  1. I was in that building many a time when it was Lion's Coal office. It was quite plush inside. I can remember our coal being delivered by horse and cart. The horses were huge Clydesdales and there was almost a kind of initiation ceremony us boys had to go through and that was to pat the horse. When you're about three years old a big horse like that was frightening.

    Stirrat's Dairies delivered milk by horse and cart too and I remember one day the cart overturned dragging the horse down.It was a big white horse and it got quite badly hurt. There was blood everywhere and a lot of us were nearly hysterical. Amazingly within days it was back at work as if nothing had happened and the scars soon faded.

    my old man worked for the dairy when he was a boy

    his horse was called "teddy"

    told me many stories about the horses ....so funny

  2. Many of you will know this and many of you maybe just walked passed it on a regular basis........

    Its Grade A Listed .....PS Who is represented by the statue in the background?

    PICTURE 10

    know it well walking past it heading to the game down love street way

    trying to remember,is there still a smaller version in the millerston park,behind the old "park bar" enterence

    is it still there?

  3. Good post oaksoft.....the SPL are bieng let off very light by the OF-loving media, as is that ratf"k sausage roll thief fae fife McLeish...and the SFA. They should have been just as aware as the rest of us of the scumgers situation. Instead of tackling it head on they pished away time, effort and money on blah, blah rather than tackling the real issue head on...the imbalance in finances in Scottish football. Divvy up the cash so it reaches more points where it can be used to benefit the game for the most players and the for the most clubs rather than selling scottish footballs soul to a corrupted set of TV watching OF scumbags.

    Maximise the money in football - spread it across the clubs...get players playing competitive football in a competitive league again.

    and yet your head in the sand attitude stance that rankgers will survive because the SPL will make sure of it totally negates your wee rant
