  1. Apart from those outside the club who are trying to get back inside the club ?
  2. Bollocks. Wardrop is dragging the clubs name through the mud for selfish reasons. He thought he could resign from the board , and then call them out , and everyone would swallow it. Trouble for him is , everyone who has seen how he operates knows he's an arsehole , a dangerous arsehole at that.
  3. That's what I've been saying all along , if he doesn't get his own way the toys are out of the pram. He shouldn't be anywhere near SMISA . I have resisted the thought of ending my association with SMISA even although there's been some bad press , I think basically the money being used for club related projects is a great thing , but if AW and the likes get involved , I'll be gone , and so will several others I have discussed this with !
  4. If it had been anyone else apart from Wardrop I may have shown a bit of concern , but he's a self-serving idiot that I pay no heed to !
  5. I'm still a member . Wardrop is full of shit , there are two sides to every story , and we're only hearing his side !
  6. Assuming that the reported interest in Jacob Bedeau , is as a replacement for Dunne ?
  7. Dallas on VAR again , and the quite hopeless McLean is the ref , on that basis alone , I think we're f**ked !
  8. Bobby and Graham both worked in Raymel's in the 60s , Tommy Taylor owned the business , his sons were Raymond , Melvin and Vance !
  9. Raymel's in St James St for me back in the 60s , remember looking at the pics while waiting to get taken , and wondering what a "Tony Curtis flat-top" was?
  10. He played in the centre of a back three , as he has been doing recently with us !
  11. I'm surprised Robinson is persisting with Taylor tbh , I know being left-sided he should give us balance but he just doesn't look up to it.
  12. Without doubt , Rangers were a really poor outfit at that time and we played them off the park , but the longer it went without us converting a chance the more we were handing it to McGinlay to do the dirty on us , which he did. I remember hearing a recording of the radio commentary and even they were baffled at the decision. I hoped I would, one day, get a chance to tell BM that he had cheated us , and at Glasgow Airport in 2006 I got that chance, and he didn't attempt to deny it !
  13. Taken before LC Tie v Dundee Utd in August '69 . Don't know what went down , but Bobby Duffy and Archie McCuaig never played another game for the club !
  14. Reminds me of an old ,now late, friend , Neil Gribben. They had a good jukebox in Dusty's , which I always thought was a waste , 'cos the place was usually empty. One Friday, mid 70s , we had been out all day , went in there and Neil played a song on the Jukey called 16 Bars. I said , the Stylistics ???? He said "Aye , this is the 16th bar we've been in today " !
  15. Tony was gone by then , he played against us that season for QOS.
  16. Expensive defeat v Cowdenbeath in December '71. We lost Andy McFadden with a bad injury in the first minute and lost a goal straight away and didn't recover . Cammy Murray , Dave Millar , Dan Stevenson, Gordon McQueen , Billy McDerment for us and Dave Cairns and Billy Mullen for Cowden !
  17. I see talk that Joe is leaving at the end of the window for an Irish club , staying for now until injury suspension situ is resolved !
  18. Good to see it's a "proper" last 16 , and already looks like a tourney worth winning !
  19. I complimented the team v Celtic for the way we managed the injury time , but kicking the ball away etc is always giving the ref scope to add more time , and when Clark comes up with the luckiest finish of all time we're punished for not seeing it out properly !
  20. Hibs are truly awful , which shows just how bad a performance that was from us at Easter Road , needs turning around quickly , or it's going to the same old survival story !

    Mr Gilmour

    When Div spoke with him last week , SG said he had no intention of doing that !

    Mr Gilmour

    I won't be cancelling either. I didn't vote for Mr G , but he's in now and we'll just need to see how things move forward , cancelling at the moment is jumping the gun imo !
  23. we only had him towards the end of his career, he had been a team mate of Alec Wright at Firhill . Played a few games , came on for Jim Blair in the 1-0 v Rangers in '68 and frustrated them by getting on the ball and taking it for a walk late in the game when they were looking to get the ball in the box. Biggest claim to fame , scored home and away for the Arabs v Barcelona !
