It's nine months since Steven Gerrard waxed lyrical about fixing roofs while the sun was shining and not waiting for problems to appear.
The then Rangers manager - standing before us as a champion to be fair - was talking about the early arrivals of Scott Wright, Jack Simpson, Fashion Sakala and Nnamdi Ofoborh to bolster the ranks for their title defence.
It was a brilliant soundbite. Gerrard was never short of them to his credit.
