A game I remember was Christmas Eve at Gayfield, Arbroath.  We won 7-0 and Busby and Willie Gibson both bagged hat-tricks.

 

 

By the light, of the silvery moon!!!  

 

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas!

Indeed Colin!

 

Pretty sure too that the players that day were promised a crate of whisky (Whyte & Mackay?) by the sponsors, for scoring a hat-trick?

 

Rings in my mind that Busby (our usual penalty taker) already had his 3 goals so, when we were awarded a penalty he passed the honour to Gibson?

 

That might of course, be a lot of shite!  :lol:

He actually played against us later for Morton. Kicked everything that moved. Couldny change style if he tried??

Remenber that. He certainly went right through Alex MacDonald.

Not before time, one of our own that lived the dream and was a right good player too . I don’t think it was coincidence that we got relegated after he retired.

John Gallagher was nae Alan Anderson.

Bloody chuffed to bits for the both of them. Well deserved and long overdue imho.

If only we could have afforded Drew Jarvie with Busby. I don't think we would have got relegated.

He said that MacDonald was trying to take the mick.out of him. Busby was ordered by Benny Rooney to stick to MacDonald like glue. MacDonald started saying to Busby ' Here Fido'...Busby thought ' I'll fekin' Here Fido you!' and took him out! ☺

My old man always said the same that Jarvie and Busby we’re immense together at Airdrie .
