Legend of the Fernhill Loyal!
A big squad of the Fernhill guys used to sit/stand behind me in the EE around that time.

Don’t forget the mad drum he used to bring ?
My fondest memory too. Great times.He was constantly on the go, starting chants like ’can you hear the enclosure sing?’, they would reply with ’Nutter, nutter give us the Sash’.
Ooft!!, some days them, what a squad lol.A big squad of the Fernhill guys used to sit/stand behind me in the EE around that time.
Rare blood disorder which plays havoc with his body temperature. Last time i saw CN in Magaluf in the bronze bar i think, I'm sure he had back problems and struggled when walking and was waiting for an op. Hope that went well for him too.Sure I’ve read on here he had a condition which meant he never felt the cold.
How true that is I have no idea.
Thought he was away before they seated the EE, remember him from standing in the EE.Brings back great memories of the 9 years, sat in the EE and the laugh you would get from the CN was something else.
Can't keep a good man down, if Alistair Hood can't beat him then a mere virus has no chance. Great to see him on the way back. I was also a team mate of the Rude Boy, Saturday mornings & Afternoon and a Sunday afternoon as well, I stayed with his brother Frank in the Dam when over for the Feyenoord game and he said Geo was back in Scotland, Bet he wishes he had stayed in Magaluf. On the Chesterfield thread I said John Greig jumped into the crowd right beside me & my mate, said mate was Geo, He was just a Nutter then cos we were never in the Copland was mainly the EE.Wee George, former team mate of mine.
Cracking goalie for a smout.
He used to play with his Rangers earrings in.
Naked bear from Ayr - he had a condition that he never felt the cold
Had a chuckle at that, as did ISpeedy recovery CN
Always remember watching him at games when I was younger.
Sometimes the only thing worth watching.
Tbf he would have been looking at it from a crowd safety point of view rather than trying to be a killjoy.I remember reading an interview with CN in FF not long after he got huckled by Hood. He actually said Hood was an OK guy. Very magnanimous of him given the way he was hounded for merely singing at a match.
Burnside/Blairbeth?Can't keep a good man down, if Alistair Hood can't beat him then a mere virus has no chance. Great to see him on the way back.

Even 25-30 years later I won’t have anyone defending Alistair Hood. Enemy of the fans.Tbf he would have been looking at it from a crowd safety point of view rather than trying to be a killjoy.
What I always remember was that split moment of near silence as he absolutely belted out a number. Something the Union Bears would be proud of, made for each other.Imagine now with the nutter leading thousands of Union Bears in song. Brilliant.
Hood was the architect of the "pay up, sit down, shut up, now leave" philosophy. He was the ultimate killjoy. Possibly as a consequence of Hillsborough some say, but he was arch killjoy even before that terrible day.Tbf he would have been looking at it from a crowd safety point of view rather than trying to be a killjoy.
