And that’s saying something given we’d Curtis ‘XL bully’ Main on our books

I remember Arthur Thomson playing in Hearts (genitive plural apostrophe missed out since Sibo has frocked up the punctuation) brutal back line in the late 1960s. Never have I seen such a big man with such a tiny heid. I think he may have featured in Doctor Who without the need for make-up or prosthetics.

Tate was indeed oddly-shaped - I seem to recall a long body and short legs and stiffer than a morning erection.

I also remember a friend saying to me that he thought he?d be a good addition to the team as I was simultaneously thinking that he was complete shyte.

He ended up worse than I had predicted and I wondered how he?d ever made it as a professional footballer.

No discussion of weirdly shaped footballers is complete without the Albion Rovers squad pic from the mid 80s

Alan Tate....there's a blast from the past.
He was the most oddly shaped footballer I ever saw.

My late younger brother was watching highlights (aye, whatever) of a Hibs v TSMSTID cup replay on the telly when Davie Dodds and Ally Brazil were caught in the same vision clip.

?That?s disgusting?? he opined, ?Kids might be watching this?.

Heids like jigsaw pieces.

And sort out the barstard punctuation symbols, Sibo you idle capitalist shagbag.

There is to be a two part documentary about Fergie on the BBC. It comes to iPlayer on Boxing Day.

I don't know if his time at Pittodrie will get more than a passing mention.

If it's not made by BBC Scotland then I would imagine it being mainly his Man Ure achievements that they go into detail with. Hopefully not.

Hoillet scored for Hibs today, and Scales for the manky paranoid virtue-signalling flat-track bullying establishment w@nx.

Cammy Wilson, on loan from Pittodrie to the Maroon adonises, scored the only goal of the game against Clach today. Looks like a player if he keeps up the form. Former Don Jocky Lawrence?s loon Owen was ref. He gets a lot of stick, but he handled it well, but where the vuck he found about a fortnight?sstoppage time at the end was a mystery, referred to in baroque profanity by Keith?s pugnatious but knowledgable followers.
