SS-18 ICBM Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 You'd think with all those "Scotland's greatest" type players Rangers had in those days that they'd be skelping Celtic and winning everything, wouldn't you? Indeed! Willie Henderson played for Rangers 1960-1972 and would have been in his prime at Rangers in 1967 when Celtic won every competition that they entered. Henderson watched Celtic's Glory Years, i hope he appreciated it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhiteRoseKillie Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Sounds about right for his talent. OK so I know he's a Celtic 'icon' but couldn't lace Henderson's boots. Lucky wee fucker I'd say. Yeah he "lucked" his way to a European cup and everything. Good job he was a Catholic. Saved Rangers having to bother. I saw Henderson and Johnstone play. Henderson was very very good. Johnstone was a magician. Tommy McLean - there was a talent ruined..... And Davie Provan.... And Gordon Smith..... And Kris Boyd..... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am of the view that the single biggest factor was Large John. I think that player-for-player we were Celtic's equal or superior in that era but Jock was a manager par excellence and deserves all the plaudits. This may not go down well with fellow-Bears but I think Jock should be regarded as the best manager of a Scottish team since Bill Struth. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SS-18 ICBM Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Did Chico Green say that Sevco are making a loss this season? 40,000 punters most weeks and they still make a loss! That is fucking abysmal! If they're getting 40,000 punters in most weeks and they can't assemble a squad within budget, to win the 3rd fucking Division, then they should just give up. Yes he did. But no need for concern, he is going to use those losses to finance the upgrading of Aye-Broke Stadium to 60,000 capacity before his new club succeed in winning promotion to the Scottish Premier League. Every day is a good news day in Orcland. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In answer to your whistling question;Cooper was not bigoted to Catholics,i knew him,used to have a few pints in Tennents,Byres Road with him and another Rangers player in the early 80s,liked a punt on the horses but had no time for those fuckers from Coatbridge. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
