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.

    So the sevco submarine sinks. At least there’s 20000 leagues under there. Maybe they can win one of them.

    I think there’s money to be made in bringing out a box set of the Sevco v Motherwell playoff games :-))

    League Reconstruction already being talked about by SFA/SPL/SFL

     

    as you know Bhoys and Ghirls ANY league title win is tainted if a strong Ra**ers isn’t there to justify anyone winning it.

     

    The powers that be will stop at nothing to help these vile creatures, all around the globe people know they should be shut down and everything related to them sold to pay off what they owe…..everyone, that is, except Scottish courts and football authorities.

     

     

    Hail, Hail…

    I believe Cammy Bell finished it for them by punching the ball into his own net?

    Well they cannae be expecting to run before they can walk. They are only 3 years old.

     

    Maybe one day they will be up there challenging with the Hamiltons and the Thistles of this world, but just not today!!
