McGhee scored one of their goals I think. Apart fae Andy Ritchie , the thing I remember most about Morton fae that era is Jim Tolmie’s mental hair. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I’m sure someone will know the details. On 25/01/2020 at 20:03, Pet Jeden said: Look at the physique of that defender! You can understand how they might just have underestimated Celtic - with wee Jimmy Johnstone, podgy Bobby Murdoch and bandy Bobby Lennox Exactly, so much so that Inter thought they could play an arm-less goalkeeper.... 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dundee Hibernian 1,067 Report post Posted February 6, 2020 (edited) Stand being constructed at East End Park. Aerial view three year later, 1965: can't recall that small enclosure behind the east goal. Yet here it is, with three Pars in training: that's Dan McLindon, who later played a few years at Thistle, on the left.

Ken Fitlike 2,308 Report post Posted February 10, 2020 Current disgruntlement levels at Pittodrie are still short of the boo-boy bedlam of the Arbroath game where the news of Joey's exit became known... 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dundee Hibernian 1,067 Report post Posted February 12, 2020 Two from 1905: East Stirlingshire playing at Merchiston Park, Bainsford, which was on the north side of the Forth and Clyde Canal. The gasometer in the photograph was between Bainsford Bridge and Castlelaurie Iron Works. Brockville in 1905, the building with the Younger's advert will be recognisable to Falkirk fans. The same building is to the right of this photograph, from a 1959 local derby, Falkirk v East Stirlingshire. 10 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I remember it well. I was in the Paddock that day, and because we had no way of actually knowing what had happened, if I remember correctly, it was all just rumours going round the ground until I found out for sure going home in the car after the match. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Think it's maybe 1959, at least the similar picture I have is dated from then. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
