Gorgiewave Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 After the Rangers game on the last day of the season in 1997 (we won 3-1, all the goals in the last ten minutes, Robertson broke the league scoring record), somebody in Gorgie Road said somebody had been stabbed in the head at the game. I've never heard it mentioned again so probably not true. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jake Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 First Hearts game abroad to Paris. First time abroad. Gathering under the Eiffel Tower and a Hearts supporter starting to climb it. Police pulled their guns out Ouzi sub machine guns I think. Was a shock to see that . Same trip the Hearts support singing to the police at Dover they had a head like a penis. Same trip on the way back the bus having a big fall out (mercer bus) Tannadice during the miners strike when we were a right shower. The guy who came aboard the mercer bus telling everyone about sex with a bird while wearing bin bags. He was part of a few boys who travelled on the mercer buses who were batshit . Celtic away after a draw that saw us go home with no windows but the above group handed out some delightful punishment to said vandals. Pittodrie away where one crazy Hearts supporter took on the casual element and they bottled it. The doing handed out to the neo nazis at the top of mcleod street who were giving it to those collecting for striking miners. The Hearrs support allowing Aberdeen scarferz past and totalling their casuals at the Gorgie end . There is so many crazy times that I could go on and on. Glad I was young watching Hearts back then.

Deodato Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 The Shed was home to my craziest memories. I remember, as a kid, waiting for the game to begin in the shed and an argument broke out between some union jack waving Hearts fans from Livingstone and a Scottish nationalist Hearts fan who was there with his girlfriend. It kicked off and got really ugly. The leader of the Livingstone mob's tactic for resolving the heated dispute was to pull out his cock and piss all over his opposite number and his girlfriend. I didn't stay around to watch what happened after that, but I'm pretty sure the police did. Kicked off. Also, I remember the pisser around the back of The Shed not because I was brave enough to go there but when you looked up the slope of the shed you could see the steam rising. The shed pissed was home to plants that couldn't grow in the Botanics. Unreal, looking back at it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy in Bordeaux dressed as Del Boy complete with sheepskin and suitcase. Jambos queueing up to be frisked by gorgeous female cop in Stuttgart. Refusing all pleas by male cops to move along.

Deodato Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 Also remember boozing in some place on Hannover Street called Grand Cru (or Gran Cru) on a Saturday night and being cleared out well after 1am, only to see George Burley propping up the bar. Okay, nothing special, other than we were away to Falkirk at 12.30am the next (sorry, same) day. We drew that one 2-2 I believe, Andy Webster saving us on numerous occasions. The rest is history.

Captain Canada Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 (edited) Being in Prague aged 16 in a massive pub when the local police came in demanding we pay money for some other supposed fans who'd done a runner. Same trip - local ladies of the night doing naked gymnastics in the hotel bar and everyone singing 'Walking on broken glass' on account of the number of drinks that had been knocked over. The two things were maybe related but I can't remember as it was a long time ago! I flew on the team plane to and from Prague and it was safe to say Joe Jordan didn't seem popular at all with the players. I also remember Jimmy Sandison making a clearance into the old benches area and the ball flying straight into the pie stall.

Craig Herbertson Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 (edited) Paris St. Germain v Hearts 1984 UEFA Cup. First sight of policemen with machine guns pointed worryingly in our direction. Would have coped with this if our chaps hadn't been attacked in the underground by Parisian ultras carrying knives on the underground. Escaped on to the train to be hit with a lethal gas cannister as the doors closed. Ensuing panic. Was just relaxing after all the excitment when I noticed we two were the only Hearts fan in our section among thousands of upset french chaps. Rumblings around us as some random Hearts fan stood up a few seats away and began to abuse the St Germaine team, then all the fans around him, then France and the French. Amazingly he wasn't even lifted despite keeping up a tirade for the whole first half. Edited January 2, 2020 by Craig Herbertson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Debut 4 Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 On a similar type thread years ago a poster recalls a game in the 70s when a fan turned up wearing a pinny. After a few minutes of funny looks he had went into a rant about it not being his turn to do the dishes😂 so he sneaked away to the game. (Original poster’s story is better)......... Game at Tynie v Celtic, mid 90s. Celtic fan had been giving it large in the direction of the Hearts fans as he walked to the Gorgie End. Just as we got to the Tynie Arms, a JT walking in the crowd minding his own business eating a chippie, threw out a right hook and got the boy flush as he stood on the kerb. The JT didn’t even look up and just kept on walking eating his scran 😂😂😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
