    2002/2003 was the last time any team got more than 93 points in the league, and we are odds on to do it this year despite a modest record vs the huns.

    Best team since pre-Seville in other words <ok>

    ... and 'Ex's' are mostly 'has-beens' whose opinions aren't worth listening to ... there are, of course, a few exceptions but Gordon Strachan is not one of them.

    Nah, posted at 08-30 [on the wind up ] before going for a few beers.
    Came in at 01-00am expecting a few more bites <laugh>

    But to be honest, i do think next to craig brown, <whistle> neil lennons on field achievements is deserving of MOTY.
    But his off-field behaviour may go against him.

    Hope not <applause>.

    His off field behaviour is no different from other managers, jus that the media demonise him and none more so than that reptile Keevins.
    SAF went onto the field v Wigan to remonstrate with official. He also had a prlonged spat with Mancini. Why is he not demonised, in fact he is promoted as the greatest PL manager.

    Strange contradiction that one. Must be something different about them that explains the different media attitudes to their behaviour.

    TBH cant think what it might be.

    Without a doubt the worst off field behaviour this season was Sally after the judgement to fine Rangers etc.
    How he doesn't finish up in jail is beyond me. I think Neil Lennon has behaved himself exceptionally well under the extreme provocation
    he has had to put up with, not only has he had to watch a series of referees give totally biased decisions against Celtic, he has continued
    to face threats and at the most critical part of the season he had to give evidence against Rangers fans who tried to kill him.
    Ex Rangers D. Findlay delayed the court case until it came at the time of the league cup final and match against Rangers. How much
    more could N. Lennon do and how much more has he to suffer. That idiot Brines must be not only the worse referee in the SPL but also
    one of the more biased.

    98. I think we were on to go the whole season undefeated as well but we stuck out a **** team against Hibs after we won the league and got beat, at home.

    ****ed now, we can match the 93 we got last year.
