TyphoonJambo Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 On the beeb now that a load of players are calling self isolating fans. So, who, from the club, past or present, would you like a call from? I will start with Billy Brown. I would love to hear the details if just how bad it kicked off in the changing room after 5-1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OTT Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 I saw the Peterborough owner was doing group skype calls with what looked like a collection of older fans. Really nice gesture from him and great way to reach out to those likely to be most alone at this time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milky_26 Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 people have said that if they bumped into dave mackay when he was still with us that he would talk football and was a gent. so a chat with him would have been great can't believe it is 5 years since his death Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jambo 4 Ever Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 I think our senior players should be calling our season ticket holders who are over 65 not like they have anything else to do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meadows Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 Reading this makes me realise I’m very fortunate in that I’ve had one to one chats with Donald Ford, Drew Busby, Robbo, Rudi , Dave Mckay , Stefano and others. Of the current first team I’d like a chat with Naismith firstly , then Sean Clare to find out about his emotions after his red card .

I spoke to Cruiky at the Craigroyston summer play scheme when im sure he purposely dived the wrong way for my penalty. He was my hero then but when he turned round, half way through a game and asked us to find out what won the 3-15 at musselburgh one day, he became my own personal pal.

martoon Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 Robbo for me. From the past (once he'd got his head around the concept of the telephone) Tam Purdie. He was there right from the start in 1874. Hated the Hibernians, apparently. Good man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
