Day of Days

Well the day has come. Cup Final against Heart of Midlothian for those who are unaware of Scottish football- first all Edinburgh cup final since 1896. Today memories fall, like a yowdendrift as MacDiarmid put it. The early immigrants, struggling at all levels to overcome prejudice and poverty, the great players over the years and above all family and friends who are involved with this great club as well as, more poignantly, those no longer with us who never saw us win the cup.
Off to prepare now, nearly got a ticket but will be getting on the bus to Edinburgh a little excited, mostly apprehensive as we are such underdogs. At 5 p.m. emotions will be running high...
