Raith Against The Machine 4,583 Report post Posted November 2, 2020 If it was a straight choice between Dunfermline winning the league or Hearts, then let me grow a moustache and call me Norrie. The (temporary, I'm sure) elevation of our dear neighbours would be a small price to pay for the utterly hilarious headloss in Gorgie. 16 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We won't be troubling Hearts for long sadly, our main hope was Dundee, but alas, McPake. I reckon if they had Robertson they'd win the league. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'll leave that one up to you. No fkn way I'm growing my hair long and asking to be called John Watson. That would be a step too far. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm sure they were hit with a barrage of snowballs from the bottom end terrace. I think smacking Watson in the pus with the snowball is up there in folklore with breaking the Wembley goals in 1977 - everyone knows someone who did it. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It happened as the teams were setting up to attack/defend a corner from the railway stand corner. I was with my dad in the terrace next to the railway stand when the fun started. A young lad close to us saw the snowballs start to fly and belted away to join in, there was a large pile of snow (ammunition) heaped in the corner. The young guy actually hit Watson on the back of the head/neck with his first throw. Great effort but doesnae top the time at EEP Cammy Fraser dumped JW on his bahooky then after offering a Watson his hand thumbed his nose at him. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Scary Bear 3,231 Report post Posted November 3, 2020 (edited) Can’t find a decent image of him, in colour, in full flow with his orange perm mullet on the go. Shame. The Pars strip being black and white made his hair look super orange. Edited November 3, 2020 by Scary Bear 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm sure that was Paul Sweeney's last competitive game for the Rovers and he was simply awesome that day. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
