Hawks head for St Andrews this weekend for a pre season training camp.They follow in the footsteps of the Scottish Squad who were also in the Kingdom of Fife recently and photograhed on the beach trying to emulate the scene from the epic film Chariots of Fire.
However not many of Frank's squad could match the performance of the original chariot Eric Liddell when he set an Olympic record of 47.6 sec for 400 metres in 1924
Liddell a devout christian refused to race on Sundays and he received a short note in the team hotel from the GB team masseur just before he ran--it read"He that honours me I will honour"
