    CC Got A Dry Sense Of Humour?

    From today's Scotsman:

    "You only learn things by following an example, by seeing other people doing certain things in terms of how you should be living your life.

    "There is a big advantage in that sense in having players from abroad because they give you a different lifestyle and way to play the game. You have got to embrace all of that.

    "So, at the moment, it is all about who is already here and each and every single one of them having a right good go at getting into the team."

    Yogi bingo!!!

    'step up tae the plate' and 'puff your chest out' will be next.

    Only people that 'really know the game' will understand

    John Hughes was often quoted as saying "...we gave it a right good go..." or something similar. Usually after a numpty performance by his team and a heavy defeat.

    **** me we are becoming way too analytical, there are only so many terminologies a football manager can use!

    Lets just see if his actions speak louder than his words.
    Just because he's said something that had vague resemblance to a Yogi quote, doesn't mean he will be a failure like Yogi!

    "You have got to embrace all of that."

    Is perhaps the wakeup call...

    I was just pointing out the irony that our new manager has used a phrase which our much maligned previous incumbant used regularly. Nothing sinister with regards to either JH or CC on my part.

    Its not what a manager says, its what he does.

    Hughes was Scottish, Calderwood is Scottish. We are going to hear a lot of similar things!

    I really do hope that we won't!

    A Scottish dialect is one thing but Yogi's very ill advised favourite "phrases" aout what will make the players and the team better I seriously hope not to hear from CC!

    I don't mind hearing them. Hughes was saying the right things. If CC can actually translate it to the pitch that would be ideal.

    Hopefully CC will soon be telling us the boys did "ever so well"
    There's only one thing better than a Hibs calendar and that's two Hibs calendars

    I wonder if CC will decide to start spinning the plates when the transfer window opens...

    As long as Calderwood doesn't go around saying that he "can't ask anymore of my boys" after another depressing 2-0 defeat to Hamilton or St Johnstone, then he'll be fine. That really used to get my goat.

    I wonder if he will say "I've got goals in my team" as well?
