    I had that strip as a lad. Cracking strip apart from the shorts being extremely see through.

     

    Is that Davie Cattannach in the front row. Hes still got the same hair do today.

    yes that's Davie. I have fond memories of that squad - first one I knew very well and can name probably 3/4 of them.

    Almost isn't an achievement...

    Its the last seasons events which took our club 3 yr to recover from in bringing the club back to the fans. It was us and them for a long time, never mind the financial mess, tho we had a managing director signing anything, which gives Hughes some leeway, but he signed players on big bucks who had no resale or clubs willing to take them off our hands when it was clear they didn't improve us.

    Hughes gets 100% respect as a player, his management not as high on the spectrum due to the start and the end, tho it was bad season, good season, bad season, good season, bad season and that pattern has followed him.

     

    Bottom line is we were in the Premier. Dont give 2 f*cks about good season bad season. Not his fault about financial problems.

    Fabulous team with Arfield, Wallner and Aafjes on the bench!

    Remember thinking even during his brief cameo appearance that Wallner looked a player, would love to know what the problem was that stopped him getting a game.

    This was the beginning of the end for the Gretna nonsense, absolutely pumped on day one and it didn't get any better for them.

    Happy days - and some people still give Hughes no credit whatsoever for where he took us, including a cup final and almost top 6

    Hmm let's see what's more likely? Houston refused to play Aird due to him being a brainless sectarian biggot or because he was so good he was afraid to lose him for free.................

    Enjoy your new signing Pars. Wouldn't expect much on the days after old firm games though when he turns up for training half cut with a fresh 1690 tattoo across his forehead still wearing a bright orange tracksuit. 

    I'll take Harris thanks.

    yup - I don't want anyone like that playing for my club. Bet you he scores against us though!
