There has to be an investigation into what has gone on with SPFL board, one of which I believe is one of yours, over this whole shambles. We had nothing to gain and you had very little (maybe catching M'well?) but the outcome isn't so much the issue. This process couldn't have been more of a farce if it was directed by Brian Rix. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to love the Brian Rix farces when, I think, they were shown at Christmas and Easter holidays every year in the early/mid sixties. Might be a bit out with my dates, but think it was around then. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd also poll our big pal @Eednudbut he's likely on the Sellick website buying a discounted Neil Lennon onesie which, I think was a sweetner in the deal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to enjoy them too, (The Brian Rix farces), couldn't tell you when they were on, but they were on regularly. Even my mother, not known for her sense of humour, enjoyed them. I wonder how they would go down today? As for the 80s Dons - I very seldom saw them in the flesh, but obviously revelled in their achievements. I sort of knew it was going to be a once in a life time experience, a bit like Hibs famous five era and Hearts mid 50s - very early 60s trophy haul, which in a way made it all the more enjoyable. My father sent me newspaper clippings every week which kept me informed and back in those days I was an avid programme collector and used to get the home and away programmes. I would have tried to catch a game at summer time/Christmas/April when I visited my parents but even in those days I might just have soon fetched up at Borough Briggs. Most of the games I did catch seemed to involve Dundee or Hibs, for some strange reason. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Francey's father was from Ballymena. I think his father was a lay preacher, but I might just have made that up. There are still Franceys in Ballymena, there is a funeral directors called Francey 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any reconstruction will require 11-1 in favour though from the top division teams. Milne may have been a sympathiser but Cormack has his own baws and speaks a lot of sense and is very transparent ( so far anyway). Do keep up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
