    Apologies for the self indulgence!

    As everyone is rightly focusing on getting used to the new set up it's understandable that the front page may not be high on the list of .netters' priorities ......

    BUT

    ....... as we're going into Europe again soon I thought a wee bit of nostalgia might be appropriate

    A great article as usual, though the French pedant in me is required to ask what this "L'Equippe" newspaper was??

    I'm not fluent in French (or English as my articles reveal ) but I'm given to understand it was a sports magazine?

    "l'equipe" is a daily sports newsaper in France. I've never read it though, only ever read "France Football". Do you not live in France?

    One of the best things IMO about this upgrade John was getting the Front Page back online and for that part reading your articles.

    Good to see you back John - you should write a book
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, vodka in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming, "WOO HOO what a ride!"

    Great read John, and there is never any need to apologise for self-indulgence. It's a beautiful thing.

    I'm slowly importing across all the previous articles, but I have just finished the 'we are hibernian fc' series John wrote a while back.

    34 articles charting the history of the club from it's beginnings

    You can find them under hibs.net articles \ we are hibernian fc

    More articles to be put in the archives as I get through them
