At our local newsagent's I bumped into an old friend with whom I used to play the beautiful game in the days when balls were made of leather, like Gladstone bags.
My friend, a much-scarred Hibs supporter, could barely contain his joy. Rangers, he reckoned, had for too long used money they didn't have to poach the best players from teams such as his own in order to prevent them winning trophies. That the Ibrox side could soon disappear like Woolworths or the News of the World troubled him not a jot. In his Pavlovian opinion, it was no more than they deserved.
