Good work Fallout Boy.  If you can now just confirm that Gianfranco will be signing in the morning you'll have done a good day's work 8)

Would have disagreed about Robinson up to the world cup, now I'm not so sure.

But anyway

Jim Leighton - AKA dracula, was awfal.

Andy Goram - "Two Andy Gorams, there's only two Andy Gorams",Kilmarnock fans to the Rangers keeper after he had been diagnosed with mild schizophrenia. Good chant even if schizophrenia are delusions or auditory hallucinations (voices in the head) and not multiple personalities.

Dunno, dont read the Daily Rebel. When you get alot of the big clubs in europe sniffing around a player then is usually quite handy!

Didn't Craig Gordon turn down an approach from Inter or Juve last year?  Honestly.  The gorgie prick decided to stay with the jambo's.  Three words, lack, of, ambition.

they also quadrupled his wages to keep him at Hearts. oh and three words Champions League football. He wouldnt have gone to Juve because he would never get past Buffon. Fortunately he isnt like that keeper that left Dundee utd to be thirdchoice at Norwich!

I think his main resoning for not leaving was that he is still learning. Didnt want to do what a lot of young players do and leave their SPL team too soon.

PS fancy going up to Ceptic Park for the Faroes game??? :beers:
