House Bartender Posted November 14, 2021 Share Posted November 14, 2021 Despite the fact that Remembrance Day has been partly hijacked it remains valid for all of us. And football was a respite for those who were there. Our families, our game. To keep up the Scottish Photos theme, have a look at https://www.footballandthefirstworldwar.org/ Something there for all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bad enough being chained to a radiator for three years imo.... It's a pity Hezbollah didn't kidnap Derek Johnstone instead. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His clobber seems to be from the mid-1990s, Lambie looks like a Sweeney extra from the early to mid 1970s whilst Bertie Auld looks late 1970s/very early 1980s. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merchiston Castle School are now out at Redford but they moved years after this game so I believe the venue was where the Napier Uni Merchiston campus is in Colinton Road but I'm too lazy to do the research. I'd guess it was played on the adjacent cricket field, which has now been replaced by housing Link 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. X Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 1959 League Cup Final Hearts against Third Lanark. Supposedly the third Lanark keeper Jocky Robertson was an avid Hearts fan and always wore a Hearts top underneath his goalie jersey. The only time a player in the the losing team was wearing the colours of the winning team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raidernation Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 What I keep discovering on this thread is how easily I recognise players from the late 60s to the late 80s compared to anything after about 1995!TBH I doubt I’d recognise most current Dins players [emoji15] 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was sent off in his debut for Scotland vs Netherlands in 1959 for lashing out I retaliation. He became the first Scotland player ever to be sent off. I believe this indiscipline partly led to his departure from Celtic. It was a different game back then. The abuse flair players took back then was incredible. Bertie could dish it back out though. He broke the legs of Davie Provan of Rangers then George Miller of Hearts in consecutive games. When he signed for Birmingham he was sent off for head butting Johnny Haynes and then knocked out the Fulham centre half who came to remonstrate with Bertie with one punch.
