Was in Reverie, Newington Road last night (who'd have thought Edinburgh would have a Dutch bar). Brilliant atmosphere etc.

Eddie de Graaf was in as well, sorry to have to report he drank no beer whatsoever, and left after the match in the company of his minder (?????).

Couple of Dutch guys recognised him and reckoned he can do a turn in the SPL but has shot it in Holland.

Nae chance the atmosphere was as good as in 56 North with all the spanish totty! Especially given that they won! Mind you, few of our lot ended up in Reverie later on... major party times up the Tron with hundreds of Spaniards there too!

Perhaps John Rankin and him can take it in turns to be the designated drivers for the Saturday night pub crawls

Just having a laugh at all the storie we get on here about players being out on the batter.

Sorry mate. No idea where he went after, but I was surprised that he needed a minder with him.
