We’ve Scot you jinxed
BEING BURNED IT’S JUST A LAFF
BY JOHN GARDNER MARIBOR boss Darko Milanic can’t wait to face Rangers – because his side always beat Scottish clubs in Europe.
The Slovenians, who face Gers in the Europa League third qualifying round, are unbeaten on their last four trips to Scotland.
And they have knocked out Hibs, Rangers, Celtic and Aberdeen.
Boss Milanic said: “Everyone knows how much we like to play Scottish clubs!
“Seriously, this is a treat for us and our supporters to see Steven Gerrard visit here.
“Rangers are a tough opponent. But we are always confident we can win against any side.” Burnley fans sang to me: “You will always be a b ***** d!” I’ve never heard that song before. What an honour.
I’m sure I even saw someone in the directors box hammering me with abuse at half-time! At least they remembered me. CRAIG LEVEIN nipped back at me for my comments on Kyle Lafferty and fair play. I’m all for opinions. I had my say on the Hearts striker and his manager had his say back. No problem with that.
Craig reckons I’ll regret having a dig at Lafferty. I don’t. I stand by what I said 100 per cent. To me, Lafferty has been a disruptive influence in previous dressing rooms he has inhabited and I don’t see the logic in why Steven Gerrard would take a risk on signing him.
But a war of words between myself and Craig? Do me a favour. If you can’t have two guys disagreeing about football you’d be as well closing the doors.
