Wheres it all gone wrong ??


With the Hawks squad still recovering from their post Shield celebrations some of them are already gearing up for their next fixture tomorrow night--The Miss Scotland Contest--yes several unnamed members of the team are on parade
Could they be hoping to emulate the legend that was George Best

"Of the vast volume of words written and said about George Best, perhaps the most telling came from the mouth of the man himself.
The ultimate laddish tale tells of the night when a waiter delivering champagne to Best's hotel room saw thousands of pounds of casino winnings and the current Miss World Mary Stavin both arranged tastefully on the bed.
The scene prompted the legendary question: "Mr Best, where did it all go wrong?"
But it was only some years later that Best observed: "Perhaps he saw something in me that I didn't."
Best was always ready with this self-deprecating put-down when questioned on his lifestyle.
"I spent 90% of my money on women, drink and fast cars. The rest I wasted," he was often quoted as saying.
