Monkey Tennis Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 3 hours ago, Jacksgranda said: Well, they are the Irish Football Association. There's a clip somewhere of the crowd chanting "Ireland, Ireland" at the Northern Ireland v Scotland match in 1967(?). I'm sure the same chant is evident a little later when Northern Ireland played against England. It was that game where Best nicked it from Banks as he was about to kick it from his hands, before heading it in. It got disallowed though. What year was that - about 70ish? The footage is certainly in colour. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everybody thought it was a mistake or just his wee joke. Nobody expected teams to beat Jock Stein's Celtic back then, especially in a Final. Plenty people would have expected them to come back and win the game. But Rovers, people at least thought they had a chance with the team they had. Big team found without even a hint of irony. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeez, what's eating you Tut I was about 14 at the time, it's no secret by any means but it's a chapter of my life that's irrelevant now I'm an auld c**t. You can find my thoughts about Rangers in a few places, but certainly the Ibrox Disaster thread. Page 3 if you're bothered. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dundee Hibernian Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 (edited) Tannadice in the early 'sixties, Celtic didn't want to change for the game in the ground, and used Dens instead.

AyrshireTon Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 On 01/07/2020 at 21:33, Flybhoy said: Having a debate on clubs wearing change kits etc on Twitter and how often it was the home team who changed in instances of a clash up till the early 1980's, certainly ive seen plenty photos and footage of Celtic wearing change kits at Celtic Park in games v Morton, Kilmarnock, Ayr United, St Mirren and others... This picture of Andy Ritchie has sparked a bit of debate, I haven't been to Cappielow in about 20 years but I'm sure this picture is taken at Rugby Park meaning Kilmarnock are at home to Morton, not the other way round as a pal is suggesting, any older posters able to help here and possibly name the other players too? It's Cappielow. From around 1977 - 1982 the home team changed in the event of a clash. After that the "change kit" became known as an "away kit". Here's Celtic v Morton on the opening day Here's Morton v Celtic a few months later Even the Renfrewshire Cup Final at the end of 78-79 saw us change for St. Mirren's visit (I loved that kit). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the evidence is that bunch of clowns were completely incapable of running a business in such a way that it would ever have to pay tax?
