Archie McSquackle Posted January 14, 2020 Share Posted January 14, 2020 I thought it looked a bit like Brian Wright but wasn't sure if he was actually at Motherwell at the time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flybhoy Posted January 14, 2020 Share Posted January 14, 2020 Joe Miller and Kevin Drinkell in 1989 in what I reckon was their only stint at modelling. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dundee Hibernian Posted January 14, 2020 Share Posted January 14, 2020 Any information happily received on this picture, from the early 60s. The players closest to the ball are Bobby Carroll and Mike Sutton, dad of John and Chris, at St Mirren Park in a match between the hosts and Norwich City. Pitch looks very dry, was it a pre-season friendly? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Nightfly Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 I thought it looked a bit like Brian Wright but wasn't sure if he was actually at Motherwell at the time. Wright, a good player, was signed 18 months later. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Denis Law , Chopper Harris , Bobby Tambling , Gordon Banks , Terry Venables , Ron Davies , Jimmy Armfield etc 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From memory I'm sure we played them a week earlier and could only draw 0-0. Think attendance for 3-0 game was given as 42,000!!!.in a ground with a capacity of 67,000...aye right!! Aberdeen were two points behind Celtic and had a goal difference six worse than a Celtic going into our last game which was at home against the Hvns. We blitzed them in the first half and were 4-nil up at half time. Despite the news that Celtic were drawing nil-nil at half time , I can remember the general feeling that there was really no chance of St Mirren beating them. Instead the game against the Hvns was seen more as a dress-rehearsal and confidence booster for the Scottish Cup Final seven days later. When we scored four against them again. In the league we’d gone on an incredible run , losing only once in the last 16 games and winning the rest. Dons fans of a certain age will probably be able to guess which team were the only ones to beat us in that run. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's who I think it is too for what it's worth. Part of that Clydebank team with Gallacher in goal, Coyle, Eadie, Rowe. It was always a tough match at Kilbowie, good days out there. Coyle left Clydebank and signed for Airdrie and I seem to remember the deal being announced on the Friday night on Scotsports late night show. He made his debut against us the next day and scored a hat trick I think. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What was Johnman thinking marking Cruz so loosely? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
