I thought this was probably the best away celebration ever, only being topped after that goal in 1980 at Ninian Park
I'm sure I was at the back of the Bob bank when Wayne Hughes touched the ball and by the fence pitchside at the end
Happy days

The absence of pot bellied middle aged blokes wearing club shirts with players names on their backs, rattles and bobble hats.

Haven’t read through the whole thread, so not sure if anyone else has made this point, but to me, after reading your opening post, why have you called it “the bad old days”?
Re: Things You Miss From 'The Bad Old Days'

Sounds like a few of our previous managers.

I took it as a combination of us being shit and the whole experience being a bit naughtier

Same season away to Northampton on a Friday night. Roger Gibbins come over asking the fans to calm down and stop invading the pitch. Luckily for him we didnt score any more.:hehe:

Standing in the Bob Bank watching and waiting for the blocks of casuals in the Grandstand to give it some...

Ok, memory not as good these days. Yep I've got picks of Ian Gibson scoring.

The absence of fat pot bellied middle aged blokes dressed as an 80s casual. 😂😂

That is really sad to see. Blokes approaching 50 or older geared up for the football and getting it wrong.

Because it's a phrase sometimes used by City fans who have the opinion that when we were really shit with poor attendances and we had to piss up against a wall next to the place where they sold food, as well as the regular tear ups, that everything was awful and things are so much better now that it's so much more civilised and serious. Some things are better, alot of things aren't in my opinion. I loved taking a piss to the smell of hotdogs are fried onions :thumbup:

On the subject of smells..... smoking. I have never and will never smoke and I am all for the smoking ban, but the smell of mud and fags is just pure football.

Agreed. I used to smoke up, given up almost a year now. Agree with you about the smoking ban and would've when i smoked, it must've been awful for non smokers in pubs etc. The only problem with the smoking ban in pubs is that it used to mask the smell of the stinking carpet, people and beer farts, and the toilets. I'm not sure which is worse for a persons health :hehe:

I thnk the interview started about a upcoming game vs Galatasaray.
He was asked if he was worried about he hostile atmosphere, he replied "No, I've played at Ninian Park!"

I've never seen so many coked up, pissed up absolute fruit bat loonies as i've seen at that game. I'd say that two thirds of the crowd were either pissed or on one.
