Of Bhoys and Men - Oh Captain, OUR Captain

By: Cham | January 14th, 2007

Steven Pressley.

Yep, the former Hearts’ captain returns to Tynecastle to captain Hoops, i.e., the other side. While it hade been rumored during the week, by the Daily Record and others, I was a bit skeptical, but don’t count me as a nay-sayer. I think it was smart to have the seasoned defender as the captain; I personally love captain defenders, like John Terry of Chelsea and Fabio Cannavaro of Italy. At the same time, giving Elvis the armband for his first return match against his old team may have displayed a little bit of the gamesmanship that we’ve all grown to love in Gordy.

We are Celtic. This is the Celtic Offside Report.
