I remember when we signed John McQuillan i read Luggy in the paper the next day refer to him as not the World's best defender but a 'steady Eddie',i coulda fucking wept.

One of the worst players to have played for Utd.

Believe it or not, John McQuillan landscaped my dads backies, it was a fucking massive job, he dug a huge amount of it out himself, slabbed and chuckied it. Did a braw job tae.  Good to see he found his true calling eventually.
 

Sieb, why do you think that Rob McKinnon at Motherwell only got one or two Scotland caps?  I always thought he was a brilliant attacking left back.

Sieb as a proud Dutchman how do you feel about the best young Dutch players moving abroad to clubs in England, Spain, Germany etc?  Will another Dutch team ever win the Champions League again?

Did Tommy McLean get his team selection wrong for the League Cup Final?  As well as Celtic played in the final we looked beaten before the game even started that day.

Scott Smith out on loan to Forfar. Butcher obviously moved ahead of him in the pecking order.

Russell has been doing well playing wide for Derby but Strachan obviously doesn't see him as being able to track back enough at international level and he obviously doesn't see him as either a number 10 (not creative enough?) or a an out and out striker (he likes someone bigger or who can really bustle defenders).  McCormack is clearly out of favour for the same reasons.  Its a bit pish for him, he should deffo be in there and for me if Scotland were to switch to 4-4-2 there is nobody better at linking up with a big man and running in behind than Johann.

Craig Conway seems to be out of favour as well now despite him getting a regular game for Blackburn. 

Bet you any money no-neck Forrest goes straight back into the squad as soon as he is fit though despite the fact that he is a) a one-trick pony b) only good once in a blue moon for Celtic c) a crock and d) never had a good game for Scotland.

Turdo.

Offered 3 games seemingly.  Good start but should be banned sin die.

A right Hertz bastard but ultimately done a fantastic job as manager

The team we gave the most doing's to under his stewardship was,ironically,Hearts.

Used to gub them for fun.mind Barry Robson scoring two hat-tricks against them in 4-1 wins (same season,i think?).

Lost the most important one right enough when we only needed a draw to confirm Europa qualification and got uncharachteristically gubbed.
 

I was at that game.  We were fucking shite.  He decided to play David Robertson right midfield in front of Sean Dillon and Lee Wallace had a field day. He then subbied Dillo after 20 mins when we were already 2-0 down. Wilkie and Dodds also had complete mare's and flogged the 2nd or third goals between them. Pretty sure he played Goodie and Sandaza up front together which sounded good on paper but Sandaza spent the whole game on his arse moaning at the ref due to Marius 'Octopus Arms' Zaliukis hauling him down every chance he got (and getting away with it) before being hooked at half time.  This was back in the Craig Conway FFS days when he couldn't beat a man or cross the ball. Bad day.
 

She looks junked up to fuck.  Count me in

Me too



 

Gave us our pride back.  A very intimidating man to speak to.  I'm 6'1 and he is at least a couple of inches taller than me and when I spoke to him after a prizegiving I was shitting myself.  He has this piercing gaze that appears to just look right through you.  Just what we needed at the time.  I loved watching us run the legs off teams when he was manager.  However, his post split record was pish for some reason.
