80 minute champions


Recommended Posts

I'm not sure if it's true but apparently we would have won the league if the games only lasted 80 minutes.

I'm just wonder why that would be the case I don't think it's a lack of fitness in fact Rapid complemented us on that so what could it be?

I wonder if it's a lack of mental toughness? The one thing about teams who are used to winning is they always believe right until the end and that can often make the difference in a close game

Maybe more to do with the Shettleston harriers scoring a lot of goals late on.

 Could be correct -- think Man. Utd under Fergie - the old West Germany and even Germany now -- how many wins secured in dying seconds??
