A Photographic History Of Scottish Football

I found this old picture of what looks to be the Gorgie End at Tynecastle but not sure of date and occasion. What strikes me is that I can't see anything in the picture to suggest it is a football crowd. Also interesting to note how many of the crowd are looking directly at the camera.

A few guys down the front left corner look like they have football scarves. A few faces look like they've been stuck on the picture in an early attempt at photoshopping.

Possibly taken for the fan of the day feature in the programme where people won cash if they were the circled fan. Basically just a ploy to get people to buy the programme.

Probably just this: might explain the photoshopping.

 

Here's one from Easter Road in 1954 with a few traditional plastic macs on show. Vince Clarke from Erasure is wearing one with a fetching bunnet. Another bloke with the mac/bunnet combination is practicing his Kenneth Williams 'shocked' expression.

I was there, but not in the Gorgie Road end.  Hearts lost 1-3, and then managed to win the away leg 1-0. CLose, but no cigar.

I seem to remember they wore a ghastly striped kit for no apparent reason.

or the guy who presents the littlewoods cheque.

As a wee thought experiment, I've asked myself what my answer to that question would have been at the different stages of my life. I came up with:

Kenny Dalglish

Lt. Uhura from Star Trek 

Joe Strummer

Billy Connolly

Socrates (the footballer, not the philosopher- obviously)

Colin "Bomber" Harris Accies Legend

Kylie Minogue 

Kim Wilde

The wee c*** who burgled my flat

Girls Aloud

Monica Bellucci 

Helen Mirren 

Stephen Fry

A good psychiatrist 

My maker (hurry up, mate ffs)

Eve Graham was lovely.

But Mrs Blackwood was smoking hot. Good shout!

Mrs B was so gorgeous I listened to every word, and created a career out of it. 

I would so like to thank her....... (well ,maybe not now)

 

PS - I remember she told us her xmas present to her man was a Kilbirnie Ladeside scarf. 

Maybe he posts on the junior forum?
