    Nice thing to see

    From the game on Friday, Keogh's backpass and Grant just kept it out. Both players were having a go at each other.

    It swasn't winning at Wembley that costs us in 2007 it was the Wee Dwarf thinking more about his contract than concentrating on building a squad fit for the prem. If he'd spent half as much effort on getting in the 4 or 5 quality players instead of feathering his own nest we might have had a chance, but no he just went and spent A£7 million on Claude and Earnshaw
