No you're alright. Was just having a wee reminisce this afternoon and remember him at the football. As a youngster that used to stand with the "choir", fatman was a bit of a legend. Hope he is doing OK.

Does anyone remember (or indeed know), the guy that used to go to the football in the very early 80's that was called Fatman. Used to be a bit of a legend on the terracing of Muirton Park.

Was their granny fit??

Just to add.....this is not a new thing, its been going on for years, its just talked about more now because of social media etc. And I don’t condone it before anyone starts, just merely pointing out that youngads have been "misbehaving" at football for years.

I remember early 80s, some of the antics we used to get up to was far worse than this (not that I agree with spitting, smaahing up seats etc). 2 games spring to mind.....Raith Rovers away, a few lads climbed onto the metal railings on the roof, swung over to the home support and hanging from the beams started kicking the away fans. Funny as to see it. Falkirk away. About 30 of us got the train down, stopped off in Stirling and ran amok round the town. After the game, running battles with the Falkirk support back to the station then they bricked the train. We stopped off in Stirling again and had running battles with the Stirling boys only for the police to wait till it was all over then come in and nick the lot of us. As 16/17 year olds we thought it was a brilliant day out. Away days back then were always better than home games.
