Motherwell will return to action as the winter break ends with a fourth round cup tie against Dundee. There was no more significant meeting with the Dark Blues than the Hampden meeting in 1952. - External Link

I'm jammed against the traffic lights at the corner of Merry Street and Brandon Street - behind Willie Kilmarnock. The team was going to Robb's tearoom, from which the photographer would take the picture. My grandfather wouldn't take me to Hampden - he'd suffered a couple of disappointing defeats in cup finals and thought he was a jinx, so he did a Sailor Hunter and stayed away. So that was me dished. How much a nine - year - old would have seen in that crowd is a moot point, but I'd definitely have gone!Quote:
