        That’s the one I was thinking of.

        A bloody good Scotland team versus a team of mannies.

          • I was at the final. Left when we were 2-0 up to go winching. Made the right decision

            • Is it racist to think 15 year olds in Saudi Arabia grow up quicker than in Scotland?

                  I think he just trains with us full time when he can’t train with Cove.

                    Just checked linkedin and he has listed himself as Assistant Football Coach U14s at Aberdeen Football Club, since April 2021.

                    • Under 14’s eh?

                      The last time he was good.

                      • And yet he has both an FA Cup winners medal and a Scottish Cup winners medal in his trophy cabinet. Not bad compared to his peers from his time with the Dons.

                        • Is this the loan ‘keeper we had, who looked pretty average, but who did well in a cup penalty shoot-out at Rugby Park?

                          Boy’s done well for himself, it seems.

                              Good to see he is doing well. He was a great player for us. The article is right about him being able to read the game. He always managed to know when he could have a little jaunt forward for us.

                              • The ‘re-opening’ of boozers and eateries and the like is making **** all difference to me. I canna be arsed with masks and pre-bookings, timed two-hour slots, and the other necessary precautions which will, both literally and metaphorically, sanitise the spontenaeity of going for a pint or a king prawn rogan josh.

                                I’ll put up with it, though, to get to the pictures in the next few days to see this. I wonder if in the film he, Cathy or the kids will recall at length the huge influence on his Pittodrie success a train journey on 07.10.79 (2-2 away to St Paisley the day before) had on that season’s league win, and the odd bauble in the future, where a fellow passenger of the family pointed out the weaknesses in selection and tactics, and the remedies required to increase chances of success?

                                I expect that “awa to ****” will be the response.

                                HE became one of the greatest football managers in the world, his name a byword for determination. But a new documentary sets out how close Sir Alex…
