People who've won more than Craig Levein

[Northernhibee]

We may as well create a comprehensive list of people who have won more in their lives than Craig Levein. A wee comedy thread to keep the serious ones clearer too :agree:

Steve Brookstein won the X Factor. Craig Levein has never won a trophy as a player or manager.

Su Pollard won rear of the year in 1988. Craig Levein has never won a trophy as a player or manager.

Has anyone else got people who have won more than Craig Levein has?

I won a signed Hibs ball in 97/98. After relegation it was demoted to garden kick about ball and booted round the back green for 10 years. It moved with us to the borders where my German shepherd put his teeth through it, ripped it to bits and scattered it all over the garden. The chowed remains went on the fire.


That is still worth more in it’s current condition as an anecdote than anything Levein has won.

[Topographic Hibby]

I’m watching the last leg of the Tour de France.

Craig Levein has won the same number of cycling Grand Tours as Egan Bernal. But give it an hour or so.....

[Aldo]

I think we are being a bit unfair on Craigie Boy. He has won something and it was a really poignant award (s)

He won biggest bottler and ****iest pants of the day award on that day in 86???

Does this really count though!

I think this qualifies as winning the Yam lottery - manager, DoF, Club Director

If being the first player ever to retain the young Scottish player of the year title, doesn't count as a trophy then you might have a point. No mean achievement when you consider that John Collins, Michael Weir and Gordon Durie were also nominees.

Unethical I know, but I've still won more than Harry Potter. :na na:

[Smartie]

We used to have a book club thing at school, I think it was called chip club, and you could order books through it.

A promotional poster would be put on the wall promoting that month's main book. One month it was "Black Beauty" and all of our names were entered into a hat to see who would win the Black Beauty poster.

I'm delighted to say that my name was drawn to be the lucky and extremely grateful winner of this prize - more than Craig Levein has ever won.
