is superior to theirs as ours is basically rip it up and start again, rinse, repeat, rinse, repeat....

     

    At one stage Beale was drifting into Mike Bassett territory. 

     

    Indeed they have had it easy but mainly because we've alowed it to be so.

     

     

     

    I don’t see any structure it’s been a hunger or bust set up for years now I wonder if we’ve paid all these soft loans back

    I've been reading Jonathan Wilson's book, The Names Heard Long Ago.

     

    The history of modern football was born in the coffee houses of Budapest. 

     

    It was inspired by the short passing game in Scotland, which was brought to MTK Budapest by Englishman Jimmy Hogan and Scot John Tait Robertson (who played for Rangers).

     

    Hungarian coaches like Imre Hirschl, Árpád Weisz, Bela Guttmann and Gusztáv Sebes took their tactical ideas to Italy, Germany, Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay, across Europe and the Americas.

     

    The greatest example of these tactical ideas was the golden team, but what many thought was the beginning of an era was actually the end of over 50 years of development.
