Yellow Matchwinner top is IMO the clear next in line for a tribute. 

It was a cracker, good memories of wee Ritchie scoring the winner at Ibrox in 1994. The most mental I think I’ve ever gone at a goal in my life, there were bodies everywhere.

I really loved the white and gold in Will Vaulks era

I’ve still got that, the gold on the Puma and Central Demolition has got a bit discoloured but I still love it.

I've realised that I have no specific memorable moments from the season to comment on but I remember loving this top. Would be delighted with a similar away one again.

Not for me. Too "British" for my liking.

Stevie Kirk deliberately leathering the ball into the crowd at Tynecastle as hard as he could, and hitting a wee lassie full in the face.

Again we have a deal with an uanannounced club to take a keeper on loan. The reason I say this will be available on Tuesday (not a signing). Oooh there's a bit of a teaser......

Does anyone speak Swahili?

Just to clarify, the greenie is for the good memory, not for a wee lassie getting smacked in the face.

Tena tuna mpango na klabu ambayo haijatangazwa kuchukua kipa kwa mkopo. Sababu ya mimi kusema hii itapatikana Jumanne (sio kusainiwa). Ooh kuna mcheshi kidogo......

I can remember a yellow Bukta top in those days that was a thing of beauty. There is definitely money to be made in the retro range, older fans like myself who maybe wouldn’t buy current strips are more likely to buy them and the youngsters seem to like them too.

I remember it too as it was the first time I had seen us play in anything other than a combination of Navy Blue, red and white. When I picture it I see "Joe McCallan" wearing it so I`m figuring around 77/78?

If I remember right he did it because of an incompetent referee. I’m sure he ended up in court as well.

I visualise Wilson Hoggan in it, so I'm thinking it would be in his 2nd spell with us whenever that was?

He did, if i mind right the day that Airdrie went into liquidation one of their players done the same thing at Brockville and hit a wee lassie in the face (nothing happened), recall a player getting sent off and I think we won 8- nil (just checked we did)

 I would love to see a retro version of the late 70’s Bukta shirt as a zip top (like the brockville one from this season), especially with continual bukta logo in the thin tramlines down the sleeves (but it was not part of the zip tops back in the day - see team photo).

Although it’s also from a league winning season,  It’s probably due to it being from the first games I was taken to by my Dad and Gramps 🙏🏻

Team photo from the fantastic, better meddle.org.uk.  I also used an image of the top Lewis shared many moons ago to give a better idea of the long sleeves with bukta logo and thin tramlines 🤤
