weeyin Posted April 20, 2011 Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 Lost on penalties when "Softy" hit the bar when we were in the Rangers end. Underside of the bar at that. Glad to see the back of those square goals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

delboy Posted April 20, 2011 Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 was that the league cup semi with the pass back that buzz picked up to be fair he didn't have much choice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fat_tony Posted April 20, 2011 Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 was that the league cup semi with the pass back that buzz picked up There wasn't a lot else he could do about it...Corrigan fairly fizzed it towards goal! A real shame as it was a great season for both players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steelboy Posted April 20, 2011 Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 is it that hard to figure out that the side closest to parkhead is the celtic end and the end closer to ibrox the rangers end? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sbcmfc Posted April 20, 2011 Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 is it that hard to figure out that the side closest to parkhead is the celtic end and the end closer to ibrox the rangers end? Or the side we sit In when we play Celtic is the rangers end, and when we play rangers is the Celtic end. I certainly have fonder memories of "the rangers end", 1991 semi and final, last Saturday, only loss was 2006 cis semi. I've seen us lose to rangers 3 times from the "Celtic end".

fatcalf Posted April 20, 2011 Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 I'm quite proud of the fact I have no idea which end at Hampden is the Celtic or Rangers end... Used to be simple, Celtic end was uncovered, maybe that's where the paranoia started. Oh and I've seen us beat by Airdire whilst in the Celtic end although the main body of both supports were housed up the other end if memory serves me right. So basically we only win when we're in the Rangers end, that right? And even then it's nowhere near all the time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Special aka Posted April 20, 2011 Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 ............... Oh and I've seen us beat by Airdire whilst in the Celtic end although the main body of both supports were housed up the other end if memory serves me right. .................. Was in the old North Stand for both Airdrie games, but the bulk of the Motherwell support was in the Mount Florida End, as was the smaller Airdrie support - over the fence though.

MJC_MKI Posted April 20, 2011 Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 Used to be simple, Celtic end was uncovered, maybe that's where the paranoia started. Funnily enough, I used to drink with this boy in the Railway Tavern and his dad said that the reason the Celtic end at Hampden was uncovered was because of 'sinister reasons'. His theory was that the establishment of Great Britain saw the Irish immigrants as being dirty and unwashed, so therefore the SFA put the Celtic fans in the uncovered end because they needed to be soaked by the rain because in their eyes, the Celtic fans, being of Irish Catholic background were naturally dirty and unwashed. And the funniest part of that was that he actually believed it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daver Posted April 22, 2011 Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 No idea how true it is, but I was told a long time ago that Rangers made a financial contribution to the construction of the roof at the 'Rangers end' which was why it was built and the other end wasn't.

TheLip69 Posted April 22, 2011 Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 Oddly enough back in the 70's and 80's Parkhead was totally covered at the Rangers end, but the roof at the Celtic end only came out to about halfway down the terracing.
