Jaggernaut Posted January 19, 2023 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2023 I'm sure that everybody who was there remembers this game clearly. Brucking filliant, it was. Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaggernaut Posted January 19, 2023 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2023 Here's a question, looking again at the photie I just posted. Genuinely interest in answers: How good a captain was Alex Rae for us? My own opinion is that he had two great seasons, namely 70-71 and 71-72. Then it was time maybe to move on.

lady-isobel-barnett Posted January 19, 2023 Report Share Posted January 19, 2023 Alex was a cracking captain. He also played in a position that suits captaincy. But as the team got that bit older and more experienced he was maybe that bit less crucial to the squad. Felt at the time he maybe left a bit early but in hindsight it was probably the correct decision. We rode our luck a tad back then losing Alex and then Davie McP. Fortunately we had quite a few aspiring leaders on the pitch and Mr Auld appeared on the scene. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ETA: I'd even make a guess and say that's Flanagan with his hands on his hips, in the distance.

Jaggernaut Posted January 24, 2023 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2023 Looks like a penalty, or else a "blunder" by the goalie. In either case, the two Jags players standing with hands on hips seem not to be surprised.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
