Having begun our search for the very worst for each lower league side with Murray Hughes’s collection of crap from Cowdenbeath, we now move into central Scotland and onto Falkirk. The Bairns have been somewhat of a yo-yo club the last 20 years as they have bounced between the top two tiers. For Falkirk historian […]

Having gotten the last of the top flight clubs out of the way by recounting the piss-takers of Partick Thistle, we now move on the lower leagues. First up is the mighty Blue Brazil. Despite the relative success enjoyed by the club these last two years, the opinion of manager Colin Cameron could scarcely be […]

The immediate need for the cold, confined comfort of a darkened cupboard aside, assembling Aberdeen’s ‘Worst XI’ of the SPL era raises a number of issues.

Hibs unfortunately missed out on the opening year of the SPL after experiencing the horror of relegation in 98. Some of those players have escaped the shame of being in the worst 11 (although I am sure they couldn’t care less what I think) by the skin of their teeth. Since the record breaking First […]

This particular blog is longer than any of those that have come previous. I can reassure that this was not premeditated scheming on the part of a Hearts fan in charge of a website. Believe me, sometimes the last thing I want to read about, particularly this season, are the fortunes of my own team. […]

Inverness Caledonian Thistle have enjoyed a steady and progressive climb up the leagues since their merger and admittance into the Scottish Football League. They first came into the SPL in the 2004/05 season, which our writer has fairly judged to be a good cut off point in which to build a fair team of infuriating […]

Some seasons have been a success, some have flirted with disaster, but whatever has happened during the nine months of a Scottish Premier League season Kilmarnock’s place in the top flight has stayed constant. However, there have been a few years, following the Kris Boyd and Stevie Naismith days, that have been particularly hard to […]
