    Getting beat 2-1 by Rangers makes you feel worse than 9-0 (or even 7-0) by Celtic

    When you’re a Celtic fan and manager of Aberdeen (who wishes he wasn’t) Mark McGhee




    But two goals in the final five minutes from Kenny Miller turned the tie on its head – leaving Well boss McGhee shattered.

    He confessed: “I’m sorry, you are not going to get a lot out of me.

    “I am speechless.

    “I have only ever felt as bad as this twice in my 900-odd games as a manager.


    “Once at Millwall when we lost in the play-offs and the other time at Wolves when we lost to Crystal Palace in the play-offs.

    “They are the only games that match how I am feeling right now.

    “Nobody has said anything after the game, nobody had anything to say.

    “I’ve said to them what I’ve just said to you.

    “They were the only words that were spoken.


    “I couldn’t speak for half an hour, I had nothing to say.

    “I’m totally speechless.”

    McGhee – who claimed afterwards that Scott McDonald wasn’t fit enough to start the match – slammed the ‘ludicrous’ nature of Rangers’ winning goal.

    Well looked to have done enough to earn at least a replay but with 60 seconds remaining a Stephen McManus mistake saw Miller pounce.

    McGhee, whose side face Rangers again next week as the SPFL returns following the winter break, insisted: “I didn’t think the game was won once we’d scored, there were still over ten minutes to go and we were away from home against Rangers.

    I would imagine losing a game you were in control of with 7 minutes to go would hurt more than one you were well beaten and can have no complaints. But that is stating the obvious, something beyond IQ's comprehension.

    McGhee should give Kenny Misser a game for Scotland - might do a job still.

    Suffers from Kris Boyd syndrome, only looks good against Scottish defences.

    If Miller was even to bestow on Scottish players knowledge on how to keep playing for the jersey and staying in contention at or near the top into his late 30s it would be of benefit imho. He might be a hun but in fairness to the guy you can't question his commitment and no little skill.

    I think he is a very good player - the only one the huns have who is any good. The sooner he retires the better...
