Now, I mustn't mention the Old Firm game. I mustn't. This blog is about the little guys, the
underdogs, the also-rans in Scottish football. Yer Albion Rovers, yer Stranraers, yer Annan
Athletics, yer Heart of Midlothians. So I must not mention what feels like the 400th game this
season between Scotland's playground bullies.
It's not often anyone has all that much to say about Albion Rovers. So now that they've got
quite a good side and at the midway point of this two-legged play-off final look favourites to go
up to the second division, let me take a few moments to do so.
It doesn't help that they have a rather undistinguishable named.
The curtain comes down on domestic football for another season.
Yesterday's Scottish Cup will not perhaps be long remembered as a classic. Celtic too often seemed
unable to click through the gears, that lent long periods of the game a scrappiness that seemed to
offer Motherwell their best hope.
Alex Ferguson's worst defeats as a manager - originally posted on Soccerlens.com
Sir Alex Ferguson has said that the 6-1 defeat to Manchester City was his worst day in football.

It turns out that this is only the third time (in 2,061 games spread over 37 years) that a team
managed by Ferguson has conceded six goals in a game.
