Ahhh…what a day that was.

 

[davyloyal]

So Ronald Koeman was a cleaner at Ibrox? Every day’s a school day.

Was staying in a b&b in Troon late eighties when I arrived back after work a couple were registering in.
The following morning I asked the owner if the couple who came in last night were called Personn which she confirmed.
When I came back that night she said she told the Personn's I recognised him.
His wife apparently said I told you they would remember you.

When first joining the club known as Orange Pearson

Caldow was the captain, but this pic is of Baxter, is it not?

Eric Caldow had returned the team not long before, but Jim Baxter was captain that day when we beat Celtic 2-1 with two goals by Jim Forrest.

No what i found strange was we had 105k at the Morton Final Then the next season final against Celtic and it had 91k

45 years ago today Davie Cooper joined his boyhood Heroes from Clydebank for a not insignificant fee of £100,000

Which Scottish Cup final was this?

1961-1962 v St. Mirren

 

[Yoga Bear]

After the Morton league cup final.
Forrest scored four and Wiilloughby the other.

That was some competition for Jim Forrest. He scored 16 goals in 10 games in 63/64, 18 in 10 in 64/65, 10 in 10 in 65/66 and 6 in 7 in 66/67. Only one of these 50 goals was a pen.

Unbelievable stats and we got rid of him.
As I’ve said before,it changed the clubs history,Forrest leaving.

Maybe it is because the 1961-62 Cup Final win was the first that registered in the mind of the young TMC (who was left at home while his Dad was away to Hampden on the day) but the photos of the lap of honour and previous photos of the goals scored that day and the team group with a somewhat pensive Harold Davis at the end of the line, are quite special to me.

 

[Rangerista]

10 of us from Bellshill went on the KP buses.

KP too, my mate and I got left behind, but that's a story for another time.

Edit: For another time, another place actually, the following round in Cologne!

I remember that.
Nearly missed the bus myself!

 

[Alex Venters]

What might have been.

Hounded out of Scotland by pure jealousy

Biggest mistake any board of Directors made in our long history,knee jerk reaction to Berwick, history tells us,handed the initiative to the other mob,which IMHO,we still suffer to this day.

I’ve saved a few of those pics for future use. Todays project was a wee tribute to Nothern Ireland legend Billy Bingham who I saw had died today.

Was there no commemorative writing round the badge that year?

 

[RabSpackman]

Nearly 30yrs on it really is a case of, “what could have been”.

Arguably didn’t help himself in some ways but up against it from the start - the local media were determined to drag him down a peg or two from the off.

Would he have turned into the utter force of nature that led Everton & Newcastle for years if he had stayed in Glasgow? It’s one for debate.

Can you imagine the in-form Ferguson playing up from with Laudrup alongside him and Gascoigne feeding him though?

 

[Alex Venters]

Don't think so. He was off the pitch for an extended period before returning as you see him.
Played like the DJ of old that day.
