On This Date In History (George Orwell)
Twenty-two years ago today: Saturday 11 August 1984, Hibs 0-0 Celtic. First day of the season and a Hibs team that had failed to score in a pre-season that had included a 0-0 draw at home to Billy McNeill's Manchester City and a home 0-3 defeat to Newcastle United (in Jackie Mac's testimonial, George Best featured) took a point from Davie Hay's Celtic. This ended a run of nine successive league defeats by the Parkhead side, indeed our last points against them came from a 1-0 victory by Bertie Auld's team in February 1982.
Billy McNeill's name would crop up again that difficult season of 1984-85, the first season that my Dad took me and my wee brother to Easter Road on a regular basis. Five years ago today: Saturday 11 August 2001, Hibs 2-0 Aberdeen. Early goals going up the slope by Sauzee (penalty) and the lapdancer gave Hibs a fairly comfortable victory. The most memorable thing about the day was the 'you've got foot n mouth chant' that I started on the terracin. Even Neil Boyle laughed at that! I'd only recently moved back up, thanks to Zondervan gettin me a job at Scottish Spinsters, and hosted a flat-warming party at ma wee pad on Parlia-Mental Street that night. I left the Vicky early after the game and bought about half-a-dozen copies of the Pink News and made some cheese and crackers up, amongst other things for the nibbles (which Craven thinks is phuckin hilarious!). Was a good night, ma flat stank like Boab Marley's ashtray, Moodz (as ever!) lead a rousing chorus of Dean Martin's 'That's Franck Sauzee' but when Boyle left (at about 3am) he only sent up a couple of Roger Moores from nearby Coalhill! The twat! |

There's quite a few on here who can though. Some of the admins are class writers as i'm sure are some others. I pm's someone on here about doing this sort of book ages ago but never heard owt else, canny mind who. This is the kind of thing that a 'vanity' publishing deal could work for i.e you get some copies printed yourself and punt them yourself online etc. It wouldn't make anyone a millionaire but it could raise maybe 50 grand for dnipro or another worthy cause.
