Watching Aird,Aitken,Hall,Connelly,Pearson,at Muirton.

Great uefa cup nights and the captain of Hamburg saying we were the best team he had played against.

Four special trains to Hampden for the League Cup Final.

Alexanders buses running supporters busses every week to away games from the bus station.No booking in those days you just turned up and payed.Once the bus was full they phoned the garage in Riggs Road and got another one down to the bus station.

In the snooker hall Methven Street waiting for visiting fans coming from the train station.

In the middle of the old firm (at the toilets)under the enclosure singing saints songs.

Standing in the enclosure as saints are beating celtic 3-2 and the ref Tiny Wharton playing extra time until celtic scored.

Same ref at tyncastle for semi against Dunfermline and Freddie Aitken scored direct from a coner but Wharton did not give it.(pars won the replay)

getting a lift over the turnstyle at the Ice Rink end from my uncle

Watching from my house on the Dunkeld Road as they took down the one pole floodlights to put up the new ones and at the switch on against West Ham.

What a great place Muirton Park was.

That 3 - 2 defeat to St Mirren was the best fitba gemme I saw until the 3 - 1 Jimmy Bone Airdrie game.

Jackie Copland using his arm to clear a McCoist shot in the closing minutes and the ref gives a corner !

Going down to Arbroath around new year( maybe even New years day??) in a mini bus with a black bag full of celery.Singing the celery song all day long. Throwing celery out of the back of the mini bus at passing cars. At the game every time the ref gave a decision against Saints big bits of celery came flying onto the park. The linesman was pissing himself laughing.Great day out. I'll be ****ed if I can remember who won the game though.....:laugh:
