Larbert_Par Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 Really saddened to hear this news. A Scottish broadcasting icon and a voice synonymous with Scottish football. I loved hearing some of his commentary from the old days before my time - some of his lines were absolutely brilliant. Exactly how a fan is thinking a lot of the time as well. And how many of us have uttered the phrase "it's a stramash!" at a match or bemoaned a "disaster for Scotland!"? A talented man and I know from people who met him when he was a hospitality guest at East End that he was really great company. RIP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
