They carry the can for me. Nothing to do with Scots or Martians in the coaching staff. After the improvement against Hearts perhaps it's a case of Gio learning all the lessons in one horrific match ... a big like Scooge and the 3 ghosts all in one night Robmc1, falkirkNS and jamess 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We didn’t have a Scotsman on board when we were undefeated in the last seven games against them. Reactionary nonsense as always. Alex Rae was saying Eck told him he wanted someone in the team who knew what the club was all about ... now of course that could just be mind games to get the best out of the player but I'm not so sure. I feel that however professional or committed imports are they know one day they will probably be living elsewhere and any negatives from their playing days will be put behind them but that's not the case with local lads. I remember back in the 80s everyone pointed to the 3 Dutch in the great Milan team but it was just as much about the 8 Italians ... indeed I think if the numbers had been reversed with 8 Dutch and 3 Italians I don't think they would have been as good. You only have to look at our best Champions League European team that played during the 3 foreigners rule Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure about the 3 ghosts lol, but GVB certainly looked like he got a fright and like yourself I hope he learned a valuable lesson… Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
