Brilliant point, I often remember McCall being very negative in his press conferences for big games, more so games against Rangers. Remember a quote from him where he was basically asking the fans would we rather beat Rangers or Celtic if it meant we were 7th or 8th in the league.
Terry Butcher and Mark McGhee I remember talking down our chances in some of those games as well, that was despite picking up some wins in big games too.
There is a much more positive outlook at the club from those days , the attendances are also proof of this and long may it continue.
