That's fascinating. I wonder if the history buffs among us know what game Celtic played immediately after JFK's assassination? Was his death marked in any way at Celtic Park at the first home game in November 1963? Anyone old enough to recall?

Fantastic photo. I used to clamber up that bank when there had been a big crowd and walk along the old railway line to Dalmarnock Road. |

When I lived in Govan my pal's Da had a picture of JFK above his fireplace. Said he bought it from a street vendor at Parkhead the game after Kennedy died. He had that photo on the wall until he died about 5 years back. Must have been tragic news at that time.

There was a photograph of JFK in the old board room at Celtic Park as recently as the 1980's. My young nephew couldn't understand "why?". I didn't bother explaining.

I was at the Kilmarnock game at Celtic Park the day after the JFK assassination and I am fairly sure there was a minutes silence. Gloomy autumn day in more ways than one but football-wise, we gained some revenge for the 6-0 defeat at Rugby Park 8 months earlier when both Jimmy Johnstone and John Cushley made their debuts. Kilmarnock inflicted a few heavy defeats on us in those days. In the corresponding fixture at Rugby Park, in March '64 (nearly a year on from the 6-0 game) they beat us 4-0. The following year they put 5 past us (5-2) at Rugby Park. It is now an old saying, but still true, that everyone knows where they were when they heard the shocking news as it broke on our black and white television screens at tea time on Friday 22 November. In this technological age we are bombarded with instantaneous news, delivered by various technologies. Perrhaps we have become ambivalent to scenes of horror and violence and it is therefore difficult to compare it to any event in recent times. Suffice to say, that the world seemed to stop that night. Even in the heat of the Cold War, the shocking news reached beyond the Iron Curtain and beyond to stun all of the peoples of the world. The sense of shock only deepened when the very public nature of the assassination was revealed. Not long after the events in Dallas, the regular Friday evening "Supporters Club" column in the Evening Times had a new entry under "Rangers" - "Harvey Oswald Loyal - bus leaves etc." |
