Narrative Arc

Did we invent the twirl? Sure we could claim to be the first in Scotland but were we the first ever?

It always seems to be done in accompaniment to the tune of "Hey Jude", but surely it doesn't date back to 1968. Any ideas?

Man Utd 1975.

It was originally to camouflage the throwing of missiles at the game or should I say the people throwing them.

The twirly, like the atmosphere at tynie, has gone for the moment, after 2 years of Vlad destruction. I'm sure it will be back though, good times lie ahead of us I'm sure! :)

sorry but the best "gorgie windmill" I wae ever part of was the first home game of the season 86-87 against smeltic,,, from where the old stand joined to the away end(gorgie rd) right round to the other side where the home end joined the other side of the away end, it seemed every man ,woman & child that was in the home end done the windmill in sheer defience to the cheating let us score 5 & we will pay you lots of cash, smeltic players & fans where given hell that day, & quite rightly so.
