Burnley Celt
11 Nov 2013, 12:50 PM
^^^^

Jeez, I'm older than you. My first cup final was the Dunfermline 3-2 game and my first Euro night was against FC Zurich in 1966.
Older than me!!!! Burnley Celt is 60 today - Compared to me bc is so :davieweir: :davieweir: :davieweir:


"Happy Birthday auldyin." :clap: :clap:


First Euro night for me was Vojvodina - I was taken as a 6th Birthday present as the game was two days later - I may have been at Nantes but don't remember that tbh.

Strange the things that stick in your subconscious - I remember that night the pandemonium re Charlie Gallagher's corner and Cesar scoring - Then coming away holding my Da's hand and he meets his mate Denis McEneny who owned The Glen Bar in Rutherglen when R/glen had real Celtic boozers - Denis's brother was Bernard of Benny's bar in the Gorbals infamy - Anyway we are just out the gate about 20 yards out the ground and Denis says "Had the Rosary out the night Willie" - I look and he still has The Rosary wrapped around his knuckles - I was like :rubeyes: in my own wee mind - That is the way they were in those days.

To this day I can still remember that moment and that night - Standing in the damp atmosphere with all the Celtic hustle and bustle of leaving a game (not even realising the importance of winning that game) and looking at the Floodlights with the glow they used to have over the place,looking up to my Da God Bless Him and thinking to myself "THIS is magic and THIS is a magical place". :rocker: :clover: :huddle:
Thats a great wee story mate. Those of us fortunate enough to know the old celtic park can relate to the magic of European nights under the floodlights. My nana and granda lived on Duke street and the walk down from there to paradise was something else. No matter how many times we did it my granda always pointed out the boot, ball and goals in the cobbles between Camlachie street and Gallowgate.

Happy days
The checking of the cobbles became part of our game ritual when we were old enough to start going on our own - Amazing the things you remember - The story I was told was that a workie was supposed to have done it as a tribute to John Thomson but have no idea if that is true or not.

Probably unlikely but I would like to think when it was being dug up that a Tim took out the set of cobbles in one and they are still around somewhere.

Any chance of bumping it Moch? And, yes we were told that it was in tribute to John Thompson.

After that we got parked outside the grange with a packet of crisps and can of ginger while dad, uncle and granda had a swally.

I've only heard the same as you. They were lifted, reverently, and placed elsewhere.

Anyhoo Back on topic.

Is this the Macari (the hair) at Firhill naw it's Bertie (the chin) at Firhill that was never quite decided upon?


It is a belter of an image. :thumbsup:

It's Simpson - Think that was one of the reasons we started to veer more towards it being Ten Thirty or somebody else? - Honestly don't know if it was ever resolved.
