    Just had my Sunday phonecall from Grandmother who lives in Inverness.

    'Has your football team had a successful season?' she asked.

    Yes or No - what would you have said?

    If you'd have given me fourth bottom at the start of the season I'd have snapped your hand off. If you'd told me at Christmas we'd finish fourth bottom I'd have snapped your head off.

    I think I would have referred to the famous analogy of the curates egg - It was good in parts

    I'd have said "stop taking the piss Granny; football's not very good in Scotland either you know, if you wanna start something?"
