Interesting feature about 1971 and the big night coming up on the SFL website: http://www.ptfc.co.uk/news/2011-2012/october_2011/what_a_sensation_sfl_interviews_mcparland_rae_and_mcquade

 

 

"...McQuade turned out to be as mesmerising off the pitch as he was on it with McParland saying: “I was told that Denis would have me tearing my hair out at times and that is what happened. He turned up at training once with long hair and a moustache and I told him that was not appropriate for a professional footballer. He told me that he could not be denied his idiosyncrasies and I told him not to use big words!”"

:D

A wee bit early but...

 

Sergeant Davie’s League Cup Winning Team

(To the tune of Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band)

 

 

It was forty years ago today,

Sergeant Davie told the team to play

They'd been beating teams in super style

Now they’d have to go the extra mile.

So may I introduce to you

The red and yellow Firhill boys,

Dave McParland’s League Cup winning team.

 

 

We're Sergeant Davie’s League Cup Winning team,

We pumped the Celtic from the start,

We're Sergeant Davie’s one and only League Cup Winning team,

We did it all with skill and heart.

Alan, John and Jackie, Denis, Frank and Alex

Bobby Lawrie on the wing,

Jimmy, Hugh and Ronnie, Alex Rae our captain,

Oh how you heard the Jags fans sing.

 

It's wonderful to be here,

It's certainly a thrill.

You're such a shit hot football team,

We'd like to take you home with us,

We'd love to take you home.

 

I don't really want to stop the show,

But I thought that you might like to know,

That the Jags are running riot here,

And it’s back to Firhill for a beer.

So let me introduce to you

The greatest team in historee

Dave McParland’s League Cup Winning team,

I've got a ticket for this and was thinking of taking my 4 year old who i take to firhill with me. I was wondering if anyone knows if there's going to be much for the kids to do? I would like to take her along with me but if shes bored it will be a nightmare!!

 

My 3 yr old son will be there, so at least she'd have another child to play with in.

 

I was given tickets for another show that night as a gift...........I've taken the decision that this is a night not to be missed. Just not telling my sisters as they will be so angry! :P
