'Play it Again Salm'
So the Scottish Sun has come out in support of Alex Salmond for First Minister - which is not a great surprise the way the election campaign is going.
But you've got to hand it the the sub-editors - 'Play it again Salm' is a clever strapline - one that brings a smile to your face - even if you're not a fan of Alex Salmond, the SNP or the Scottish Sun.
The best headline ever in the Scottish Sun - which I sadly failed to get a copy of at the time - was the one dreamt up by some wag after Inverness Caledonian Thistle beat the mighty Glasgow Celtic - in a Scottish Cup match, if I remember correctly.
The strapline used by the sub-editor on that occasion has gone down in newspaper history:
'SupercaleygoballisticCelticareatrocious'.
Mary Poppins - eat your heart out!
