Spurs (went to school with Dave MacKay's nephew, got autograph, rest is history). You can see I'm no glory-seeker. |

Apart from Dundee, various semi-finals are right down there (Airdrie twice, St Mirren and St Johnstone). |
Best Hearts goal | Naysmith v Aberdeen, Fuller v Motherwell, de Vries (4) v Them, Denzil v Pars and Robbie in Basel. Ach, what the hell EVERY one! |
