'Mon the Hibs!
:bravo:
(Petrie still out, tho...) :whistle:

Brilliant result. The Sevconians are a deluded bunch. Had they learned some lessons, I could maybe have mustered a shred of sympathy, but as things stand they'll be in admin again before the season is out. Glorious.

Agreed. Assuming Hearts continue the good work Gary Locke (seriously glad we poached him!) started in January, they'll scoosh the league and (in my most fervent hopes) leave QOS, Raith and Hibs in the playoff spots. Further dreaming leads to a 15 point deduction for Sevco, knocking them into a relegation playoff spot.

There seems to be a broad range of clubs supported on here, but none of RA PEEPUL. Unless that's because they're out there, but know that defending the club is an exercise in futility?

There are lots of wonderful stories regarding Brits in formative Spanish football, particularly Bilbao and Huelva.

Gary Locke! He was utterly terrible at Bradford with a silly Norman (Spandau Ballet) haircut, he came with another Killie idiot who's name I've forgotten, he was a gangly centre half who played centre forward, he was comically clumsy but scored freakishly good goals. Tbh I think we had another Killie crackpot in goal too, Combe?

(Not interestted, at all, in mind numbingly boring and unimportant CL games tonight, wake me up when it gets to QF stage)

Ahem, Locke and Combe both made the step up from Bradford to Killie. Combe did well for us, but we've been spoiled with relatively good keepers so he's never regarded as highly as Marshall, Bell and Lejkovic. Locke is in a similar boat with many of the Killie faithful as his time with us was hampered by injury and we had flashier players in midfield who caught the eye.

The only other Killie/Bradford connection I can think of is Mark Stewart? You got him from Falkirk then we took him and broke his jaw in training, effectively ruining him. Oh, and you took Michael Nelson off us a couple of seasons ago, but I can't think of anyone else around the time of Locke.
