He's given Ronaldo a better opportunity...

...but he hit the wall again.

Ronaldos free kick ratio is quite poor. Ever since he started just blasting them at goal.

Obviously stayed here as a youngster, either that or it was a hell of a commute to Fords Road! :greengrin

It says here Lennon tried to sign him for Celtic. A bit out of our price range unfortunately.

Quality stat mentioned during the game. A male aged 20 to 40 has a 1 in 2,000 chance of making their Euro squad.

Hmmm!! Commentator just said Finnbogasson can speak 6 different languages, so he’s way too clever to be associated with the Jambos!! :wink:

A Jambo, eh?

Commentator on BBC highlights programme said that guy that scored Iceland’s first ever goal in the World Cup Finals brought up in Edinburgh and is a Hibernian fan good enough for me no mention of puddle drinkers dust bin rakers or Harry Potter. Get him signed up to play up front wi Flo!

Shows how much time the no-lifers spend on here... and how much it hurts that everyone who's anyone loves the Hibs
