Was still at high school, and remember vividly the carnage in that end! Good times. Fozzy definitely deserves the 'cult hero' tag. I believe he ended up working as a postie post-football. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranaldo Bairn Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 Foster was utterly useless at Falkirk in Bannon's "Embra Auld Crocks XI" he tried to assemble. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was utterly useless 90% of the time at Hearts too to be honest. I can't remember him being at Falkirk?! I can picture him in a Partick Thistle top but can't remember him at all being a Bairn. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranaldo Bairn Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 96/97 along with Berry, Mitchell, Tortolano, Nelson... 10 (5) apps, 1 goal*, get lost. *the goal was against Clydebank in Chris Waddle's debut. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do remember the trend of a lot of ex-Hearts players ending up at Falkirk, and even more so - Airdrie. Chris Waddle at Falkirk eh... mental. I loved Waddle as a player. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I felt he was very pedestrian, sideways and backwards and slowed us down greatly, a bit like Perry Kitchen (shudder), albeit better than Perry, but wouldn't even make the bench with today's squad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a Hearts fan with no allegiance at all to Dundee Utd I’d suggest the ultimate cult hero across Scottish fitba as the aforementioned Davie Bowman. More famous (infamous?) for his disciplinary record than his football ability but loved for it. Took up floristry after he retired. True story. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raidernation Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 Surely..... Davie Dodds, "The Elephant Man" but a decent goalscorer for every team he played for. Loved him at the Dons, hated him at the DABS 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Played a season for Dunbar United after leaving Partick Thistle. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Met him in a pub that he owned in Renton, Dumbartonshire. You had to be seriously hard to run a pub in Renton! Also played for Third Lanark IIRC. What about Connor Sammon for Killie? Remember hearing the Killie fans shouting " Feed the fish". For St.Mirren, has to be Charlie Adam. Nae pace but very, very gifted. Remember him scoring against us from the halfway line when playing for Dundee. That goal and the one Zerouali scored from a free kick were the only goals where I witnessed St.Mirren fans applauding an opposition goal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loved him at the Dons, hated him at the DABS He's still a massive bevvy merchant. No wonder his foray in pub ownership ended up somewhat unsuccessful. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
