He was just starting to look the part when he left

For ages I moaned that we were playing him (a loanee) over Idah (one of our own) when he was no better. He suddenly showed a bit of ability and then I think that was his last game for us. We still mugged Celtic right off for old Adam so I suppose all's well that ends well.
