The Warriors two goals in their victory were both scored by Tommy Steele, who I was told by a SFC fan could turn on 'Half a Sixpence'. Could be a young @Francesc Fabregas in the green bomber jacket. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There have been plenty ocassions where Premier Divison teams were knocked out by lower league outfits. This only seemed big at the time as people were still labouring under the illusion Aberdeen were any good. It's no more a shock than Annan beating Accies Never mind Eoin Jess, is that Adrian Sprott on the left? He played for Stenny after leaving Meadowbank. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

God knows what would have happened if the Dundee Board appointed Bill instead of Bob!! IIRC Craig Brown and Terry Christie were at Dundee at around the time Bob Shankley was manager. I wonder if they learned anything from him as manager .. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arabdownunder Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 Most cup upsets, the wee team wins by a single goal, typically with a mix of dogged defending, inspired goalkeeping, missed sitters and a breakaway winner against the run of play. As @Monkey Tennis said, that's why the Thistle result was so astonishing, they demolished a very good Celtic side. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Likes roast beef (it's usually steak and chips so fair play), Wings and Morecambe & Wise. Nice kit too. Hopefully Drew Jarvie answered "Drew Busby" to the best friend question. Any more of these? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to mention preferred alternative career as a publican.

One who maybe comes close is Evan Williams who played 1 game for Stranraer in 75-76 season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Academically Deficient Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 Interesting responses. Iain Munro likes Glenda Jackson whereas Tommy is a man after my own heart by going for Victoria Principal (if you want to google her, include "1970s" in the search, it gets a bit scary later on). Best sense of humour: Robert Prytz claiming to be 11st. And nominating John McLelland in his all-time best eleven. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Academically Deficient Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 Paul Wilson had arty aspirations. He always seemed a cool guy. Lots of love for Barbara Streisand and relaxing at home with the wife in general. Bobby Smith goes for carbonara as his favourite dinner, probably pretty cutting edge at the time. These are excellent 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Northboy Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 Paul Wilson states birthplace as Glasgow but wasn't he famously born in India, or is that a myth? Where did the 'Biggest Drag in Soccer' question come from? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
