Talkin’ with Strachan – Travelin’ Riverside Blues

By: Cham | Comments 3 Comments

The last time I wrote a Talkin’ with Strachan post, it was the morning of February 24th, 2007. Later that day, Celtic would face and dramatically defeat Inverness Caledonian Thistle in the late minutes of the Scottish Cup Quarter-Finals.
