I agree it is merely an OK tasting fish. My grandfather, followed by my uncle, had a croft in Sutherland and also worked in a commercial salmon fishery during the summer and would send a dozen wild salmon in a box in ice from Forsinard to Glasgow by rail. My auld man would collect said fish and cut and distribute them amongst his siblings and other deserving members of the Glasgow Gàidhealtachd. And no. I don't see life in sepia tones. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D.A.F.C Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 Possession slow football with no tackles allowed and var is utter shite.Give me 1980s blood and thunder over this any time. There was still utterly brilliant players and the game was much better to watch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say 70s, @Jacksgranda the 40s, some of the others would say 50s or 60s. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D.A.F.C Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 Good point but some time around 2000 it slowed down and went possession based. Plus the rule changes made it less physical. I think that's why Livingston and Leicester did well because they played outside the norm. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't get me wrong, I think we are in the zenith with the players around just now, but most are dedicated athletes, blessed with talent. In those days sublime talent like Willie Morgan or Denis Tueart were alkies cut to pieces by psychotics like Norman Hunter and John Hollins. Happier, simpler days. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I wasn't really being serious. The game is certainly better now the talented players are allowed to do their thing without being hacked down by the cloggers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yer Hunters and Tommy Smiths didn't slow George Best down all that much..Avoiding the psychos was also a talent. Not such a crowd pleaser, but a talent nonetheless. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never got the hate for Nando’s at all. Alright, is there an eaterie called "The Filling Station", or is Throbbette a fan of petrol station sandwiches? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A cloche in a hotel I was in was labelled "hash browns". I never even looked under it. But on the last day, I did and it was full of tattie scones. I've never felt so cheated. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
