Knowing your limitations

1188

Rumour has it that prior to their play-off second leg against Hamilton Accies last season Terry Butcher spoke to his Hibs players about their prospective lap of honour.  It was fatal.  Two goals up from the first leg away from home, he thought the job was done.  Hibs were relegated despite having fourth highest wages in the division.

Scottish football is more competitive, healthier, than most would give it credit for.  As yesterday’s Scottish Cup Final demonstrated.  Two towns, emptied of most able bodied adults, urged their team onto what would be an historic win, whichever way it went.

John Hughes is a very modest man.  He speaks highly of his peers and considers himself someone who does the obvious things thoroughly.  Maybe knowing your limitations is the first step to achieving greatness.  I was delighted for him.  His predecessor at Inverness, Terry Butcher, flattered to deceive.

    It should be remembered that McCall stated at the start of the season, his main aim was to ensure Motherwell stayed in the SPL. Ooooooh I can feel the goosebumps from here. JOB DONE. Hahahahahahaha.

    Wonder if the “glib and shameless liar” with the “off the radar moral compass” has a plan to deal with this scenario?? HH

    Stuart McCall ‘s remit at the start of the season was to keep Motherwell in the SPL ….I believe he can consider himself to have achieved what was required of him ….

    Here’s hoping for admin / liquidation for the 3 year old club, the ruling body should have stuck to the rules and admitted a team worthy of a place in spfl
