Doubt you would get away with a stunt like that in todays ultra scrutinised climate. I was at that game. If I remember correctly, the league flag, which we had won the previous season, was unfurled that day, and it was also the first match played in front of the newly roofed South Stand. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the style of strips , especially the shorts , and the hairstyles I'd say that looks like it was in the early 80's , well after Gray had left the Jutes (assuming that's the team you think are in the photo).The number 6 does look like Narey Is that Pat Nevin the Clyde number 10 ? And the ref looks very light on his feet 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salvo Montalbano Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 Same principle for Gregor Stevens, Motherwell - Leicester - Rangers. The most famous recent one was Robert Jarni moving from Real Betis to Coventry (which was seen as a huge coup for them, as he'd just finished third with Croatia at the World Cup) then was almost immediately transferred to Real Madrid. I'm sure Coventry made about £300,000 on the deal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flybhoy Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 Frank Mcavennie celebrates with goalscorer Tommy Coyne as Celtic beat Airdrie 1-0 at a waterlogged Broomfield in what was Mcavennie's second Celtic 'debut' in 1993. Cracking strip that by the way, one of my favourite Celtic away shirts of all time. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Long shot but was based on memory of John Gardiner wearing a goalie kit not unlike that. Numbers were that style on Umbro kits then too. Plus faintly the tops of the socks might have diamonds on them...pass the magnifying glass! Meadowbank might be a good shout. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkey Tennis Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 You could almost argue that Richard Gough joining Rangers featured something similar. Dundee United wouldn't let him go there, but he did via Spurs, albeit he was there long enough to reach an FA Cup final with them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
