Here is a list of Hugh and Dereks greatest misses
Hugh Keevins, Sunday Mail, November 1998
"I don't know what I find more laughable: the fact that Celtic cannot find £500,000 from their biscuit tin to sign a proven talent like John Spencer, or the fact that they then spent £300,000 on one of Dr. Jo's old pals, the unknown Lubomir Moravcik".
"Artur Jorge will shortly be unveiled as the new Celtic manager. He is currently inside Celtic Park holding talks."
Later that afternoon, Wim the tim was unveiled as manager
"Mark Viduka will shortly sign for Bayern Munich. I have seen the contract."
Cue ………. Viduka signing on the dotted line at Leeds United.
"Josef Venglos will live to regret his decision to play this unknown Slovakian ahead of Mark Burchill in such a vital Old Firm Game."
Cue ………. Lubomir Moravcik scoring twice as Rangers are molligated 5-1.
"I expect Rangers to win the league comfortably, and by quite a considerable margin".
Cue ………. Green & white ribbons adorning the trophy, as Rangers finish third in a two-horse race.
"Old Trafford on Champions League night is no place for Nakamura, and his blend of tippy-tappy football."
Cue ………. 47 minutes later Naka flights a sublime free kick over £100 Million pounds worth of defensive wall!
"If Manchester United play their best eleven, and Celtic play their best eleven - Manchester United will beat Celtic."
Cue .......... The full-time score: Celtic 1, Manchester United 0.
"Come 5:00pm, and Celtic's lead being cut to just 11 points - is it now the time for panic at Celtic Park ?"
Cue ………. Rangers drawing 1-1 with ICT and the day ending as it started - with Celtic enjoying a comfortable 13 point lead.
The best of them all though was another cliché courtesy of Johnstone.
"You only get monkeys when you spend peanuts"
This was in relation to Celtic’s signing of…..
