anyone hear mark mcghee talking about the standard of fitba in the spl before the game on setanta yesterday?

 

good to hear - he admitted he was surprised by how good the football was up here and how the general perception in england is that spl teams would struggle to survive even in league one (old second division) down south.

 

he reckoned even the crap spl teams that motherwell have played (caley and st mirren) would be mid-table championship and that the better spl teams would be top half and challenging to get into the premiership.

 

clearly, he said all this before yesterday's rather lacklustre encounter between two of the spl's supposed better teams, but it's good to hear someone like that, who's experienced fitba down south over many years, talk up our game up here.

 

just a shame we don't get the dosh these teams in the championship get...

Enjoyed listening to McGhee yesterday. Thought he was bang on with his comments about how a club like Aberdeen should at least be AIMING to challenge the old firm as you cant just continually go for 3rd place. There has to be improvement and ambition shown at some point.
