8MileBU Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 I'm pretty sure the toilets under the stand at Brockvile were the inspiration for THAT scene in Trainspotting. The pigs at Muiravonside farm have better sanitary conditions than those toilets had. I remember when I was about 13 seeing an auld boy slip and fall a dull yin in those bogs. Up there with some of the most heartbreaking things I’ve ever seen tbh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No word of a lie this, when I first saw the film Hostel, the dark, damp, dimly lit torture room immediately reminded me of the bogs at Brockville, I vaguely remember a picture of them I seen somewhere, may have been on here or on social media but they were even worse looking in pictures than in the flesh.

Flybhoy Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 George Best of Man Utd in action v Partick Thistle in a testimonial match at Firhill in 1973, unsure of the Jags player honoured but I'm sure this was the year United were relegated. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
