We gave them a 3-0 shoeing at their crumbling asbestos-heavy midden in September 1985 when they had Hugh Burns and Craig Paterson sent off. Tattie wound up their West Enclosure nutjobs that afternoon to the extent that they attempted a pitch invasion. They were fined for this infraction, but somehow so were we. Cnuts.

Burns tackle on Hewitt was only 'bettered' by Cleland? on Del Pierro. Totally halved after being ripped to shreds by JH thankfully Hewitt was fine which made Burns 'tackle' slap stick - hopefully that's what his entire career is remembered by - further contrast to our no. 11.Originally posted by 57vintage View Post
I have heard, unsubstantiated, rumours that Glasgow's finest came into the changing room at half time to ask Fergie to go easy in the second half for fear of a riot. I do remember a glass ashtray being launched onto the pitch from the enclosure - who the fck takes an ashtray to the fitba?Comment

Possibly nicked from a local bar that accommodated them pre match, which was likely the Torry Bar.Originally posted by DonUnder View Post
Delivering papers to that place when they were up was an eye opener for a 13 year old.Comment

A mind this game clear as ony. Ah wis a 'golden goal' ticket seller .... which earned ma nae commission, but Ah usually got a free seat in the stand.
A certain Archibald McPherson strolled by, and Ah asked him if he wanted a golden goal ticket. He raked 10p oot o' eez pocket, and said tae ma as Ah handed him his ticket ... "There'll be no goals today son". ..
Ah was still smirkin' aboot his comment as Ah headed up Merkland Road efter the game, and was approached by a typically inebriated hun fa wished me "a sh!te xmas and a p!shy new year" .... ... Ah didna respond ... ither than tae keep smilin'.

Nae starting a new thread for this, but I was listening to the choir at my kid's school this morning and they finished wi a rendition of the Shady Mo chant
- well, the original song, I suppose. Onybody ken it? Sounded like it might have been Bella Ciao
Edit: could have just searched, I suppose! Bella Ciao, a song dedicated to the Italian resistance. Quality.Last edited by Jormungand; 26-06-2025, 11:08 AM.Comment

It is good to know that they are fixing a major design flaw from their original project.Originally posted by swaddon2 View Post
Well done to Dave Cormack, Tom Crotty etc for another cash injection to fund this happening.
They are making the club strong financially and they have my respect in those regards.
The next step is getting a better stadium. It shouldnÂ’t be too difficult to provide the best stadium ever in Scottish football.Comment

Changes to our youth set up.

There's been no news of a match arranged for 19th July, as far as I can tell. We might have to play with ourselves.Originally posted by swaddon2 View PostComment

Seven people have been charged with a hate crime after the chants aimed at a St Mirren supporter last season.Comment

Given the song book of the hun fans it is "interesting" that Dons fans are the ones charged by the police with a hate crime. Hate crime is defined by malice or ill will towards a social group...Comment
