Sorry Paul

Let's hope that Alex Ferguson is benign in Moscow. If he chooses to play his Scottish talisman Darran Fletcher (alright, talisman's a bit strong I know) then Paul Lambert will no longer be the "last Scotsman to play on Europe's greatest stage."

No offence to Paul but it was making journalists lazy, it made him look like some sort of Champion's League rent a quote and it was, frankly, embarrassing that we boasted about one Scot playing 30 years ago or whenever it was.

So go on Darran, do something for your country. A Scotsman playing in Moscow. A Scotsman managing in Moscow. And a Scottish team in Manchester. Happy days are here again.
