neverlikedElvis Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Jim Cruikshanks Hearts were on a pre season tour in Europe & ended up staying in the same hotel as the British Athletics team. He was rooming with Drew Busby & they heard the shower going in the room below. Drew dangled Cruickshank out the window by the ankles, to try & get a swatch at Mary Peters in the buff (probably just to check that she was indeed a woman) Anyway, Drew dropped him & he sustained a bad ankle break which kept him out for a long time.

neave Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 Apparently when big Dave McPherson was at us, one of the training routines was to start at one byline with the ball, run forward and keep it up all the way to the other touchline, obviously to help control. What he used to do was flick the ball up and punt it as high and as far as he could, chase after it, wait til it came back down, punt it again and repeat the process until he had reached the other byline, touching the ball about 4 times.

bill duff Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 Can't remember which club the old man was with at the time, but another player played a prank on him at training. Whilst the prankster was in the shower bath, (my old man being a "joiner") went to his van and got his hammer and some nails and nailed the pranskters shoes to the floor. Rest of team mates were wetting themselves when the prankster tried to put his shoes on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
