Hamilton Accies travel to sunny Greenock to meet the Ton this afternoon. Did ye know that the name Greenock comes from the Gaelic Grainaig meaning "a sunny place"? It's true. There are so many more satisfying facts in store for you if you will just keep reading.
Pictured above is the Greenock Custom House. Robert Salmon painted this lively maritime scene in 1820. Q: Is the King in town? A: That does look like the Royal Standard on the roof. Q: Did we not see this biddel-ding elsewhere recently? A: here.

Q: And what do the standings of the Dennis the Menace Red and Black Group look like, now that Pohang Steelers are included? A: They look like this:
[Ugh. Hamilton win 2 - 0. Ross County also win and take over first place. Falkirk win. Morton fall to fourth.]
