Monkey Tennis Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 That was fun. I don't remember Rob McLean's hair seeming quite so ridiculous back then, but I do remember Derek Johnstone being just such a pointless twat. I went to Dundee's next game with my old Dad and they were utterly hopeless, offering nothing at all. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikingTON Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 That 1995/96 division is almost certainly the strongest second tier that there has ever been in Scottish football. While pub teams like Queen of the South and Ayr United were slumming it below a parade of plumbers and fishermen outfits in the seaside leagues. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a certain poetic beauty to Archie though. Try "Mcstay ooft, hits the post with monotonous venom" or "seemed to duck under the ball, an inexplicable ducking of the head." That's some good shit right there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Master Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 (edited) Enjoyed that tonight, although no replacement for what should have been happening. Sportscene of that era was something else, though. The opening titles were like an animated version of that early 90s Scotland strip, the post-match interviews were outstanding for all the wrong reasons, and Derek “he won’t say it publicly but I’ll say it now privately” Johnstone really makes you appreciate “Mikey”, “Thommo” and “Faddy”. Tonight also reaffirmed my belief that Jim Duffy was born middle-aged. Edited April 24, 2020 by The Master 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He used to play golf at Letham Grange and pay on his mates, although I don't think he actually understood currency. More than once he'd pay the three of them on at £7.50 a head and not realise that a £20 note wasn't enough. Aberdeen also had a team outing there. A bunch of utter wankers. Billy Dodds and some other c**t decided it would be a right laugh to try to flood the locker room.

While pub teams like Queen of the South and Ayr United were slumming it below a parade of plumbers and fishermen outfits in the seaside leagues. Definitely the strongest 2nd tier I can remember. The top four of Dunfermline, United, Morton and St Johnstone were all excellent and generally free-scoring sides. We shat it after losing the cup final and finished well adrift in fifth. Iirc Morton had a chance to take the play off spot but drew 2-2 against United at the end of the season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derry Alli Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 (edited) Watching this now. Archie's DAKS jacket at the very start is resplendent. A thing of absolute beauty.

Derry Alli Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 Switched it off as soon as Gerry Britton come on looking like a fucking Biffy Clyro fan. Not on. Decent watch. I absolutely love a silk man in the middle of the park and Weighorst is right up there. Hopefully wee Fin carries on as he has as he has the attributes to be there. Pressley was, unsurprisingly, shite. How he had such a career despite being so poor at anything other than kicking it clear 6 yards out is sad. Was fun seeing Mr Burns s ore for United on his 500th appearance. I honestly have no recollection of that guy Manley. Absolutely none. Finally. What a fucking celebration. Choo! Choo! Muthafuckas. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadow Play Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 One thing that stood out was the lack of dayglo coloured clothing in the United end. Anyone got any idea when the wearing dayglo tops and jackets became the fashion at Tannadice? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimi Shandrix Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 Did anyone notice the wee ballboy with the Utd hat on behind the goal celebrating Dundee's first two before very quickly remembering that he probably shouldn't be. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alert Mongoose Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 (edited) I have to be honest and say I had no recollection that Jim Bett played for Utd. Also where did Dundee get Weighorst from? He was a very classy player. Edited April 25, 2020 by Alert Mongoose 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Took me a second to realise who that was! Thankfully he'd cut his hair by the time he signed for us the next season. Very good player, despite his odd running style. He used to get called Jelly Britton for it. He used to always look knackered but was was actually a fit guy (sit down!). In first year English in 1997 we had to do a solo talk on someone we admired. For some reason I did it on Jelly and brought in my Panini sticker of him to accompany said talk. We signed George Shaw the season after. He was average at best by then. Greg Shaw was better (Oli Shaw is his son). I used to think they were brothers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
