Craig Brown was the reserve team coach I think. I don't remember Billy Campbell as an assistant manager but he stayed in the Knowetop area and used to drink at the Cricket Club in Dalziel Estate,. A nice guy and always happy to chat about the 'Well, I'm sorry to hear of his passing.
Interesting watching that, I noticed that Ward had the MFC script on his top and the outfield players had the club crest on theirs.
Well, I found it interesting at least.
Will 2 at home and 3 away not give us 19 home and away over the season?
We have (will have) played:
Rangers, Falkirk, Hibs, Kilmarnock, Aberdeen & Dundee Utd at home times two, (12 games) and,
Dundee, Celtic, Hearts, Livingstone & St. Mirren once (5 games) = 17 home, 16 away.
Not sure whether to be happy or not tonight. We could, and arguably should, have taken three points, but to get the late equaliser with ten men almost feels like a win. We were not at our best today but still gave them an absolute lesson in football.
As for McLean! I have watched the BBC highlights and have no complaint about the red card, but how the f*** did Soutar get away with that challenge on Just, and why the f*** did the BBC completely ignore it in the highlights.
For anyone with a statistical leaning:
Over the last 10 completed seasons, the maximum number of points achieved by the team that finished 4th was 67 (twice, 17-18 & 18-19); the minimum was 48 (21-22), and the average is 57.2. I hope you will all sleep better now.
Given that Hibs and Falkirk are 5 & 7 pts behind respectively, I reckon 60 will be needed (but that is just a guess).
Priestman for me, but there were several others that would be hard to argue against, Just, Fadinger, Longello & McGinn were all outstanding. Said (AKA Captain Chaos) is an absolute pleasure to watch. McColm looked like he could slot right into our system, I'm looking forward to seeing more from him between now and May.
