Made in Oldham is Rhodes' trademark3 Sep 1990 THAT Welsh rugby bard Max Boyce, used to tell the tale of a factory in Wales that turned out nothing but fly-halves. Since coming up here Andy Goram has established himself as one of the best. Though the heads of David Moyes and Ian McCall supplied the goals which earned the Fifers' manager Iain Munro his first league victory, it was the contribution of Rhodes which kept the home side in this game as Hearts ran the show. "His handling was first-class and he inspired confidence in the rest," was how Munro understated the influence Rhodes had on the outcome. But then, managers tend to steer clear of singling out individuals. "After Tuesday, people said there was a lack of commitment and attitude. "The one thing about this squad is that they are honest. Deflated by that midweek Skol Cup exit, Dunfermline took an age to muster any resistance to the free-flowing Hearts. Alex MacDonald's face carried a similar expression after the final whistle. Not only were two points lost, but the services of Derek Ferguson and Alan McLaren are in doubt for Wednesday's Skol Cup quarter-final against Aberdeen. In all, not the happiest day for Alex MacDonald. Taken from the Herald |
