SPL Record Breakers
After the recent high profile win over Dunfermline and how it was an SPL record, i thought surely we must have broken some more records since the beginning of the SPL. After a quick search on scotprem.com i found that we have indeed notched up nine (10 if you count the two biggest wins).
This is truly a magnificent achievement considering we were accused of having an aging squad, a club in crisis and also a one man team. We have lost 2 important figures, Larsson and O'Neill, but our future looks bright with Lennox Castle being introduced as our new Youth Complex and our new manager appearing to know how to attack (hopefully he can sort out the defending part!). We have seen a dismal performance in Europe cost us some glorious nights but let's see what a year on can do for the team. If we get as 'fortunate' a run as Rangers got, only having to win once, then who knows where we could end up!
Oh, and the last record surprised me as well!!
