Morton Ayr United Dumbarton Nice to see a couple of the more fashion conscious Morton players rocking the white Hummel boots look. The Sons photo was taken before our League Cup sectional tie at Tynecastle. Highlights were shown on the BBC, but they haven't reached You Tube. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyrshireTon Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 Always liked this one. Wednesday 26th April 1978 and the penultimate game of the season in the 1st Division has just finished with a 3-1 home win over Airdrie. This means that Morton could finish no lower than 2nd and had earned promotion to the top 10 (Premier Division) for the first time. Kit man Willie Gray is seen celebrating at full time, standing on the dug-out wall. Behind him is the directors box. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The programme editor was probably confused when the guy to KW's right shared his Christian name and to his left shared his surname. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was signed to replace Stan Bowles who had been sold to QPR. Wilson was dreadful for Carlisle which given his scoring record at Dumbarton was a surprise in many ways.

I did a blog post about him and the Carlisle move a few years ago clicky. Kenny was never a Stan Bowles but for us he was deadly in the 18 yard box. He went from Carlisle to York City and from there to Workington Town. I think he ended his career in the juniors. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great article. I love the Carlisle fans describing Wilson as being "fookin roobish" Thanks for posting the link. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyrshireTon Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 This is a photo from our 1969 Scottish Cup semi-final. The opposition is Celtic - Gerry Sweeney tackling John Hughes. The un-Morton looking kit was worn purely to annoy Celtic. When we played Rangers that season we were sent out in lime green shirts. Hal Stewart was the original troller. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watched Falkirk grind out a 1-1 draw there to win the league. The Bankies had a storming team back then with Davie Cooper and John Henry. The Clydebank fans applauded Falkirk winning the league and didn't give a f**k about a pitch invasion from Falkirk fans. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

latapythelegend Posted December 24, 2016 Share Posted December 24, 2016 Aye this!! Used to go to the Graeme Hotel before the game with my dad, uncle and grandpa. They would have a few pints and always leave at about 2:55 with me itching to get there thinking I was going to miss something. My dad would lift me over the turnstile with the blessing of the 'ticket collecter' then it was a pish against wall once in the ground, lined up with guys who have broke the seal. My dad and that would stand at the top of the cooperage lane terrace behind the goals and I would be allowed to stand down at the corner spot of that stand against the advertising boards but report back to them at half time. Probably a load of tl;dr here, but those memories as a boy were fantastic. My childhood memories at Brockville were just that. Word for word. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a pity you guys couldn't have taken that covered terrace for opposite the main stand at TFS really. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
