  1. Used to be a regular pre-season tour destination during Tommy McLean's time. Split the squad - one half went with him and the other with Big Tam Forsyth - both squads to different highland league clubs. Had a wee dram with Big Tam at the Borough Briggs Social Club after one such encounter. These were as close as we got to Euro adventures in those day's you younger guys don't know your living
  2. The boy done us proud - Agent Amber over and out
  3. Glad I checked this - would have been turning up on Saturday Was it announced over the tannoy at the Utd game
  4. Not restricted to the East Stand - Cooper got the same message - we were last out and the steward was adamant that Season Ticket holders did not require a voucher - what an absolute shambles
  5. Get back to work slacker and less of this nonsense.
  6. So glad I gave this a miss. Now we're going for it - Arthur f.......n Daley
  7. That was much later mate - 80's perhaps in a Scottish Cup Replay - huge crowd again. Think the clanger was in the last minute of extra-time
  8. Douglas is a 'well fan - that chant went on for ages - before the clanger
  9. Yeah it was and both teams seemed to cope better against it. Love him or loathe him and I can be his fiercest critic, you've got to admire big Higgy. Was really unlucky not to score successive hat-tricks (his first half shot of the post looked in all the way). Wait till you see his second, what a bullet header They're relegation fodder, but happy to come away with the points, despite a below-par performance.
  10. No apology necessary mate - but aren't we all
  11. Ask Kirkie if he played at Hampden for the Vics in a Scottish Junior Cup final before joining the 'well. Vague recollections of watching him from the schoolboy enclosure (front of South Stand).
  12. Way out with that one Pie - mind playing tricks. Spurs were double winners in 1960-61, a feat not achieved again until Arsenal 1970-71
  13. What a trip down memory lane that was - thanks tex. Keep them coming if you've anymore from your scrapbook - you wouldn't happen to have the report of the St Mirren game 1975?
  14. If your referring to Graeme Forbes - did he not go to Walsall, around the same time as Andy Dornan?
  15. Great clip shit result - forgotten that we had drainage problems far beyond the recent issues .
  16. Grew - I take it from your comment that the game wasn't televised - I couldn't remember - the SFA were funny about things in them day's, none of this televised football at the drop of a hat. Wonder what Hugh Allan and Ernie Walker would make of all this live football and Sky. Rule 14 ya bass, if there was a game in the public park, then no football could be shown on tele at the same time. To protect the game, I think was the line they always trotted out. Changed days indeed.
  17. "As the Gladiators entered the arena, the roar could be heard at Glasgow Cross" Doug Baillie's opening line of the Sunday Post report - Motherwell v St Mirren, Scottish Cup circa 1975(?) Huge crowd that day
  18. Along with the car keys - retrieved after the match at 'F' Division HQ, if I remember correctly
  19. Was that all it was - seemed like a lot longer at the time.
  20. LOL remember it well - I had given him dogs abuse for the majority of the game and after that strike he deservedly ran straight from their end to ours and gave me the 'GIRFUY' . Spoke to him some years after that and we both had a giggle about it.
  21. Please do mate - coming from Harthill we normally parked in Orbiston Street, that night we were parked in Jerviston - and just made KO. The queues snaked from both sides of the Taggarts end out onto Windmillhill Street - what a night, perhaps only bettered for atmosphere by the Hearts semi in the same competition. Cult hero's from that era has to be both 'Jumbo' Muir and big John Goldthorpe (made Higgy look like Messi )
  22. He didn't sign McGlinchey - the auld cuddly b.....d Broon did. Sorry re-read your post 'we', not 'he'
  23. Went for Kerr, very composed for one so young - but give it a rest on the Hateley trip - thought he had a good game today and can in the right circumstances play a midfield role - though I do prefer him at full-back.
  24. Customer Service focused individuals need not apply.
