Popular Post Mark Albrighton Posted November 10, 2022 VT Supporter Popular Post Share Posted November 10, 2022 I couldn’t find a suitable thread, but I thought we could have one for daft moments from the game. Not quite “the game’s gone” stuff, more like terrible misses, unusual moments of play, maybe some stupid quotes from managers, whatever. Think clips that would appear on a 90’s Nick Hancock football video or Fantasy Football League. I expect Ronnie’s miss at Villa Park will make an appearance shortly. Kicking it off with this miss that I have never seen before today. And, stealing one that I first saw in a Nick Hancock video, Mr Devine’s infamous penalty. 2 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom13 Posted November 11, 2022 Share Posted November 11, 2022 (edited) What about this classic, can laugh about it as he was ok. Gotta love the Europa League Edited November 11, 2022 by Tom13 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarethRDR Posted November 11, 2022 Share Posted November 11, 2022 Got the below on VHS one Christmas, many many moons ago. A veritable treasure trove (and yes, I believe Ronnie's miss is in there somewhere if I remember rightly). Ah, memories. TRIGGER WARNING: Danny Baker. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, I've heard that Hearts supporters are just rangers fans without the bus fare ? Happy to be corrected and isn't a wind up. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, I've heard that Hearts supporters are just rangers fans without the bus fare ? Happy to be corrected and isn't a wind up. Thanks. You are correct in that our club was formed from Irish immigrants in 1875 ( hence the name ) However any sectarian chants and clinging on to the Irish heritage died out many many decades ago. It is the same with Hearts fans and their allegiance to the protestant cause.. Both teams have their "ultra" groups ( wee laddies) which have around 100 in their numbers who at certain games try to be like mini Celts and 'gers ( local derbies , us v Rangers and Hearts v Celtic) and try to bring up the Catholic v Protestant issue without any understanding about any of the history. However 99.9% of the rest of the fans of both clubs have nothing to do with it. At other games there is no sectarian issues at all. Certainly at Ibrox and Celtic Park to an extent ( and when they both travel away) you will hear a large part of their crowd singing sectarian songs and chants . Look at the tifo Celtic fans had around half the ground at Livingston last Sunday, all dedicated to the 1916 Easter Rising. Scotland has just passed new laws relating to hate and sectarian crime and as Ally McCoist said today that it looks like he and 48,000 others will be arrested at Ibroke next Sunday when they entertain Celtic.
