Yes. 100%. It's Paul McGrath. :thumbsup:
i posted earlier about this pic ,why was Tommy Burns not in it ,was he married that summer?
think that's possibly correct...one of his obituaries says he was married for 28 years...


either that or a contractual dispute with the club??

Johnny Bonnar's bar 1976

Spooky or what?????!
what address/street is that??
It is/was on Gallowgate and Orr street says the photo I was looking at.

I thought the London Road answer was supposed to be the right one and I was just going to question it as, at one time (60s), I could name all the pubs from Brigton Cross to Glasgow Cross and didn't recognise that one, or the building.
And there were loads of pubs in that stretch of road.

Keep up with the thread !

A few pages back it was said that both Tommy and Roddy MacDonald were in dispute with the club. They were Celtic's first ever out of contract players in the summer of 1980.

McNeill refused to play them and that's why they are not in the pic. They both signed new contracts in early August.

If only it was that easy now.

Ha !

Glasgow was a depressing place back then :(
That's what my son just said.

He loves Glasgow and wants us to move up, but he says that Glasgow "in the olden days was the biggest dump in Europe"

A tad harsh, but a grain of truth...
there are plenty of shampooeholes even today worse than Glasgow was Wilfred.

I was working in Sheffield about 10 years ago now, and it still looked worse than Glasgow in the 1970s. I can only imagine what that place was like in the 1970s, let alone places like Birmingham.

What Glasgow was though was a dirty city, soot filled. It took the early 80s and the introduction of sand-blasting equipment to bring colour back to the City.

I have to say that despite living in a number of other places, and visiting tons of countries/cities through work, I always love coming back to Glasgow, and thats despite having plenty of huns in it. Its a cracking place to be young, probably not so good to be when youre looking for a good job, a great place to be raising a young family, and great for retiring.

In summary, GTF out in your early 20s and go back at least a decade after!

But to my six year old boy, Glasgow in the 70s looks like something from the moon.

Looking back at the area I grew up, I am surprised at how I didn't notice how derelict it was. Literally gap sites a crumbling buildings on three out of four sides.

It just never occurred to me at the time. Even when I moved to a more affluent area in my mid-teens I never gave it much thought.

I would agree that it is a great place to grow up in, and I am not far from the stage where I could move back mortgage free and stick some money in the bank for a pension. Feck the job. I'd happily trade working in the stress of London for half the cash in Glasgow and a bit more quality of life.

My son is keen. I have a few years to work on the wife I reckon...
