yep - was the Duncan Mc Kenzie show. He took fearful abuse from us about his wife but scored the winner and tossed the vics all round the ground to celebrate :lol:

I can remember 90% of the Everton fans had left the ground with twenty minutes to go, they were escaping over the wall at the back of the Bob Bank like rats getting off a sinking ship.

Mind you it was mental down there those days and in the peak of full on hoolie days. :old:

They were dropping bricks from the bridge by Ninian Park Halt until I heard a big roar, I can only guess what happened then but you used to be able to get to the tracks from by where the Car Sales place is, many a time I saw a mob run up that way followed by coppers with dogs.
