Iirc just the odd cup game but Tavernier played all the league games. Hickey had much more first team experience. As you say there were other factors but overall we wuz robbed and Rangers won a watch. They must still be laughing about it now! When Hickey left he had 33 first team appearances for Hearts, Patterson had 27 for Rangers when he left (albeit a lot of his were cup matches). Also got to remember that Hickey would've been on a very modest contract, his first senior one (I think), when we sold him, whereas Patterson had signed an extension with Rangers after he'd broken into the first team, so I assume he'd have been on a significantly higher wage - not to mention having an extra year than Hickey did at the time of departure. But I certainly won't dispute that Rangers still got a lot more than they probably should have at the time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately we weren’t in that position and Hickey went to club for big wage. It worked out for him but could have gone the other way. We had to sell or lose any decent fee.

At least they qualifying for tournaments now, I don't expect us to get out the group tbh, it's not impossible but Scotland are just lacking in certain areas of the park. Ironically though it was the through passes from the midfield which let us down as their accuracy was awful - one of those nights (as the eagles might sing) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think they’ll do better with more space in the Euros and with McGregor back, we’re a better team with him in it. We actually looked a far better team for about 70 minutes against the Netherlands than we did against Northern Ireland. Not all doom and gloom, at least we’ve got the Euros to look forward to, I’d rather be in our position than watching on from afar like Wales and N Ireland will be and like we usually are! Our defence does look like an accident waiting to happen though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I retract my ‘stupid’ comment, the one I aimed at you, and would like to replace it with ‘slightly slow’. I hope you’re ok with that? In fact, I don’t. I couldn’t care less. Have a great day.

And if their anthem is NOT GSTK, pray tell, what is it? Oh, BTW... National anthem of Northern Ireland - Wikipedia God Save the King, the national and royal anthem of the United Kingdom, is played as the anthem of Northern Ireland at association football. Oh, and I AM having a great day thanks. Edited March 29 by JDK2020 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
