The Sunnylaw Jag Posted September 27, 2013 Report Share Posted September 27, 2013 Found this wee gem on You Tube , all the way from 1980. It's played on a muddy pitch with plenty of stramashes with Arthur Montford commentating. Amazingly Thistle manage to get an injury time equaliser. Alan Rough saves a penalty also. Thistle line up is Rough, McKinnon, Whittaker, Campbell, McAdam ( his brother Tom is playing for Celtic), Anderson, Doyle, Jardine, Melrose, O'Hara and Park. Paul Wilson makes a rare appearance for the Jags also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sunnylaw Jag Posted September 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2013 Sadly this one from '75 was posted by the same guy. It sees us get beat 3-2, however if you only watch the first minute we win 2-1. First goal by Joe Craig (Dad of Steven) credited to Doug Somner by Arthur Montford. Then a rare Danny Kellachan goal . . did he ever score another? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Proper football, no holds bars tackles, fantastic saves from Roughie, great passing on a quagmire pitch from both teams, and what a comeback Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitburn Posted September 28, 2013 Report Share Posted September 28, 2013 I couldnt make the match that day but listened to the match live on the radio and was jumpin about when Jimmy scored the equaliser. I was at the 3-2 defeat at Parkhead....we got nothin that day from the ref....the Cellic goalie went up for a cross come shot and as he caught it he clearly steppd over the line by a couple of feet....linesman was in front of the jungle and sh*t it. we shouldnt have lost that game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Stevenson Posted September 28, 2013 Report Share Posted September 28, 2013 RIP Colin McAdam RIP Brian Whittaker RIP John Doyle That's what went through my mind watching that. That and the tackling which would see plenty rolling around, various episodes of handbags and/or the ref being surrounded if they happened today.

Tob Jag Posted September 28, 2013 Report Share Posted September 28, 2013 (edited) I was there! Spotted me and my dad a couple of times and scary that that match was 33 years ago. I had longish hair and was still young and single. Spotted the old tunnel to the enclosure 'Gents' and I'm sure I could smell it Oh and I remembered that we didn't have wash basins in the 'Gents' in the 80's, come to think of it the urinals didn't have urinals it was brick walls I think and I cannot remember anyone complaining in the good old days. Visiting supporters nowadays are just a shower of nampy pampy big girls blouses! They should go to the loo before they leave home like my mummy taught me! and I now teach my grand-daughter.

Charlie Endell Posted September 29, 2013 Report Share Posted September 29, 2013 There was a game around that time v Celtic with a female streaker - anyone remember it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sunnylaw Jag Posted September 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2013 Yeah I remember there was a ladies five a side match at half time and some "big" lassie duly obliged to the moronic chants off " shows yer tits ". This was a few weeks after Erica Roe's streak at an English rugby game. I think we got beat in the game though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotty Posted September 29, 2013 Report Share Posted September 29, 2013 There was a game around that time v Celtic with a female streaker - anyone remember it? At first glance I read that as a female striker and thought "where would we find one that's better than Doolan?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would certainly be straightforward to find one better than Baird. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silvershadow Posted October 2, 2013 Report Share Posted October 2, 2013 Roughie, surely the greatest ever Scottish goalkeeper. Mind you that Mcgrain fella in the wee teams colours was'nt half bad either. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was a few weeks after Erica Roe's streak at an English rugby game. - remember the winning team doing a mini lap of honour in front of the shed (??) and joined in with the green filths 'get yer baps oot for the lads' chanting - well i was a teenager - and she did have a fine pair of whoppers! only time ever I've been happy to join in with one of their ditties Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure that was Alan Rough's testimonial v Celtic? Could be wrong but I was definitely at the game and remember it happening.

Mind you that Mcgrain fella in the wee teams colours was'nt half bad either. In my time of watching football - '78 World Cup onwards - Leighton has been the best Scottish keeper. McGrain was a superb full-back - remember the Panini sticker for the '82 WC describing him as Scotland's only 'world class' player - which was bollocks, as Miller, Souness and Dalglish were also in the squad.
