Many thanks. Sorry for late response...I lost this thread Billy's brother, James, was killed in a mining accident aged 14. 30 August 1895 Fatal Colliery Accident at Uddingston – On Friday, while a boy named James Semple, aged 14, son of James Semple, ostler, residing at Kirkwood, near Uddingston, was engaged guiding bogies in Nackerty Colliery No 3, belonging to the Glasgow Iron and Steel Company, one of the bogies left the rails, knocking away a post, when a large stone fell from the roof, crushing the boy so seriously about the back and chest that he succumbed to his injuries early on Saturday morning.

That is a smashing picture. Took me a while to get my bearings there for a moment. I'm assumining that's London Road school in the background with the old bridge that came down before my time. Embdy any idea when the bridge came down?... |

Dewars is still around (if you look hard enough) I went for an interview at a brand consultancy a wee while ago and the long lost Dewars was in amongst their recent work. Remember White Horse? I was too young to drink it, but I recall seeing bottles strewn around the place. |

Most adults wore a suit, jacket and tie - if they were going out at the weekend. The idea of grown men wearing football strips would have been seen as bizarre. Were they even for sale? The odd kid - yes. But never a grown man. Even scarfs were few and far between - perhaps at Cup Finals you might have seen more colour. I must admit I still find it a wee bit odd to see adults dressed up in football jerseys at matches. I know it's the "fashion" of today - but people did know how to dress in the 1960's.

Anyone over the age of 17 has no business wearing a replica strip. Lest they wish to look foolish. Old retro numbers for playing fives, like the 1980 cup final one or the Lisbon version are accepted as having a certain style. |

The bridge came down in 1983. The Celtic View printed the following: THE BRIDGE O’ER LONDON ROAD For many a year I stood I carried many a load Across the way from Celtic Park The bridge o’er London Road And when the fans approached me They all would raise their eyes They knew when they came near me They were close to Paradise And I’ve seen every manager From Maley to McStay McGrory, Stein and now McNeill The men who led the way The players’ names all are legion They strived with all their might To bring honour, fame and glory To the colours green and white Kelly, Tully, Crum, Deleany They fought through thick and thin King Kenny, Tommy McInally Peerless Patsy, Jimmy Quinn McGrory of the golden head John Thomson’s regal grace Napoleon, Jinky, Yogi The McPhails and the McStays I’ve seen thousands gather In the year of sixty seven When came forth the European Cup With the fans in seventh heaven The Exhibition trophy On their sideboard they can show Likewise the Coronation And nine League flags in a row. Today you’ll never walk alone The fans will loudly sing As they cheer McGrain and Nicholas Burns and Provan on the wing So now my task is over I’ve carried my last load Good luck, thanks for the memories Hail and farewell ! From the bridge o’er London Road |

One of my biggest regrets is that Santos didn't qualify as SA champions that year. Imagine Pele playing at Hampden We would have broken all attendance records.

Sure it was '83? I started going to Parkhead with various family members and with fair regularity around 1980ish and I just can't seem to recall it ever being there. That said, if you are correct then I would have been 10 when it came down, so maybe my memory between ages 6-10 was not the greatest. I thought you were going to say it came down in about 1974 or something like that. |

We would have broken all attendance records.
