Well done to Paul Heckingbottom and his team. Result as important for him as it was for us. Our future is still in our own hands.
And hopefully it will keep PH in a job until Sept, by which point he could have wasted millions and signed ***** to consign the white ***** to a relegation season!!!
But rather more likely (if he stays) he will have signed McBurnie and will be leading a playoff push.
He may pay over the odds for some of our players off our hands Davies, Bradshaw, Mowatt, McCarthy, fryers, pinnilos, it'll give us a chance next season.
You dont walk out on your own town club mid season and gain respect . On a separate note good to see Brando win comfortably on Thursday could have benefitted from wind operation.
He was visually impressive but I'm not sure of the value of that form. As Matt Chapman said, it only stacks up if you think Roaring Lion ran to form. And I don't, on balance. Nor am I convinced by the depth of Gustav Klimt's victory in his trial at Leopardstown, and I just wonder if he might end up going for the French Guineas? I'm a big Saxon Warrior fan, but I'd also fear Elarqam. Being by Frankel out of the trainer's former G1 winning mare Attraction, this one must hold a special place in Mark Jhnston's affections, and he is still unbeaten.
And let's just note that Hecky resisted any gloating and declined to do the press interview afterwards, leaving that to Jamie. A touch of class, for me.
