Great wee player who deserved a lot more reward out of the game. At the 1st league home game of the season, hopefully a min applause will be held for him Classic. Souness was a sub , and Aber gave D Cooper a bad one. Souness said "Ibrox Abercromby , wait till Ibrox" and Aber replied , "Get yourself on here now , never mind Ibrox" ! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s the Aber I remember, he had absolutely no fear of any one in the game, even guys like Souness with his big hard man reputation. It has to be said that away from the game he was a total gent. I hope the club honour his memory with a fitting tribute in the new season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was this not Aber taking retribution on Cooper for some disgraceful comments towards Fitzy that occurred in a previous game? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShaggerG Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 Very sorry to read of Billy Abercromby's death. Great player. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lola montez Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 (edited) The first home game will be the Conference League game which is fitting, we’ll give him a good send off. Met him once when he was in a particular low and was so pleased he was doing some hospitality work and had been back at the club. RIP Aber Edited June 19 by Lola montez 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It turns out you just can’t trust Everything Scotland’s ability to understand international time zones, eh?

Maybe Valur can sneak through…. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its strange they have the Scandinavian teams unseeded yet teams from Andorra and the like seeded. No idea how they work it out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hendo Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 Other thing we need to watch is the capacity at some grounds - Cliftonville is only 3000, Valur only 1600. We might all struggle to get tickets, so for that reason my preference would be Brann or Hacken, even if it means we get papped out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ground only holds about 6000 (so maybe 800 tickets at most I think) and we wouldn't be favourites. Edited June 19 by Turkmenbashi 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
