I had a look for Nottingham Forest badges and couldn't find one that matched that - assumed it was Forest, as it definitely wasn't Arsenal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same badge in this pic of Lochgelly born Bob McKinlay who played 614 league games for Forest from 1951-1969 and he was a youth player there from 1949-1951. Won the FA Cup in 1959. Centre half and Forest’s record appearance holder. Only senior club he played for. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That photo with St John is, I would quess by the hair from 1969 or 1970. Shankly clearing the snow is 1964.

It is Forest, and has to be the late 60s at least, as I think the number 11 is Welshman Ronnie Rees, who was a great winger. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dundee Hibernian Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 50 minutes ago, Specky Ginger said: Hamish showing Harry Kane how it's done End of the season match, but one United had to win to have a chance of staying up (75-75). Finished 2-0, other goal from Henry Hall. He started his senior career at Stirling Albion, but had a fantastic scoring record at Muirton. The Hamish penalty was his first senior goal, and he took another a week later in a crucial match at Ibrox, that in itself unusual in that an away team was awarded a penalty there. He missed, but United stayed up on goal difference above relegated Dundee. Henry Hall had signed for United in 1975, to give hairstyling tips to manager Jim Mclean. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tamthebam Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 I remember Henry Hall as Forfar manager. His Loons team weren't too bad. The Board sacked him and brought in Paul Hegarty who turned them into a bunch of cloggers.. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The end of the season was a highlight for United. At one stage they went 13 league games without a win, but gained a win and then a draw to stay up in the last two games against Hibs and Rangers. Aberdeen were dreadful in the last period of that season until they beat Hibs, who by the last few matches had secured third place, by virtue of a good run prior to their last two fixtures against United and the Dons. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My lasting memory was a 50-60 yard cross field pass from Dalglish to some Liverpool player. Killie then knocked St Mirren out of the Scottish Cup the next month at Love Street, which was great as I went to school in Paisley at the time.
