Souness has injected the kind of stimulating vitality lnto Scottish football that Ben Johnson's doctor would admire. The tale ol the ex-Liverpool skipper's impact on the game in Scotland is in danger oi entering the hallowed realms ot
footballing cliche. Alongside ‘there are 5
no easy games in international lootball‘. now stands, ‘say what you like about Souness but he's done a lot torthe game in Scotland‘. Nowhere has his mark been more plainly stamped. or rather engraved. than on the Skol Cup. Over the past three seasons his multi-million pound team ot English ex-pats have dominated the competition and in the last two tinals have (along with Aberdeen) provided connoisseurs ol the game with the footballing equivalent of a gourmet extravaganza. This year the two meet again and the Egon Ronays amongst the armchair punters are already beginning to drool overthe prospect. Aberdeen's experience at the hands. or rather boots, of Rapide Vienna. whose tackling proved more ‘agricultural' than an entire volume of Farmer's Weekly. seems to have dented their recent run of good form. The Dons' managerAlex Smith's main pre-tinal concern is the goal-drought that has attlicted his tront rankers. So tar this season the once prolitic Nicholas has tailed to tind the net, and his colleagues are barely doing enough to make him teel bad about it. However. as his boss points out. with a
Doris Stokes-like vision — ‘the barren run mustend soon.‘
Onthe otherhand. the expensive Rangers have. in the first seven weeks at the season. been doing little to justify their expensive price tags. Their manager's dream, to evolve a more European style, has been blown away in the whirlwind pace ot the Premier League.
However, when sunset on the 22nd heraldsthattime beloved ot commentators on the game — ‘the end otthe day’ — Rangers‘ more productive striketorce may well have retained the trophy tor Souness. (Ross Parsons) The Skol Cup Final, 22 Oct, 3pm, Hampden Park, Glasgow, 6321275.
