  1. How old are the guts on this Forum? All the talk of Ferranti Thistle and Alan Kellachan makes it sound as if all the contributors are experienced fans. I remember being at the Ferranti game with my Dad (I was 9 years old) and I remember it was a Sunday as my Mum wouldn't talk to us for days for going to a match on a Sunday. I didn't recall how many goals we scored but I do remember the reaction of the Ferranti players when they scored near the end, you would have thought they had won the World Cup!
  2. and bags I go Stewart Kennedy, oh! wait a minute.......
  3. I wonder if Craig "no strikers2 Levein watched the U-21s play? 2 wingers on our team (at the same time) and what an entertaining match it was.
  4. Quentin Jacobs and Maradonna (or maybe Brian Laudrop)
  5. I hope everybody at the What a Sensation night had a brilliant time. Too far away to be there but I enjoyed reliving the moment, the neighbours were wondering why I had red, yellow and black balloons all over the place as nobody in AFL plays in these colours, well they know now! Congratulations and happy anniversary to all Thistle fans everywhere!
  6. Should run out to the old "Its A Knockout" theme tune and probably have Stuart Hall do the match commentary also. Now that would bring the crowds back!!
  7. There is nobody in the Hall of Fame that I would argue about and yes I am sure there will be room for my favourites; Alan Rough Jackie Campbell Andy Anderson Jim Melrose Bobby Houston plus all the 71 team Plenty of time for the heroes of yesteryear
  8. I agree with the comments above. Levein is fortunate to have a few more decent players to choose from than other recent managers, well reasonably good midfielders at any rate. I think we failed to qualify as Levein was too scared, imagine anybody else in the world, anywhere, ever, going to play a game with no strikers, that is criminal and he should have been booted immediately for that. However, he wasn't and we will have to live with it for longer. I don't see Craig Brown's optimism for the next World Cup qualifiers, I think all the teams including Wales could beat us. Oh! well! Roll on 2018 in Quatar!
  9. First match was 0-0 vs Dundee in 1971, shortly after Cup Final. Game was on Sportscene that night, as were all Scottish First Division games. I think my first away match was vs Dumbarton in the same season, and first European game was vs Honved! Those were the days my friends I thought they'd never end (that could be a song!!) but they did, and shortly afterwards!
  10. Barbie at the Bing is a great idea. There is no Health and Safety legislation that says this can't happen, it just needs to be planned. Events such as this are stopped because folk are scared somebody gets injured ans sues, its all about covering backsides and has nothing to do with health and safety! It would be a great event!
  11. I agree, Iwulemo's attempt takes some beating but close contenders include Roy Aitken (Scotland vs Uraguay, can't remember which World Cup) or Billy Bremner (Scotland vs Brazil, 1974 World Cup).
  12. John Arrol, seem to remember him getting injured vs Motherwell but was a great goalie! Jackie Campbell really should have played for Scotland, more recently, certainly Quinten Jacobs and Peter Lindu. The bold Chic as mentioned earlier, should have done much better but we haven't really had anybody of any class for a while!
  13. Very sad to hear of his death! He was in my opinion the best commentator on radio. His crescendo of excitement as the ball reached the half way line would suddenly burst with a " deary, deary me...disaster for Scotland" What a legend!
  14. I will readily admit to being middle aged and not I think I must be more than a bit thick, I didn't understand any of the above!
