Always seems quite humble as well despite being a very good player. He was very unfortunate to play at a time when the national team was probably the poorest it has been in the last 50 years. Far worse players than him have played for Scotland at World Cups and Euros. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martoon Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 I like Faddy. He was with us a young lad, I believe, and his time at Edinburgh's finest has made it's mark. One of the few who called out our scandalous treatment in 2020. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nelly Terraces Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 I think the fact that he also covers the English game via Radio 5 Live gives him a different perspective & makes him far more broad minded & less parochial than the rest of them up here who are totally in the ‘big fishes in a small pond’ category.

Sir PH Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 Michael "could of/should of/would of" Stewart could learn a thing or two from McFadden.
