Oh no, I can't remember how to spell the name of some rent-a-gob whose name I never see written down, however will I cope with the shame?
Bonner...Bonnar...who cares ! Either way he's an Old Firm obsessed moron who should be nowhere near a supposed 'national' broadcaster.

Why is it such a tense and unfriendly place?
That's Glasgow for you....always been the same. Neds, Bigots & Litter. Which, incidentally, was a proposed but unused title for Hue & Cry's 2nd album.

You've been gifted those chances and missed them. They tore you apart for the second and didn't miss the first chance. That's the difference.
It's alarming not only spending £4m on Starfelt but repeatedly seeing him being bodied and continuing to pick him.
This Postecoglou fella is a mile out of his depth.
Oooh, don't be so condescending !

BBC Scotland Sport should sack with immediate affect and without compensation all ex-professional footballers currently on their payroll. We wouldn't expect a journalist to take a match winning penalty so why do so many in the media think ex-pros can do the job of journalists/reporters ?

They were quite the status symbol before that period, maybe up to about 1974. Mine was a bluey grey. The punk revolution obviously hadn't impacted the St Mirren support at that time.

Boom there it is
There what is ? What else would you consider desirable as a means to separate 5 year olds ? Hair colour ? Skin colour ? Parents political allegiances ?

Is it the blame of Catholic schools yet?
No, however if we were to start a new country from scratch would we consider it desirable from a social harmony standpoint to separate children at the age of 5 on the basis of their parents religion ?

I'm going for Gram & Emmylou's version.
And you'd be correct.

That is a brilliant photo of Souness staring Socrates down. He genuinely looks like Yosser Hughes (or the other way round); Yosser was right all along!
Souness must have really rattled him, they only put four past us !

Nirvana -Nevermind
The Smiths- Meat is Murder
Arctic Monkeys- Favourite Worst Nightmare
Elvis Costello and The Attractions- Armed Forces
Weezer- Pinkerton
Technically correct about Elvis & The Attractions of course but I always think of 'This Years Model' as being Elvis Costello's 2nd LP and it's better than 'Armed Forces ' for me.

I was only 14 at the time, but I remember thinking that Celtic had it won when it turned out to be a Dutch team in the final. I don’t think that any Dutch club side or the national team had done anything of note up until that point. Boy, did things change very, very quickly.
Ajax got to the European Cup final in 1969 and slaughtered Bill Shankley's Liverpool a few years before that.

Ambition is a funny thing, I'm old enough to remember Paul McStay and how many experts wrung their hands over why he never left Celtic and never played in a 'superior' league like the English Premier. He had the talent and I'm sure his choice at remaining wasn't all down to loyalty, I'm sure he was just as ambitious as the next player.
Paul McStay was not as good as the Old Firm sycophants in the Scottish media claimed he was. McStay knew this .

Why is the commentator constantly shouting his head off when nothing is happening and there is no crowd noise?
Because, like 99% of people working for BBC Sport Scotland, he is rubbish at his job.

Yer Celts are officially after tonight, Children of a lesser Vermin ...

I defer to no one in my hatred of both halfs of the vile Old Firm but it is simple fact that Celtic fans, as annoyingly a bunch of deluded arseholes as they are undoubtedly are, do not and would not behave like Rangers fans have tonight. Tonight I must revise my theory of equilibrium...the two clubs are equally vile pieces of vermin..the two sets of fans are not.

Me too. Come on, get it told.
Andy Goram and Neil Lennon walk into a bar . Barman says, "Swally, swally, we will swally vodka, Andy ?" Andy nods. Barman turns to Neil. "Its a grand old team to drink for, Neil ?" . " It most certainly is !", replies Neil in an Oliver Hardy stylee.. It is then the story becomes hazy.....

45 years ago tonight, Dumbarton's Walter Smith bullets a header into his own net to give Hearts the lead in a Scottish Cup semi final replay.
Explain away that one, Chick Young.

I am pretty sure the ground is Love Street and the player is Cammy Murray of St Mirren
Yep, definitely not Airdrie as terracing too big and strip not 'diamond enough'. Also it's never the wrong time to remind everyone that the John Hughes of exposing himself fame is not deemed worthy enough to merit an original nickname.

I was born in 1975 so wasn't attending matches during this era; however, the aspect that stands out for me is how grim the crowd looks, no colours just an industrial mass of humanity probably turned up straight from working in the morning.
Although, I suppose their wouldn't have been much replica shirts back then and even scarves would have been in its infancy.
We do have a tendancy to remember the past fondly but that picture of the 1974 cup final looks grim.
Whilst the English FA Cup has went backwards as a spectacle, I actually think the Scottish version is at its peak presently.
Actually, it would be interesting to see a comparison with the same view from the 1985,1988 and 2005 finals, although obviously the roof will be on in the latter...
I've been to three Scottish Cup Finals, 1970, 1985 & 2005. In 1970 i was nine years old, stood with my dad on the section of terrace pictured in this thread with an attendance of around 109,000 and saw little or nothing of the game. I did however see plenty of men pishing in empty beer cans. Got a stand ticket for 1985 so obviously got to see the game but no great spectacle. By 2005 Hampden all seated and great spectacle but rubbish match. Certainly more sense of occasion brought to the day by the authorities as the years have gone by. However, nothing like the hype that use to accompany the FA Cup Final back in the day. For those too young to recall think coverage of Prince Phil's death transposed to a game of football.

The split is excellent, works really well
Works really well doing what exactly ? I realise it's probably only me but I can't see in what way Scottish football has improved since the splits inception. Or for that matter since the introduction of smaller leagues and playing each other four times a season.
