Spent today in Valetta trying desperately to avoid checking my phone, and caving every 10 minutes or so. Great feeling at full time.
i have been trying to convince myself since about mid-February that even if we didn’t win another game then this would have been one of the best seasons I’ve ever witnessed (first game 1967) turns out I was lying to myself. Delighted with fourth, anything else would have been a travesty.
It will be interesting to see if he gets more protection in a Celtic strip* than he does now, some of those challenges yesterday should have resulted in an arrest.
*(In case anyone is offended, I hope he doesn't go to Celtic ,)
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.
