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? Umbro, Adidas and Admiral kits from the late 70's were the best. None of this patterned spiro infused pish we get today. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go back 20 years and everyone seems to be wearing one. Funny how these things change almost by stealth. Aye they certainly do. Old crowd pictures are probably more fascinating than pictures of the game itself. The game is the game is the game but on the terraces and in the stands things change so much over time. The game has not changed in any way ?! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottmcleanscontacts Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 The game has not changed in any way ?!Well, do you think it has?I think you've took my comment too literally.Formations might have changed. Tactics might have changed. The look of the baw and the boots might have changed.The actual game? No, of course it hasn't changed. It's still 11 blokes doing their best to score more goals than the other 11 blokes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically just a ploy to get people to buy the programme. I don't buy that one (pardon the pun). I remember Rangers experimented with that around 1971, I mean the circles, not the photoshopping, or cutting and pasting as it was then. But if you look at older programmes (Hearts in this case) it doesn't happen. I don't think it's been altered at all btw. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

House Bartender Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 As Hibs and Aberdeen meet up this afternoon, here's an opportunity to look back to the Cup Final of 1947. Hibs 1 Aberdeen 2. l-r : Taylor, McCall, McKenna, Hamilton, McLaughlin, Williams, Dunlop (with cup), Harris, Waddell. Interesting to note the longevity of the Taylor/McKenna partnership which persists to this day. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arabdownunder Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 Pretty sure there was a story that Ms Nicks nasal septum was so messed up by cocaine use that she had to get someone to blow her ching up her arse for her. Don't know if that was at the same time as Davie knew her. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
