John Burridge 3 Report post Posted March 11, 2018 Stopped going just before they left for Italia 1990, Roxbrough took Robert Fleck who was on loan from Chelsea to Norwich at the time instead of John Robertson, never been back since. You do know John Robertson was injured for Italia 90? 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Flybhoy 4,831 Report post Posted March 13, 2018 Jimmy Bone , who comes from the same Stirlingshire village as me, Fallin, holds the Anglo Scottish Cup, won by St Mirren in 1979 against Bristol City, the only Scottish club to win it in its short existence. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Robertson played alongside Mirandinha in a Newcastle team that also had Dave Beasant in goal- apparently Beasant used to resort to Wimbledon's tactics of launching the ball up the field where it sailed magnificently over the heads of the two short-arsed strikers.. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jason King 1,429 Report post Posted March 13, 2018 I also think they have confused Italia 90 with Euro 92, a competition that Robertson did miss because of injury. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Robertson was shunted out to the wing for the majority of his short time at Newcastle. A baffling decision. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Flybhoy 4,831 Report post Posted March 13, 2018 Peter Latchford takes a cross ball with Dave McPherson, Ted McMinn and Paul McGugan nearby during a reserve game at Ibrox in 1985......the crowd for a RESERVE game.. !!! The fixture between the first teams at Celtic Park that afternoon was postponed, hence the large crowd. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
