You've got a great memory! accurate in every detail. By some distance, the maddest night watching Celtic in UK (tho a pale second to Turin 81). It was the fence going down - and spear throwing - that was the trigger for all the Burnley fans to get onto the pitch. It as the only place that was safe. Loads of Celtic buses went down early to Blackpool for a drinkfest and then to Burnley. It as the huts selling beer that stunned everyone - at that point in Scotland, fans used to sneak drink into grounds by sticking cans of lager down the football socks under their baggy jeans. At Turf Moor you could buy it in plastic beakers. The place went into meltdown. Burnley were not really known by Celtic fans then but they had a nasty rep which got worse in 80s |

I remember going to school and the Govan Harp bus was just leaving the Harmony Bar. When they came back they were raving about it. Drink, theft, fighting.....they thought it was magic Our supporters have softened a good bit since then. Back in the day we had a severe reputation. |

I travelled down to Burnley on the football special ,as you say the train was stoned [more ways than one] and it seemed on the way to the ground there was pockets of Burnley fans with bricks and stones lobbing them at Celtic fans ,there was also loads of graffiti of the not to pleasant variety aimed at the Celtic fans,but I think the Burnley mob quickly realised they had bitten off more than they could chew.The huts outside I actually at first thought they wher selling programmes and stood for 20 mins before I twigged it was actually bevvie they where selling.Inside the ground im sure Celtic fans where at each end of the ground with the majority of Burnley fans under the big shed in the middle ,I was behind the goal [im sure it was uncovered ] and watched the fight unfurl. Big Billy was lucky not to be hit with a few missiles when he came on to the park ,im sure on the return journey we got the same train with smashed up windows and a few more bricks lobbed at us on our way out of Burnley,a crazy nightfor this 15 year old and I was glad to get back to the safety of 70s Glasgow. |

Over the next few weeks, I will be posting images and cuttings that were not used in the final edit of my book. I love this shot of the 19-man squad at the airport for the 1968 Casale Monferrato tour:

I have related this story on here before, but as my father-in-law is 90 next year, please humour me as I repeat it. At our first meeting, 32 years ago, the current Mrs BC warned me her dad was a bit shy and grumpy, "but he's good deep down". :rolleyes: Him: "Do you like gardening?" Me: "No, never had a garden". Pause. "Well, do you like football?" "I love football". "Who do you support?" "Celtic". "Bloody hell! They wrecked our town". Now, all those years later, he has been up to Parkhead a few times and we watch all the televised games on ESPN/BT together. We are now his second team, God bless him. burnleysuicidesquad.csc

Ano Remy, current players think if they put their number next to their sig that makes it ok. |
