SectionDJambo Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 37 minutes ago, Maroon Sailor said: Dave Clunie of Hearts with Davie Robb of Aberdeen. Robb was a stalwart for Aberdeen for a long time. Clunie never really recovered from allowing Arthur Duncan to run away from him to score the winner for Hibs in a cup tie at Tynecastle. Decent player though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's who I think as well but with Hegarty and Winchester in the photo I cannot recollect we ever played with 3 strikers.

Doesn't look much like him but it must be right enough (and now I see from other posts that it might not be - in fact it looks nothing like him).

Easily identified because it was the game they wore green sleeves to contrast with our Ajax strip. We'll say nothing about the next derby.

Beast Boy Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 On a related topic; I used to really enjoy when @Morgan did his “Oldies” threads. Even when the topic was before my time, I enjoyed reading the memories and views of Hearts supporters, about players I had only read about, or seen limited footage of. It would be nice if we had an “Oldies” sub-forum, for that sort of thing. I seriously doubt such a suggestion will gain much momentum coming from me tbh, so maybe someone who agrees with me, but doesn’t automatically set off steel shutters in the minds of the powers that be could make a case for it? cheers.
