Velazquez Blue Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 Heard Sheerin is signing. I wouldn’t have done that with Renton on board. If GB is happy to have Sheerin and Renton then I’d welcome that. We’ll wait and see then. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muzza81 Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 After years of being a soft touch and too easily bullied a potential team containing Gilfillan, Dunlop, Marsh, Scott, Cox, Renton and Sheerin would be a joy. Just bodying players and bullying games. Let’s get behind Bollan putting together a hard as f**k team to win a square go at Cove. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder if Keith ‘mad dog’ McCulloch is fit enough for a cameo from the bench? John Ward was another mad hard b*****d that I loved. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally dont see that partnership working unless we bombard teams with a physical approach.. Haha true though I did only say to you Swann intimated near end of last season he wouldn’t be re signing and was then dropped, which is true. he must have now changed his mind after presumably no full time offers 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drifter Posted June 1, 2018 Author Share Posted June 1, 2018 As an aside, and to take the talk away from transfer rumours and signings during pre-season summer months... I was wondering, other than numerous performances in the Cowden shirt or rivals' capitulations down the years.... what's the funniest thing you've seen at the match, or going to the match? An incident that still makes you laugh to this day.... One of my own, although not funny for me at the time, was a time where a stray ball was destined for me in the stand and, thinking I'm Pele, I had visions of volleying the ball as far as I could right back on to the pitch. Unfortunately, sue to the amount of pre-match ale I'd consumed, I ended up flat on my arse, completely missing said ball, with around 4,000 people and the television cameras looking on. Thankfully in the days before youtube and to save any further embarrassment to myself, I'm not saying the game! Still makes me squirm thinking about it, but the 'mates' around me at the time found it highly amusing... especially the lad in the opposite stand who came up to me in a bar after, asking: 'Was that you?!' 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HenryHill Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 A good one for Central Park was George McCluskey getting knocked out, sat into a wheel chair and red carded before getting carted off. He did pick a fight with Big Eric. It seems a bit hazy now but still convinced it happened. Sure he was playing for Killie at the time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cowden0 Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 Bowmaker attempting to take corner at central park only to kick the solid spring corner flag that we used then. The ball rolled all of 2 feet. Resulting to a broken foot and to top it off, him telling the supporters and players to f**k off for laughing. A couple of weeks later we played Hearts in league cup at Tynecastle, he decided to watch the match with the supporters in the enclosure complete with crutches only to be greeted with the chorus of " bow bow shitey bow". Still makes me smile. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PELE Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 Always remember when we had a large space where the new stand is now, after the fire. We had Billy "Buzz" Lamont in goals and he was having a mare. A black cab drove into the ground up to where the new stand is now, in full view of everyone in the terracing and somebody (think it was Stuart Juner) shouted at the top of their voice, "Taxi for Lamont". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would definitely sign Sheerin. He might not be fast, but he reads the game perfectly. He might not have been as effective in the latter games, but he was isolated and chasing hopeless causes most of the time. I think him and Renton could hit it off as a partnership. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can vaguely remember Stuart shouted something like give us a wave and it cost us a goal Here we are - from the text of a book called Black Diamonds and the Blue Brazil: One incident stands out. Levein persuaded his friend, Pasquale Bruno, the ex-Juventus, Torino, Fiorentina and Hearts star, to make a cameo appearance for the Blue Brazil in a match at Central Park against Ross County. The tanned Italian superstar strolled elegantly around the Fife Maracana. Then, with Cowden 2-0 ahead, Stuart Juner, a legendary Cowden terracing wit, shouted: “Hey Pasquale, where have you been all my life?” Bruno looked up and grinned - and completely missed the ball, allowing the Ross County striker to run straight through and score. The Blue Brazil ended up losing 3-2. If it's in Black Diamonds, it must be true... or aproximately true. I must say the late lamented Stuart Juner was best terracing wit I've ever heard. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
