Jaggernaut Posted May 4, 2013 Report Share Posted May 4, 2013 A brilliant read. He even looks a bit like Erskine! Interesting to read him knowing the "mystique" of Thistle, and Ian McCall the other day saying that it was a "magical" club. I guess there just must be something special about us!

kni Posted May 4, 2013 Report Share Posted May 4, 2013 Great stuff. The hat-trick against the Arabs is my favourite McQuade memory after his Cup-final goal. I stood almost behind him for each of those headers. Every one a corker! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Camallain Posted May 4, 2013 Report Share Posted May 4, 2013 The article mentions Denis's goal from the half way line against Montrose. I was there that day back in 1970, I was only a kid and it was only my fourth or fifth Thistle game but I remember that goal like it was yesterday....stunning, absolutely stunning! Had Pele scored that goal for Brazil you would be sick of seeing it on the TV but it was Denis at Firhill with no TV cameras which is a crying shame. A few years back I actually got an opportunity to speak to Denis and I brought up the subject of his wonder strike against Montrose.......................he couldn't remember it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
