Craigieboy Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 I know Robbo has been done to death. But these two made up my childhood memories of watching Hearts. We were actually very lucky to get JC when you think of the player he became. Robbo. Well, what can you say? "Sign the contract now or you'll never sign for hibs". Discuss.

Floyd Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 Not only great players but very intelligent to boot,IMO JC is a very eloquent individual who was always very polite whenever I had the good fortune to speak to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo Bill Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 It's amazing to think too that both of them, plus the likes of MacKay, Berry, Smith, Levein, McPherson etc were there right up to the first Jim Jefferies era. Great players, great teams, great times. Should've won the league in '86. Could've won the league in '88, but for a terrible run of draws over Christmas. Should've won the Scottish Cup in 1986, 1987 and 1988. And a ball-hair away from bringing Diego Maradona's Napoli to Tynecastle in '89. Hundreds of goals, dozens of great games and a multitude of wins over Alan Sneddon, Mickey Weir and co. They have my respect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CBjambo Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 I used to love that strip. My oldest strip, except for a '73 top... was my dads. Hanging in the wardrobe now... Tops in year order, sad but rewarding also! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davemclaren Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 Both great players for us. When Robbo first played for us the expectation among the fans was that he would score with every touch...to get, and keep. a striker like him is pretty rare.
