Putting aside the horror show of last season and the massive and almost unforgivable disappointment of relegation we now find ourselves in a different league. I`ve always thought that sport was about competition and not about teams with hoardes of resources and continual domination. The glory days of fantastic european nights seem well and truly beyond us and we find that we have a new challenge in front of us. At least we will be closer to a level playing field with the opposition the only drawback being that our biggest rivals should have been kicked out of Scottish football but alas the heirarchy couldn`t do that because of the financial impact on the rest of the teams.
It might also be an opportunity to get our football on the deck philosophy back and encourage the recruitment of youngsters with pace and hunger, we`ve been needing to start again for a long time, i know it is hard to be positive but there is little else and Hamilton Accies might have turned out to be the example and the catalyst that we needed in order to move forward, being brave on the ball, trying to pass it rather than hoof it and showing a great urgency to get the ball back when it is lost.
